If you aren't 21-years old a well known Knoxville, Tennessee restaurant will be turning you away at the door. Starting Monday the West Haven Restaurant says it will only allow adult customers to patronize the half-century old establishment.

Owner Judy McKnight says she reluctantly came to this conclusion due to a statewide smoking ban in restaurants. McKnight says a loophole in the law allows smoking in the establishments if customers are twenty-one or older.

McKnight says her restaurant lost a third of its patrons because of the
smoking ban, a loss her business can't sustain. McKnight says the decision was hard to make because it also means she has to turn away families with young children who have been eating there for years.
