Welcome to Coffee & Tea Exchange, a delightful cafe nestled along Macquarie Street in Dubbo, NSW. This charming spot is not just a cafe; it’s an experience that brings together a warm ambiance, friendly staff, and a menu that promises to bewitch your taste buds.

Start your day right with their All Day Breakfast offerings, where you can indulge in a delectable Big Brekky that combines perfectly cooked bacon, runny yolk eggs, and your choice of toast. Or perhaps you’re in the mood for the heartwarming Bacon & Egg Muffin or a tasty Brekkie Wrap that'll kick-start your morning with energy and flavor. Each dish comes beautifully plated, inviting you to savor every bite, the aromas wafting around you hinting at the careful preparation and quality ingredients used.

If breakfast isn’t your only focus, you can transition seamlessly into lunch with their variety of sandwiches and rolls. Try the Steak Sandwich or the satisfying Quiche & Salad, both of which promise to be a hit among locals and visitors alike. The menu is well-rounded, ensuring there’s something for everyone, from the hearty appetite to those seeking light and fresh flavors.

The atmosphere at Coffee & Tea Exchange is relaxed yet buzzing, particularly on weekends when the locals gather for their Saturday rituals. As Brenden Wood notes, the cafe can get busy, but the staff—offering friendly faces and engaging service—work hard to maintain a comfortable dining experience. Remember to consider the seating options as well; while indoor seating is cozy, outdoor seating provides a charming view, albeit with the occasional tree sap from overhead if you're not careful.

Your experience is bound to be enhanced by the rich, aromatic coffee selections they offer. As mentioned by Ivan L. Hales, the cappuccinos are crafted to perfection, making each sip a warm embrace that complements your meal or serves as a pick-me-up during a busy day.

With positive feedback pouring in consistently, it's clear that Coffee & Tea Exchange has struck a chord with the community.

Busy cafe. Kitchen staff and waitresses were very friendly and participated in COVID-safe practices. The person at the counter was rushed and abrupt. Products are slightly pricey. Seating located indoors and outdoors. Sap from the trees along this street fall to the ground - this means, if you sit outside small drops of stapler will fall on you and your meal. Parking located on the street outside the cafe.

Amazing experience every time! Hubby and I come here most Saturdays and its hands down the best in Dubbo for a big breakfast and a decent size half breakfast! Great value, perfectly cooked bacon- cooked but not crispy, and runny yolk eggs. Thanks team!

should have writting this two years ago>< wonderful time always! had my engagement proposal here , it was planned by my partner and my friends (the shop owner and her sister-Jan and yunyi). very surprise with the planning and the location they planned. Not just the sincere friendship I had , yet, they do have passionate in what they doing for customer which make me respect. Food and coffee is always excellent and the price is fair. sometimes they will make some special malaysian cuisine (very very good taste ). environment is just a simple, charming, and hygiene is absolutely clean. Staff is very honest and sincere.
