Diners at a fish and chip shop in South Sheilds were stunned to discover they were eating alongside Hillary Clinton.
The former US secretary of state and first lady visited Colmans fish and chip shop after delivering the annual South Shields Lecture with ex-local MP David Miliband on Friday.
Ms Clinton, who ran unsuccessfully against Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential race, stayed at the chippy for around two hours.
Richard Colman Ord, 29, the owner of the chippy, said it was “surreal” to welcome the renowned politician to his 100-year-old seafront family-run shop.
He said he knew that she would be coming to eat at the business, in South Shields, Tyne and Wear, but added it “wasn’t every that Hillary Clinton pops into your restaurant”.
He said Ms Clinton, flanked by several secret service agents, tucked into traditional £12.95 fish and chip, and later posed with staff and guests.
Mr Colman Ord said: “She had a great time. She was so engaging with all the guests and so accommodating with the staff.
“She had a local crab salad to start and then had our classic fish and chips, and she loved the tartar sauce so much she had seconds.”
He added: “We didn't charge them for the meal, as it's something we do every year with David Miliband, but our crab on toast is £12.95 and our classic cod and chip is £12.95 too."

Whale and fish and chips.
Herself floats in a surreal world where no facet of the commotion surrounding Herself is permitted to intrude on the calm and serenity in which Herself has been clothed for years.
Another universe. Called “Bizarro”.
What color is the sky in her world? I would suspect it’s red.
Sounds like a “good eater” as mom used to say. Look like one too...
My mom came from a big family and was raised a farm cook. Let me tell you - it paid to have a sensitive stomach in my house, because aside from my father and myself and my mother the rest of my family was obese by the time they were ten I was more picky around the plate than they were. Thank God.
“She had a local crab salad to start and then had our classic fish and chips, and she loved the tartar sauce so much she had seconds.”
Yeah... It was a tartar sauce... Yeah right... slop that hog!
The tawdry wench has fouled a good Fish and Chip shop?
I would never frequent such a place that even allowed it in the door.
Its poisoned forever. It takes a village you know, LOL.
The Lefty Fascists will be fouling distilleries and micro breweries next!
Fish eh..... fit right in I suppose.
No hot sauce? 😂…
Did she do her fake accent schtick for the locals?
Just as well you didn't because she would have stiffed you anyway.
Guests....We all know that everyone was more than likely Clinton hand picked loyalists. No one gets near her unless they know her.
I did not know you could buy wine and alcohol at a fish and chip place
$16 for fish and chips? Hard to pay more than $11.99 even in Kalifornia. Pretentious chippy shop catering rich sloths.
Given her history of stiffing creditors, this was probably a wise ove, if only to avoid the shop owner seeming ungrateful for her thighness' fleeting attention!
Good catch. She is notorious for stiffing eateries for the bill, let alone any tip for service.
How very diplomatic to say that the meal was gratis but to also reveal the cost of the meals that she avoided.
The JD is too busy convicting those terrorists who walked through the Capitol to investigate her coup attempt.
Was going to ask if she skipped out on the ticket. The shop was probably told not to charge her so it wouldn't become an international event.
The Queen would have insisted on paying and tipping.
She is a crook and quite possibly a murderer. I have no use whatsoever for this harridan and louse.
