Cool Spot Gets Cooler: Eleventh Going Smoke-Free
UPDATE 5/20/08: This great new Arlington website listing smoke-free establisments just went live.
In light of the Virginia General Assembly's ongoing refusal to do anything to protect Virginia consumers from the health risks of secondhand smoke, last year I emailed eight Arlington bars to see if they'd be willing to go smoke-free voluntarily. Got this semi-cryptic response from Eleventh in Clarendon:
The basement is smoke free and chances are the main floor will go that route soon.Then today, stumbled upon this on their website:
Eleventh is going NON-SMOKING, effective June 1!! Look for our ashtrays to appear on Ebay!Eleventh will become one of the few nightspots in Arlington to go completely smoke-free. Sure, there are plenty of restaurants that are completely smoke-free, but anywhere that you'd go for just a drink? Tallula's EatBar, Four Courts, Summers, and Crystal City Sports Pub all have separate smoke-free bars, but that's about it.
Ooh, almost forgot the new Busboys & Poets in Shirlington! OK, so Busboys & Poets and soon-to-be Eleventh. Any other entirely-smoke-free nightspots in Arlington I'm missing?
