The blurry Snapchat video appears to show chaos reigning directly outside, with one teenager perched on a friend's shoulders amid a sea of rioters.
Amid cheering and jeering, a security guard is seen pointing a fire extinguisher at the crowd to stop yet more teens pouring into an unknown store.
But instead of stopping the brawl, teenagers can be seen using a wet floor cone to smash a shop front as a crowd cheers them on.
The video, accompanied by the comment "Only in Dagenham", was taken by one of those gathered shortly before 6pm on Friday afternoon.
Reports on social media suggested the group had congregated because of a free sandwich deal were later dismissed by Subway.
Online users expressed their disgust at the horrifying incident, with @kpeezyreactions commenting: “These youth man are out of control and horrible."
And @f2kubik1 said: “I want every single one of these motherf****** to get jailed for life because of causing vandalism to a shop!”
A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police said that no arrest were made and that no parties were injured following the incident.
Police enquiries are ongoing.
A Subway spokesperson confirmed an incident took place on Friday evening which was "unconnected" to the Subway store.
"We can categorically confirm it was not as a result of the store giving away ‘end of the line’ food," they said.
