The Exchange

The Exchange Cocktail Bar and The Vault Banquet Room in South Bend brings unique and timeless elegance to every celebration—whether it’s a wedding, corporate business event, holiday party, or social gathering. Set inside the historic Citizen's Bank and Trust building built in 1913, the space consisted of various banks for decades. With The Exchange Cocktail Bar and its adjoining space called The Vault, our two venues can be reserved together or separately. Both The Exchange and The Vault spaces feature marble walls, original details, and warm, inviting atmospheres that set the stage for truly special events. Our team works closely with you to bring your vision to life, with custom menus from The Exchange, Ruth’s Chris Steak House, or Brasserie 23, to make every event, from stand-up cocktail receptions to seated dining, as memorable as the moment itself. The Exchange Whiskey Bar offers a relaxed, stylish space for celebrations with handcrafted cocktails and an impressive collection of more than 440 whiskeys—perfect for a pre-party, after-party or casual gathering, The Vault, just steps away, offers a one-of-a-kind setting for up to 200 guests to toast, dine and dance the night away. Combining the two locations for events provides a completely immersive and private experience.
