Beyond the chicory-and-beignet tradition, New Orleans has grown a real specialty scene. A cluster of in-house roasters runs from Magazine Street through the Warehouse District and across the river to Algiers Point, most of them small shops roasting their own beans within a few miles of where they pour them.
