    While out and about exploring in West Palm Beach I found this coffee shop. I am always in need of afternoon caffeinated refreshment so I decided to stop and I am so glad I did because this place is a hidden gem. Composition Coffee was founded in 2019 by Joshua Korman as a pop-up espresso bar in the now-closed Elizabeth Ave Station. Their current location in Industry Alley opened in 2021. Walking up to Composition Coffee you go through their outdoor patio where you can sit at tables. Inside is industrial chic which channels the former warehouse that this used to be. Hanging plants and exposed brick bring add charm to the otherwise sterile interior. Food & Wine has listed Composition Coffee as one of the best coffee houses in Florida. They are particularly known for their matcha sourced directly from Japan and prepared using traditional techniques. When ordering they will share their expertise about coffee types, brewing methods, and where they source their beans. Specialty roasts are available via AeroPress, pour-over, cold brew, and espresso. Drinks are prepared using a specialty reverse osmosis water profile to deliver each beans beans flavor notes like chocolate, caramel, and fruit. Korman considers himself a scientist who is always working to present each coffee at its peak flavor. I ordered a London Fog cookie, made with Earl Grey tea with bergamot oil. It was my first time trying this flavor and it added a floral, citrusy tea taste to the cookie. It paired perfectly with an iced latte which i enjoyed in their cozy loft area. While I am not a coffee expert, whether experienced or novice, they will prepare you a delicious beverage.

    My favorite coffee shop! Aesthetics are beautiful and modern and coffee always tastes wonderful. I wish they had more branches!

    We went to check out this new coffee shop. It has a nice clean atmosphere. The servers were friendly. The iced cafe latte was great, along with the two cookies. A fair amount of parking. They have an upstairs section for extra seats, which makes good use of their space.

    This coffee shop came highly recommended to us by locals while visiting WPB, and it did not disappoint! Beautiful interior & coffee bar with an upper level with additional seating. We were able to catch their holiday menu specials and got the eggnog cortado which was just perfection. I could have drank two more. We enjoyed the cozy sofa upstairs while admiring the busy baristas from above. The parking lot is small & tight but we were able to score a spot. We'd definitely come back here the next time we're in the area.

    Cute little spot to relax at, have a coffee date, or do a little work from. The staff are very friendly and easy going, and helpful. Had a matcha latte with vanilla and honey, and it was the perfect level of sweetness. Also had a matcha brownie (honestly I have no idea what that is, but it was nice and dense which I liked, although a bit pricey at $7+) Good place to hang at and a cool looking aesthetic too. As for price, I guess you'd expect it for Palm Beach, but still probably would've liked to see each (drinks and food) be around 1-2$ cheaper to be an overall all in win. No issues and nothing stood out as particularly amazing or negative, no big deterrent or pill so overall: solid and safe spot - would recommend checking out if you're in the area and are looking for somewhere to roam to casually.

    Pretty quiet coffee shop. It's small inside. It's a coffee shop, so don't come here expecting to eat breakfast or lunch because this isn't the place for that. It's a place to drink coffee and maybe get some work done if you work remotely.

    I recently came here and ordered a vanilla iced latte. The employees were very friendly and kept the line moving. They have indoor and outdoor seating with a cool loft, which I've never seen before in a coffee shop. This is definitely a more classic coffee shop as they don't do fancy flavors.

    This coffee shop is in a great location in West Palm Beach. The loft seating was very unique, it's the first time I've seen that in a coffee shop. They have indoor and outdoor seating, along with a parking lot shared with other businesses. I do wish they had more flavors to choose from, as they didn't have caramel. Other than that, I enjoyed the vanilla latte and will return.

    Composition is located in downtown West Palm Beach by a delicious taco shop and an adorable record store. In my opinion I liked the seating options here. You could sit outside on their patio or upstairs in a loft-like area. However the cubby area tucked in the back was extremely uncomfortable for long term sitting. I had come here to study, and while I could find a seat, I could not find many places to plug in my laptop, which became kind of frustrating around the end of the day. Ironically, the cubby area had the most places to plug-in, but it was so uncomfortable that I ended up finding a table and balancing my laptop, so that I could get my cord to reach an outlet behind me at a table. I also thought it pertinent to warn everyone reading that I got a classic iced vanilla latte and it was over $10. No special milk and no other flavors.

    Came here with a friend due to all the good reviews we saw. My takeaway is that everything here is just okay. My friend ordered an iced matcha, which she left half unfinished as she didn't like it. I tried it as well and I'd have to agree. The matcha was still very bitter despite her asking them to sweeten it with honey. She did like her croissant. I ordered the matcha brownie which was very mild in taste and a bit on the dry side. I also got an iced latte, which was alright. I'm picky with coffee and I wouldn't say the flavor stood out to me enough to make a return here since it was an about 25 min drive. If I lived 5 minutes away maybe. The actual coffee shop was absolutely packed. Lots of dogs. We were able to find a spot upstairs and we hung around there for about an hour on our laptops. Always appreciate when there's spots where you can enjoy your coffee and have free wifi, so kudos to the owner for that.

    Monte Carlos latte one with coconut syrup and one with vanilla syrup

    Their coffee in pictures looks very promising, I always look for lattes that are darker in color so I know it's a lot stronger or more of a coffee taste than milk. They have a shared parking lot and street parking as well. The place looks really aesthetically pleasing they have a small upstairs lounge and offer patio. I like how there were a few options of espressos we can choose from. We got the monte espresso latte, one with coconut syrup and one with vanilla. I like how they measure their syrups by oz/g then pumps. They were very accommodating when I ask for 6grams of coconut syrup. Coffee was really good! Really strong coffee taste. Loved the vanilla latte but not a fan of the coconut but I would definitely come back again cause their coffee isn't water down or milky.

    Checking out a new spot!
    Lisa C.

    Big fan of this spot! Love the quality of coffee and decor. Although, I wish they offered more food options and a rewards program. Nonetheless, I highly recommend if you're a coffee connoisseur.

    Composition is my favorite coffee shop in Florida. It's so good that I'm willing to wake up at 6 a.m. and drive 50 minutes just to be there when they open (and I actually do that). The coffee is outstanding and actually tastes like the famous Community Goods coffee from LA. I love the artisanal ceramic cups they use--it adds so much to the experience. Their decaf coffee amazed me; it's so flavorful that it doesn't feel like a compromise at all. I also appreciate the quality of their pastries--so many coffee shops have pastries just for the sake of it, but here, they're actually delicious. The passion fruit kouign-amann blew my mind, and the almond croissant is stunning! Atmosphere-wise, it's my number one coffee shop. It's so peaceful, with comfortable couches and a second floor where you feel separated from the rest of the world. It's so cozy that people come here to spend the whole day working--which is both a blessing and a curse lol. I also come here to read sometimes, but if you're just trying to have your coffee, you might get pissed that all the seats are taken. I recommend Composition to literally everyone--including you, my fellow reader.

I also shared the almond croissant which was delicious and flakey with the right amount of sweetness. My friend got a bagel sandwich which looked filling and delicious!

The cortado was really smooth and not just straight up milk flavor. The iced latte tho was not great, I couldn't taste any of the coffee and it was pretty muted.

I get a decaf almond milk latte, and it tastes horrible. They don't even foam the almond milk, which I do at home just fine, so the entire cup is mostly milk to make up for the lack of foam and hardly any espresso. Basically $7 for a cup of nasty almond milk. Which I don't even think they use espresso as the "coffee" part, as it tastes like normal house coffee that's been sitting on a burner for too long. Very subtle flavor and a nasty burnt after taste. Highly disappointed when you spend over 20 bucks on 2 coffees and a snack. No wonder the Delray location is shutting down.

The staff were absolutely wonderful via phone and email addressing my questions and concerns. Upon arrival I was astonished at how cute this place was.

Unfortunately most of my guests got caught up in the torrential downpour and were running behind. The waiter assured me that we were quite alright to wait if we preferred. I decided to start with a cocktail. The testa Rossa was recommended. I ended up giving it to my husband as it was rather strong and I did not taste watermelon nor coconut. I went with the second recommendation of the strawberry bliss. Another strong drink which the gin overpowered the other flavors. I may skip the cocktails if I come back as I did not fancy either of the ones I tasted. I tried some of Lisa's sunflower seed toast which came with the cutest set up of butter and delicious apricot and strawberry jam.
