Don't know if there is a thread for this yet, but just thought I would get the ball rolling so we can share where we can get our favourite Brit supplies for ourselves or our partners.

Im in Washington and found that you can get a great list of places on the Seattle UK Embassy website.

First there is Anglomania in Issaquah, and 2nd in Redmond is The British Pantry. Also found a restaurant & Pub in Snohomish!

Cmon and share! Make sure you name your State first so we can see where you are at.

When shopping for my dear Brit in NC, it's a bit of here and there. World Market or any Whole Foods/Trader Joe's/Earth Fare seems to have decent Brit accommodations like Coleman's Mustard, Heinz baked beans, and McVitty Bisquits.

I'm in Salt Lake City, UT. And I always go to a place called The British Pantry on 652 South West Temple. I think there's another place as well. But I love The British Pantry, the owner Abu is really cool and loves chatting about the UK and what life is like here for a British Ex-pat.

It's called The British Pantry and it's at 652 South West Temple, right near the Red Lion hotel downtown. :) It's a fun little store, I always enjoy going there, I'm sure she will too. :thumbs:

I have a strange question to ask, not exactly about food, but food related. Has anyone seen stores over here that sell egg cups? I've been looking for some for a while, to no avail. Just wondering if anyone else had found any.

Oh yeah! I've seen them mainly in specialty stores, like World Market or English Stores that have ceramics. I always call them Egg biers (thank you German class!). You can probably also find them online.
