Starbucks to ban smoking within 25 feet of cafes May 31st 2013, 13:30 Published May 31, 2013 Associated Press Nov. 10, 2008: In this file photo, a Starbucks store inside the Beachwood Mall in Beachwood, Ohio is seen.AP The Seattle-based chain says it will start banning smoking within 25 feet of its stores, beginning Saturday, where permitted by its leases. Starbucks spokeswoman Jaime Lynn Riley says the intent is to expand the indoor no-smoking policy to the outdoor seating areas. "If there were any concerns, we would hope to resolve it amicably." Riley said, referring to a customer who might be smoking within the restricted area. The rule will apply to the 7,000 cafes owned and operated by Starbucks Corp., regardless of whether they have outdoor seating areas. The policy shouldn't cause a big difference in many areas that already ban smoking within a certain distance of a business entrance.
