A family-run restaurant has released images of a ‘dine and dash’ couple who ‘did a runner’ – without paying their bill.
The pair reportedly left Belluno, an Italian restaurant in Newton St Cyres, Devon, without paying their £83 bill.
The restaurant felt like they had ‘no other option’ but to post CCTV screenshots showing faces of the pair on facebook – as this is not the first time they have experienced it.
Belluno claimed the incident took place on Thursday (9 January) evening – when the pair went outside for a cigarette before failing to return back inside to settle their bill.
Belluno Italian Restaurant – Newton St Cyres, wrote on facebook: “We love being part of the friendly community here, but last night this couple come and eat at Belluno and they did a ‘runner’ after the pretending they are smoking.
“We completely understand that lots of people are struggling with the cost of living, but we work really hard as a family business and stealing from anyone never mind a business is just not acceptable.
“Their bill was £83.45.
“If anyone know these people please let us know.”
