As well as sharing a socially-distanced selfie of the group gathered together outside, Phil uploaded a snap of him double-parked inside the restaurant.
Alongside a photograph of a wine glass and a full cocktail, he wrote: ‘When you know that THIS was the moment you should have stopped #lunch #friends.’
It comes after Phil admitted that he’s fed up of social distancing as he accidentally broke the rules on This Morning by sitting too close to Holly.
‘I am sick of all of this!’ cried the frustrated presenter after his co-host ordered him to ‘back off’ to the other end of the sofa.

Sick of it! It comes after Phil admitted that he’s fed up of social distancing as he accidentally broke the rules on This Morning by sitting too close to Holly
Current rules state: ‘You should stay 2 metres apart from anyone who is not in your household or support bubble where possible, or 1 metre with extra precautions in place (such as wearing face coverings) if you cannot stay 2 metres apart.’
Noticing that he and Holly were closer than usual, Phil announced: ‘We are also closer than we are supposed to be!’
While smiling, Holly ordered her co-host: ‘Back off down that end, I am where I am supposed to be!’
‘I am not!’ admitted Phil, before adding: ‘I am sick of all of this!!’ as he moved himself to the far end of the sofa.

Later, the presenters sat down to discussed the fact that May 17 is the date that hugging will be allowed in the UK, but that social distancing rules must still be kept up.
Clearly perplexed, Phil asked: ‘I can hug Holly but I can’t sit next to her?’
The host ultimately deduced that he believes that as ‘long as both adults agree’ that they can exchange an embrace.
Whoops! Noticing that he and Holly were closer than usual, Phil announced: ‘We are also closer than we are supposed to be!’ before realising it was he who wasn’t sat at the end of the sofa
