This may be petty to some. But the reason I have given this place a low score. Is because they only serve vegan cakes now. Had it been the other way around there would be loads of complaints. I would highly recommend the place to my friends and family But no longer. Most Cafes and coffee shops around the UK try their best to cater for vegans and it's getting better each year. So out of principal and fairness I sadly won't be using this place again even though the service and atmosphere are great.
The cafe located in the Royal Exchange is a delightful and peaceful spot where one can escape the hustle and bustle of city life while enjoying a cup of coffee amidst the historical surroundings. The Royal Exchange has played a significant role in the social and economic history of the area, boasting a rich theater and art heritage. Visitors should also check out the unique theater housed within the Royal Exchange, which has been designed to resemble something straight out of NASA.

The Royal Exchange holds great significance in Manchester's social and economic history, as well as its impressive theatrical and artistic legacy.

Food is good, but not much selection. Too much vegan unhealthy food. I need protein... not mystery meat. The staff were friendly and quick to help and serve. A bit too expensive however. I also wish there was more privacy in the seating as its just chairs in a large open plan hallway. Manchester tart was very good.

Just to Clarify, now no longer a formal restaurant but a no reservation, Café serving light meals in accordance with the Theatre Productions on during the day. Closes as the evening performance starts
Paid £5 for a cold piece of omelette large like 2 index fingers of a very small hand (no extras, no salad, no nothing), served by the rudest person in Manchester. Quite a robbery!
the exchange is a great setting for the rivals bar. Thoroughly enjoyed looking around the interior. Table settings design a bit naff but Good quality alcohol free beer.
I highly recommend this Vietnamese fast food restaurant. The caramel pork is delicious, and their chicken/shrimp spring rolls and curry chicken are also very good.
