A narrow alley opens onto a rear patio behind a white building with blue trim, and the sound of conversation blends with faint fermenting tang — this is Broad Street Cider. Inside the tiny urban cidery, owners Jon and Diana lean over a flight of four 3‑oz pours: dry, bright, and lightly effervescent. The room is compact, the barrels close, and the tasting feels like being invited into someone’s home workshop.

A narrow alley opens onto a rear patio behind a white building with blue trim, and the sound of conversation blends with faint fermenting tang — this is Broad Street Cider.

Cider and mead are modern arrivals in New Orleans’ beverage scene, adapting Old World techniques to a humid Gulf Coast setting. Local makers often source apples from cooler regions and lean on cellar techniques to preserve acidity and bubble. The city’s layered culture — French, Spanish, Creole, and American — has always embraced fermented drinks; cider and mead are the latest voices in that conversation, served alongside simple cheese pairings rather than heavy fare.
Expect an intimate 45‑minute guided tasting for small groups (up to 10), with plenty of talk about process, orchard sourcing, and how fermentation responds to Louisiana humidity. The entrance is at 2723 S Broad Street via the alley or rear patio; check the cidery’s Instagram for pop‑up hours or to request private tastings.
Practical guidance: bring valid photo ID (strictly 21+), arrive 5–10 minutes early to find the rear entrance, and dress for a small indoor space with an outdoor patio (light layers). Public transit and street parking are nearby, but the alley approach can be uneven; wheelchair access is available—notify hosts if you need assistance. Book ahead and cancel 24 hours prior for a refund.
The guided tasting lasts approximately 45 minutes and includes four 3‑oz cider samples.
