Answer

Respected Brother-in-Islam

Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu

Shari'ah has emphasised on exercising precaution in Halaal and Haraam. If any outlet sells Haraam items as well, one should abstain as such an outlet cannot be trusted.

If the outlet sells only Halaal and is supervised by a trustworthy Muslim, then one may eat from there.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
