Calling all halal foodies! Finding places that serve halal food can sometimes be a challenge, but not to worry! We’ve rounded up a bunch of little gems across the city where you can indulge. Check out this list.
Sbarro
Sbarro is one of the scarce halal options on the food scene at Bramalea City Centre. The meat they use on their pizzas is halal, including the pepperoni which is beef. As of right now, Sbarro has closed down in the secondary food court at the Bramalea City Centre but it’s set to reopen soon in the main food court so be on the lookout.

Fusion Flame
Many hakka restaurants in Brampton tend to use halal meat but Fusion Flame easily serves up some of the best hakka food in the city. The Manchurian Chicken just so happens to be a crowd favourite and the Fusion Flame fish is pretty delicious too.

Paramount Fine Foods
Paramount is taking over the Middle Eastern food scene, with locations sprouting up across Canada, Brampton being one of those lucky cities. The menu is vast, with offerings for every meal of the day. Wraps, pita, hummus, pizza and so much more is available. It’s a crowd pleaser no doubt, with options to suit lots of tastes.

Kwality Sweets and Restaurant
If you’re like me and adore Indian food, then you’ll appreciate what Kwality has to offer. I recently discovered this little gem and I fell in love. They have a wide variety of veg and non-veg options to choose from, including a delicious butter chicken. Their selection of sweets is vast too. Their prices won’t hurt your wallet too much either. For just $9.00, you can get a vegetarian thali that includes 3 vegetable curries with rice, raita (a cool condiment, similar to yogurt), salad, achar (a condiment containing pickles), dessert and your choice between naan, roti or extra rice. How amazing is that?

Drupati’s Roti and Doubles
How can one make a list of food places without adding in a Caribbean restaurant? Drupati’s Roti and Doubles on Sandalwood is an amazing choice for authentic food that tastes great with prices and portion sizes that really gives you a bang for your buck. Students can also flash their ID cards to get a special discount!

Hero Burger serves up a delicious certified all-halal menu including beef, veggie and turkey burgers that you can use as a base to create a unique burger with ciabatta and sesame poppy-seed buns and plenty of other options. You also have delicious sides to accompany your creation such as sweet potato fries, poutine and specialty milkshakes.

Poutine Dare to be Fresh!
You don’t have to be French to love a good poutine. But as a halal eater, you know the struggles of finding a place that serves gravy that’s vegetarian and delicious is especially hard. The good news is, Dare to Be Fresh has you covered. They have plenty of delicious options, including an onion ring poutine! My personal favourite is their Krabby Patty & Shrimp poutine, it’s super good.

Shawarma Queen
Shawarma Queen is a casual little spot for halal mediterranean food in the core of Brampton. Enjoy everything from tasty wraps and pitas to soups, salads and heaping plates of shawarma. Prices are extremely reasonable and portions are huge. This spot is perfect for those days when you need lots of sustinence.
