Dubai’s coastline is currently preparing for a serious heatwave of the culinary kind. Following a massive debut at UNTOLD Dubai and successful runs in major malls, the cult favorite Korean BBQ concept CupBop is officially landing at The Walk, JBR. Opening on 22 January, this flagship store marks the brand’s first standalone location in the city, promising to bring its unmistakable yellow-cup energy to one of the most vibrant pedestrian stretches in the region.
Modern foodies are increasingly gravitating toward a “clean beauty” aesthetic in their street food, looking for bold, authentic flavors that are served with transparency and fun. CupBop addresses this by offering a customizable experience that is as “eco-friendly” to your schedule as it is satisfying to your cravings. The process is famously simple: pick a base, choose a protein like the B-BOP bulgogi beef or DOOCHI tofu, select a sauce level, and give the cup a vigorous shake to lock in the flavor.
The brand’s journey from a single food truck in Utah to a Shark Tank success story and global phenomenon is rooted in playful energy. At the new JBR flagship, this spirit is amplified through bright, street-style interiors designed for those looking to spice up their beach day. Whether you are a resident or a tourist, the menu offers a refreshing take on Korean classics with a quirky twist.
- Customizable bowls with protein options including beef, chicken, and tofu
- Famous sauce levels including the legendary level seven point five
- Playful sides like Cheetos flavored K-Dawgs and OG Chicken Skewers
- Sweet finishes featuring Hotteok pancakes and fish shaped ice cream
Beyond the iconic cups, the JBR location serves as a hub for the brand’s larger-than-life personality. From the crispy KRUNCH BOP to the tangy ROCK BOP, the menu caters to every texture preference. For those who want to cool down after testing the level ten sauce, the Binggrae fish-shaped ice cream provides the perfect coastal reprieve. This reflects a commitment to bold innovation by taking traditional Korean BBQ and making it fast, portable, and entirely fuss-free.
Experience the taste sensation that has everyone talking and see if you can handle the heat of the signature black cups.
