French Truck Coffee

"The Garden District has a new coffee option today (November 14), with roaster and brewer French Truck Coffee now open on Magazine Street near Sixth. The coffee shop takes over a former CC’s Coffee House Space, and opens right on schedule after it was announced a month back. As with other French Truck locations, it features a sunshiney yellow facade, with pastry and coffee offerings inside, similar to its other outlets. This is French Truck’s fourth location in New Orleans — a fifth is on the way to Poydras Street in the near future. The company has been branching out in the last couple of years — further afield, it’s now operating in Memphis and Baton Rouge, with one location apiece." - Tim Forster

"French Truck Coffee, a small batch coffee roaster, is expanding with a new location in the Garden District of New Orleans. This will be the fifth location in the city, adding to its presence in Baton Rouge and Memphis." - Tim Forster

"French Truck Coffee is a burgeoning coffee empire based out of New Orleans, owned by Geoffrey Meeker. It has six locations, including one in a 100-year-old double shotgun house with rocking chairs on the front porch. Meeker oversees a barista training campus certified by the Specialty Coffee Association of America, offering two or three classes a month. The Dryades Street café features a full-blown kitchen and an all-day breakfast menu, with items like a maple syrup–drizzled waffle sandwich. French Truck Coffee hosts at least one cupping per month in each city where it has a presence." - Alex Schechter
