“No-one else is witnessing this apart from me and my pint of Marstons. His care and attention to getting them the perfect meal and drinks really struck me.

“I finished my pint and went for a slash and passed him on the way out. I had to stop him to say that I thought his service to the blind couple was next level and he humbly says ‘Thanks man. Appreciate that’.

“I walked home thinking that the whole scene was so frickin wholesome and only witnessed by me that I felt I had to share it!”

The server’s caring nature clearly impressed more than one person as many flocked to the comments to congratulate him.

One person said: “Nice to hear, Well done man, so nice to witness and appreciate scenes like like.
