Is it not obvious?
What if my favourite bars become smoking places? I won't be able to go to them then. I don't want my choice of bars to be restricted because I want to enjoy good health.

If smoking is banned in all public places then your friend's business won't lose out to any other bars. However, were she to provide a smoking room, then she could cater for everyone. And to be honest, whilst I am not suggesting that your friend's livelihood is not important, there are other factors such as health that need to be considered.
