Company description
Compass Coffee is dedicated to making real good coffee. Nothing fancy, nothing too crazy or hard to pronounce, just really good.
Everything we do is built around this very simple proposition: from our espresso drinks and our signature blends to the layout and ambiance of our cafés across the city. Every day, our goal is your goal: to start your day off right and make sure it keeps going in the right direction. We strongly believe that a really good cup of coffee will do that. It does for us, and it can for you.
