Quoting the &> as you did (\&\>) removes the special meaning of
those characters to the shell, so the shell passes them to g++ which
sees them as a file name. Also, without the &> redirection, the
shell also sees file.log as an argument to be passed to g++ and g++
can't find that file, either.
If I remove that quoting from &> so that the :let command in that
function becomes
:let cmd_string = "g++ -std=c++11 " . expand("%") . ' &> ' . expand("%:r") . ".log"
then create an empty file.cpp, open it in vim, source the Compile()
function and execute
:call Compile()
I get an output of
:!echo g++ -std=c++11 file.cpp &> file.log
:!g++ -std=c++11 file.cpp &> file.log
shell returned 1
Press ENTER or type command to continue
and file.log contains
cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-std=c++11"
(I must have an old version of gcc.) If I use the function from the
OP, with the added let, I get the same error message in file.log.
Nothing is coming to mind as a reason for it behaving differently
for you. You mentioned that you use spf13. Have you tried your
function alone, without your ~/.vimrc or any plugins, that is,
started as
vim -N -u NONE
?

Gary
