The man walked in to Nighttown, a restaurant in Cleveland, Ohio, on Sunday. He ordered one beer and asked for the bill, which came to 7.02 dollars (£5.18).

As the man walked out, Mr Ring looked down at the tip and “realized he left a whopping $3000″.

Mr Ring said he would not post the customer’s name because he thinks “he wouldn’t want that”.
However, he said he and his staff were “humbly grateful for this incredibly kind and grand gesture”.
