Exchange Coffee Company in Craven

Great coffee. Staff pointed me the upstairs seating area and we're friendly and professional.

My wife and I visit this shop, every year, and have a daily morning flat white (apart from the days it's closed). Every single day I ask myself the same question: why doesn't every coffee shop make drinks this good? So many shops, including the chains, seem to overcharge for an inferior brew. This is not just the best coffee shop in Skipton, it may well be the best in the country.

An individual shop and café. Staff are friendly and polite and take care of their customers well. Such a relaxed, easy going atmosphere. Super coffee, roasted in situ - lovely.

Great choice of speciality coffees. If you want ground coffee they will grind it to your preference. They have a loyalty card.

Lovely cafe, it's of choice. Dog friendly with lovely service

Very disappointed after reading all the 5 * reviews. You have to walk through the shop to get to the café. Staff behind the counter did not respond to our Good Morning! just ignored us. The steps to the cafe are VERY steep and could be awkward for some people. First impression is of a very small and dismal seating area with jut one small window, about room for 13/14 people close together. The menus are good, clear and well presented. The service was poor. It was not that we had to wait long it was the waitress, She arrived at the table with pad in hand and just stood there, no greeting, not what would you like just silence. We gave our order and she just walked away!! to return shortly with our order, just placed on table and departed. Again no speech. The specialist coffee was excellent, but very expensive, £8 for no more than 4 mouths-full, but it was good. The food was good also. When you leave, you are required to pay downstairs in the shop, no complaint about the principle of that, but the young man behind the counter had no idea what we had ordered or what the prices were. We had to wait until our silent waitress appeared to show him what to do. Conclusion: Food and drink excellent. service and atmosphere leave a lot to be desired.

Drinks are not worth the price, service is good but the drinks are average nothing special. I asked for tea and I got milk

Fantastic coffee and ambience. Drawn in by the smell of coffee beans being roasted on the premises. Friendly and polite service. One of the best coffee shops in the world!

Really happy to find this on a walk around Skipton. Fantastic range of tea and coffee (and cakes). Very much looking forward to going back... There are about 50 more types of tea for me to try!

Always good for loose leaf tea, which we buy regularly, Skipton Water blend, good strong brew, always have a takeaway Coffee, which is also good, I would go as far to say, best in Skipton

Lovely place and atmosphere, great coffee. Stumbled across it by accident but very happy to have found it

Relaxing cafe and shop specialising in world teas and coffees. Beans or ground on the premises. Independent.

Today's lucky find...a dog-friendly, atmospheric and very reasonably priced little coffee cafe with friendly, fast and helpful staff. Loved my Caffe Borgia and marmite cheese scone. I'll be back to explore the shop area next.

Like coffee? Half close your eyes, let the bell as you push open the door at Exchange Coffee take you to dreamland! Seriously, easily the most delicious and very reasonably priced cups/cafetières/drippers(!) to be found in Skipton, only a short walk from the town centre, made with a wonderful freshly ground range of different coffees from around the world - all available to buy too (they also do a fantastic range of teas)

I have rarely found such a great coffee shop. And I've been around a bit. The decor is traditional, reminiscent of times past. Simply put, the cappuccino is the best I ever had. My daughter's hot chocolate was delightful and the croissants perfect. All put together by lovely staff who obviously care. And it's not expensive. Fantastic.

Only a little way out of town but with the trip for the excellent coffee selection. An absolute gem

This place is brilliant! They roast their own beans, and have a very wide selection. They will grind whatever beans you want for your chosen cup or cafetière - which each have very different coffee taste, so that’s great. You can then buy beans (or they will grind them to your desired grind for you). They also sell loose leaf tea, and equipment. The cafe is up a spiral staircase, and is a quirky mix of seating areas. Loved it! They also have shops in Blackburn and Clitheroe, and do mail order.

Lovely coffee, very reasonably priced. Cafe upstairs is cute and cosy, friendly staff. It's quite a dark cafe so sometimes can look closed at first glance from a distance. Give them a go.

A lovely little shop/coffee house. Fantastic coffee and tasty treats. Don't go looking for a full English or a lunch - do go for an excellent flat white in beautiful relaxed surroundings.

Lovely coffee served the way I asked for it . Been several times now only downside parking is only for 20 mins outside cafe .

Very good and huge range of coffee and tea. Always a plus to be dog friendly and loved the Morris decor.

Stopped here on the way from Settle to Birmingham for some good coffee and were not disappointed. Mindboggling selection of coffee. We went for the Skipton blend, and it tastes fantastic! Would heartily recommend.

This is a delightful little coffee shop - the smell of the roasting coffee is so attractive and the cosy upstairs room is a very pleasant place to stop and enjoy delicious coffee and cake. I came upon it by chance and I’m so glad I stopped.

Lovely staff and the choice of coffees and teas is just mind-boggling!

Only parked outside, but in terms of kerb appeal it certainly had a smart and attractive frontage.

Lovely little coffee shop great prices

Delicious coffee and great variety of tea/coffee goods for sale

Coffee lovers must visit this shop!

Not enough words to describe what a gem this really is. Skipton is very lucky to have this traditional coffee shop and roaster. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff who always have time for a chat.

Can't believe I've lived near Skipton for so long and didn't know about this little gem. Sells everything you need for making the best specialist tea and coffee. Everything from coffee beans (roasted in house), ground coffee, filter machines, grinders, the lot. Highly recommended.

Great coffee, friendly staff and really fun to watch the coffee roaster in action!

Came across this lovely little coffee house on our way out of Skipton. Stopped for a coffee which was delicious. One of the best lattes we've had. Better than any chain coffee.

Fine selection of teas and coffees. Knowledgeable staff. Popular spot to pick up a takeaway coffee, limited seating.

What an amazing gem of a place. Mainly looks like it just sells coffee beans and grounds but their takeout coffee is to die for!

Search a choice of coffees and teas. Took my own cinnamon powder for my cappuccino, but, hey, such a minor point. Aromatic as can be. It's like going into your Granny's kitchen. Loved it.

Great choice of coffee and we loved the clever drip! The little room upstairs to sit and enjoy the coffee and tea was so cozy. We were in Skipton visiting relatives and loved it so much we took our family in a couple of times. We will be back when we are in Skipton again.

What a treasure trove. Wonderful coffee at reasonable prices in a fantastic setting with the aroma of roasting beans wafting around. So many great coffees to choose from to take home. Friendly and efficient service.

Excellent and varied selection of beans which can be ground as required if necessary.Helpful and friendly service and a quiet seating area outside.Cant recommend it highly enough.

What a lovely little shop. Helpful and good advice on coffee beans. We had a sample of flavours. I'll go there again.

Lovely coffee shop, staff are always friendly and the coffee is always good.

Nice quirky coffee shop with a great smell of roasted coffee (roasted on the premises) and a wide selection of coffees and teas.

Brilliant coffee, lovely warm welcome

An excellent coffee shop that roasts all its range of coffee on the premises.

Brilliant little coffee shop that roasts its own coffee. Very relaxing with friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Having visited Exchange in Clitheroe we had high expectations which unfortunately weren’t met. The coffee was its usual very good standard but the food offering was very limited. The toast was fine but there wasn’t much else to choose from.

En-route from Halifax to The Lakes I was on a mission for a great cup of coffee and finding it challenging. I was lucky to spot this gem as I drove through beautiful Skipton. Not only was the coffee spot on, I was tempted by a delicious Chorley cake - my first ever! The only reason I am not giving an 'excellent' rating is because I was left floundering when entering the shop, not realising the indoor tables were upstairs. I expect it was my lack of much needed caffeine that left me confused by no apparent signage and that was soon rectified.

Lovely little shop, well worth a visit. Bought a full set of 'Wiliam Morris' mugs there at a great price.

On a visit to Skipton, parked the car ready to walk our dogs we came across the Exchange coffee company's cafe where we asked if we could take our dogs in for a coffee. The two staff members could not have been more welcoming or friendly and the coffee was amazing. Thank you so much for making us and our dogs so welcome

My very fave shop for all things coffee and tea.

Great service, great coffee & great decor.. oh and a lovely fruit scone with jam and cream..

Great coffee shop. Roast their own, very knowledgeable with loads of different beans. They also serve coffee too with tables outside and take away.

Lovely coffee with plenty of blends to choose from. Great price too

Good, traditional coffee shop with a good few tasty coffees and teas.

Always nice to buy tea or coffee from here as each member of staff is knowledgeable and knows a lot about tea/coffee!

Después de visitar a unos amigos en la zona decidimos entrar a tomar un café antes de ir a casa y estamos tan contentos que hicimos! Conseguimos aparcar nuestro coche justo fuera de la puerta y al entrar en nuestra primera impresión fue de una tienda cálida de café con una diferencia.Una tienda con encanto decoradas con buen gusto en el que no sólo puede beber café, pero ver lo preparan de bean de taza. El director encantador, Anne, nos dio una cálida bienvenida y nos mostró a una mesa en la sección de arriba de la tienda, donde tomamos nuestros asientos y hojear el menú, que debo decir que fue extremadamente variada.Anne tomó nuestra orden y volvió unos minutos más tarde con nuestro café recién hecho y un bollo/t - pastel. La Sra.. una taza de sumatra ordenados azul y yo opté por un capuchino (no recuerdo cual fue hecho de bean). Ambos eran absolutamente increíble. en gusto, mucho mejor que 'empaquetados' de la estanterías!Nos sentamos en un sofá cómoda con vistas a la calle, disfrutando de nuestras órdenes y leer los periódicos locales gratis.Después de que habíamos terminado volvimos abajo y levantase el expuesto pero antes artículos dejando, Anne explicó el proceso de café tostado en gran detalle, que disfruté muchísimo, nunca me di cuenta de que un grano de café tiene un sabor tipo de cacahuate, esperaba que el sabor de café :-)La máquina de tostar y ella explicó cómo el frijoles tostados y cómo, si estaban "asado" el café tendría un sabor muy amargo, que no lo sé.Antes de salir, compramos café recién molido para casa y acabo de pasar mi primera taza. . 'El Salvador'. . Absolutamente DELICIOSA!. !Sin duda volveré la próxima vez que estemos en la zona, y se realizar un pedido desde su página web para entrega en los próximos días.Gracias Anne por efectuar nuestra primera visita sea memorable. .Era la primera vez que hemos intentado en y

Nicr place with lots of different coffee blends
