"We are just managing in a bad situation," Ms McPhee said. Speaking of the stricter restrictions, she added: "I understand it is going to be really difficult for a lot businesses to work that way, I think we just have to be selfless." However, Primal Roast on St Vincent Street has not reopened since Christmas since 80% of its customers have been working from home. Owner Iain Walker said takeaway traffic was too slow to stay open during lockdown but added the restriction changes are "pretty big for a lot of businesses". "Lockdown has affected us quite badly. We have been fighting to stay open since April but at the moment with the restrictions its just not viable [to open]."
