ARLINGTON

By city ordinance, Arlington restaurants are supposed to be smokefree. Comments on how well this is being observed are welcome. Restaurants listed below were contacted before this information was received.

Nov. 2001: Arlington Citizens for Clean Air update: The non-smoking ordance is well enforced but weakened by exceptions and exemptions. Restaurants which install a (not necessarily effective!) fan can allow up to 30% smoking. Some restaurants which were smokefree have gone for the fan. Places allowing only customers 18 and over can do as they like. So bars, nightclubs, pools halls, bowling alleys and bingo halls are as smoky as they wanna be.
