'......new owners turned it into an Italian bakery and it was shit and quickly closed up I think. Major shame.'
Brilliant!! I really miss this kind of abrupt, say it as it is humor....

Re: UK Foods in the US Share your finds!
Dont know if these have been mentioned before.. forgive me for not going thru 50-odd pages, but here in Waco Texas we have a Frugals store which sells some Brit foods but they change stock very quickly and what might be there one week probably wont be the next. I have had Colmans casserole mixes, HP Beans, Bird's custard and all manner of pantry food as dirt cheap compared to the online sites.
The other closest Brit food I have found wa at HEB in Killeen (it caters for the military at Ft Hood). They have a small section with the usual items but not overly cheap. Goodwoods in The Woodlands in Houston (oneline) also has a warehouse he sells from and have visited there from Time to Time.

Finally went to the British chip shop in New York over the weekend, A Salt and Battery, it was amazing!! Battered sausage, chips, mushy peas and gravy, yum, yum. I think I can pretty much find everything now that I miss in terms of food from back home

Don't know if this has been mentioned - Hare & Hounds in Thousand Oaks.
They just got all the Easter Eggs in - whooo-hooooo!
Also, the sausage rolls are the best I have ever tasted. Prepared by an English butcher - it's the closest I've come to finding the real thing.
Oh, and real bacon too.

Greenwich Ave, between 12th & 13th St. Not much seating inside but benches outside and a small park area at the end of the street. British food shop next door and tea shop. It was packed!

Todays finds
I went into the new Fresh and Easy in Folsom CA nice and clean but hey it's brand new, got a Yorkie bar and a few bits, did notice that Robinson's Barley water was $3.99 and Heinz beans were $1.49 but still not impressed with the place.
Yet again the 99c store saw me coming
