Dollop Coffee Co.

Dollop roasts its own coffee and bakes fresh pastries and bread around the clock in its own bakeshop. It began as a cafe in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood and has grown to 14 cafes across the city. The business serves coffee and offers small-batch roasts for home, including Brazil Supremo, Ethiopia Guji, and Berried Alive. Its work now also includes partnering with local niche vendors and helping them bring products to Sprouts stores nationwide, starting in 2027. Dollop describes itself as both a coffee shop and a brand accelerator. Its cafes use compostable packaging, and the company highlights partnerships with local suppliers. The business connects its neighborhood cafe roots with coffee roasting, baking, and support for local makers.
