This is the moment rain came gushing through the roof of a McDonald's, leaving a pool of water on the floor and tables and chairs soaked.
Speke's restaurant in New Mersey Retail Park suffered flooding after a dramatic thunderstorm hit the region.
In a video, shared publicly on social media, deafening rain can be heard pelting the restaurant's tables and chairs.
A man says: "It's lashing it down in work, f****** hell."
But despite the video appearing to show the restaurant soaked, McDonald's confirmed the store is ready to reopen - with just the drive-thru currently operating due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Repairs and cleaning have been carried out, so employees can continue work and customers can use the drive-thru.
