Mistakes do happen - and this was a very pricey one.
A customer at Manchester steakhouse Hawksmoor was accidentally served a £4,500 bottle of wine with their meal and had no idea.
It wasn't until after the diners paid up and left the Deansgate restaurant on Wednesday night that staff realised the humongous gaffe.
The customer had in fact ordered a different - and much cheaper - bottle of Bordeaux, which happened to be the same vintage.

But when the waiter went to grab it from the shelf, they picked up the wrong one.
Rather than the £260 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2001, the diners were served - and drank - the Chateau le Pin Pomerol 2001.
The wine, which features on the 'Rarities' section of the wine menu, is advertised at around 17 and a half times the price of the bottle they had selected.
The restaurant confessed to the blunder on Twitter. Bosses joked that they hoped the customer enjoyed their night - and it looks like the waiter in question is off the hook.
The post read: "To the customer who accidentally got given a bottle of Chateau le Pin Pomerol 2001, which is £4,500 on our menu, last night - hope you enjoyed your evening!
"To the member of staff who accidentally gave it away, chin up! One-off mistakes happen and we love you anyway."
