Can I go to a Apple Store to erase my iPhone?

My old iPhone 7 cannot be unlocked as I have forgotten the password. I can’t use a Mac/iTunes to reset it as I can’t remember the iCloud password. Can an Apple Store erase all data on my phone so I can sell it on eBay?

You can use a Windows PC, if you have one, or ask a friend or relative to use their computer. 

If you want to visit an Apple Store, call Apple in your region see: Contact Apple for support and service

You will first have to make an appointment due to the pandemic.
