Anyone know what's open and what's not on STT on Christmas day?

I have guests arriving early afternoon and was wondering about grocery stores and events I can refer them to. Wondering about
Hull Bay Hideaway bar/restaurant and other north side locations.

Thanks

Plaza Extra is definitely open as usual, KMart also. Best to call restaurants directly to check.

Christmas is just another day to the Jewish and Muslims so I would imagine the grocery and convenience stores will mostly be open.

Pueblo and Plaza Extra are open.
Hull Bay Hideaway and Thirteen bar/restaurants are closed.
Don't know if Northside Bistro or Blue Orchids at St. Peter Great House are closed.

There are two cruise ships in, so stores will be open, although perhaps for short hours.

The beaches. Some excursions may be available if they have reservations. Most restaurants will be open with the exception of local restaurants. You can also give them an island tour.

In my best Robert DeNiro voice: "Are you talking to me?"

*Many* stores will be open. I always get the joy of working so others may have the day off....

Of course many stores will be open until 1 pm. Been that way for years. Stores can't afford to close when there are ships in town. This is the U.S. in that regard.

My friends who work in stores in town are, as usual, working throughout the holidays including Christmas Day. Same goes for my friends who run charter operations and tours - just another working day!

Here. In States. I had a name for Holidays. Christmas I like to call Thursday. Working holidays isn't bad when you've been doing it so long.
