I think some kind of co-op private club might be possible. It would have to be a co-op because then the barkeep and cocktail waitresses wouldn't be employees, they'd all be owners. That might still run afowl of local laws which use the terminology "workplace", however. Tricky stuff.

Private club to make it so that you're not "endangering the public".

I think there's still smoking in bars allowed in Idaho, but that's 350 miles away.

Before the ban we had plenty of smoke free bars to choose from. Clearly a case of too much legislation!
