Exemptions Shape Maryland Smoking Ban Rules
The state allows smoking in certain venues including bars with liquor-driven income, hotel guest rooms and bars, private club private functions, and specific restaurant configurations. Tobacco shops and enclosed lounges also permit smoking. Brendan Flanagan of the Maryland Restaurant Association notes early complaints focus on compliance and customer grievances, not employee health. He addsMOSH appears to address customer complaints beyond initial intent while critics question the balance of protections.
