Brunch is possibly one of the best things to do in the city. It’s vibrant, it’s fun, and it’s a brilliant way to spend time with your favourite people.
Much like this popular weekly affair, Christmas brunches in Bahrain are just as awesome – but in full-on holiday mode.
Think: decked halls, colourful menus, festive music on blast, surprise gifts, and even a special visit from Santa.

If there’s any plan that should make it out of the group chat, let it be this.
It’s about time you finally make the meet-up happen with your former work bestie, old friends, or relatives that you’ve rescheduled a hundred times because of your busy schedules.
Don’t let another season slip by without making those plans.
