France has one of the largest Muslim communities in Europe, which means halal food, mosques and prayer spaces are widely available — especially in the big cities.
Paris and the big cities
Paris offers an exceptional range of halal restaurants across nearly every neighborhood, from artisan kebabs to fine dining. Lyon, Marseille, Lille and Strasbourg all have vibrant halal food scenes and central mosques.
Finding halal and prayer
Look for the "Halal" sign, or restaurants run by Muslim families. Prayer spaces exist in and around mosques and some transport hubs — find the closest with our nearest mosque tool and check prayer times.
