I suspect for the most part it will just speed up the cull of establishments that were destined to fail. The reaction by many pubs to a changed market over the last decade has been nothing short of dismal, as each 'old boy' passes on they seem content to lose another customer and leave it at that. Maybe a market town in the Pennines is not a fair reflection of the industry as a whole but in my town of 14,000 there is only one pub I could recommend to a visitor
If owners weren't concerned that there average customer was over 65, nursed his bitter for an hour at a time and 'splashed out' on a packet of peanuts then maybe covid will give them the kick up the ass they needed.
