Metz co-owner Kendra Lewis said the new density rules meant the restaurant could increase its seated capacity and allow patrons to be seated at the bar.

"We're lucky we've been able to retain all our staff ... we're able to also recruit some new people back into our business," she said.

"It's just going to be nice being able to relax a little bit more into it ... feeling a little bit more comfortable about the future as well."

Fellow upper St John Street business Tinka Coffee Brewers would also be expanding its seating capacity under the new distancing protocol from eight to 12.

"This is a really welcome change ... patrons have definitely shown respect for the restrictions that we've been trying to enforce," he said.

"We will look to increase, probably right not up to full capacity, taking a modest approach. That being said, it'll certainly give us a little bit more leeway where we've had to turn away business in the past."

Ms Lewis said it was encouraging to see so many locals dining in at businesses already, compensating a quiet autumn for a busy winter.
