KoKo Coffee
KoKo Coffee was founded by Daud Kyarizov, an immigrant from Turkmenistan, who opened the first location in Boston in 2022 after noticing during the pandemic that coffee ordered through delivery apps rarely matched the quality of a drink made fresh in front of a customer at a real café counter. The company built a menu drawing on Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Central Asian influences, distinguishing it from typical American coffee shop fare, and it has grown into a small multi-location Boston chain alongside a mobile coffee cart division and corporate café service offerings. KoKo Coffee's expansion into Boston's North Station area, adding to existing locations along the waterfront and in South Boston, reflected the company's steady growth from a single pandemic-era café concept into a recognized local specialty coffee brand. KoKo Coffee's combination of Kyarizov's immigrant founding story and its distinctive Central Asian and Mediterranean-influenced menu has made it one of the more distinctive coffee brands named Koko in the country.

Koko's Bavarian
Koko's Bavarian opened in Austin's Govalle neighborhood in 2021, and its name comes directly from its founder's own nickname: Konstantin Prinz von Bayern, a real prince of the historic Bavarian royal house, who goes by "Koko." The concept blends traditional German biergarten culture with Texas hospitality, built around specialty sausages, giant soft pretzels, Belgian-style fries, and rotating craft beer, aiming to recreate an authentic Bavarian beer hall atmosphere in Central Texas. After its original East Fifth Street location closed for renovations in 2023 and didn't reopen, Koko's Bavarian returned with a new South Lamar Boulevard beer hall and also expanded into a stadium-concessions concept, operating inside Austin's Moody Center arena on the University of Texas campus. Koko's Bavarian's combination of its literal founding by a real Bavarian prince nicknamed Koko and its expansion from a single beer garden into arena concessions has made it one of the most distinctive restaurants named Koko in the country.
