They also allegedly forced entry into the restaurant and packed furniture before leaving.
The footage, recorded in the evening, did not reveal whether anyone got injured during the violent confrontation.
This is not the first time Quick Credit Ghana staff have been in the spotlight for using what some have described as violent means to retrieve money loaned to individuals and firms.
In August this year, the Tarkwa Circuit Court imposed a fine of GH¢3,600 each on four employees of the Tarkwa branch of the microfinance company.
The court found them culpable of causing harm to one Michael Kwesi Affum, a security officer of G4S security company.
Many commentators condemned the attack on the restaurant.

"Attacked workers Aden ebe the workers wey take the loan? These people need to be stopped."

"Imagine the business owner was armed like big matter! It will eventually get there someday! We just dey sit and watch."
