The Grand U
Outdoor Patio & Smoking Area
At The Grand U, we understand that
every guest should feel welcome and comfortable — including those who smoke. That’s why we’ve created a private,
enclosed outdoor patio designed
specifically for:
✅ Cigar smokers
✅ Hookah smokers
✅ Cigarette smokers
✅ Guests who want a fresh air break
without leaving the event
This designated area keeps the indoor
space clean and smoke-free, while still
allowing guests to relax, socialize, and
enjoy themselves without interruption.
our patio offers a stylish, accessible space just steps away from the celebration.
