Hi Gary

Remember the exchange rate isn't as good this year. When we were there in July it was only between 2.5 and 2.6 to the pound. Bet place that we used was the supermarket next to Chill bar and underneath ICR offices.

Hope this helps

We are first timers to Icmeler. Where is the best place to change English money, lots of different advice on the forum. Is it Venice or the supermarket next to the Chill Bar? Advice appreciated.

Once you find the Chill bar,the ICR offices are above this.
The little supermarket is next door to the Chill and I have used it for a few years now both for groceries and changing my sterling.

If you are in the Venice having a meal and need money changing there is no problem.
