Carluccio's
Goes No Smoking |
Antonio
Carluccio's eponymous group of Italian caffés are to become
fully non-smoking from 3rd April 2006 in all of their 25 outlets as
well as future locations.
The
announcement is being made now following the recent parliamentary
decision to legislate against smoking in public places, which is
likely to come into force early next year.
Simon Kossoff,
managing director comments:
"In our
trial non-smoking restaurants, staff and customers alike, some of
whom are smokers themselves, have overwhelmingly supported the
change. Their feedback is very important to us and, whether customer
or team member, we want them to enjoy the Carluccio's experience to
the full which for most people means breathing smoke free air.
The majority
of Carluccio's caffés have outside terraces where smokers will
be welcome".
Carluccio's is
amongst a number of highly regarded, high profile restaurants to
respond to public opinion and ban smoking.
