About Compass Coffee

Compass Coffee was founded in 2014 by two Marines who, after years of drinking terrible coffee on deployment, became obsessed with the quest for the perfect cup. What began as a desire to unlock the secret to perfect coffee grew into something much more significant. It was the realization that coffee is more than just a drink. It"s a ritual that brings people together, facilitates human connection, and makes your day better. Compass Coffee has since expanded to 16 cafes in and around DC where Real Good Coffee is served and communities are formed. At the heart of it all is a relentless commitment to quality at every step - to ethical sourcing, masterful blending, and peak roasting in small batches - all to create an experience that is much more than just a cup of coffee.

• Create a welcoming atmosphere, and provide legendary customer service
• Seek opportunities to engage and connect with customers
• Craft drinks that uphold the quality standards our customers expect from us
• Taste coffee every day to expand your palette and coffee knowledge
• Support your fellow team members in upholding our mission
• Follow cleaning standards to ensure our cafes are fresh, clean and safe
• Continue to learn and grow—training is continuous in every role
