Social media users commented on the foolishness of the customer trying to fight men who were all wearing helmets.
One viewer wrote 'How stupid do you have to be to be slapping crash helmets!'
Another individual jokingly remarked that the customer's hand must be injured after hitting so many helmets with it: 'Uno my man's hand was hurting after he clapped that helmet'.
'Either very brave or very stupid to up against a guy with a full-blown crash helmet... I'll go with the latter,' said another viewer.
Metropolitan Police said they had no knowledge of an incident at the restaurant on Monday.
After Freedom Day, most COVID-19 restrictions in England were lifted, as the country moved to step four of the coronavirus lockdown roadmap due to the success in the vaccination programme.
More than 46million people have received their first jab in the UK but scientists warn the country about the danger of reopening when the Delta variant remains a threat.
The expectation for Freedom Day turned into uncontrollable euphoria on Monday, with many returning to cinemas, concert halls, restaurants and stadiums, which now can be open to full capacity.
