With 75.6% of voters saying they won’t change their dining habits, it’s looking positive for the UK at this point in time, it might not hit us as hard as we are all anticipating. However, from a recent BigHospitality article, it appears to have had some effect on restaurants in the capital. 
Our guess is that worries about infection and worries about future earnings are “negative factors”, whilst consumers cancelling foreign holiday plans and having more money to spend in restaurants is a “positive factor”, along with a transfer of travel plans to “internal” domestic tourism.
