Denpasar, Bali is one of the popular tourist destinations in Indonesia, following its variety of unique cultures, local wisdom, and the majority of its society embraced Hinduism. However, the appeal shows the high increase of food stalls with halal labeling. Thus, this article aims to provide an overview of the growing and the development of halal food stalls within non-Muslim society along with its spatial distribution. The segmented growth of halal and non-halal food stalls continues to grow following Denpasar’s image as a tourist destination and becomes essential although not the primary element of tourism development. A field survey method with a ground check approach was conducted to obtain spatial data. Observation and interviews of halal and non-halal culinary entrepreneurs are carried out afterward. This research found the development of halal food stalls in the city of Denpasar grow significantly even though the dynamics of society also emerge. The existence of halal stalls supports tourism in terms of providing facilities and services. This supports the image of a tourist destination.
