There are a couple down here, depends on what you want, neither sell alot of stuff, one is in the Myers Centre, 2nd floor I think, but I cant remember the name of it. It's basically a lolly shop with some UK stuff thrown in.

There is also one down at Sanctuary Cove, it's a chocolate shop (they handmake yummy choccies!), I think it's called The Chocolate Shop or similar.

Sorry cant help with websites, but you should be able to find those 2 by looking in white or yellow pages, someone else may have online stores that may be better & stock more stuff.

Hi, theres a British Shop in Robina Town Centre which is about an hour or so south of Brisbane. I believe it's quite good and looking at their web site, it looks like you can order on line.

Theres also this palce in Loganholme just south of Brissie - They say Scottish but I think British would be a more accurate description (apart from the Hagis!!!;) )
