Previously in my blog I have talked about my local watering hole. Due to the new "anti-smoking" legislation many smaller bars have suffered and some have even had to close their doors.But my watering hole fought to beat the system and have come out victorious. The pictures here are of the new and improved Wendy Jack's Hidaway. They have created what I can only say is a wonderful outdoor smoking area that is almost completely enclosed except for one wall that is solar screened in. These screens will hold in the A/C and heat but allows the smoke out.
A pool table, jukebox, 3 plasma TV's and karoake at night makes this a sure bet for a new hot spot on the westside of town. So pull up a bar stool, order a drink and light a smoke. Everything is as it should be again.

get the drinks in, I'm on my way!
It is always good to see innovative ways of staying in business and even improving on the past.
Ah, a great idea! For the smokers, that is. I think that all facilities should offer some form of smoking area for the smokers, but heh, I'm not the President either...
Stopping by to say hello...I'm having a tough time with myself right now, but I'm going to work through it all...

Looks like you guys got your cake and get to eat it to so to speak congrats to all of you. Looks like a nice spot too Darlin.
Our non smoking law came in on July 1st. As you know I'm in the trade and at present we have only lost a handful of customers. The killer will be winter! Here our outdoor smoking shelters have to have less than 50% cover, so it's not easy to create a comfortable environment for our smokers. However, there has already been a massive downturn in the number of smokers in the UK and the trend is expected to continue as time goes by.Pubs who have spent thousands on shelters are already questioning the wisdom of spending so much on what could become redundant buildings in a very short time. Interesting times we live in!
Smart Bar.
We have this new smoking ban in Omaha too. I do admit that I like the less oppressive atmosphere, but it has hurt several local longstanding establishments.
