The 47-year-old has a string of tour dates across the UK and was heading from Ayr to St Andrew's University Union.

Gok took to Instagram to share a snap outside the log cabin-style takeaway which serves full Scottish breakfasts, sandwiches, main meals and a selection of hot drinks.

He wrote: Tour life . . . lunch anyone?"

Cumbernauld locals could not believe the TV presenter had landed in their home town.

Many commented on the snap, lamenting that they could have met up with the hot shot celeb.

One wrote: "Oh my god. This is two minutes from my house. I could have made you a cuppa, or a wee gin."

Another posted: "Oh my God, Gok that's my home town. How are you about and I didn't even know?"

A third commented: "Oh, my God. I can't believe you were in Cumbernauld. I'll pop the kettle on next time you are passing through."

Another wrote: "Wow, that’s just up the road from me and it’s the best cuppa as it has good, clean, Scottish water.

"Hope you had a fried potato scone in your brekkie."

And a fifth commented: "Welcome to my home town. The food out of there is amazing."

Old Inns Cafe chiefs were quick to share their brush with fame on social media.

They too posted the photo of Gok outside the food joint on Instagram.

A caption read: "Look who it is. Gok Wan stopped by Old Inns Cafe for a bite to eat while on his way up to St Andrews."

Old Inns Cafe sits just off the M80 near Old Inns, for more information head to their website.
