Clive Thompson left this review about Lime

Lime has now closed and the music event guys who were running it have moved on. It's now called The Old Buoy and is a Belgian themed bar, something like you'd find in the back streets of a small Belgian town. A bit dark and dingy with rickedy furniture and not much room to move. I went there with a few mates who were less than impressed but I like quirky places like this. Continental and Belgian beers available both on draft and in bottles. Food available, especially moules.
