While the name of Coffee Park might make you think people just go there to sit on a shaded bench and sip latte, you’re more likely to find budding athletes practicing their baseball and soccer skills, kids using the ADA-compliant playground equipment, and local residents getting exercise by walking or jogging along the paths. The park was actually not named after the beverage, but for the former mayor of University Park, Roy C. Coffee, Sr. In his honor, the city built a neighborhood park with in-demand athletic fields, picnic facilities, and recreational areas that is open to the public year-round.
