House-roasted coffees & local pastries in a hip, relaxed vibe





























"French Truck is one of the city’s most well-known brands, thanks in part to the unmistakable yellow truck and shops. Along with single-origin coffee, freshly baked croissants and bagels offer a great pick-me-up. Several flavors of roasted coffee beans are also available for shipping nationwide and include taste notes, like the Colombia Papayo with notes of pomegranate juice, mango, bubble gum, and white chocolate — isn’t that helpful?" - Eater Staff


"A recommended alternative to the famous Café Du Monde, known for its New Orleans Iced coffee and bacon, egg, and cheese biscuits." - Jenny Adams

"French Truck is one of the city’s most well-known brands, thanks in part to the identifiable shops and trucks. The LGD location fronts French Truck’s roasting facility, which provides beans for its own cold and hot coffee drinks as well as a thriving wholesale operation." - Eater Staff


"Workers at French Truck (217 Chartres Street) have filed for union recognition with the Teamsters and wrote, "We are fighting for a livable wage and a workplace that takes diversity and disability seriously." The move follows earlier organizing at nearby Starbucks locations, and the workers expect corporate to begin negotiations soon." - Clair Lorell

"Each location of French Truck—there are three, though the Uptown outpost is our favorite—is wonderfully cheerful, decked out in bright shades of yellow and blue. The coffee is directly sourced from farms throughout Africa and South America, the fresh beans are roasted in small batches for better flavor, and the milk comes from a local dairy. Every detail of the experience is carefully considered. Pick up a few bags of beans to stash in your freezer on the way out—it makes a great memento of your trip. "
