Brophy Bros.

The bar at Brophy Bros.' incessantly busy seafood restaurant is two-sided. One side faces the bartenders, looking across the romantic balcony tables and out into the harbor. This is where you ideally want to be, but it may require a wait of an hour or more. The other side gives you only occasional access to the person making your drink, looks out over the interior dining room, and places your back squarely opposed to the almost-panoramic ocean view. This is where us sneaky ones go, slipping in for drinks and fish n' chips unnoticed with very little wait time. Tourists don't stand on the far side of the bar, but travelers - always ready for the next adventure - most certainly do.
