About Lime Bar
Lime Bar is an easy Ponsonby drinks pick when convenience matters more than a food-led night. Go for a flexible social stop on Ponsonby Road, especially if the plan may move between venues; choose Apero Wine Bar instead when the food and wine brief matters more.
Lime Bar is a bar in Ponsonby with a casual dress code and late operating hours across much of the week. The verified information is limited, so plan around the basics that are confirmed rather than assuming a particular menu, drinks program, price point, or service style.
The clearest planning detail is timing. Lime Bar opens at 4 PM from Monday to Friday, opens at 2 PM on Saturday, and is closed on Sunday. Closing times run later as the week goes on, with midnight on Monday, 1 AM on Tuesday and Wednesday, and 3 AM from Thursday through Saturday.

How Lime Bar compares in Ponsonby
Lime Bar is the practical choice when the priority is ease: a flexible Ponsonby Road stop with lower planning pressure than more defined drinking rooms. The Whiskey Bar is the better fit for a spirits-focused night, while Apero Wine Bar is the safer choice when food and wine need to carry the booking.
For ambience, Lime Bar makes more sense as a social, late-leaning stop than a polished hotel-lounge experience. If the group wants a more composed room, compare Our Land, Chandelier Lounge, or Captain's Bar before choosing. Those are better cross-shops when the room itself is a bigger part of the night.
Value comes from flexibility rather than a verified food or cocktail credential. For an easy Ponsonby add-on, Lime Bar is the pick; for a more intentional wine-bar meal, go to Apero Wine Bar; for a narrower drinks brief, start with The Whiskey Bar.
