Relaxed laid back place. Awesome views and in the middle of everything. Bartender made excellent drinks and waitress was quick. Didn't eat but looking forward to going back.

Excellent as always. Heaven was our server. She was attentive without being annoying, and I would request her if given the option.The bartender that Sunday afternoon makes a great drink with no name for my 70 yr old mother with frangelico, amaretto, kahlua, vodka and half and half. . . I badgered him to come up with a name for it and for the life of me cannot remember what we called it.Well . . anyway, he is great as well, very skilled and efficient.

Enjoyed the view from the rooftop. The mushroom pizza was amazing and the pear martini is a must try!

The ExchangeMarriot HotelLancaster, Pennsylvania12th Floor – East TowerThis upscale room reminds one of a chic edit of the Top of the Mark, in the famed Mark Hopkins Hotel in San Francisco, California.  Sweeping, panoramic views over cocktails and one of the most inspired menus for social gatherings I’ve encountered in this part of the Keystone State, along with a sophisticated vibe reminiscent of the iconic rooftop nightspot in the Nob Hill Section of the City by the Bay.Modern design twists include fire pits at community tables on a beautiful and spacious outdoor deck, and an indoor seating capacity of about sixty plus.  All set to streaming electronic deep house music and I’m told, occasional live entertainment.The menu includes wine, craft beer and cocktails with the timeless Manhattan that plays host at Happy Hour for ten dollars; virgin “zero-proof” cocktails; wood-fired pies like Margherita, Caesar, or sausage and broccolini; a decadent s’mores brownie dessert, and plenty of shareable small plates.More cocktail offerings, narrated by a thoroughly knowledgeable, skillful, and friendly tender named Tanner include the Arctic Margarita, which begins with a two-day process back bar for the clarified milk (strained through a coffee filter) to give this star libation its lite creamy consistency.  The chocolated Oaxacan Campfire features mezcal and crème de cacoa served over a solitary large cube.  Finally Tanner’s twist on an Old Fashioned substitutes agave nectar for simple syrup, to sip your escape away for more than a few relaxing minutes as you gaze through the windows of this local gem atop the scenic streets of downtown Lancaster.Had I known, I would have planned a better New Year’s Evening for NO COVER, a champagne toast at midnight, and the wails of a blues saxophonist to accompany an undoubtedly fun goodbye to Auld Lang Syne.  By God’s grace, maybe next year.

Excited to enjoy the outdoor area once it's a little warmer. This place is great for all occasions, especially a girls brunch! Smaller menu for brunch.

Upmarket restaurant with city views and outdoor dining with fire pits for winter. Very friendly service and good food. Known for its cocktails, we weren't disappointed.

The restaurant was extremely cold to the point of being unpleasant. The food was very good and the service was pretty good, however, when we made a simple menu request that could not be fulfilled, the server's attitude was arrogant and rude, instead of being friendly and just explaining why they couldn't honor our request. The general tone of the place is as if they are doing a favor to by allowing you in the restaurant.

We had a girls, day that started off with brunch here. The ambiance made us feel fancy but not out of place, comfy seating, long cocktail menu and delicious food for a reasonable cost. The view is unmatched too. We want to come back when the patio is open for the summer!

Came here for a date night and enjoyed the experience! The margarita pizza was good and drinks were pretty good. Service was a little slow. When we arrived the hostess desk was empty and we waited for someone to come for a while. The ambiance and view was breathtaking, felt like a high end nyc restaurant! Overall, 8/10

I was expecting quality food, while some of the food tasted good, none of it was amazing and a lot of it was very mid. My expectations were too high, but with the vibe they put off I don't think I'm solely to blame.

When I first found this restaurant researching ideas for a date night I thought 'That looks interesting!' and kept that in my places to go box Valentine's Day came up and I was like that's a great place to go! The atmosphere was good and the service was excellent - I highly recommend this place to anyone and would consider returning!
