I have been coming to this Compass location for 3 years. I can tell you that they are the ONLY coffee shop that produces great coffee consistently. From espresso to cold brew and everything in between, they have their coffee recipes dialed.Cold day? Cortado or a good old latte. Lavender latte if you are feeling for something sweet.Hot day? Mint cold brew with less ice.I do wish they had pour-over coffee. Please give them a try if you are in the area.

The coffee is ok but the special lattes are way too sweet. Also the people that work here are just not friendly, practically ignore you.

Really bad latte. People working weren’t overtly rude, but certainly didn’t come across as friendly at any point. Was not greeted when walking in, they just kind of meandered to the register a couple minutes after I walked up. Got a lavender latte and it was just plain gross. Sour, flavorless. Yuck! Muffin was okay.

If you’re going to have a phone number posted, make sure you either pick it up or clear your voice mail. Otherwise you just look unprofessional.

I like the place but the just two the employees don’t listen or give attention to your orders ( they talk fun loud each other) properly so they don’t satisfied your order,

I love the take out. I haven't had any issues as of yet. Cheers!
Overpriced. Paid $8 for a matcha latte. Rude service on top of that!

This is for the 1201 Wilson Blvd location.I got to the counter and ordered a coffee and a sandwich. I got the coffee but the server did not prepare my sandwich. Preparing a sandwich here means they grab the sandwich, open the plastic container it is in, put the sandwich in the oven, and press a button. She didn't do that, but proceeded to take orders from other customers for 15 minutes. So I asked the other person working there about my sandwich and he said it would be coming out soon. I said no one has even put it in the oven yet. I know they're busy but my order is part of the business of the morning, so she should have put it in the oven when i ordered it. He said it would be out soon. I watched for five minutes as they continued to not prepare the sandwich. I've been waiting for over twenty minutes at this point and so I just left. I don't know what their problem was. There was no legit reason to not handle my order at the time I put it in. I feel like the woman behind the counter had to have made a conscious decision to not prepare my order. There were no sandwich orders in line before mine holding mine up, and while I was waiting no one else had ordered a sandwich, so there was no mix-up with the order of things, either. Truly baffling.I don't think I'll go back any more. There are several good alternatives conveniently near by. Bourbon Coffee for one, which is where I'll go from now on.

Ordered a flat white. Got a bucket of warm milk with a vague coffee aroma that might pass as a latte. Idk why places call a drink a flat white if they’re going to serve something so enormous? Food was ok, not much interaction from staff.

The coffee is always delicious and we can usually find a place to sit. I’ve met multiple clients for coffee here. Usually just 1 client at a time but I’ve had a group of up to 4 people and we made it work…depending on the time of day.
Very nice coffee shop!!
