Default smoking at the weirs beach lobster pound

smoking is only allowed in our outdoor areas. That is the law in the state of New Hampshire.

Default What's Next

I don't know what the owners have done to deserve these threads but it's time to give them a break. Hasn't the Forum done enough damage to the Lobster Pound in the past month? Food poisoning and now smoking in the building. Can't imagine what's coming next.

I have been to the Lobster Pound several times, mainly for the drinks and great entertainment, and I have not seen anyone smoking inside the building.

It is great to have them within walking distance!

I also have been to the Pound several times and have only seen smoking out in the patio or up on the top deck. They are putting out some nice meals and have gotten there act together IMO.

My intent was not to do any harm to The Lobster Pound. It was a legitimate question based on what I saw with my own eyes. I have never been a smoker and am not bothered by it. There were people smoking in the bar area near the kitchen and out on the lower level porch - the sliding glass door was open to the restaurant. I did not complain b/c it didn't bother me. I was just suprised and wanted to clarify. Not every post has malicious intent.

Default Perhaps

Maybe the smokers were indeed tourists from Amsterdam, and not realizing our bars do not enjoy the same freedoms the bars in Amsterdam enjoy, they were smoking some material they had brought along with them for their trip to our fine state/country. What did it smell like? Not that I would know...
except for one time in college...oh, and at that wedding that time...oh wait, at camp when I had that party...hold on, that Sunday tailgating before the Pat's game...and that's it..exept, oh wait a minute...

......is damage anyway, PB, in my eyes. Perhaps you really did meant it as a legitimate question, but next time maybe you'd say something like "an unnamed restaurant" or "a place which I will leave unnamed"?

And btw, if it didn't bother you, why even bring it up?

I don't see any malicious intent here. Perhaps the could have been handled more discretely, but...all things considered I don't think that the business suffered because of it. I will give the Lobster Pound a try sometime this year and make my own decisions based upon the food and service. I am sure others feel the same way.
