I've always had a fun time at this bar when visiting Lansing. A bit of a pick up scene, but the live music is fun!

This place has the best martinis in town! The premium speciality martinis are amazing! They are loaded with alcohol infused fruit and taste so good! The atmosphere is really nice and they often have live music. There is a small area to dance by the band, but it is more of a relaxed atmosphere and not a night club.

This bar had a great band on a Saturday night. The venue was not super packed but the crowd was older and had a nice chill vibe.
There were comfy booths to hang out talk and listen to the band.

If you want a martini, this is where you go! They have a huge variety. You can even partake in their monthly special ones.

We were in Lansing just for one night and my friend wanted to out at night. I am not into party/night clubs but we went out. I felt that everything around was for school/university kids. Nothing for my age (40). However finally we end up at The Exchange where the band exceeded my expectations. We stayed till the very end listing. Although I didn't drink alcohol, my friend did and she was impressed with martinis they served. Highly recommended place!

We headed out to downtown Lansing for a Bachelorette party, none of us being from the area we were at the mercy of locals for bar suggestions. We were told by our server at dinner to head to The Exchange. The bartender greeted us swiftly and poured our first round of drinks. The band was a great time and played some old classics as well as some new hits from the radio. We were lucky enough to meet a super helpful young man that goes by the name Bobo. I believe he was the manager and very helpful. At the end of the night he ordered us a cab and chatted with us until it arrived.Such a gentlemen to make sure we were safely headed back to our hotel,talk about customer service! As a manager in the F&B industry myself, I was very impressed with Bobo, thanks for going above and beyond!!

Amazing mart is. Small patio with darker interior. Two flights of stairs to get to the main floor from the parking lot in the back. Parkinfpg isn't Alonso available on the street. Short walk to the Capitol building, downtown shops, across the street from the Lansing Center, and in the middle of the entertainment district. Nice and friendly staff. Look around, you may see local,politicians or celebrities. If you miss the sign in fron, look for Omar's Strip Ba next door.

The Exchange is definitely a must visit bar and light eats restaurant. This night I went because of the music and a night out with a friend. I like The Exchange because it has a loft like upstairs that is sort of private. They need to replace some of the chairs and there was also someone sitting in the back with flasks on the table. I was surprised but it is locally owned and who am I to make comment. It was odd. The service was great. They kept the place clean and the music from Mixed Pack was awesome. It is an all male band and they were singing songs by Dr. Dre, Snoop and plenty of other genres. It was interesting and a lot of people were dancing.
The nachos were good.

Customer service was really bad. The bartender was rude and so was the manager. Both of them need to understand that they are in the service industry and their goal should be to delivery the best customer service possible.
