Do whatever floats your boat, as long as it doesn’t sink mine.

KNOW THY PEOPLE //

KEV

Lime’s Founding Father

Kev’s family happily push him out the door each night to continue the good work of serving the Ponsonby Community bloody good drinks. Tone-deaf himself, it’s an immense source of pleasure to Kev to provide an environment where patrons can belt their lungs out with reckless abandon.

OLIVIA

Saviour of carnage / Manager

This is a lady with her shit truly sorted. A cool head under pressure means her delicious cocktails will keep on comin’ all the while holding up an engaging convo. Phewf! Olivia, we love yoooouu.

LEAH

Can actually sing…

Leah is the leader of the Lime pack when it comes to musical ability. An exceptionally talented musician who happens to be able to smash out some mean cocktails as well. Leah has been a beloved member of the Lime family for a while now and her love of Sambuca shots means it will always be on the back bar.

SIMON

Guy Smilie / Occasional Barman

The pandemic was not kind to this guy. Hiding that mile-wide smile behind a big old N45 is a crime against humanity. Feeling a bit under the weather? Come visit Simon and you’ll be infected with the happies.

ONO

Security

Pitty the fool that messes with Ono ya’ll! It’s shits and giggles until that one schmuck (and there’s always one) starts raining on your parade. Ono is like a magician... *smoke-cloud* and they’re outta there...

ALEX

Hospo widow / Cocktail Tester

Alex happily pushes Kev out the door each night... after all, having sole discretion of the remote is not an insurmountable problem. When duty calls to test out the latest cocktail, it’s body on the line for Alex. She’s also the voice of all the nonsense on our Socials and makes Limes menus look nice.

HONOURABLE MENTIONS //


lime-bar-tom

TOM

Former resident Brit on the side

Tom gave 1.5 years to the Lime family and we're stoked to have had him. He not only makes bloody great cocktails also happens to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of breathtakingly random shit, which made him the kinda guy our customers loved.

GEORGE

Former Manager

Loved by everyone with a personality, George was Lime’s Manager and now pops back in for guest appearances when we can steal him away from his current employer. George has been tending the bar at Lime since he was 6 months old - perched on the bartop admiring Kev’s handy work.

lime-bar-alicia

ALICIA

Adopted Daughter

I guess you could say Alicia technically doesn’t work for us at the moment, but look, we aren’t giving up that easily. Alicia is currently swanning about below deck in Europe, but we’ve granted her a lifetime membership to Team Lime so she’d be welcomed back anytime.

ROBERTHY

The Boomerang

Honestly, we can’t get rid of the guy. Rob is has worked for us for several stints over the years and hold a lifetime membership to Team Lime. A legit barman, but it’s actually the fish he catches and distributes that best determines the status of his employment.
