The restaurant announces their initiative to give customers a VAT free experience for the months of January and February.
January, 2019 – Manama, Bahrain: Al Abraaj Restaurant and Mashawi Al Abraaj are set to introduce their local initiative that will reward their customers with a VAT-free dine-in, takeaway, and delivery experience by discounting the 5% VAT from every bill through the months of January and February 2019 in all their locations around Bahrain.
