Joe Jones | HMPE26

If you’ve been to Mecca’s new Bourke Street store, you might’ve stumbled across the hidden bar run by Joe Jones, serving drinks as he continues to push the boundaries of what hospitality can mean.

In this episode, we sit down with Joe, who is both a bartender and the creative mind behind Romeo Lane and Purple Pit.

We talk about what it takes to build a career in hospitality, the decision to close the doors of Romeo Lane, and how his approach to drinks has evolved as the world shifts toward drinking less alcohol. Joe also shares his honest (and hilarious) take on what your drink order might say about you.

This one’s a chill chat, the kind that feels like a conversation with your favourite bartender: easy, honest, and full of stories.

Thank you for listening! We are so grateful we get to do this thing and it really means the world to us to have supporters like yourself listening in.
