But police say they have made no arrests and there is no update to the incident.
Officers attended at the time but said the offenders had left the area and no suspects were identified.
Footage of the brawl posted online by Alicia Martin showed one worker being knocked to the floor, apparently unconscious, at the junction of the High Street and Military Road.
Another video showed a man in high-vis clothing waving chairs around and shouting aggressively.
She later described how it had been a frightening experience, adding: "It was strange. I thought you don't normally go this mental in your uniform."
