A man has been arrested after a fight broke out at a pub in Bexleyheath.

The brawl on Saturday evening started at the Golden Lion pub on the Broadway, before people reportedly fled to The Meze restaurant over the road.

An eyewitness, who was eating with her friends in The Mezze, said: “We heard some screaming coming from the door and then next thing I know there was a massive crash.

“He put his fist through the glass door.

“There were a couple of door men but they couldn’t stop him.

“He went through the back and the next thing I know he was carrying an eight inch blade and his hand was dripping.

“The guy was in a rage and had a massive kitchen knife.

“I want to know what Mezze is going to do to improve security.

“At the end of the day he still managed to get to the kitchen and spray blood everywhere.”

Officers said they were called to a restaurant on the Broadway just after 7.30pm, to reports of a fight.

One man suffered a minor facial injury in the fight.

A man was arrested on suspicion of GBH and taken to a south London police station.

A spokeswoman for the Golden Lion said: "We confirm an incident took place on Saturday evening in the Golden Lion which was quickly dispersed by management and door staff and the culprits removed from the venue.

"There were no weapons used in the incident.

"We understand a fight reignited on the street and a man was arrested by police.”

The Mezze has been contacted for a comment.

Enquiries continue.
