“It was a bit worrying because I had to cook for him but we took it out to him and he said thank you and was really nice,” 18-year-old Scott Valentine said. Apparently Reeves two others ordered two large fish and chips and two shepherd’s pies.
Posting photos of the surprise encounter to its Facebook page, a staff member of The Robin Hood wrote:

“Laura asked if he would be ok with taking photos with the kitchen lads.
“He marched into the kitchen shook their hands and praised them for the food they had prepared.
“Suffice to say he made their days!!!”
