Meat toppings
Domino's UK pepperoni, ham and bacon are pork. Its chicken and beef toppings are not sold as halal, so treat them as not halal unless your local store shows a certificate.
Vegetarian pizzas
A vegetarian pizza avoids the meat, but cheese and dough are handled on shared surfaces. Some cheeses use animal rennet — see is mozzarella halal?
How to check a branch
Halal status can differ from one branch to the next and can change. Check the brand's own restaurant finder or allergen and halal page, look for the certificate on display, and ask staff which items are halal and how they are cooked.
Is Domino's chicken halal?
Domino's UK does not describe its stores or meat as halal. In the past, a company spokesperson explained that most of its chicken comes from suppliers in Thailand whose chicken is certified halal by local religious authorities, while its chicken wings come from European suppliers, some of which are not halal. Domino's has also told customers that its chicken is stunned before slaughter.
| Item | Halal status | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Chicken toppings | Not certified in UK stores | Some sourced from halal-certified suppliers, but not certified in store |
| Chicken wings | Not halal | Some wing suppliers are not halal |
| Pepperoni, ham, bacon | Haram | Pork |
| Vegetarian pizzas | No meat | Same ovens and counters as pork toppings |
In 2025 Domino's UK and Ireland published a halal statement alongside its chicken welfare commitments, and it trialled a halal-only store in Birmingham before returning it to the standard menu.
Domino's halal or not: the short answer
Because the stores are not halal-certified and pork toppings are prepared in the same kitchens, most Muslims treat Domino's UK as not halal. Halal pizza chains and independent halal pizzerias are common in UK cities.
Domino's in other countries
Domino's in Muslim-majority countries, such as Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Malaysia and Pakistan, serves halal-certified menus. In the USA, Canada and Australia, Domino's is not halal-certified.
