Outside of the NFL, Patrick Mahomes has had his hand in the restaurant industry.
As previously reported by AFROTECH™, the Texas native is part of the franchise group KMO Burger, which aims to own 30 Whataburger restaurants by the end of the decade.
However, now, Mahomes is establishing a restaurant of his own in his home away from home.
Mahomes and fellow Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce are opening 1587 Prime, a steakhouse in Kansas City, MO, according to Today. Named after their jersey numbers, the Super Bowl champions’ upcoming restaurant is in partnership with Noble 33, a global hospitality group.
“Travis and I have become frequent visitors of Noble 33 restaurants in other cities so it only made sense to bring something special to our own community in Kansas City,” Mahomes shared, according to Today.
Kelce chimed in, “We’re excited to be a part of this journey with Noble 33 to create a one-of-a-kind dining experience, and what better place to start than our very own Kansas City.”
The outlet details that 1587 Prime is set to feature numerous private dining rooms, a meat display and a chef’s kitchen that spotlights Mahomes’ and Kelce’s NFL victories in a subtle way. What’s more, according to Noble 33, the restaurant will have one of the largest wine collections in Missouri.
ESPN reports that Noble 33 will be responsible for 1587 Prime’s menu, restaurant experience and design.
“Noble 33 is leading the development of the design, experience, menu and operation, but conceptually, Patrick and Travis’ involvement and input has been instrumental,” Noble 33 Co-Founder Tosh Berman said, per ESPN.
He continued, “Both of them are longtime regulars of our other restaurants, so a great starting point was bringing elements they loved from those experiences and abstracting them in an original way for 1587 Prime.”
Located downtown at Loews Kansas City Hotel,1587 Prime is set to open its doors in early 2025. In addition, Noble 33 aims to further its own expansion with multiple restaurants opening across U.S. cities in the near future.
