The Compass Rose Café isn’t your average or ordinary restaurant. It’s a student structured restaurant located at the Williams S. Hutchings College and Career Academy. Here at Hutchings, our qualified chef instructors train students in the true craft of culinary arts. Each student is first tested through the National Restaurant Association’s ServSafe Manager Examination to ensure the food is prepared safely and sanitarily. Upon completing their coursework in Food Safety & Sanitation, students are provided the opportunity to practice new culinary techniques through our experiential learning platform, Compass Rose Café. In addition to receiving hands on training by professional chefs, students also obtain high school credit for their knowledge in Food Science. If all that wasn’t enough to impress prospective students and patrons, consider also that these young culinarians have the chance to obtain college credit, at no cost to them, by becoming dually enrolled with Central Georgia Technical College. So, please come support our students and experience the fine cuisine for yourself at the Compass Rose Café!

Each week that school is in session we open on Friday from 12:30-1:30 with a new four course menu that customers can experience for only $10.00. Menus change every week and cuisine will rarely be served twice in the same year so don’t miss out on the opportunity to try something new!
