So What Happened?

I went onto the website at Taste of Britain, ordered my little luxuries and they arrived today! Fantastic.
Thanks again for all your input.

I think there is a store that sells British goodies, but it is in the old Norcross area. I don't know if that too far for you to drive, but I thought I would mention it just in case. Good luck!

Have you gone to Harry's in Marietta? Do you know where Harry's is? It has a whole ailse of British products. Also the World Cost Plus Markets carry some British products.

Harry's Farmer's Market it's off of Cobb Pkwy which is also know as (41) it's south on a street called Marietta Pkwy they have a website just look up the name. I have a friend from England and she shops there for many items she used in England. Also if they don't have it and you have the name of what you want they or even Publix can order it for you with no extra charge.

Although it isn't a British grocery store, you may be able to find some British goods at Cost Plus, World Market. There is one in Kennesaw by the DSW and behind the Chucky Cheese on Barrett Parkway.

Good luck!

Hi! I have a friend that is originally from the UK, also. She moved to Florida and then to Georgia. She had a grocery in FL that sold British goods, but she has not found one yet here. I also asked a co-worker and he says that Harry's Market in Marietta has an aisle with a few things on it. But, if you happen to find a store, could you possibly let me know where it is (if you remember)?
Thank you so much and good luck in your search! Will try to keep an ear out for anyone else that might know.

I second Harry's. I have found bird's custard and other things there (my husband loves Crunchy bars and this is one of the only places I have been able to find them, short of waiting for my MIL to go on a visit to Scotland!). You may not find everything there. I used to have the name of a British import-export shop here in Atlanta but I cannot remember the name, however I know that they do exist. I also know that if you go to the Highland Games in Stone Mountain you will find businesses selling from there and can probably get more info; however, that would mean your waiting until October or so and I'm sure you don't want to wait that long.

Hi J.,
Welcome to Atlanta! The only marked I know of that sells British groceries is Whole Foods/Harry's Farmers Market on Powers Ferry Rd in Marietta. It's probably a 10 to 15 minute drive from Acworth down 75 S. You can google it to get exact directions. They definitely have an entire British dry goods aisle, as well as other international aisles devoted to specific regions and cuisines.

I am very familiar with the Smyrna/Vinings/Marietta/Kennesaw area so feel free to email me with any questions.

Good luck,
J.
