How old is that list? I don't think the vast majority of those places allow cigar smoking any more.

Wow that's an old list. I wouldn't trust that one.

I can go but have to leave the unmarked white van behind. Feds are stil testing it for DNA.

Might be an old list, the trouble with the Internet is sometimes things just go dead and are not updated. I really don't know.

 

[Happy Idiot]

Only place I know is Ditka's.

 

[danmdevries]

Can you smoke indoors anywhere within city limits?

No more cigar smoking at Ditka's, Illinois smoking ban took care of that.

Can't smoke indoor at any public place, such as restaurants or bars (unless the establishment has a license for it, such as cigar lounges). Smoking has to be x feet from the entrance of an establishment (I think 15 or 25 feet) and I think 25 feet from any bar. Since the footprint of most bars here are long but narrow width, that pretty much forces it to be non-smoking.
iirc, in Illinois, if an establishment serves tobacco, they cannot serve alcohol. Explains why you can bring your own liquor to a cigar lounge and they will simply act like they never saw it.

Some rules if I go. Do NOT give me alcohol. But if I do get ahold of alcohol, do NOT take it from me.

The Foundry in Naperville/Aurora has an interesting setup. THey have a cigar lounge inside the main bar but it's a separate room with two doors and a great ventilation system. Wait staff go in and take drink orders, too.

You get piss water "beer". There's no alcohol in that, right?
