Smoking & Alcohol

Smoking is not allowed in public places, such as bars, pubs, clubs, restaurants, offices etc. There are however a few venues which have designated areas where smoking is permitted. Some hidden late-night pubs in the centre will turn a blind eye and bring an ashtray to your table in the early hours of the morning.
According to Italian law, alcohol cannot be legally sold to people under 18. However, it is unlikely that a teenager will not be served a drink at a bar or have his purchase rejected in a supermarket.
