The Exchange Cafe is a welcome addition to the U of T campus. Located in the new business school building, it comes complete with a gas fireplace and lots of light from floor to ceiling windows.
My go-to item here for breakfast or lunch is the breakfast bagel: egg, cheese, bacon, avocado, tomato, and lettuce. I've tried a few of the soups as well and some of the prepared salads/sandwiches. It's definitely a step up from the standard campus eateries, and I applaud their efforts to use locally-soucred, sustainable food.
The thing that keeps it from scoring higher is the consistency. The breakfast bagel, for example, hits the full range from 1 to 5 stars depending on the day. I've loved it and wanted more some days and thrown it out before finishing it on others. Kitchen management needs to step up quality control.
Staff are always friendly.
