Question 1

Are all restaurants on The Desi Directory halal?

Accepted Answer

No — we cover a wide range of South Asian and multicultural restaurants. This Halal Hub specifically filters for restaurants that have been marked as serving halal food. We recommend confirming halal status directly with the restaurant before visiting, as certification and sourcing can change.

Question 2

What does HMC certified mean?

Accepted Answer

HMC (Halal Monitoring Committee) is one of the UK's most widely recognised halal certification bodies. HMC-certified restaurants and butchers follow strict rules including hand-slaughter, no mechanical slaughter, and full traceability. Many UK Muslims specifically look for the HMC mark.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Use the search bar above to enter your postcode or city, then filter by 'Halal' to see only halal-certified restaurants in your area. You can also browse by city using the popular cities section below, or go straight to the ranked guides for your city.

Question 4

Are halal takeaways included?

Accepted Answer

Yes — our Halal Restaurants category includes both sit-down restaurants and halal takeaways. If you specifically want takeaway-only listings, check our dedicated Halal Takeaway page.

Question 5

Do halal restaurants serve alcohol?

Accepted Answer

Many strictly halal restaurants in the UK do not serve alcohol, in line with Islamic guidelines. However, some halal-meat restaurants do have alcohol licences. Individual listings typically mention whether alcohol is served. If this is important to you, check the restaurant's page or call ahead.
