Located at 3311 N Broadway, Chicago, IL 60657, The Coffee & Tea Exchange operates as a tea house serving Chicago in Illinois. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as cafe, coffee roastery, gourmet grocery store, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

Hours at these spots often run into the evening, later than a typical coffee shop, and many stay open on weekends when demand is highest in Chicago. Seasonal and limited-time drink or dessert flavors are common, so a shop's current menu can differ from what is posted online; checking recent photos or calling ahead helps. Some locations in Illinois are dessert-only with no seating, meant for takeout, while others have cafe-style seating for staying a while. Straws for bubble tea are typically wide to accommodate the toppings, and are provided automatically unless you ask for a regular one. Loyalty apps and stamp cards are common at chain locations, and ordering ahead through an app can shorten a wait considerably at busy locations during peak after-school and after-dinner hours.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. On most of those days it is open 7 am–7 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (773) 528-2241. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is coffeeandtea.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

Love this place sm! Great selection of loose leaf teas. I was very impressed by the service the first time I went, too, as I was looking for something specific and the worker told me they were out, but could put me on a list to call me when they have more in stock. When they got some in, they even set a bag aside for me so I could come pick it up. I felt very cared for. I also brought my mom here for a mother's day gift and she found something she liked. Come here for all your tea needs!!

I recently moved across the street and this place was a small factor in picking my new unit because I’m such a tea girl. I haven’t gone often (I will much more now that I live close) but when I do, it’s always been great. The tea selection is unmatched. Service is good. The coffee is STRONG. Not sure if that’s its strong or if it’s just real. I usually only get lattes at Starbucks and I don’t get a buzz there . But lately got a couple here and I had to toss it after drinking half cus I felt like I was drinking crack. This isn’t a complaint, just noting that it’s real deal. Always well made and good flavor selection for the syrups. Staff is kind and efficient

Absolutely love this spot for coffee and purchasing gifts! The monthly rotating menu is always so fun. Their coffee, teas, and matcha are always perfect and they have so many flavors to choose from. I do wish they offered lemonade, which I like to add to my iced teas, but that’s my only small qualm.

Really impressive store! Colorful. It's very very popular. My wife and I went and scanned the loose leaf tea he's got very excited had four bags ready to go and then noticed a sign on the wall that said you have to stand in this line and pay. The lion had about 10 people in it so we put the key back and left disappointed. They have another cash register on the left side near the door but they didn't choose to use that. It's a great place if you don't mind standing in line!

As a coffee addict, I loved this place. I bought coffee from here, not any drinks. I love trying out new flavors and they have Colombian, Arabica, French, Italian and many more. Each of the barrels you see in the video has different coffee in them. They have around 3 different decaf coffee alone. When it comes to their price point I found it on more expensive side per pound. Most of their coffee starts at $14-$17 per pound, there are a few much below or higher than that. As I like to experiment with coffee tastes I paid even more expensive price point of $5 per quarter pound. In my opinion it is really expensive but again coffee flavor adventures do cost more than Costco coffees which are around $6-$9 per pound. I would definitely suggest to stop by. When you buy any coffee they do ask how you would like to be grinded. I couldn’t answer right away so they asked a few questions and figured out what I would need.
