We only had it for a short time, but unfortunately, the food cart turned fast-food chain The Halal GuysĀ has quietly closed its only Vancouver outpost.

Signs in the window show that the restaurant is now “Permanently Closed.”

This famous chain is known for its authentic American Halal food with menu items like platters and sandwiches stuffed with chicken, gyro, and falafel and served with its signature white sauce.

The food cart turned fast-food chain originated in New York City in the ’90s and has since amassed a cult-like following, operating over 100 locations across the globe. It opened this Vancouver location in July 2023.

This was the fast-food chain’s only B.C. location. In July 2024, the chain also closed its Calgary location. Currently, it only has two Canadian locations, both of which can be found in Ontario.

Dished reached out to The Halal Guys regarding the closure but did not hear back in time for publication.
