North Terminal bar hours run 10:00 to 23:00 here
Bar Lime sits airside in the North Terminal at Piarco, post-security, and fills the “have a drink before boarding” gap without much online chatter under its actual name. It’s a local-style bar with basic seating, more about killing 30–45 minutes with a rum drink than making a whole evening of it. Price tier sits around mid-range ($$), so think standard airport mark-up, not luxury-cocktail territory.
Doors open at 10:00 and stay open through 23:00, which lines up with many Caribbean and North American departures out of POS. That timing makes it a workable stop for a midday CAL hop to Tobago or an evening departure to New York or Toronto. Being post-security in the North Terminal matters at Piarco, since landside options thin out fast once you clear immigration and walk toward the international gates.
The move here is simple: order a rum punch and keep it to one or two. Staff usually pour with a heavier hand than a hotel bar, and the punch uses local rum, so the drink comes off stronger than the fruit-forward color suggests. Expect pricing in the mid-teens USD once taxes and airport uplift hit, in line with other Caribbean airport bars. Food, if offered, is secondary; treat this as a drinks stop, not dinner.
Online reviews for Piarco mention “the airport bar” generically but rarely tag Bar Lime by name, so you’re flying somewhat blind on service expectations and crowd patterns. That said, a bar that runs daily to 23:00 inside a single-terminal field like POS tends to draw departing crews and passengers from at least three or four evening banks, which can mean slowdowns around 18:00–21:00.
Tip: grab your rum punch here after clearing security in the North Terminal, then walk to your gate with drink time already banked instead of cutting it close at boarding minus 20.
