Mistakes can be costly, but this one in particular cost about £4,500.
A customer ordered a bottle of wine worth £260 at a Manchester steakhouse called Hawksmoor but what they were given was something completely different.
According to the MEN the customers had no idea and it wasn't until they had paid that the restaurant employees realised.
They had ordered the Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2001 but actually received 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."
