Halal Information
Dairy Queen has over 7000 restaurants in more than 20 countries.
In Muslim countries such as UAE & Qatar, Dairy Queen’s menu is 100% halal.
However, in North America, Dairy Queen sources meat from different farms and companies, and there is no official halal certification for their meat. So, they don’t have a certified halal menu.
One of their locations in Davis, California was presumably halal but it was closed down 9 years ago.
Obviously, there are many non-meat items on the menu which halal observers can consume, such as their:
- Beverages – including Mocha MooLatte and Orange Julius
- Desserts – such as their Hot Fudge Sundae and Snickers Blizzard Treat, and
- Snacks like their Fries, Onion Rings and Cheese Curds
Halal Caveat
You should always verify the halal status with the restaurant directly just to be sure!
Restaurants change their meat suppliers and their policies constantly.
Furthermore, individual franchise locations change ownership all the time. So one location’s owner can use halal meat but can sell it to a new owner who chooses not to. So, to make sure that you have the latest information — reach out to the establishment!
