A Facebook post by a restaurant owner in Ohio has gone viral after a man walked into the store, purchased a $7 beer, and left a $3,000 tip. Nighttown owner Brendan Ring admits he chased after the customer when he noticed the massive tip on the receipt assuming it was some sort of mistake. The customer, however, reassured the restaurant owner the $3,000 tip was no mistake.
Brendan Ring shares shocking receipt on Facebook
Shocked and overwhelmed, the Ohio restaurant owner did what most would do in this situation. He took to social media. To share what happened. Given how difficult the year 2020 has been for most… And, the fact that he was preparing to shut down his restaurant because of the pandemic. This $3,000 tip was a huge blessing for himself and his employees.
According to Ring, the generous moment happened just because they had planned to close the restaurant that day. He explained a customer walked in, ordered a beer, and asked for the check. Things proceeded as normal and he discussed his voluntary shutdown of the restaurant to keep everyone safe.
That was when the customer encouraged the Ohio restaurant owner to share the tip with the employees that were working that day. Ring revealed he had four employees on the schedule at the time.
It was not until the customer exited the establishment that Brendan Ring noticed the massive tip on the $7 bill. Naturally, he chased after the customer assuming it was some sort of mistake.
The generous customer reassured Brendan Ring it was not a mistake. He wished the restaurant owner well. And, he looked forward to coming back in when they reopened after the pandemic was over.
“Unbelievable but symbolic of the kind of quality folks we have know at Nighttown all these years,” Ring penned in his post.
He decided not to share the identity of the individual
Brendan Ring continued to reveal this wasn’t just a king stranger. He took the time to learn the name of the Ohio man that left the tip. He, however, decided not to share the name. Brendan was not sure the individual would want everyone to have that information. He, however, did want to make it clear how “humbly grateful” both himself and his staff were for this very generous gift.
The Facebook post has gone viral getting nearly 400 shares and a few hundred comments. Most have taken to the comments to discuss how refreshing it is to see such a kind act.
