The exchange has always been a solid dinner spot. We have never had bad service! I will admit…read moresometimes I am sad to see a favorite rotate off the menu but the new selections are always just as good. Great spot for indoor or outdoor. Even a good "in between" section where it's covered but they can lift up the doors. The bun on our burger did come out hard a rock but they immediately took it back and remade it as soon as we mentioned it. Great drink selections for beer, wine and cocktails. A New Albany gem for sure!

Usually the Exchange is always a great time with amazing food but this last visit did not live up…read moreto our expectations. We were in last week for dinner, for a dual Birthday celebration and had a larger group of about 20 people. We sat in the front room, and it was rather warm in there, but it was an unusually hot day for mid-September. There was only one other couple there when me and my husband arrived and it took a while for the server to come over and ask if we wanted drinks. By the time he did, several other people had arrived, and they all got their drinks before we did. It even took forever to get our drinks; we could see them dying at the bar waiting to be ran. I'll be honest, the service wasn't the best, it was obvious the server might have been newer in the sense of experience with a large party. He was very friendly and had a great demeanor but was extremely forgetful, which he mentioned several times. Once everyone was settled, we started with Appetizers. The Goat Cheese Fritters, with Bacon Date Aioli, Honey and Parsley are always my go to. They are small little goat cheese balls deep fried to perfection and delicious every time. For dinner we shared the Bone-In Pork Schnitzel that has a Tonkatsu Glaze, Sauerkraut, charred lemon and Japanese potato salad, and a side of mac n cheese. The Pork was extremely dry and flavorless and there was no glaze on it. The mac n cheese was just okay. One of my friends got the Braised Short Rib Adobo (brown beech & crimini mushrooms, creamy risotto) and let me have a taste. Let's just say I was extremely jealous I chose the wrong entrée for dinner, it was so good!

They came out hot and delicious. I was expecting more than just ketchup as a topping, but they were still good. The fries were terribly warm, but they were good. It's a bar atmosphere which seems to be pretty appropriate. The back bar has a great selection of bourbons. I'll probably try something different than the sliders in my next visit.

We we greeted as we came in by Mary Beth who was the mixologist of the day. We were self seated at the bar to get first hand experience. Menus were given to us, certain items were pointed out as favorites and drink order was placed. We ordered the chicken sliders and the Knocker Burger which is one of the original burgers from the original Tavern in Louisville. Octoberfest was ordered along with a Diet Coke/bourbon. The Octoberfest was good, however there was a little twist of berry hint to it. I asked about it and was explained that the prior pour was a blueberry drink and the flavor was still infused in the lines after flushing. Kayla was the manager and she was concocting some new drink creations for the upcoming widow walk. People go from place to place ( similar to a pub crawl ). They were taste testing to have a go to drink for the themed walk. They are also gearing up for Harvest Homecoming. Our food was delivered nice and fresh. The sliders were very good. The burger was tasty and filling; so only ate 1/2. The fries were really good and nicely salted, not too much or too little. All in all a nice establishment to visit. Might have to check out the widow walk when time comes around.

The drinks are well made, the bartenders are friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe makes it easy to stay longer than you planned. It's a great spot whether you're going out for a casual night or meeting friends for something a little different from the usual bar scene. What really stands out is the personality of the place. It feels cozy, well put together, and genuinely enjoyable. We've had consistently good experiences and would absolutely recommend giving The Earl a try if you're in New Albany.

If this place were called "Steve's" or something and had more mundane lighting, I'd wrap my head around it more easily. The bar itself runs down the center of the single room with some four-ups against the wall. Each time, drinks are poured into plastic cups. Prices seem reasonable but portions are smaller than you'll get elsewhere. There's a few on draft, some alright cocktails and a limited food menu. I opted for the pretzel bread and pimento spread and was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed the freshness, texture, and taste! Music selections fluctuate both genres and volumes. Clientele is pretty relaxed. Its a go-to spot after 10 p.m.

I really like this place. I won't say the beer complely knocked my socks off, but a pleasant…read moresurprise, none the less. The brewery is very medieval themed. The menu (see pic) is one sample of how they have themed the place. The items themselves have a touch of humor, with a Tuscan Chicken Penne Pasta call Pasta La Vista and a sandwich called a Motley Creuben. Love the sandwich sign coming in, which had a pie chart of whether you should come in and have a beer, with choice being "yes" and "yes in blue" (pictured) and the other side distinguishing between fun and real life. In some ways, this is more of a taproom than a brewery, as they have their own beers, but also carry many from otehr breweries and cideries around the state. I grabbed the California Dreamin' and she got the Cod Smacked, albeit on a bun and not on Rye. I am not a huge fan of fried fish, so I was not uber thrilled about her sandwich, although I did find the fish well cooked and the haus bier batter was nice. My club was right on point. I am also not one with heavily seasoned fries, but I will say the seasoning here is not offensive (and thank god no potato flakes, which seems to be very popular these days. The beer is in the average/above average tier when compared to craft breweries. This means far better than Bud (with apologies to those who can stomach Bud on a regular basis - I am not worthy). ds

Nice place to sit down and has tables along sidewalk for outside seating…read more Ordered some food, cod fish sandwich/ fries and a Brewer burger/ fries. Drink and soda. The waitress was kind and attentive and did a nice job taking care of us. Food was very good; especially the Brewer burger. Inside was nicely done up like a restaurant with signs of a brewery. The place was very clean and neat. Good stop for us!

It's very low lit and romantic and very atmospheric downstairs and I love that. They've also added several vintage TVs that you can play a variety of video games on (including Xbox) and they've got a tv playing the rugrats movie apparently too hahaha. I like that aspect. Just wish they would add a few more arcade games down there. Including Galaga and Joust (which they also removed). They have a tabletop version of Galaga but it was broke... speaking of broke a couple other games didn't work either. The dig dug stick got stuck a couple times. But most of the games worked fine . I got one draft beer that was 7 dollars - overpriced in my opinion but decent tasting. It's still a super fun place to visit. Drink, have fun, chill out, eat. It's novel atmosphere very welcoming and colorful and enjoyable. Exactly the wholesome kind of spot for young and old alike.

The atmosphere is casual but very comfortable and fun, loved all the open windows and natural light. The food is slightly pricey for not coming with fries or any sides, but the flavors were great and we enjoyed both the smash burger and chicken sandwich!

Even before we were seated, I noticed a server wearing a green bandanna speaking to another employee, who we later learned was the manager on duty, in a way that seemed unprofessional and unfriendly. After we were seated, my wife asked if we could move because she was cold. We then waited about 15 minutes before anyone came to our table. When our server finally arrived, she acted like she didn't want to be there. My wife asked for a recommendation, but the response was vague and unhelpful. Our drink order was wrong. My wife and I ordered waters, and our son ordered a Sprite, but we received two lemonades and one water instead. After taking our order, our server disappeared. She never brought our food, checked on us, asked if we needed refills, or stopped by the table again. The manager walked past our table several times but never seemed interested in checking on our experience. The biggest issue was my son's meal. He ordered chicken sliders with the sauce on the side, but they arrived covered in sauce. Another employee took the meal back to be remade, but it came back wrong a second time. By then, my wife and I had already finished eating, and our son had been waiting nearly an hour without a proper meal. When I spoke with the manager, I asked that my son's meal be removed from the bill. Instead of taking responsibility and apologizing, the manager offered excuses rather than solutions. Mistakes can happen, but it's how they're handled that matters. Unfortunately, the customer service from both our server and the manager was disappointing. We left frustrated, and based on this experience, we will not be returning to this location.
