The bistro, located at the heart of the Anglesey community, has seen its popularity skyrocket after becoming a social media hotspot.

A viral TikTok video revealed what customers can expect once they enter the cafe and since then Swifties from across the world have descended on the small Welsh town.

Lottie Summers, the owner of the business, told Wales Online: “There was a TikTok that was made and it just went viral so it’s all been growing into a monster over the last few weeks, and we’ve had huge deliveries from the Netherlands and America.”

Next to the themed cafe sits a shop which also sells Taylor Swift-inspired items known as “The Mock Turtle”, an Alice in Wonderland reference.

The sought-after eatery serves customers food and drinks along with homemade cookies.

Despite not being a major Taylor Swift fan until recently, Lottie’s cafe is now filled with memorabilia from the award-winning artist.

Her staff are avid fans of the pop star, with one member even driving an hour just to work there.

The snack bar plays Taylor Swift music all day and is full of handmade artwork paying homage to the superstar.

Lottie gets her produce from local suppliers and bakers which she claimed lifts people’s mood when they visit.

“When people see the hand-painted Taylor Swift biscuits they get so excited and come in and buy them in the dozen, can’t keep up,” she added.

Ryan Hetherington Taylor Swift Superfan

Many of Lottie’s current customers are cruise ship passengers who are surprised to find the Taylor-themed café in the Welsh town.

“The cruise ships are in at the moment and when people come in they are like; ‘Taylor Swift? Here?’ They just love it,” she said.

As hundreds of Swifties from around the globe race to visit Lottie’s Café, none are as devoted as Ryan Hetherington, who has spent £10,000 to be her superfan.

Every inch of his home is inspired by her, from the candle on his coffee table to the throws on his sofa and the Taylor-themed cups in his kitchen.

He bought tickets to seven dates of her Eras Tour, owns all her CDs and loves to cover his arms in the tour wristbands and bracelets he got from the gigs.

Ryan, 26, told The Sun on Sunday: “My friends would definitely say I’m Britain’s biggest Taylor Swift superfan and they may be right.

“I adore her — and have done so since I was 11 years old. So to be going to seven of her Eras Tour concerts is beyond a dream.

“To Swifties, Taylor’s tour is an even bigger event than man walking on the moon.

“I am making a special outfit for the show with 20,000 rhinestones.

“I am doing it by hand and it is going to match the one she wears to perform Cruel Summer.

“It’s taken ten hours so far . . . but it will be ready.”

Devotee Ryan, from East London, has shelled out £1,000 on tickets and over the years has spent more than £10,000 due to his devotion to the superstar.

His latest purchase was a vinyl copy of her The Tortured Poets Department album, costing £50.

Ryan, who has a master’s in aerospace engineering, believes the singer’s success is all down to her songwriting.

He says: “Her songs and their incredible lyrics are the soundtrack to so many Swifties’ lives.

“I come from Cumbria, where there weren’t many people who were openly gay.

“Being part of the Swifties community online created a really inclusive space that led me to feel comfortable simply being me.”

It comes after five labour MPs and Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey accepted tickets and hospitality worth more than £9,000 to watch Taylor Swift at Wembley.

And there is nothing like a celebrity romance to boost your profile – just ask Travis Kelce who has become a household name since dating Taylor Swift.
