See the Heartwarming Moment Taylor Swift Turns Babysitter at Travis Kelce’s Steakhouse Launch, Holding Baby Golden Raye and Playing with Sterling & Bronze – Plus Photos of Staff Gushing Over Her Generous Tip and Praising the Popstar as ‘Funny, Gracious, and Approachable’ – Full Details and Photos Inside

It was supposed to be the soft launch of Travis Kelce’s brand-new steakhouse, 1587 Prime, but Taylor Swift quickly became the highlight of the night. In a heart-melting twist, the global superstar slipped out of the spotlight to turn babysitter — holding baby Golden Raye Mahomes and playing with her siblings Sterling and Bronze, as proud parents Patrick and Brittany Mahomes looked on.
Guests say it was one of the most tender moments of the evening. Swift, dressed in a chic blue denim mid-thigh dress and wedges, cradled little Golden with a natural ease, gently rocking the baby in her arms. At one point, she crouched down to Sterling and Bronze’s level, engaging them in playful chatter while flashing the warm smile her fans know so well. The sight of the pop icon bonding with the Mahomes children made the glamorous launch feel like a family reunion.
But that wasn’t the only reason Swift had everyone talking.
Staff Can’t Stop Praising Taylor Swift
Throughout the night, Swift mingled with guests, laughing with players’ wives and greeting staff members with the same warmth she gives fans at her concerts. According to insiders, she went out of her way to thank servers personally — and left what one described as a “very generous tip.”
By the end of the night, members of the steakhouse team were buzzing with stories of the singer’s kindness. Several were overheard calling her “funny, gracious, and approachable,” while one staffer reportedly gushed, “She didn’t act like a superstar at all — she acted like family.”
Travis Kelce’s Big Night
The event marked the intimate soft launch of 1587 Prime, the much-anticipated steakhouse Kelce co-owns with his Chiefs teammate and close friend Patrick Mahomes. The restaurant’s name is a nod to their jersey numbers — 87 for Kelce, 15 for Mahomes — and the opening drew a who’s-who of Kansas City’s sports elite.
Arriving hand-in-hand with Kelce, Swift and her fiancé made an entrance that immediately stole the spotlight. Travis, keeping it casual in a green striped shirt and cap, beamed as he escorted Swift up the grand staircase to greet friends, family, and guests. Later, he laughed and swapped stories with teammates while never straying too far from Taylor, flashing her smiles across the room whenever they were apart.
The “Insane” Menu Prices Fans Can’t Stop Talking About
While the night was filled with family warmth, fans online were buzzing about another detail: the eye-popping menu prices. Among the luxury offerings, the star of the show was “The Alchemy,” a cocktail named after Swift’s song from her 2024 album The Tortured Poets Department.
The drink blends citrus vodka, aronia berry, cranberry, strawberry, lime, and oolong tea — and is served with a blowtorch presentation that literally sets part of the glass aflame. Though insiders wouldn’t confirm the exact price, whispers of a triple-digit cost for the cocktail sent fans into shock on social media.
Other drinks also carried playful nods to the owners: “Showtime” for Mahomes, “Big Yeti” for Kelce, and “Queen B” for Brittany. Each was crafted with the same high-end flair, cementing 1587 Prime as both a foodie destination and a celebrity experience.
A Night That Felt Like Family
In the end, what made the launch unforgettable wasn’t just the glitz, the prices, or even the celebrity factor — it was the human moments. Swift, rocking baby Golden and giggling with Sterling and Bronze, Travis catching up with friends, and the Mahomes family blending seamlessly with the Kelces.
The night felt less like a business debut and more like a glimpse into the private world of America’s favorite sports and music couple. And with Swift’s generous tip and warm praise echoing among the staff, it’s safe to say she left just as lasting an impression on 1587 Prime as the restaurant itself hopes to leave on Kansas City.
