"We thought we'd got through the worst of it, but it took away 50% of our sales just in that month from cancelled bookings and Christmas parties, which is a huge part of our business."The biggest thing is people haven't made new friends over the last two or three years because they haven't had that opportunity. That's what you get when you go to a bar after work or on the weekend.
"I think that a lot of people's attitudes prior to the pandemic was to go out for wine or beer after work to celebrate when something good had happened in the office, but now they are less likely to travel into Birmingham if they are working from home. "One of the biggest things that has changed is everyone has become used to a more sit-down, relaxed style of drinking, because for so long we could only sit outdoors or in groups of six inside, we couldn't get up and dance."Westside Business Improvement District believes things are starting to look up for the hospitality sector after a tough two years
The Lost & Found, like other bars, has introduced offers between on weekday afternoons and early evenings specifically to target that market.
