The owner of what's been dubbed Taylor Swift's 'favourite' kebab shop has seen his business become a hotspot for Swifties worldwide. As the pop icon returns to the UK for her London Eras Tour performances, fans are descending on the modest shop to sample what's reportedly the singer's preferred dish.

Kentish Delight's owner, Ahmed Khan, said the Tortured Poets Department artist was a "regular" at his establishment. The 55 year old recalled how Taylor would drop by "multiple times a month" during her relationship with former partner Joe Alwyn, the British actor who hails from the nearby Tufnell Park area.

In the lead-up to her Eras Tour gigs at Wembley Stadium this weekend, it has come to light that she's placed "a huge order" with the kebab shop. While the exact number of meals is yet to be confirmed, Mr Khan mentioned that chicken shish kebabs and falafel wraps are on the list.

Mr Khan even shared details of Taylor's go-to meal, revealing that she often opted for a chicken doner kebab . It was loaded with salad, garlic mayo, and a touch of chilli sauce.

Reflecting on past visits, he said: "Taylor used to come in all the time when she lived in London. Her boyfriend lived only ten minutes away. The two of them would come in together - multiple times a month sometimes.", reports Bristol Live.

Mr Khan revealed that his kebab shop has been a hotspot for Taylor Swift fans, or 'Swifties', from "all over the world" since the pop star filmed parts of her 'Endgame' music video there in 2017. The video, which also features Ed Sheeran and Future, shows Taylor partying in Miami, Tokyo, and finally London, with Kentish Delight on Kentish Town Road making a cameo.

He said: "I have a Taylor fan in here everyday. They come from all over the world - Europe, North America, South America. France, Spain, Mexico, Chile. One fan came all the way from Brunei just to come to our kebab shop."
