Taylor Swift, Brittany Mahomes, and several other members of the Kansas City Chiefs enjoyed a girls' night out ahead of the new year at Rye restaurant in Leawood, Kan., a popular haunt of beau Travis Kelce, Page Six reports.
The restaurant was braced for a celebrity visit after receiving a warning call ahead of time, but co-owners Megan and Colby Garrelts had no idea that it was the "Daylight" songstress that they'd be greeting at their private entrance.
The trio shook hands before she, her security team, and a group of other Kansas City Chiefs wives and girlfriends were led to a separate dining area, where her presence was kept "on the down-low just out of respect for privacy,” according to one of the owners, who added that Swift was "very, very nice."
She and her Kansas City squad are said to have ordered goat cheese and a cheese plate as appetizers for the table before Swift chose a pasta dish for her entree, while most of the other WAGs ordered salmon.
The record-breaking touring artist also indulged in a French Blonde—a citrus-based cocktail made with gin or vodka. “From our understanding, [that is] her favorite cocktail,” Megan noted. Of course, Swift is also known for her penchant for a themed Cosmo or a simple vodka Diet Coke.
They also opted for a variety of desserts, including the eatery's famous banana cream and lemon meringue pie, and a to-go box of cinnamon rolls—a treat that Kelce is a known fan of—which Swift helped herself to before leaving.
“It was pretty cool because Travis … he always requests our cinnamon roll, so I would think that he must have said something to her since she was going to Rye,” Megan told the publication. “That was pretty fun, so we warmed it up.”
The restaurant has "some history" with Kelce and his team, having served them multiple times over the years. They said Kelce, specifically, often visits both their Leawood and Kansas City locations.
“He comes in pretty often to both. He’s awesome. He’s super nice,” she shared, revealing that, while he's been sitting in the private room recently, he typically "loves saying, ‘Hi,’ to people in the restaurant" and "normally he sits in the main dining room with his friends and handlers. He’s great.”
After their meals settled, Swift reportedly covered the entire tab—just another small example of her generous nature.
