Is TGI Fridays Halal in the UK?

Quick answer It depends

We have not seen a statement from TGI Fridays that its UK menu is halal, so treat the meat as not halal unless your branch shows a certificate. Many dishes use pork, bacon or alcohol-based glazes. Vegetarian dishes are the simplest choice; ask about glazes and fryers.

Also asked as: “Is TGI Fridays chicken halal?” · “Can Muslims eat at TGI Fridays?”

What to check

  • Bourbon and Jack Daniel's glazes contain alcohol.
  • Bacon on burgers and salads.

How to check a branch

Check the chain's own website or allergen guide, look for a halal certificate on display and its date, and ask staff which items are halal and how they are cooked. Franchise branches can differ from each other.

What TGI Fridays UK says

TGI Fridays UK's FAQ has the question "Is your food halal?" and answers: "At the moment we don't currently offer halal produce in our restaurants."

Its menu includes pork and alcohol-based sauces, so the answer applies to the whole restaurant, not to individual dishes. The company's UK restaurants were reported to be in administration at the end of 2025, so check that a branch is still open before you plan a visit.
