Not only is Chaophraya absolutely gorgeous, but it's also one of the best halal restaurants in Glasgow city centre, with a number of scrumptious options up for grabs. Head to the opulent venue to feast on Thai treats accompanied by a lineup of non-alcoholic cocktails.
Serving up a vast selection of pan-Asian cuisine, Bar Soba (which you can also find on Mitchell Lane and Byres Road) specialises in curries, sushi and salads, with plenty of halal options. It's also the ideal place to sip mocktails with pals at the weekend.
This fancy halal restaurant in Glasgow features elegant decor, with dark panelled wood and low-hanging lights. Chaakoo Bombay Cafe's menu is as gorgeous as the venue, featuring Indian small plates that are made for sharing, using ingredients sourced from certified halal suppliers.
The clue is in the name of this iconic burger spot. Located both in the city centre and the West End, Bread Meats Bread offers a range of halal options - just check with your server before ordering. In for a spicy challenge? Try out the chilli-topped angry bird.
From the same team behind Bread Meats Bread, Babs is bringing posh kebabs to the city centre. Serving up halal chicken and lamb at affordable prices, this is the ideal cheap lunch spot - but they don't take reservations, so pitch up early, especially if you're going at the end of Ramadan.
Serving up 'Berlin kebaps', Doner Haus assures that, while not all their products are halal, the doner and shawarma are both certified, plus they take great care with the way they store, cook and serve all of their dishes. To top it off, the light and contemporary venue is the perfect place to chill.
