If you’ve ever wanted to enjoy a delicious steak while rubbing elbows with Kansas City’s finest, then get ready for something special. Kansas City Chiefs stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are taking their talents off the field and into the culinary world with their upcoming restaurant, 1587 Prime. A modern steakhouse in the heart of Kansas City, 1587 Prime promises to be the ultimate dining destination, blending the culinary expertise of global hospitality group Noble 33 with the dynamic energy of two of football’s biggest names.
A Dream Team in the Kitchen
In mid-March 2024, Kelce and Mahomes announced their partnership with Noble 33, a hospitality group known for creating experiential dining experiences. The duo is teaming up with the group’s visionary founders, Tosh Berman and Mikey Tanha, to bring their vision for 1587 Prime to life.
“We’re excited to be a part of this journey with Noble 33 to create a one-of-a-kind dining experience,” Kelce said. Mahomes added, “It made sense to us because we’ve been frequent visitors to their restaurants across the country and we wanted to bring something special to our own community.”
Kelce and Mahomes, who are frequent patrons of Noble 33’s establishments in cities like New York and Las Vegas, are now taking the opportunity to bring that same level of excellence to their hometown of Kansas City.
“We want to make it a place where Kansas City can call home and everyone can come and enjoy it,” Mahomes shared, emphasizing that the restaurant will offer an experience that’s upscale but still accessible to the local community.
Why 1587 Prime?
The name 1587 Prime carries a special significance—it’s a nod to both Mahomes’ and Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs jersey numbers (Mahomes wears #15 and Kelce wears #87). This clever combination reflects the bond between the two superstars, who have been the dynamic force behind the Chiefs’ success over the years.
Location and Vibe
Set to open in early 2025, 1587 Prime will be housed in the Loews Hotel on Wyandotte Street in Kansas City, Missouri. Spanning nearly 10,000 square feet across two floors, the restaurant will feature street-level access and several private dining rooms, making it an ideal venue for everything from casual meals to special events. The space will also boast a “cutting edge chef’s kitchen” and an impressive meat display, showcasing the prime cuts of meat that will make this steakhouse a standout in the Kansas City dining scene.
While the menu is still under wraps, the restaurant’s press release promises a dining experience that’s as elevated as the duo’s on-field performances, with some “hyper-subtle nods” to Mahomes’ and Kelce’s football achievements.
A Place for Everyone
When it comes to price points, Mahomes emphasized that they want the restaurant to be accessible, saying, “We don’t want to make it too upscale, too high priced that not everybody can go.” The goal is for 1587 Prime to be a place that Kansas City locals can frequent and truly feel at home in, creating a space for everyone to enjoy top-tier meals and connect with their community.
Opening in Time for Playoffs
Eager to see their vision come to life, Kelce and Mahomes are targeting early 2025 for the grand opening, just in time to coincide with next season’s football playoffs. Mahomes already envisions the restaurant as a post-game hangout for the team and fans alike. “Hopefully we can win some games at Arrowhead Stadium and then we get to go over and have a few drinks and food with it,” Mahomes said with excitement, looking forward to the atmosphere the restaurant will foster after a big game.
With the opening of 1587 Prime, Kelce and Mahomes are turning their passion for food and community into an experience that promises to be as legendary as their careers on the field. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, this upcoming steakhouse will be the perfect spot to celebrate Kansas City’s football culture, great food, and even better company.
The future is looking bright for these two superstar athletes, and 1587 Prime is sure to be a hit, combining their love for their city, food, and most importantly, bringing people together.
