The Prince of Wales shocked staff at a local pub when he paid them an unannounced visit on Thursday.

According to the Daily Mail , the future King, 43, was visiting the town of Mere for official Duchy of Cornwall business when he and several associates called in to The Walnut Tree Inn.

Rocking a pair of green Wellington boots, William, who entered the establishment with seven others, including three security staff, enjoyed a pub lunch of a burger and fries costing £18.95, which he washed down with a lemonade. The pub's owner, William Friend-James, said it "was a pleasure" to host His Royal Highness.
