This place is a real goldmine for anything British/Irish, and I can get all my favourite foods from childhood here. His selection of frozen pies, bacon, haggis, jams, clotted cream, crisps (chips) and sweets (candy) is impressive, and pricing is good for imported foods. Alan is a wonderful man, very attentive and knows where absolutely everything is. The only drawback is that public parking can sometimes be hard to find as it fills up quickly outside.

Although he be small, he be huge in what he carries. He, being Allen the Owner. Absolutely a funny, kind and attentive shopkeeper. Krystal also is so friendly and helpful. A wonderful pair whomever is there when you stop in. A clean and well organized shop. PLENTY of choices whether it be tea, sweets, gifts, frozen meats or turnovers and the best damn ketchup EVER. The list goes on. The rooms are small but what Allen carries in this shop is amazing. This shop has encouraged us to also check out Northampton. Wow this town has a lot to offer. If you're not familiar with it, like us, definitely look into the town/city before making a trip. Make a day of it. And bring a cooler for the turnover, popovers and meats you'll be toting home :)

Only improvement would be if they carried beer from the region and maybe a deli counter.

The store isn't the most organized but it's only because they carry so many different items that you'll be hard-pressed to not find what you need.

I no longer live/work close to them, and I wish that they would expand to my direction. However, they work very hard to make sure that we all leave w a smile on our face and are very satisfied with the service/food that we received. They deserve a 5 review!
