Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce have already given Kansas City more than enough to cheer about. Three Super Bowls.
Multiple All-Pro nods. Countless highlight-reel plays.
Their chemistry on the field has turned the Chiefs into a dynasty and locked both of them into future spots in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But these two aren’t the type to just rest on success-they’re looking to make their impact felt beyond the gridiron.
Now, they’ve got a new arena: the food scene.
Mahomes and Kelce are stepping into yet another kind of spotlight with their upscale steakhouse venture, 1587 Prime-a nod to their jersey numbers, 15 and 87. It’s set to open soon inside the Loews Kansas City Hotel, and the early buzz already has some serious sizzle. Before the doors officially open to the public, the pair took a moment to do what anyone would dream of doing in their situation: savor the menu.
According to the restaurant’s official Instagram account, the duo enjoyed a tasting that left quite the impression. Mahomes kept it short and sweet with a “Coming soon..!!”
in the comments, while Kelce brought his trademark energy: “Man that food was better than I could have imagined!! KC get ready baby!!”
Look, launching a restaurant is challenging under the best of circumstances. High expectations come with the territory.
But if there’s a duo that knows how to thrive under pressure, it’s these two. Mahomes and Kelce have built their careers on delivering when it counts, and that mindset seems to be carrying over into the business world.
They’ve teamed up with hospitality group Noble 33 to bring their vision to life-a refined, modern steakhouse that they hope becomes a go-to destination for Kansas City residents and visitors alike. This isn’t some slapped-together vanity project. With their names on the front door and their reputations on the line, you can bet Mahomes and Kelce are aiming for nothing short of excellence.
As for those concerns about juggling a new entrepreneurial venture with the NFL grind? Let’s not forget whom we’re dealing with here.
Both players are seasoned veterans, and when it comes to handling the rhythm of training camp, they don’t just know the drill-they set the standard. Chiefs fans can stay locked in on what matters: another run at a championship.
Still, you can’t help but admire the timing. Right as Kansas City begins prepping to defend its title hopes yet again, the city is about to get a new spot that carries some championship pedigree of its own. Mahomes and Kelce have scorched opposing defenses for years-now they’re hoping to fire up Kansas City’s culinary scene just the same.
So, while the football season looms and the chase for a fourth Lombardi Trophy gets underway, don’t be surprised if 1587 Prime becomes part of the heartbeat of the city, much like the superstar pairing behind it. Kansas City’s heroes are betting big-and if their careers have shown us anything, it’s that they know how to deliver when the stakes (and steaks) are high.
