French Truck Coffee – Canal Street

In mid-2023, an iconic customer of Mayer Building Company, French Truck Coffee, hired us to renovate an old unused corner of Canal Street to the newest (and sharpest, if you ask me) French Truck Coffee. This home grown New Orleans brand building and operating on this historic corner in a storied old building is an […]

In July 2022, Mayer Building Co delivered is first izakaya (the only one in New Orleans) for Sukeban. MBC worked with Chef / Owner Jacqueline Blanchard and Architect StudioWTA to turn this former bookstore into Oak Street’s cutting edge sake and sushi hang-out. Though the feel of the space is streamlined, straightforward and simple almost, […]

In March 2022, Mayer Building Company completed the storm repairs to this heavily damaged McAlister’s Deli on Airline in Metairie. Mainly the work consisted on regular and branded finishes to get this popular sandwich shop back in action.

MBC was excited to deliver the premier coffee company’s Mid City debut. French Truck Coffee opened on Lafitte Greenway just in time for 2021 King Cake Season. So glad to have FTC in the neighborhood. The new cafe boasts the brand’s bold colors, artful finish selections and is now all systems go. Thanks to landlord, FTC, […]

In May 2019, Mayer Building Company completed our second City Greens build out. The work for the new restaurant was mainly re-decorating and branding, but also included overhauling the underground plumbing and electrical systems. We salvaged many of the existing parts and pieces of the former restaurant (a green move, for sure) while still developing […]

At French Truck Coffee on Government Street in Baton Rouge, Mayer Building Company installed a new deck, planters and oversized Italian umbrellas to create for cafe space for this burgeoning coffee brand.

In the Spring of 2018, Mayer Building Company completed Metairie’s first Shipley DoNuts. Located on Metairie Road, the Project included clean, branded finishes that no one will ever look at, ya know…’cause of the donuts. This highly anticipated location finished with minor punch items and is rolling full steam ahead. Congrats to the local Shipley DoNuts team and thanks!

In October 2017, MBC completed a catering kitchen for Loyola. The project was a fast track improvement in a small space that included new refrigeration & warming equipment, new custom casework and tile applications and a sheet vinyl floor. The finishes are clean-cut and attractive. The project was done with no change orders and minimal punchlist. Photos by Leslie Mayer.

I just want to thank you and your staff for going above and beyond during this build out process. With us being in a different city, y’all have been awesome to work with. Y’all have accommodated every change within our construction window and have helped us greatly on things that couldn’t have gotten done without you and your staff’s help. Thanks so much. It is greatly appreciated.

Philip Jacobson, WEXNER COMPANIES/JOSEPH

Thank you very much for doing such a great job. The rooms look great and the inconvenience to us was minimal at worst. Your personnel was friendly and easy to work with. Fred was really great. We are very pleased with the result. Thank you and I hope to work with you again on another project.

Lehan Wilson, HOMEOWNER

I was concerned about doing a renovation at a place that was many states away from where I lived. I needed someone that I could count on and could handle every aspect of the renovation. I also required someone who was familiar with the permit requirements for an historical building in New Orleans….I would highly recommend Ryan Mayer to any potential client. I was extrememly pleased with the work he performed and would use him again for any additional contracting needs that I may have.

Margie Dominach

We are always excited to partner up with MBC to work on our new location developments or redesigns,
as we can always count on quality, timeliness, and most importantly, the right level of communication
in the client relationship.
As we grow City Greens, we look forward to working with the Mayer Building Company in the very near future.

Abhi Bhansali, CITY GREENS

It is with pleasure, and of my own initiative, I am writing this letter of gratitude
for the work you and your company performed at 4905-11 Magazine Street.

As the architect of that renovation, I worked closely with you, your superintendent
Fred Goodrow, and your staff during the months of construction. Your knowledge, experience, and good judgement, and that of your
employees, were critical in addressing these issues and contributed significantly
to the successful completion of the work.

Both the building owner and I are very proud of the results and are grateful to
you and your staff for a job very well done. I sincerely look forward to the next
time it is my good fortune to work with you.

Brooks Graham, GRAHAM LITTLE STUDIO

Thanks for everything, Ryan! We look forward to working with you again in the future.

Jewelynn Nice, TRINITY EPISCOPAL SCHOOL

We found the team at Mayer Building Company to be communicative,
eﬃcient, and responsive throughout our project. Capsule was able to
eﬀectively remotely manage this project extremely eﬀectively, resulting in an
on time delivery with only very minimum punch list. Please accept this letter
as recognition of your company’s evident skills in construction
management, quality control and safety.
