A TikTok spokesperson said: "We are open about the fact that we don't get every moderation decision right and have reinstated the Wakey Wines account.

"We hope they continue to use TikTok to promote their business."

Why is Wakey Wines famous?

The shop is owned by Nazir, who has gained popularity through his selling of Prime sports drink.

Prime, created by YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul, has been increasingly difficult to get hold of due to high demand, meaning supermarkets have sold out.

The store is selling the product at increasingly inflated prices such is the demand, with people travelling from all over the country to visit.

Cans have been sold for £100, and some have spent thousands in the store on the beverage.

The owner then regularly takes a video with himself and the customers, asking where they are from and why they visited his business.

He then invites his visitors to join in saying his catchphrase “What’s the best shop in Wakey? Wakey Wines.”

Co-creator of Prime, KSI, real name Olajide Olatunji, encouraged people to not pay the prices for the product, saying that any resale prices above £2 were not his decision.

The business is also famous for selling its own brand WFD sweets.
