Art Studio is less than a five minutes walk from 1st and 2nd Street, Holetown, where you will find an amazing array of restaurants, bars and clubs.

If we start with 2nd Street here you will find Lexy's Piano Bar, where there is a party going on most nights of the week, but their liveliest nights are on the weekend Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They always have live entertainment with someone on the piano, and on a Sunday evening they have karaoke. Here you can spot some very famous personalities, who are staying on the west coast and like to frequent this bar. You can eat here as well.

Right on the corner, as you turn into 2nd Street you will find Olive's Bar & Restaurant, which serves Mediterranean and Cantonese food.

If you fancy eating Indian food then head to Sitar.

For pizza and Italian food lovers, then you should head to Spago

For those who like French cuisine and fresh seafood, then The Mews

is the place for you. This is a delightful restaurant with a large bar area and they often have live entertainment as well.

Just a few doors down from The Mews, you will find The Elbow Room, which occasionally has live entertainment and a good menu and is usually a comfortable place to hang out and have a few drinks.

Turning in to 1st Street Holetown you will find even more bars and restaurants.

Here you will find Blue Rare bar and restaurant and the infamous Ragamuffins, which is known for its drag act on a Sunday night.There is also the Oasis Bar and Angry Annie's restaurant, which serves great food at a very reasonable price,

Finally on the corner of 1st Street, you will find Patisserie Flindt, which is open during the day selling wonderful fresh pastries and freshly baked bread; you can enjoy a delicious breakfast or lunch here, so do drop in when you are passing for some sheer decadence!

For that very special treat visit Fisher Pond Great House for Sunday lunch. Booking is essential.

This is what Michael Winner had to say about his visit:

"After 26 years of going every Christmas-New Year to Barbados I’ve at last found a great restaurant there. One that ranks with the finest in the world. John’s home and/or restaurant is a beautiful plantation house originally built in 1635 in the middle of cane fields. You drive down a rutted track. It’s Barbados as it used to be. The place is furnished with exquisite antiques, the table settings, napkins, everything is perfection.

The Cliff Restaurant and Lone Star Restaurant, both Internationally acclaimed, are a 5 minutes drive.

Barbados is famous for wonderful cuisine, exquisite rum, a thriving artistic community and the infectious beat of calypso and reggae.

As well as excellent diving, sailing and game fishing, Barbados offers plenty of opportunity for land-based pursuits, with high quality horse racing at historic Garrison Savannah, prestigious golf tournaments, top-class polo and, of course, wherever you go, there is cricket.

The golf courses of Royal Westmoreland and Sandy Lane are a 5 minutes drive with Royal Barbados some 20 minutes.

The Kensington Oval, the best known of all West Indian Cricket Grounds is around 20 minutes away.
