This is the moment diners flee in panic as a deer enters a restaurant and interrupts their lunch.
The incident happened at Noodles and Company restaurant in the city of Beloit, in the US state of Wisconsin on Tuesday, 24th October.
The CCTV footage shows the restaurant packed with customers and employees during lunchtime, when surprisingly, a deer showed up and entered the hall as the customers fled in panic.
A second piece of footage shows the animal wandering through the restaurant kitchen where the staff had already fled, seemingly looking for a way to get out.
And finally, a third video shows the deer going out of the restaurant through a storage room and leaving through the door.
Noodles and Company restaurant said in a statement obtained by Newsflash: “The deer stopped by Noodles in Beloit, Wisconsin during the lunch rush, using the window as his mode of entrance, then proceeded to walk around the restaurant and kitchen before making a swift exit through the back door with the help of a team member.
“Our team members’ priority throughout the process was to make sure the deer made it outside of the restaurant safely and that no one was harmed during the encounter.
“After the exciting visit unfolded, the location was temporarily closed to assess the situation, deep clean the restaurant, and ensure the quality of food was not compromised.
“We are thankful that a teacher was onsite with their class for a field trip and helped get everyone to safety.
“Luckily, no one was harmed during the event, and everyone had a good sense of humor about the unexpected visit.
“To commemorate Noodles’ newest guest, the restaurant welcomed guests back yesterday with a “2 Buck Mac & Cheese” special, offering our best-selling Wisconsin Mac & Cheese for just USD 2 [GBP 1.65] – perfect for guests looking to save some doe.”
