Robert Irwin has returned to the scene of the crime to make amends following his viral dine & dash
After making headlines around the world for his accidental dine and dash, Robert Irwin has once again proved why he is Australia's golden boy.
At the beginning of the week, Irwin took to social media to share that amid the chaos of a busy pub all wanting to "say g'day" he had completely forgotten to pay for his meal.
He'd called the venue offering to pay over the phone, but they insisted he just leave them a good review.

So, Irwin decided to share a video with his almost eight million followers raving about the venue which ended up making worldwide news, and insisted that he would return to pay for his meal.
Originally, Irwin had stopped by The Jetty Pavilion in Coffs Harbour during a road trip down the East Coast of Australia, and it seems that he's now headed back up north as The Jetty Pavilion has taken to social media to share that a familiar face had stopped by.
"When Robert Irwin came back to The Pav just to pay for his meal, absolute legend! Humble, kind, and all class," the venue captioned a video posted to TikTok.

In the clip Irwin paid for not only his salad, but several others, saying that he wanted to "pay it forward".
While the TikTok didn't share just how many salads Irwin paid for, the venue shared a post on Instagram revealing that the young wildlife warrior had donated $200 to pay it forward.

"We haven't had any takers yet, but we're so excited to see who we can feed in the coming days," they wrote over an image of co-owner Kyle Miller holding a stack of receipts.
The venue added that they would be donating some of the meals to Oz Harvest to "help get good food to those who need it most".
While all kinds of chaos ensued last time he stopped by the venue, it seems that this time Irwin gave The Jetty Pavilion a heads up, with family members at the ready to meet the Aussie icon.

"From a humble surf road trip to a chance encounter and a moment that changed everything," The Jetty Pavilion captioned a slew of snaps with Irwin on Instagram.
"We're so honoured to have hosted a true conservationist doing incredible things for our country and our planet.
"What an unforgettable week…. Beyond proud of our team and deeply grateful to have crossed paths with such a humble legend."

"Thank you, Robert. You're welcome back anytime".
