    Place for a small quiet meeting?

    I have run out of ideas of places for a small group to meet in the evening, and not battle the crowds that are here this week. Watercolor Market is packed every night this week, Starbucks and Amavida are too small, PJs closes at 7, yada yada.

    Any ideas that is quiet, open past 7, and has enough seating for 6 people to work for a couple hours?

    Why not the room at the library? I thought that was open to just about everyone. Do they have something in Pt. Washington? Maybe Shallowsnole can help.

    I was really hoping for something quiet, like a comfy coffee place with couches, etc. I don't want to make any special arrangements- just wanting to walk in a place that isn't swamped, with a little table room.

    Sally's Backside is sometimes quiet after 7. She has a couple of couches up front and the nice little deck outside. It kind of depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

    WaterColor Inn -- the little bar past the front desk and to the right. I've never seen it busy.

    Not a good idea now. The lobby bar has been slammed now due to spring break and the sushi bar there. However just across the lobby is the library with a table, couchs, etc. Get a wine or whatever and set up shop.

    I've noticed D & K have two rooms that seem to be quiet.
    One upstairs and one downstairs not too many people know about.

    The Terrace Restaurant (Inlet Beach) is great and has been nearly empty every time we've been there. Its more formal than a coffee shop or bar, but I don't think they'd mind.

    They might question someone who isn't staying there.

    Maybe Seacrest Cafe or Fonville Press (outside, inside wouldn't work very well for a group of 6). Both have wireless available, too, if you bring a laptop. And you could sip a little wine while working.

    Maybe I read this earlier today, and didn't realize it. I just left WC Publix and saw the sign at the Coffee Shop noting open til 9pm, and thought it would be perfect. If I lived in the hood near there, I'd hang out there all the time.

    Never question people using facilities. I work there and we never inquire. Bar, etc. open to public. Also, 2 computors in library for use with printers.

    Inside Watercolor Inn to the left after you go through the lobby.There is also WiFi but I'm not sure it is free. Try the sushi from Sushi Mike or Alex, it's great.
