Naaah.

Okay, well, maybe, someday. But I think things will change slowly.

In September of 2005, the only smokefree coffee shops in all of Vienna were the Starbucks.

And the few restaurants that had the concept of a "non-smoking area" tended to think that meant 1 table without an ashtray.

Being allergic, I'm in no rush to go back...
The austrian goverment is thinking about of introducing smoking ban, but there are too many resistors, so it would take a while until Austria will be smoke free !
