Not that I've noticed. Admittedly in food places here, smoking inside has been banned for decades and even smoking outside has strict limits on how close to doors and air intakes you are allowed to smoke. I still have unfond memories of sitting in non-smoking sections and having smoke drifting in from the smoking section. I have a vague memory that smoking in restaurants in the UK was banned in 2007 as one friend of mine griped about it from a family reunion 15 years ago—she and her husband were the type of people you see standing outside the restaurant to smoke.

Does having Cornish pasties in Truro count? Semi-circular and crimped on the side.
