Inside Taylor Swift's new girl gang as she parties in London during Eras Tour break
Taylor Swift is taking a well-deserved break from her Eras Tour, swapping the stage for a night out in London. The pop princess, who has been wowing crowds in Edinburgh, decided to let her hair down in the capital on Tuesday night.
The "Love Story" singer, currently in a relationship with American Footballer Travis Kelce, believed to be staying at a plush £3.3million farmhouse cottage in the Cotswolds between gigs, traded the tranquil countryside for the bustling city. She was spotted heading to Casa Cruz in trendy Notting Hill with a group of celebrity friends, including a pal of her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn.
Photos reveal the star-studded gang arriving at the popular eatery in black cabs, ready to tuck into some of the restaurant's priciest dishes. Among the menu items are a 250g beef fillet steak costing £50 and a whopping £140 1.2kg cote de boeuf.
Taylor looked absolutely stunning for her night out in the city, donning an outfit worth nearly £3,000 including a pricey corset priced at £1,150 and a cosy wool jacket costing £1,500. Joining Taylor for dinner was her London-based bestie Cara Delevingne, whom she surprised with a visit before kicking off her Eras Tour in Scotland, and long-time friend Lena Dunham.
Also joining the glitzy outing was Kate Moss, Stella McCartney and Phoebe Waller Bridge, plus her ex's pal Andrew Scott. Close friends Este and Danielle Haim and musician Chrissie Hynde completed the guestlist, which likely racked up a staggering bill possibly mounting up over £5,000 given the prices on the dinner spot's menu.

It's thought Taylor has now made the 80-mile journey back to her Cotswolds retreat ahead of her first show at Liverpool's Anfield Stadium on Thursday. Travis Kelce is expected to join her in the £3,250-a-night farmhouse, located near Chipping Norton.
She's thought to have rented the home for the entire duration of her stateside trip, ending in London on August 20. Taylor will reportedly use the home as a base for respite between gigs and she could already be there after wrapping her first three shows in Scotland, before kicking things off again at Liverpool's Anfield Stadium on Thursday.
The countryside retreat is near private members club Soho Farmhouse, worlds away from a busy city in a countryside backdrop loved by the Beckhams, Amanda Holden and of course home to Jeremy Clarkson and his Diddly Squat Farm and farm shop.
"Taylor has booked the cottage while she is over in the UK," a source spilled to The Sun. "She wants a place to unwind away from the tour and the countryside is her happy place. Taylor loves dressing up in sequins on stage but is most at home in muddy boots in the fresh air," the insider dished.
Fans know all too well that Taylor adores a bit of country life, having previously enjoyed a rural getaway in Worcestershire with her British ex Joe, 33, back in 2021.
