The old Holder’s House has found a new rhythm. Once home to the legendary Boscoe Holder, the historic space has quietly reopened as Islavino Brunch & Bistro Lounge — less a grand unveiling, more a lovely discovery. Tucked into the city, it feels like a quiet but perfect oasis with art and style, where Caribbean creativity, good food and easy conversation flow naturally.
Islavino Brunch & Bistro Lounge is a creative venue and boutique dining space rooted in Caribbean artistry, food culture and community. Simple food, good wines and artistic expression come together without fuss, creating moments that feel personal rather than produced. Beyond the table, the space also doubles as a creative hub and training ground, nurturing food and beverage enthusiasts and supporting growth within Trinidad and Tobago’s hospitality scene.
If you’re curious to experience it for yourself — whether for brunch, a small gathering or a creative project — you can reach out to the Islavino team at islavinobrunchbistro@gmail.com
