We read with interest the comments by Ray Ager (Letters, July 23) regarding non-smoking cafes.

If he cares to venture a short way out of the city centre to central Kemp Town, he will find Alice's Coffee Shop.

When we reopened this cafe five years ago, we took the bold step of going all non-smoking and we have never looked back.

Many of our customers are smokers but still prefer to eat a fine meal in a smoke-free atmosphere.
