Patrons looking to buy a croissant and a cup of coffee were greeted with flying chairs and fisticuffs late Tuesday night at Au Bon Pain.
The fight began shortly before 11:30 p.m. outside the Harvard Square cafe. Shane Kelly of Gardner, Mass., allegedly gave Michael McGrath of Quincy, Mass., a bloody nose, police sources said.
Kelly threw a chair at McGrath, but when the chair missed its target, Kelly punched McGrath, according to an Au Bon Pain employee.
"I saw blood coming out of the guy's face," said the employee, who asked that his name not be used.
According to the employee, McGrath was intoxicated at the time of the incident and provoked the attack.
Kelly was arrested by Harvard Police on suspicion of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon--the chair.
