Compass Coffee provides a fun experience. The interior is warm and inviting. There’s lots of seating (a long shared solid wood table in the center with 12 chairs, a bar with nine stools, a wooden bench that looks like a pew in the back, several small tables near the front windows, and some covered outdoor seating). There’s a natural, solid wood floor that just exudes warmth and comfort. There are plants and thoughtfully-placed decorations. There are big windows everywhere providing ample light. My black coffee was very good. They steamed the cream for free and it was excellent ($4.50 with one refill - 10 oz ceramic mug; additional refills are $2). My buddy got a Cortado which was good but I didn’t like that it was in a paper cup. The art on the Cortado? A B. He got a coconut milk upgrade and coconut milk is a bit hard to work with. His Cortado was $6.80 with tax, including the $1 coconut milk upgrade. The service was so-so. I loved the service for me. The girls were great and gave me free steamed cream. My buddy, well, he felt that they were a bit cold. He didn’t feel very welcomed and for him, this is kind of normal when he comes here. Service can also be a bit slow when they get busy. They roast their own beans, so it’s as fresh as possible! Wow, the coffee is good. We didn’t get any food so I can’t speak to that.

The coffee here is so good you’ll want to move to Vancouver (or never leave). An absolutely perfect Guatemalan light roast. They are also the rare, maybe only, third wave feeling coffee shop where the barista/owner is super kind and welcoming and they have heavy cream. They are a purple unicorn rising a narwhal right down the center of main street. Pastries also looking amazing. 🥐 🥐🥐

Bad service and also I didn’t feel welcome, and also I feel uncomfortable when we went in, if you’re Latino or Hispanic I don’t recommend for you, sorry good coffe but bad service

I've been here a few times. They have decent coffee but the service leaves something to be desired. We weren't acknowledged even after waiting at the register for several minutes, it seems to be a pattern with this establishment.

Bad service. The baristas are constantly talking to their friends and not working while there’s a line. This happens every time I’ve gone. Coffee is fine but there’s 5 places to get equally good coffee within walking distance. They’ll waste your time don’t bother.

Compass has some of the best coffee I’ve ever had. Their roasting game has been blowing up. The service is great and the atmosphere is nice.

Decent coffee. Staff unimpressive, takes a long time for orders. Plenty of other places to get the same quality of coffee and a lot faster. I would say this is on par with Starbucks but at least Starbucks staff are more attentive and friendlier. I have been to this place 3 times and same vibe. Twice in downtown and other one off St. John’s. Will not come back here. A lot better places in Vancouver.
I was in there just long enough to grab a mocha coffee drink and then I left but I would probably go back.

Stopped by on a walk a while ago and I'm just now leaving a review. It was very dim. The coffee was yummy. We sipped on our drinks and strolled over to the everything vintage shop next door! It was cozy.

Almost peed myself waiting in line to buy something, can't use the bathroom until a purchase is made. Was a returning customer but now I think I'll stick with Relevant where I don't have to feel like a total chump everytime I walk in. $4 for a milk. Scam Likely.
Nice place. Plenty of seating. Young crowd.
