Heading to Westfield for a shopping trip and looking to grab a bite? Then check out this Westfield White City Halal Food guide where we list out all the halal food options you can find in the mall, featuring everything from quick bites to sit-down meals! We have definitely spent a fair bit of time at Westfield White City as we live nearby. I’m not really a shopper, so the time we spent at Westfield is really mostly for food in the area. Luckily, there are quite a few options around and we will keep updating this list if anything new pops up!

Halal Food at Westfield Terrace (Shepherds Bush station side)
Copper Chimney
If you’re looking for a nice sit-down meal, then check out Copper Chimney. The Indian restaurant features a lovely interior & decor that’s perfect to wind down after a day of strolling at the mall. Food-wise, Copper Chimney makes some of the best Chicken Tikka & Burrah Lamb Chops, however, their curries are hit-and-miss except for the Butter Chicken.
Halal Status: All meats served are halal. No pork but alcohol is served at the restaurant.
Balans Soho Society
If you’re looking for a brunch/lunch spot before your shopping adventures, Balans Soho Society could be an option. They serve halal chicken and beef, and its menu offers a good selection of classic brunch dishes. If you’re feeling a little naughty, try out the Togarashi Buttermilk Chicken Doughnut – yep, that’s fried chicken in a doughnut and don’t knock it till you try it! We have tried their breakfast menu and thought it was okay but nothing spectacular.
Halal Status: Chicken & beef are halal. Pork and alcohol are served at the restaurant.
Mandaloun
You’ll see people chilling and having shisha as you walk past Mandaloun. The Lebanese restaurant has a pretty big menu featuring mezze, salads, wraps, stews, and plenty of grills. However, we haven’t always heard the best things about the food – we haven’t actually tried it to confirm anything though.
Halal status: All meats served are halal.
Cabana
The Brazilian chain restaurant, Cabana, specialises in Spicy Malagueta Chicken skewers which arrive at your table in a giant skewer before the staff neatly slide them onto a plate for you. You can choose your glaze between Spicy Malagueta, Guava Barbecue or Honey Glaze, and you can pick up extra sauces from their counter like Nandos-style. Enjoy it with a side of Biro-Biro Rice, Churrasco Fries, and/or Rio Black Beans to complete your Latin-inspired meal!
Halal status: Chicken & lamb are halal. Alcohol and pork are served at the restaurant.
GBK Burgers
Before we got spoilt with amazing halal fried chicken burgers around London, GBK Burgers used to be a go-to spot for an easy fried chicken burger fix. They do halal panko chicken across all branches nationwide. Our go-to combo used to be the Panko Satay Chicken Burger and a creamy chocolate milkshake. Always remember to get the panko chicken and not the grilled chicken as the latter is cooked with other non-halal items.
Halal status: Only the Panko Chicken is halal. Pork is served at the restaurant.
Halal Options at Westfield Food Court & Atrium
Indi-go
Thinking about Indian food but don’t feel like a proper sit-down meal at Copper Chimney? Then Indi-go is your quick and easy fix. Enjoy a range of street food classics such as masala fries, chaat, momos, etc. as well as tandoori grills, curries, and dum biryani. Some dishes are better than others, but as far as no-fuss food-court food goes, I suppose it’s an alright pick. Personally, we like to go for the Rogan Ghost.
Halal status: All meats served are halal. No pork or alcohol is served.
Master Bao
Asian baos are all the rage these days and you can enjoy them at Master Bao in Westfield. Enjoy the likes of Taiwanese fried chicken bao, which is paired with wasabi mayo, kimchi, and coriander; or check out the fried prawns, teriyaki shiitake mushrooms, or braised tofu options. Alternatively, they also have fried rice & noodles options, as well as a small but good selection of small plates such as gyozas and such.
Halal status: Chicken & beef are halal. Pork and alcohol are present on the menu.

Mrs Chew’s
If you fancy halal Cantonese food, Mrs Chew’s is an option. Its menu offers a selection of dim sums, Chinese roast chicken and/or duck, and various stir-fry dishes. The food’s not a hundred per cent stellar & authentic, but they do occasionally do a decent roast duck. Best to avoid the stir-fries, in my opinion. You can read our full review of Mrs Chew’s Chinese Kitchen here.
Halal status: All meats served are halal. No pork is served on the menu.
Pho
The Vietnamese franchise may not be the most authentic representation of Vietnamese cuisines but, as far as halal-friendly ones, Pho is an option. For pho noodle soups, only the Spicy Chicken Pho, Curry Noodle Soup, and vegetarian ones are halal. The regular chicken pho isn’t halal as the broth isn’t. Pho aside, their Vietnamese Curries are a shout too.
Halal status: Chicken is halal. Pork is present on the menu.
Tortilla
For a quick but filling bite, Tortilla is definitely a good option. You can’t go wrong with their Build-You-Own Burrito, where you get to choose between chicken (which is halal), grilled vegetables, or vegan chilli, and pick & choose your own choice of rice, beans, fresh salsas, and guacamole. If a burrito is too heavy, then try their tacos or rice bowls, which are lighter options. For something sweet, they have recently added chocolate churros onto their menu as well!
Halal status: Chicken is halal. Pork is present on the menu.
Pizza Pilgrims
It was this very branch in Westfield that Pizza Pilgrims started trialling out halal pepperoni on their menu. Following its success, halal pepperoni is now available across all branches! Your pizza is handled and cooked separately as well to avoid any cross-contamination.
Halal status: Halal pepperoni available. Pork is present on the menu.
Comptoir Libanais
Comptoir Libanais has been a solid Lebanese eatery across London. Enjoy a variety of mezze (can’t go wrong with some falafels and kibbeh), salads, meat grills, as well as their Lebanese burgers, wraps, and tagine dishes. Food court-quality food inevitably won’t be as good as their actual restaurant’s but it does the job. From our personal experience, we thought the mezze was okay but the meat grills were not quite worth it.
Halal status: All meats served are halal.
Catch Me
If you are craving fish & chips, Catch Me offers halal ones along with other seafood options on their menu. Whilst definitely not the best fish & chips around town, it was reasonable for a quick food court fix. Though the same couldn’t be really said about their pasta dishes, which came overcooked. Alternatively, should you be craving meat together with your seafood, they also offer a halal chicken burger option on the menu.
Halal status: All meats served are halal.
Morty & Bob
Morty & Bob are most known for their grilled cheese sandwiches, featuring rich and oozy cheese filled with either mixed onions or mushrooms & truffle. Additionally, their chimichurri steak sarnie was a good pick and rotisserie chicken is also available on the menu.
Halal status: Chicken, beef & lamb are halal for this branch only.
Byron’s Burger
If you take the stairs up from the food court to the Atrium, you’d find the nationwide burger chain, Byron’s. They have recently added a chicken burger range which is halal! You can choose between grilled or buttermilk deep-fried chicken. Do note that they use chicken breast, so it’s not going to be as succulent and flavoursome as chicken thighs. But we’ve heard positive reviews for the chicken burgers, especially the deep-fried chicken ones, and it’s always great to see a national chain opening up its food to a more diverse crowd!
Halal status: Chicken is halal. Pork and alcohol are present on the menu.
Westfield Square (near John Lewis)
Bindas Eatery
Bindas Eatery is the newest restaurant addition in Westfield White City. Started out as a pop-up in Westfield, Bindas Eatery went on to open their first restaurant in Mayfair and has now opened a second branch back at where it all started. Find them at the Westfield Square by the John Lewis side and enjoy a warming cup of House Chai or Rose Chai while munching down their signature Butter Chicken Bomb Burger. Their curries are pretty nice too and you ought to try out their unique Za’atar & Truffle Paratha.
Halal status: All meats served are halal. Alcohol is served at the restaurant.
All Star Lanes
Bowling nights are always fun. Next time you are at All Star Lanes for some fun activities, you can also enjoy yourselves a little munch if you’re peckish or sit down at their restaurant area for more food. All Star Lanes offer halal chicken across all branches where you can enjoy different flavoured wings (cajun/buffalo/bbq) and crispy buttermilk fried chicken burgers or buns. You can opt for the Bowl, Drink & Dine Menu – which includes a game of bowling plus a 2-course menu and drinks. For groups, a family bundle menu is also available.
Halal status: Chicken is halal. Pork is present on the menu.
Sit-down Coffee Shops
Ole & Steen Westfield
If you’re looking for a place to sit down with a coffee & pastry, especially if you like cinnamon buns, then you must head to Ole & Steen. Their Cinnamon Social Slice is a go-to treat and there are plenty of other Danish pastries and sandwiches to choose from as well. In terms of savoury options, we especially enjoy the tuna melt at this branch.
Location: 1st Floor (near John Lewis)
Halal status: No halal meats served. Vegetarian & seafood options available.
Java Whiskers Cat Cafe
This is one for all cat lovers. Java Whiskers Cat Cafe, as described in its name, is a coffee shop full of cats for you to pet & play around with while you enjoy some sweet treats & coffee.
Location: Westfield Square
Halal status: No halal meats served. Vegetarian options available.
Caffe Concerto
I have had a rather poor experience at Caffe Concerto so I’m not a big fan of any of their stores. But they do seem to have a loyal crowd and the cafe at The Village section of Westfield is indeed a nice place to sit down for a drink & quick bite. You can also find them as a kiosk on the 1st level next to the food court.
Location: Kiosk on 1st Level & Cafe on 2nd Level at The Village
Desserts & Snacks
The Alley
It makes me the happiest person that The Alley has opened up a stall in Westfield White City. Whenever you’re craving good bubble tea, this is the place to be. My personal favourite is the Brown Sugar Creme Brulee Boba Milk and the Crunchy Milk Tea!
Location: 1st floor (near food court)
Mamasons Dirty Ice Cream
Mamasons Dirty Ice Cream Westfield is the third branch of the popular Filipino ice cream parlour. You can find all things Ube there, including ice cream, Bilog, doughnuts, hot chocolate, iced latte, Halo-halo, etc. In addition to that, there is an exclusive treat for the Westfield branch, which is the Baklava Bilog!
Location: Ground Level
(near Shepherds Bush main entrance)
Ben’s Cookies
Freshly baked giant chunky cookies, you say? Yes, please! You can’t go wrong with a cookie treat from Ben’s Cookies. You won’t be able to miss them if you’re heading to Westfield from the Shepherds Bush station side. There are plenty of flavours for you to choose from and our go-to favourites are any of their chocolate chunk cookies.
Location: outside Shepherds Bush station
Mr Pretzels
I’ll let you on a little secret. I used to walk past Mr Pretzels, usually when heading to Boots, and they will always be handing out free samples for their Cinnamon Pretzels. They are honestly so irresistible and always left me wanting more! The signature cinnamon pretzels aside, you can enjoy a range of both sweet and savoury offerings including chocolate, toffee, salted, sesame, and more.
Location: Ground Level
Yole
Being on a diet doesn’t mean you have to miss out on desserts and treats! Need a guilt-free dessert? Yole has got your back. Their entire range of ice cream and frozen yoghurts are all at very low calories (only 55cals per 100ml) and no added sugar. The flavours were excellent, whether you’re actively seeking out low-calorie treats or not, and there are plenty of topping options for you to choose from.
Location: Ground Level
Little Moons
Little Moons’ mochi ice cream has been quite the popular treat these days. They are now widely available at various leading nationwide supermarkets and they also got a little kiosk at Westfield White City to fix your cravings. Enjoy a range of flavours, from classic vanilla, chocolate & hazelnut, matcha, pistachio, strawberry, mango, yuzu lemon, etc. and mix-and-match as you like without having to commit to a whole package from the supermarkets!
Location: Ground Level (near Boots)
Lola’s Cupcakes
Need a trusty cupcake fix or a last-minute birthday cake? You can’t go wrong with Lola’s Cupcakes. They are always a reliable pick when it comes to cake and my personal favourite is their red velvet flavour cake/cupcake and the rainbow cake. Classics aside, it’s definitely worth keeping an eye out for special flavours for different occasions like Ramadan, Eid, Easter, Wimbledon, etc.
Location: Ground Level
Wheelcake Island
Taiwanese wheel cakes are essentially custard-filled mini cakes. Wheelcake Island is the first to serve this traditional Taiwanese treat in London and offers classic east-Asian flavours such as vanilla custard, matcha, and Azuki red beans. In my opinion, the quality is no longer as great as it once was and the cake tasted dry. Boba is also available but I’d recommend saving the boba for The Alley, located upstairs, instead.
Location: Ground Level
Snowflake Gelato
Snowflake Gelato has been a pretty popular ice cream parlour in town, with stores all over central London. The Westfield store offers classic gelato scoops, sundaes, as well as waffles and crepes. You can find them on the 1st floor of Westfield near the food court. If you’re looking for an ice cream treat after your meal at the food court, it’s definitely one to check out.
Location: 1st Level (next to food court)
Pan N Ice
Speaking of ice cream, the hype might have died down on social media but Pan N Ice’s ice cream rolls remain a popular pick in Westfield. There is something satisfying to watch their ice cream rolls being made, from the chopping to rolling, it’s almost like you get a show out of it every time you order from them.
P.S. Did you know they do DIY kits for their ice cream rolls too? It comes with a mini electric pan, spatulas, and all the ingredients you need to recreate their ice cream rolls at home!
Location: 1st Level (near Nike)
Hotel Chocolat Westfield
Not only does Hotel Chocolat offers excellent confectionery gifts, but it also makes some of the best hot chocolates in London! Find the Hotel Chocolat shop at the ground level of Westfield and head straight to the back where you can order yourself a cup of hot chocolate and sit down to enjoy it.
Location: Ground Level
Crepeaffaire
If you’re near the John Lewis side of Westfield, Crepeaffaire is a great pick for a little pick-me-up treat with its selection of crepes. You can enjoy both sweet and savoury flavours (though only chicken is halal), and perhaps treat yourself to a nice little drink with it as well. Classic flavour-ed crepes aside, there are also lots of vegan options, and they have also added a range of waffles and mini pancakes on the menu!
Location: 1st Level (next to West Elm)
Bubbleology
Personally, I’m not a fan of Bubbleology and I’d definitely point you towards The Alley instead if you are looking for a good boba in Westfield White City. It’s alright if you don’t have many other options to choose from but that’s not the case here in London.
Location: 1st Level (next to Primark & John Lewis)
T4 Westfield
You won’t be able to miss T4 bubble tea if you are coming out from Shepherd’s Bush station to visit Westfield. For a nationwide chain, it’s okay. But London certainly has better boba options around town and there is also The Alley right inside Westfield as well.
Location: Outside Shepherds Bush station
