Balcony of the coffee shop

I had the best Latte of my life at this beautiful coffee shop in this beautiful neighborhood. I spilled my coffee accidentally at their store and not only they made a new one, they were too nice and apologized me for the mess I had made. Very nice environment and extremely nice people and coffee that is made with so much care.

Current crop is a great place to pick up freshly roasted coffee. They will even teach you how to roast it yourself. We have attended several of their classes which are highly educational. I really like the roasting and cupping classes and my wife enjoyed the coffee cocktail class a lot.

What you really need is a smell feature on yelp. If it existed, you would be instantly transported into a coffee wonderland. This is the perfect spot to get your food science nerd on and pick country of origin, type of bean, all the things and make your perfect coffee at home. They offer classes and on site instruction. A class would make a great activity for visitors celebrating birthdays or weddings or whatever. The staff is great, answering all my very basic questions... Because I don't actually drink coffee. I know the horror. But they also sell coffee related accessories so a pour over set up might be in someone's future. Parking is on the street and the shop is in a vintage house so it's a few steps up. I don't know if they have accessibility options.

If you want to experience something fun in New Orleans that not a lot of people know about -- GO HERE!!!!! Their coffee roasting class is so informative and you get to keep all the coffee you roast! I learned so much about coffee from different regions and the difference between light, medium, and dark roast coffee. I have recommended this class to so many friends and they all have loved it! They also have coffee from all over the world in the shop -- so you can browse around if you're curious. This is not just another coffee shop in New Orleans -- it is a unique concept with so much to learn from!

My relationship with Current Crop Roasting Shop began a couple of months ago while visiting NOLA. What a wonderful experience!! Selected beans from 3 different countries and was able to have them roasted right away. The staff were all knowledgeable and helpful. The aromas of roasting coffee create a nice environment. Since then, they've supplied me with a roaster and green beans. Stop in and/or visit online...awesome establishment!!

We did a coffee roasting class @currentcroprs today. I highly recommend it. So much fun. The class is small and intimate. About 8 of us. The instructor is very knowledgeable and patience with our questions. We learn how to roast green coffee beans to light, medium, and dark. Super cute shop and friendly staff that will help you choose the right beans for ya. They have a large variety of green beans to choose from at a very affordable price . Once you purchase it, they'll roast it in store for you, on the spot. Or you can roast it to your liking. No extra charge for roasting, just pay the price of green beans! They also sell some pretty cool roasting equipment and more. We'll definitely be back. Check out their social media for upcoming classes such as cupping and art coffee classes!

Our group went here to learn about roasting our own coffee. Very interesting free tour to learn about roasting coffee in very small personal size batches. We were amazed at how many varieties of options are available for you to do at a very small level that you can do for your own personal consumption. It's also a fun little thing to do while visiting in town. Our group of four all gave it a thumbs up.

Green coffee from around the world!

This was an amazing experience. We popped in thinking we were going to simply buy a cup of coffee. Once we got the vibe Ezra helped us roast a few different beans to perfection. He is super knowledgeable and patient. Take the time to go here and give this place your business. 10/10

Our light medium roast

Please do yourself a favor if you're a coffee lover and go visit this place in New Orleans! We wandered in as my mission for our trip was "bring home some good beans". Luckily I found the perfect place. The person upfront that day was awesome! Super helpful. We chose two of the I believe 70 something different beans they offer. The person helped us roast our beans to a ledium roast (thanks for laughing at my bad pun too). We received so much cool information about roasting techniques, learned about their experience classes available, and walked out with two EXTREMELY CHEAP bags of beans. In my home town a bag of beans is anywhere from $20-30 but my two bags were "some of the more expensive in the store" at just $7 and $10 that was the craziest part.

I was wondering around the WB with Re and she suggested we go "to the candy store." I was confused…read morebecause it was already after 8pm and what would be open? Royal Roastery that's who! This unassuming spot in a strip mall was gorgeous inside. And it serves coffee, pastries, ice cream plus y'know candy. AND they roast their own nuts, spices and I guess coffee beans. There were definitely folks hanging out and enjoying a Turkish style coffee... I guess either the caffeine doesn't hit them the way it does me or they had no plans to sleep. The candy isn't labeled 100% correctly but you kind of know that gummy worms are not gummy strawberries. I tried an assortment bag of gummies and some of chocolates and the price was by the pound. Re got some freshly roasted unsalted cashews and they were delicious! Parking is easy in the strip mall lot. And as you step in you definitely leave Louisiana and step into another country.

Royal Roastery is a bit of a mixed bag. They've got some savory nut options- I tried the barbecue…read morecashews. They were fine. They also carry some gummy and chocolate varieties, some spices, some boxed coffee, some Middle Eastern pastries. Only some things were labeled with either what it was or the price of it, so that was a little disorienting. I was surprised to find a cafe and gelato bar inside. The gelato flavors were incredible. I settled on popcorn caramel and baklava in a waffle bowl. An employee said that everything was made in-house. The price was standard considering that all was made there. The service was weird. I kept getting served after people who'd gotten there after me. My ice cream scoops were significantly smaller than my boyfriend's. Returning isn't high on my list of priorities, but I'm glad I tried them.

Undergrowth Coffee is the perfect neighborhood place to get a little work done, relax, or converse…read morewith a barista about international coffee varieties or home-made oat milk - all while sipping on an iced coffee or taking bites from a delicious baked treat. I stopped by earlier this morning, loved it, and will definitely be coming in again. As soon as I walked into Undergrowth, I was greeted by an incredibly friendly barista who directed me to seating in the front and rear of the space. The shop has outdoor seating on Magazine street, as well as high-top seating by the window, a couple bar stools behind their espresso machine, and a few two-person tables along the wall. Among art, photography, and other trinkets - plants seemed to be thriving in the ample natural light of the storefront, on the counter of the barista station, atop the fridge or hanging in the window - which I felt contributed to the lively ambiance of the space. I also appreciated the green-painted walls, vintage light fixtures and tables, and antique tile floors. I sat at one of the two-seaters, which I found perfect for working on my laptop while watching people come and go from the shop. I didn't venture into the rear part of the space, but saw a few people go back there to eat food or drink coffee at what I assumed to be larger tables. Apart from plants and paint, however, what made Undergrowth stand out to me was its selection of coffees and other treats curated by a philosophy of ecological and social sustainability that came through in every aspect, large or small, in the running of the shop - from their sourcing of coffee from family or woman-owned farms or their 50-cent discount for re-using a cup. Not only do they make their own oat milk, but their cow-derived dairy is sourced from Progress Milk Barn, a family-owned farm in McComb County, Mississippi - less than a two hour's drive away. When I came by, they had four roasts on their shelves that one of the co-owners took me on a tour of: an Agaseke variety sourced from a woman-owned farm in Rwanda, a Costa Rican top-shelf, and your standard Honduran and Guatemalan beans - all of which had some verification of ethical origin. The coffees were relatively inexpensive compared to other ethical varieties I've seen, and were available in 12 oz bags. I went home with the bag of the Rwandan, because I really enjoyed its description as a coffee with a hearty semblance of roasted sweet potatoes balanced with fruitier notes of peach, prune, and lemon. I had two coffees while hanging out at the shop - a spiced cinnamon-cacao cold brew and an iced americano - and a brownie made with sumac and belgian-swiss ruby chocolate. Both of the coffees were wonderful, and I would recommend either. I especially loved the sumac brownie, which was a hard choice while trying to decide between cookies and cherry-chocolate or cheddar-jalapeno scones. I also appreciated the kindness of the staff at Undergrowth. They greeted regulars and welcomed strangers - and were incredibly charitable to myself and others who had questions about their coffee or their business. A young woman and a child came in and were greeted by name and kudos on the kid's Lilo and Stitch t-shirt. A couple walked in with a dog, who received a complimentary biscuit for being "not just a good boy, a great boy!" A group of some twenty younger guys, who were playing basketball across the street, were all greeted with offers of water and a place to cool off from the heat. One of the co-owners sat on a bar stool and gave the full history, description and care instructions for one of the plants on the countertop to a curious family. They say that kindness is a virtue that pays dividends, and that principle was evident in both the staff and the people who visited Undergrowth. I will definitely be coming by again. Undergrowth is in a perfect location on the intersection of Napoleon and Magazine, right next to a park, a bar and other shops and restaurants. I'd bring my friends here, have an interview or meeting here, or recommend it to anyone looking for a welcoming and comfortable space in Uptown. Say hi to the co-owners if you come through!

Undergrowth Coffee is a chill coffeehouse, eclectic decor, friendly staff and great coffee choices.read more

I always like to pick up a bag of beans when I travel so this was the spot. This bag is some of the best beans I've bought in a while so I was very happy. I would come back just for the barista. Alexis was the barista and she was so sweet and fun! They also gave Lucas a free birthday drink. I got the salted honey latte and it was perfect portions. It was amazing not only the flavor but the coffee taste gave it a 5/5 in my book.

Goodness I hate to say this. Highly recommended by many people but just didn't hit the spot for me…read more First, the barista was so lovely and kind, and I could tell they enjoyed working here and making drinks for people. The space, adorable. They had a little bit mighty roaster working in the back. Respect for that. The coffee: vibe is hot and iced drinks in compostable paper cups and pasta straws. I think this is very cool and environmentally conscious but it also gave me an idea of the coffee I was going to get. We ordered two iced oat milk vanilla lattes. The oat felt a little watery to me? Not sure what they use. We didn't really drink much before tossing it but strange enough I'm still glad I tried it. I think my drink just needed more ice and more vanilla so that everything would be a little more pronounced. I did appreciate that I could taste the espresso. It definitely had a fruity, juicy, lighter 3rd wave vibe. I think I would better enjoy a simple shot or flat white from here. Just wasn't what I was looking for.
