An absolute perfect working space, I spent the entire day here with my laptop and my headphones and at least three cups of their excellent coffee.It's a cool space with lots of seating, lots of power outlets and a wifi that worked really well. I was super impressed and enjoyed the time.Coffee was excellent and the chocolate chip cookie I had with my second cup was delightful. When I'm back in Akron, I'll be working from here![Review 1360 of 2024 - 279 in Ohio - 22383 overall]

The front door of the facility is on the one-way street. The parking lot is in the back. The inside of this place is large and welcoming. It looks like a great place to do work. There's no password for the Wi-Fi so it's easy to connect. I purchased my typical drink an espresso macchiato. The presentation was poor, and the flavor was bitter. The price was was extremely reasonable at $2.50.

Very cool chill and spacious coffee shop that is connected to a church. Plenty of space and outlets to work or study from. The service is friendly and the music is mellow which makes it a great place to concentrate or have a conversation. The lattes were made well and it was enjoyable to drink. They have a stage so looks like they might have live music at times and they also sometimes have special food takeovers. Definitely recommend if you're looking to get your coffee fix without the hustle and bustle of a loud and busy coffee shop.

Amazing coffee with some of the kindest baristas. I love there mochas and lattes. They have a quiet space to work and get things done! The place also has a very cute bookstore. I highly recommend coming here ! Happy hour after 2PM Monday-Friday.

Really cool coffee shop. Freshly made drinks with REAL milk in glass bottles ... now that's not 2022?! Non-profit with a purpose to help the locals. See photo for details.

Compass is another great coffee place. It's a cool looking space. There's plenty of chairs and tables. Quiet atmosphere. You can really get comfortable or do some work. An interesting thing is that it's in the bottom of a church. I don't know if the church is still open but it looked like it. They in spite of this don't have a religious theme. It's actually a social justice kind of place. They give some of their profits to the community to help people who need things. As for the coffee, it's good. They have a small menu but there's variety. I had a cortado. It's $3.50 for a cup. They have some non dairy milks. Among the snacks are those Betty Lou treats which you can eat pretty fast. They have several flavors of these. It overall has some good coffee. It doesn't have much in the way of food. They might at some times.

A very lovely and large coffee shop. My fiance was in the area for a work meeting and I tagged along. He dropped me off here and I was able to get a ton of work done in this cozy shop. I went with a latte and loved it. I'd love to come back!

Cute place for coffee and/or something eat. The service was wonderful. The barista was extremely nice. Perfect place for college kids or if you want somewhere to sit and relax. Has a cute little place to check out books too.

I questioned leaving a review, because I myself am a barista at a specialty coffee shop and I want to be supportive of all other local shops. Unfortunately, my experience here was really disappointing & I want it to be heard by the owners of the shop as well as future customers.When I walked in I was kindly greeted by a female barista & she was the highlight of my whole experience (super kind and accommodating) I ordered an oat milk cappuccino which came in 12oz /16oz sizes which is not standard for cappuccinos, but that's not the end of the world. When I received my capp I was super confused by the looks of it. The basista kindly told me that they make their own milk and it's a lot thicker than usual. She also said if I didn't like it I could swap it out for something else which was super generous.Don't get me wrong, I think it's awesome that this shop makes it own oatmilk and offers cost effective vegan options, but this was absolutely atrocious. My cappuccino was basically porridge and I couldn't handle it. (I wish I could add the video I took of me stirring this drink. Unreal.) I gave the capp back and asked for an iced coffee instead and the barista poured hot drip coffee over ice, which is a huge red flag that their staff hasn't been trained properly. I feel incredibly bad for their staff. They're not trained well and they're the ones who have to take the brunt when people are served bad product. For a coffee shop that tries to fall into the 'third wave'/ 'specialty coffee' category it's just not good.
