Dodo Coffee is a family-owned specialty coffee roaster based in Fayetteville, Arkansas, founded in 2024 by NFL wide receiver Cooper Kupp, his wife Anna, and her family members. The brand emphasizes intentionality and quality, focusing on non-pesticidal, clean farming practices and high-precision roasting that yields Q-graded coffees. After their original storefront was displaced by a road expansion project, the company maintained operations through a mobile trailer before successfully launching a new flagship location in 2026. Today, the brand serves as both a local community hub and a national retailer, offering premium whole-bean coffee and a subscription service known as The Flock.
