The staff is amazing! The food is good, and the bread...omg the bread taste like a piece of heaven. No matter what time I go the food is always made fresh and is a sweet treat to please your taste buds!

The Acorn Exchange is an excellent lunch option in downtown Rochester. While it is certainly convenient for those in the building, the quality of the food brings hungry workers from all around the downtown area. Their freshly baked focaccia is delicious and I would recommend any sandwich that comes on it, but they also have plenty of other bistro-type options (salads, soups, coffee, etc.). They give great portions at good prices, so I don't think you can go wrong by stopping here for a bite to eat.

Nice and interesting place. Convenient location in the business center, which allows you to quickly buy food during lunch. I really liked the staff’s attitude and approach to healthy eating. Everything was fine until I tried the sandwich, it was absolutely not salty, there was not enough flavor in it. But overall everything else is good

AMAZING experience!!! We placed a large group order for delivery, and Jessica went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us. Each person’s order was individually labeled and the temperature for each sandwich was spot-on. Everyone in our group raved about how delicious the food was! If you’re in the area, I highly recommend making a special trip to grab lunch here!
