Hello, Laconia.
Come on in.

A place to
pause and taste

Compass Cafe was born from a simple idea: a neighborhood spot where the coffee is poured with care, the bread comes out of the oven before dawn, and everyone who walks through the door is treated like a regular — even on their first visit.

Located on Lakeside Avenue in the heart of Laconia, we combine a full-service bakery and café with a curated local market. Whether you're grabbing a quick espresso on your way to the lake or spending a Saturday morning browsing artisan goods, this is your compass point.
