A photo of the family’s bill, shared by the pub, reveals they scoffed two roast beef dinners at £15.50 each, a £14.50 chicken dinner and two kids’ roast dinners at £7.50 each.

On top of that, the bill also includes three bowls of soup at £7.25 each, a portion of halloumi fries at the same cost as well as two Peroni beers at £5.55 each and glasses of Coke at £3.50.

The pub, which is situated between Bawtry and Gainsborough, also shared photos of the family’s abandoned table, as well as CCTV stills.

Customers reacted with shock to the incident.

Another customer commented on the incident: “Shocking that people think its OK to do this - theft is theft.”
