NBA forward Jimmy Butler is expanding his BIGFACE coffee brand beyond Miami with a first Texas location in Cypress. The company announced that the new café will open in November, positioned directly outside the Fairfield Market H‑E‑B on the town’s main commercial corridor.
Local hiring and operating hours
According to the press release, BIGFACE is currently in the hiring stage, seeking baristas and support staff from the Cypress community. The café will serve espresso drinks, cold brew, and pour‑over coffee from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, offering residents a convenient spot for morning coffee and an afternoon pick‑me‑up.
What BIGFACE offers
In addition to the brick‑and‑mortar café, BIGFACE runs an online store that sells whole‑bean coffee, branded gear, and apparel. The brand’s flagship location remains in Miami, where Butler first launched the venture during the pandemic‑induced NBA bubble. He began roasting coffee for teammates who lined up for drinks from his personal espresso machine, a story the company highlights as the inspiration for the business.
Impact on the Cypress community
The new café is expected to create several dozen jobs, supporting families in the area and adding to Cypress’s growing dining scene. Local officials have expressed enthusiasm for the development, noting that BIGFACE’s presence aligns with the city’s goal of attracting nationally‑recognized brands while maintaining a family‑friendly atmosphere.
Residents will also benefit from the café’s extended hours, which fill a gap in the market for quality specialty coffee outside traditional office‑hour windows. The location’s proximity to the Fairfield Market H‑E‑B makes it a convenient stop for shoppers looking for a premium coffee experience.
