Barboncino needs to put ashtrays outside!

We live next door to Barboncino and I am tired of seeing the sidewalk in front of the restaurant littered with cigarette butts, matches, etc. Every time we walk by, there are Barboncino staff and/or customers standing outside smoking; they toss their butts onto the sidewalk, making that whole part of the block look dirty. (Yes, I am aware they sweep up regularly.)

I've suggested to various staff that they ask their boss to put an ashtray outside next to the benches. A simple solution, surely. But nothing has been done so far.

Thanks for letting me vent!

annoying, but at least they sweep up

Thank god I quit smoking. I don't like the smell or sight of it. I'm sure if you speak to Ron he will help you. He seems pretty cool.

Went by tonight and there are buckets of sand being used as ashtrays by the benches outside of Barboncino. Don't know how long they have been there.

Yes! I noticed this last night, as well. Thanks, Barboncino! Let's hope people use them.

Most smokers I know tend to use ashtrays or ashtray like substitutes if their provided. So I have pretty high hopes!
