Yeah, it's a restaurant, but everyone goes there to party with Happy Hour every day. Any cruise passengers left stranded by their ships were probably hanging out at the Greenhouse and lost track of time. Just off Main Street. A short drive from the condo. You might have to park within a block or two, but well worth the walk.
