We got into coffee during our time in the Marines.
It began as a source of energy during training, but slowly it developed into a ritual as we got stationed and then deployed to Afghanistan together. As our approach to coffee evolved, so did our understanding of it. We started experimenting with different roasts and different brewing methods. Soon we came to a startling realization: coffee didn’t have to be bitter and harsh or weak and flavorless. It could taste good. Real good. But so few places were delivering on the promise trapped inside each coffee, that when we got out of the Marines, we set out to change that. The result is Compass Coffee.
About Compass
A compass is a simple object.
It has two essential functions: it helps you get your bearings and it points you in the right direction. We think about good coffee the exact same way. We took our name to honor this profound simplicity and utility. We made the points of the compass our logo as a reminder that, if they do nothing else, our coffee and our cafés will always help our customers get their bearings and point them in the right direction for the rest of the day.
Compass Coffee is dedicated to making real good coffee. Nothing fancy, nothing too crazy or hard to pronounce, just really good.
