The owner of the café is Jean Paul Coupal. He started the café with his mother and his sister in 2004.
The Coupa logo was seen on a cup in the 2010 movie
The Social Network,
about Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.
The café serves Venezuelan coffee and a few Venezuelan dishes.
Because the café is in Silicon Valley, it has tried some of the latest inventions in technology. In 2013, Coupa Café started accepting Bitcoins, a digital payment system outside of traditional banks.
"We want to be part of the technology," Coupal said.
The café is also a place for people to hold meetings.
"I remember seeing Mark Zuckerberg sitting here and having meetings," said Eric Sokol, an associate professor of
obstetrics
and
gynecology
at Stanford University.
