Footfall on UK High Streets and shopping centres was 'muted' despite indoor hospitality reopening.

The reopening of indoor bars and restaurants last month failed to boost footfall on UK High Streets and shopping centres following May's record rainfall, according to new data.The hospitality industry in England reopened indoors on 17 May.

At present, only groups of up to six people or a larger gathering of two households are allowed inside hospitality venues. And those serving alcohol must provide table service only.Springboard said the gap between in footfall compared to May 2019 actually widened as the month wore on, from a fall of 25.3% in the first week to a drop of 26.8% in the final week.

"Secondly, the limitations on dining capacity in indoor venues inevitably means that the uplift in footfall generated has been limited."
