A listing of local smokefree dining and entertainment venues.
Update 2004: Maine bars are supposed to be 100% smoke-free starting 1/1/04.
Update 2002: Maine restaurants have been smokefree for 2 years now. A visitor to Maine reports that it's working "very very well". Stand-alone bars still allow smoking.
