Bezdelīgu iela 3. Bring passport or ID card with you as they transfer money to account.
Alternative – bring coins to your bank and ask to change them. Fees will be applied. In Germany coin change machines are common but not here.
Central bank
You can try asking cashiers of smaller stores if they don’t need exchange money.
Sometimes they are actually happy to exchange it.

Buy something at Maxima and then use self checkout, you can pay with coins, just pour them in
From my experience, I went to some local small shop and asked if I could change to paper money or bigger coins. Mostly they changed to paper money.
