Small cafes and restaurants that were greatly affected by the preliminary lockdown are discovering a surge of local support from those who wish to stem the erasure of business that remain an integral part of communities; not just in the economic sense, but also as a social component of most interwoven municipalities in England.<\/p>\n

The customers who arrive to Maltby Street Market in Bermondsey, London, are present not only to pursue light outdoor exercise during the weekend, but also to enjoy delicious meals that are provided by their local eateries. Even during lockdown, street food purveyors can remain open, but they can only offer take-away food. It is a harmonious exchange; one that is ever aware to make sure as to respect lockdown protocol.<\/p>\n

Maltby Street Market is among fifteen street food markets that are still offering Londoners a place to purchase takeaway food during this lockdown period. In order to maintain safety measures, customers are instructed to routinely wash their hands, wear face masks, and stick to a one-way system around the site. Dining within food establishments is strictly forbidden.<\/p>\n

Keeping bellies full with delicious, wholesome food all within a safe, open space is not only a treat for Londoners, but it\u2019s also supporting local businesses in such trying times.<\/p>\n

Keith Bagley has been running his own restaurant, The Walrus and Carpenter for seven years. Thanks to the continued patronage of local customers, Keith is managing to keep afloat during this difficult time.\u00a0 \u201cI am surprised to have many. It\u2019s not as many as it\u2019s used to be when it\u2019s all eating and drinking, but what is very noticeable is that more and more local people are coming, people who live locally\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n
