Cooper Kupp Opens Dodo Coffee Shop in Fayetteville

After winning his second Super Bowl ring, Cooper Kupp is launching a coffee venture in Fayetteville, Arkansas, for his brand Dodo Coffee. He, his wife Anna, and family members—including his sister‑in‑law, her husband, and Anna’s parents—form the ownership group. The roughly 500‑square‑foot brick building, designed by architect Jeffrey Dungan, blends an old‑orthodox‑church look with a modern “cathedral to coffee” aesthetic. Kupp says the space is a community hub focused on premium coffee, top service, and genuine connections.

Dodo Coffee began in 2024 in a white‑brick storefront that also sold gold. Eminent domain forced its 2025 closure, sending the team to a trailer pop‑up while searching for a permanent home. The new shop reflects the brand’s meticulous approach: sourcing beans from Indonesia, Ethiopia, and Hawaii, crafting house syrups, and using farm‑fresh milk. Kupp stresses an intentional coffee experience, highlighting rare Geisha beans and a step‑by‑step brewing process that guarantees quality.

Kupp’s foray follows other NFL stars like Patrick Mahomes (Throne Sport Coffee) and Jimmy Butler (BIGFACE Coffee). He wants the shop to be a destination, not just a quick‑service counter, offering customers a space to explore and enjoy carefully curated coffee.

Dodo Coffee aims to combine artistry, community, and excellence, positioning the shop as a landmark in Fayetteville.
