This is the heartwarming moment a fast food restaurant mascot sits down to entertain a boy who was eating alone.

The worker noticed the empty table next to the boy with Down syndrome who was tucking into chicken and chips by himself at the store in Davao City, the Philippines.

He donned the store's giant cuddly bee costume and waddled over to the boy, before entertaining him for several minutes with hand greetings.

He then gave him a kiss and a big hug, before returning to his duties.

The touching moment was captured by fellow diners at the Jollibee branch who said it was ''the sweetest thing they had seen all day''.

Onlooker Alayza May Lao said: ''We were waiting for our food then the mascot suddenly approached the man with down syndrome.

''There was no birthday party at the time so it seems like the crew wore the mascot so he could entertain the people around, especially him.

''Everyone was watching and stopped eating that time. It was the sweetest and happiest thing I've seen that day.''
