I probably won’t ever attend a “full capacity” venue again. Not because of Covid one way or the other, I’ve simply come to the conclusion that there aren’t many things I detest more than being crammed in to a restaurant or theatre full of people. When I do go places I purposely pick hours when they aren’t full and don’t hesitate to walk away when they’re overcrowded. Why should I pay $$$ to do something like eat out in a place where people are packed elbow to elbow along with the noise and inevitably slower service? I just don’t see the benefit. The same goes for just about any other activity.
For me the Covid lockdown wasn’t a bad experience. I enjoyed quiet time with the kids and the extra money I’d blown on eating out without too much thought. All in all the experience gave me a lot of new insight in to what I value and what’s really not necessary in life.
I really wouldn’t call out any particular business one way or the other. If it’s crowded I don’t go in. If it’s at a reasonable capacity where I can have a nice quiet meal with friends I’m going.

I’ve been the same way, long before the CCP Virus.
