Do fights actually break out at these things or is it a meme?

Explain like I'm a foreigner.

They're open pretty much all the time and don't close at night, so naturally drunks and other rowdy folk congregate there. Prime time for fights to break out over silly minor things, which often turn physical. There's a reason most restaurants shut their dining rooms down by midnight.

Do they also have like kebab/swarma places that are open 24/7? Where I live drunk people always seem to want to eat something like that.

Can't imagine getting drunk and thinks let's get a waffle.

No one starts shit around a kebab guy tho. They have seen it all and if you start a fight they will finish it for you.
