Subway's halal status varies significantly by location, with some international branches (like in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and certain UK/Ireland stores) being fully certified halal, while most North American and Australian locations are not generally halal-certified, often serving pork and having cross-contamination risks, though some locations may offer halal options or vegetarian/egg-based items suitable for some dietary needs. Always check with your specific local Subway to confirm their offerings and certifications.
No, Subway® Australia does not offer Halal products. Although some of our suppliers are Halal accredited we are unable to provide Halal products to our guests as we serve products on our menu that contain pork. Subway® restaurants across Australia are not Halal certified to serve Halal products.
For more than 50 years, Subway's mission has been to let customers design their own sandwiches, and to serve local tastes through a network of locally-owned restaurants. That hasn't changed. Since 2007, a limited number of Subway® locations in the UK and Ireland have offered a Halal menu.
Subway locations serve pork and other non- halal meats, leading to high risks of cross- contamination with shared gloves, utensils, and prep areas.
In Australia, major chains like McDonald's, KFC, and Hungry Jack's offer halal options only at select, specific locations in areas with high Muslim populations (like certain Sydney and Melbourne suburbs), while Red Rooster is generally halal-certified across Australia; other local burger joints (like El Jannah, Burgertory, Royal Stacks) often cater to halal diners, but verification for specific branches and avoiding cross-contamination (bacon) is crucial.
KFC Australia does not have all stores certified Halal, but many locations use Halal-certified chicken from suppliers like Ingham's and Steggles, even if the store itself isn't fully certified, requiring customers to check specific outlets or use resources like Halal Advisor for Halal-certified locations (especially in Sydney) or call ahead to confirm their specific chicken source.

If you've ever wondered what goes into the meatballs at Subway, you may be surprised to learn that it's actually a mixture of these two meats: beef and pork. Armadillo and possum. Don't know but I'm sure it's cylindrical and comes from a can. Peter Newman Sr.
SINGAPORE - Fast-food chain Subway announced in a Facebook post on Friday (Aug 31) that its Singapore outlets had been officially certified halal by the Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (Muis), the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore.
Muslims can eat at McDonald's depending on the location and specific items, as some countries (like in the Middle East) offer certified Halal meat, while in others (like the US/UK), it's generally not considered fully Halal due to cross-contamination concerns with pork and lack of specific certification, requiring Muslims to rely on veggie options or choose locations known to meet strict Halal standards.
Whilst our beef and chicken suppliers normally produce our meat to Halal standards our restaurant is not Halal certified, and the kitchen also prepares bacon products. We cannot guarantee no cross-contamination of our products.
Not all Subway stores are halal—only about 200 out of 2,000+ UK locations offer a halal-certified menu in 2025. These stores serve meats like Chicken Tikka and Turkey Ham, sourced with stunning per EU welfare laws, and skip pork entirely.
Yes, a large portion of Australian beef is halal, especially for export, due to the Australian Government Authorised Halal Program (AGAHP) (AGAHP), which ensures compliance with Shariah law, involving certified Muslim slaughtermen and government oversight for processing and certification, but consumers should look for specific halal certification marks for guaranteed halal products, as not all Australian beef is processed this way.
Subway Australia, like the global brand, operates on a franchise model, meaning individual restaurants are owned by independent franchisees, such as The Shamim Group (a large operator). The entire Subway corporation, including the Australian arm, was acquired in 2023 by the private equity firm Roark Capital, which now owns the brand and its intellectual property.
Similarly, there's a lot more to Subway's steak than just beef, and although that's the first — and main — ingredient, there's a surprising number of other ingredients, too. According to the official list of ingredients for Subway, beef and water are the two main ingredients.
Yes. SUBWAY®'s Veggie Delite and Veg Shammi are the two favorites among various other vegetarian options available at nearly all our SUBWAY® restaurants in India. With nine vegetarian subs and an equal number of salad options, around 50 per cent of SUBWAY®'s menu for India is vegetarian.
Subway locations currently fresh slice vegetables and freshly bakes bread and cookies daily. Adding freshly sliced meat “felt like the natural step that we needed to get back to and address,” Trevor Haynes, president for Subway's North America operations, told CNN.
Ingredients used in making Subway tuna

No, Taco Bell in Australia is generally not considered fully halal because while their meat suppliers might use halal-certified practices, the restaurants themselves don't have specific halal certification, meaning cross-contamination is a risk and the final product isn't guaranteed to be halal, though some vegetarian options are suitable and specific stores might offer limited halal choices.
