[QUOTE=penguinbar;10103321]That's Myers of Keswick http://www.myersofkeswick.com/
I like Economy Candy Better

If you are in or near NYC the Butcher Block in Sunnyside has a great selection as well.[/
It wasn't Keswick's I was referring to, have never heard of it, BUT it looks amazing. Thanks for opening my eyes to this little gem, will try and get there soon. The one I had gone to was next to A Salt and Battery chip shop and Tea and Sympathy down in Greenwich Village but it was nowhere near as good as Keswick's looks!

Myers of Keswick's is just around the corner from A Salt and Battery. I didn't know there was another shop there!

Re: Proper English Sweets
What a pain to hear the prices are high at the shop. The food they sell at a booth at one of these "Irish" festivals is moderately expensive, but I thought that was just the way of these occasions. Oh well.

The shop is sandwiched between the chippy and the tea shop. They don't have a huge range but the store itself reminds me of the one in Open All Hours, worth popping in if you are passing. I told my husband about Myers of Keswick's he then proceeded to spend 20 mins on their website drooling over their pies

It's a nice atmospheric little place! I always pop in for a Double Decker after I've finished my chips!
