What visitors say
Just had our wedding at The Exchange 1856 and we can't praise it highly enough. Tracy, our wedding coordinator, was fantastic from start to finish and helped make it a truly special day. The venue is beautiful and the loft space for the ceremony is spectacular. The food was superb and all of the staff were excellent. Can't recommend this place highly enough if you are looking for the perfect venue for your wedding day.

Great little venue, well kept, clean tidy and in fairness for a gig the prices for drinks wasnt to extortionate. The bar next door is a lovely place too with a lush outdoor seating area. Great night watching the tumbling Paddies.

Brilliant place to DJ... Mark was a massive help. The manageress was brilliant as well (really sorry but I couldn't hear your name, as the music was that loud and I'm that deaf lol). The blonde lass was brilliant and the tall laddo was a big help as well. Sorry, I didn't catch your names either but I would highly recommend anyone to DJ here or hire the venue. Hope to DJ here again soon Kind regards, Mark

Interesting venue, not sure what it was before its current roll. I attended an event at the very top of the building. The room was light, airy and spacious and perfect for the session. A bit difficult to navigate your way round the building and finding a toilet was a challenge. I did not have a hot drink but I do not think non-dairy alternatives were available - maybe I should have asked.
