When will the 63 restaurants reopen?
The selected restaurants will reopen for both dine-in and dine-out services on Thursday 13 August.
Each of the 63 pizzerias set to reopen will support the government’s ‘Eat Out to Help Out’ scheme throughout the month of August for dine-in customers to enjoy 50 percent off their bill.
