But diners were stunned when one unexpected item showed up on the menu — a dish inspired by one of Travis’s favorites, originally made by Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift’s Culinary Touch at 1587 Prime Steakhouse
Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce are no strangers to making headlines, but their latest venture, 1587 Prime, a modern American steakhouse, has the city buzzing for a surprising reason. Located in the Loews Kansas City Hotel, the 10,000-square-foot restaurant, set to open in late summer 2025, promises an upscale yet welcoming dining experience. During a recent menu tasting, Mahomes and Kelce savored prime cuts and decadent butters, but it was an unexpected dish—a dessert inspired by Taylor Swift, Kelce’s girlfriend—that left diners and fans stunned, adding a pop culture twist to the steakhouse’s offerings.
Named after Mahomes’ and Kelce’s jersey numbers, 15 and 87, 1587 Prime is a collaboration with Noble 33, a hospitality group known for high-end eateries like Toca Madera and Meduza Mediterrania. The duo’s hands-on approach was evident during a July 2025 tasting, where they sampled wagyu smash burgers, togarashi fried chicken, and a steak flight, their reactions shared in a lively Instagram video. Mahomes, grinning, declared, “From the first bite, I knew it would be good,” while Kelce, pointing to a hibiscus butter, urged, “You need to try some of that dog.” Their enthusiasm set the stage for a menu that blends classic steakhouse fare with personal touches, including an Andy Reid cheeseburger, a nod to their beloved coach.
The surprise, however, came with the dessert menu, featuring a dish dubbed “Taylor’s Chai Sugar Cookie Delight.” Inspired by a chai sugar cookie recipe Swift famously shared on social media years ago, the dessert is a decadent parfait layering spiced cookie crumbles, creamy vanilla mousse, and a drizzle of caramel, served with a glazed cookie on the side. Kelce, who has raved about Swift’s baking skills on his New Heights podcast, reportedly pushed for the dish’s inclusion. “Trav kept talking about these cookies Taylor made him,” Mahomes revealed during the tasting, laughing. “We had to get it on the menu—it’s too good not to share.” The dessert, with its subtle nod to Swift’s personal touch, has sparked excitement among fans, particularly Swifties, who see it as a sweet tribute to the couple’s romance.
The restaurant’s design complements its menu, with a stadium tunnel-inspired entrance, brass tick markers, and red-marble tabletops echoing the Chiefs’ colors. Subtle football references, like woven leather accents mimicking a pigskin, dot the space, alongside a 10-foot meat display and a grand piano for nightly live music. Private dining rooms, including a VIP space with a two-way mirror, cater to high-profile guests, fueling speculation that Swift herself might dine there. Noble 33’s Sacha Tanha emphasized the duo’s involvement, noting, “Patrick and Travis gave us great feedback, ensuring every dish feels like Kansas City.” The menu, while upscale, aims to be accessible, with Mahomes insisting, “We want everyone to feel at home here.”
The inclusion of Swift’s dessert has already made 1587 Prime a cultural hotspot. Fans flooded the restaurant’s Instagram, with one commenting, “Taylor’s cookies on the menu? I’m booking a table NOW!” The dish not only reflects Kelce’s personal connection but also taps into Kansas City’s pride in its adopted pop icon, who has been spotted cheering at Chiefs games alongside Brittany Mahomes. As the restaurant gears up for its grand opening, the dessert has become a symbol of the personal touches Mahomes and Kelce are bringing to their venture.
1587 Prime is more than a steakhouse; it’s a celebration of Kansas City’s spirit, the Chiefs’ legacy, and the unexpected charm of a superstar couple. With Swift’s cookie-inspired dessert stealing the show, Mahomes and Kelce are proving that their partnership—on the field and in the kitchen—knows no bounds, delivering a dining experience that’s as heartfelt as it is delicious.
