Very good as usual. Only let down was that the parking lot is now gone. Very hard to find parking and didn’t want to pay $10 to park across the street.
Lunch with a neighbor who just happens to enjoy a great bottle of Napa Cab. Lobster sliders were excellent. Waiter was perfect!
Had a lovely breakfast with a friend. The egg white kale scramble was super yummy and I love their tea selection. I went with the mint julep which was amazing!
One of my fave restaurants in Tampa!
A bit noisy at times but the general ambience and quality of food is great!
Just wish they were open for dinner!
Even with a reservation. The wait was much too long. Over 30 mins.
Beautiful place, food is delicious, coffee is amazing...very noisy when it’s full, which is every weekend 😊 make a reservation.
Overall unfortunately underwhelmed. Very cool place to hangout with a hip foodhall / marketplace vibe. Heard so many great things and I could understand the appeal. However the food was very disappointing. Flatbread was hard and stale like cardboard. Salad tasted like it was premade and sitting in dressing in the fridge then plated, rather than tossed fresh to order. Kind of blah. Sweet potato fries were cold. The food definitely looks better in instagram photos than it actually tastes. I’d go back to walk around and grab a coffee or tea, or buy hipster specs at Warby Parker, but will not return to dine.
We had the best possible experience at the Oxford exchange on Saturday. Despite our mistake on the reservation time involvong a large party, the manager Steven and all of his staff quietly and completely accommodated our potential crisis and told us to enjoy ourselves and everything would be taken care of; and it was! Our special occasion went off without a hitch, and we were treated with the utmost of respect. The staff at the Oxford exchange exhibited the highest level of decorum, grace and customer service that amounted to fabulous customer service. Thank you so much, Oxford exchange!
Would be 5 stars but they forgot my buddies espresso and oysters... can’t let that happen
Great place for a casual get-together or business meal. Oxford Exchange never disappoints!
Loved it. Great vegetarian options!
Visiting Tampa and really liked this place. As its name suggests (exchange), it’s a little marketplace with great food, coffee, books, and other trinkets. Great decor/atmosphere and our lunch didn’t disappoint. Menu puts a sophisticated spin on most (all?) sandwiches, etc... so perhaps not the best for kids... but otherwise, a great place to have a meal and poke around. Definitely recommend!
Love the building. Our server was exceptional! Food was delicious and we had an overall very enjoyable experience.
I have already spread the word to several friends!
We will return! Thank you
Great restaurant with wonderful food and charming servers. The only downside is the noise level when the restaurant is busy; it is wicked loud. If anyone wears a hearing aid; don’t even try! The crowd is definitely younger though.
Nikko is the best waiter. We always ask for him and have the best experience
One of our absolute favorites. The menu is amazing; haven't had anything we didn't love. The Observatory space is a unique room with great ambiance. Love the various textures and design throughout the restaurant/bar/space. Always have had top-notch service. All of the above make the overall experience worth the drive and money....and one of the locations we are looking at for our wedding.
Place is always great! Always good vibes flowing from the second you walk in!
It was great! I tried the chocolate chip pancakes. Loved the ambiance. I just wish they had a lot more options on their menu. The staff was very polite and prompt.
Oxford Exchange is always a great dining experience.
We went for brunch on a Saturday and were seating promptly at our reservation time. The booth seats have become quite worn from the time we visited, which was soon after the restaurant first opened, and it wasn't very comfortable seating. The noise level was very loud and conversation was a little hard.
Brunch has an eclectic menu. My Brunch Flatbread was interesting, but I would not order it again. The Earl Grey Creme iced was delicious.
Interesting location, ambiance, and menu. Wait staff quick but didn’t feel as if they were interested in anything other than rapid turn over if tables. It was hard to finish a sentence. They would ask what you want and then disappear before everyone at table acknowledged.
Great place but didn’t feel welcome for the above reason
I met up with a friend from college at OE in a Friday afternoon. The building was bustling with activity (wedding deliveries, people shopping, dining and enjoy some coffee drinks at the coffee bar). I was able to park in the lot across the street for free since I had arrived after 3pm! Our reservation was at 4 (for light fare) and everything was fantastic. We ordered the flatbread, club sandwich, avocado wedges, and sweet potato fries. My friend had a margarita and I chose the French 75. Everything was fantastic! The next time I am in Tampa—I hope to be back!
Love the food and the service is very good, but it is super-noisy. Not very conducive to conversation.
Always a delicious, fun, energetic, beautiful environment -- we repeat again and again and it's always excellent!
This is my second visit to OE. My first time there was amazing. The lobster sliders and Mahi tacos were superb. My second visit was Easter Sunday. The menu was different - disappointment #1. Pescatarian options were limited. I ordered the only two options available and the food was not what I expected. The grouper bites were not great amd the crab meat avocado toast was blah. My mother had the steak and eggs and her steak was very over done. I will be back because the lobster sliders are that great but my experience Sunday was definitely a 1 on a scale of 1 to 10.
Had an awesome experience for Afternoon Tea. So delicious. Even the kids enjoyed it. And they never enjoy anything anywhere.
Our first visit to Oxford Exchange, but definitely not our last!
Everything was exceptional: ambiance, service, menu, drinks, entrees. We had fried avocado wedge as a starter, poppy seed pancakes, omelet (pancetta, mushrooms, spring peas, fontina cheese); all of it was scrumptious!
The only down side is the lack of parking which can be a challenge.
Easter holiday menu could have been much better. Scene is always a great one, disappointed in the food though.
A very loud place and I felt like I was being rushed
Our drinks and food was great. There service was good. I was disappointed that after i told our server we were celebrating a birthday for my twin girlfriends who were 40 that no arrangement or birthday cake was offered or brought to the table.
What an amazing place from the first step in the door! Down to every nook and cranny the established amazed with beauty and character. The staff was incredible as was the entire dining experience. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for any occasion and I look forward to returning.
Absolutely one of my Top 3 "Go To" places for breakfast or lunch with out-of town (prospective) clients or visitors. Food, service, ambiance--all very well presented, in an inviting environment--never lets me down!
Such a fun and fancy restaurant. The food is always amazing and fresh with the best service around! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to have a nice lunch out. They should add a brunch menu!
I always come here every chance I get. Love everything about Oxford. My only suggestion would be for them to figure out the seating. I always want to sit outside and therefore request it on my reservation, but sometimes like this day, I had to wait some extra time to be seated outside. They need to figure that out.
Excellent food. It was our first visit and we def plan on making more visits in the near future .
It was a great atmosphere for a first date and both my date and I enjoyed ourselves. This was a first time dining here for both of us.
Love it!!! Love it!!!
Love this place. The cortadas (coffee) are amazing . The architecture and decor are trendy .
Great place, but the parking situation is horrible, which will eventually drive people away. During the week, parking is scarce, which leaves you virtually no choice but to pay $10 to park in a church lot. In Sundays, that lot is not an option, so plan on walking a few blocks after a hunt for parking.
Other than that, it’s a great place for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Good service and good food and great ambiance.
Great service great food! We were seated right away. Decor & atmosphere lovely!
