Bristol student Louis Anderson snapped the picture and shared it on Twitter at 6pm.

He wrote: "So just walked into KFC in Briston, who's stood there, it's only Usain Bolt."

The eight-time Olympic champion and 11-time World Champion has been enjoying his retirement in recent weeks.

He has posted numerous pictures from yachts and holiday hotspots around the world.

Bolt was seen at OktoberFest last week and has also spent time in the Mediterranean.

It's not clear why he was in Bristol - but the Jamaican sprint king was likely ordering chicken nuggets.

During the Beijing 2008 Olympics, Bolt revealed that he was eating 100 McDonald's nuggets EVERY DAY.

He wrote in his autobiography, Faster than Lightning: "At first I ate a box of 20 for lunch, then another for dinner.

"The next day I had two boxes for breakfast, one for lunch and then another couple in the evening.

"I even grabbed some fries and an apple pie to go with it."

Bolt said he stuck with nuggets because he found Chinese food "odd".
