Another eating establishment goes smoke free in Michigan, this time a Ypsilanti coffee shop is joining the growing ranks of businesses that let their customers breathe freely.

 

Excerpt:

 

Jim Johnson, co-owner of The Ugly Mug said he and his wife, Melody Rye, have wanted to make improvements and go smoke free for a while.

 

Johnson said he was looking to create a healthy atmosphere for non-smokers who come to the shop as well as draw in customers who did not visit because of the smoke.

 

“I think everybody is ready for it,” Rye said of the smoke free change. “Even our smokers have commented they don’t like smelling like smoke when they leave.”
