Picking up Irish goodies

The Brigadier

I wanted to pick up a few things for my wife. She has a thing for Chocolate Kimberly and I quite like the ordinary ones.

Does anyone know anywhere I can pick those up that doesn't charge an arm and a leg? I have seen a few websites selling things but when you add postage and packing it is probably cheaper to get someone to post from Ireland.

I think some supermarkets carry Irish produce.

That is up in Harrow so too far for me.

We live in Brighton but when we go to London we do central only.

There's at least one shop on Kilburn High Road (In & Out, opposite The State building) and one out in Willesden (Mandys, I think) that carry a decent selection of Irish goodies, and I've heard mutterings that some of the supermarkets have Irish sections though from what I've seen it's more geared towards stuff like Clonakilty pudding than confectionery.

TBH you'll only find these kind of shops in areas that still have a reasonably strong Irish presence so I'd say there's not a hope of finding it in Zone 1.

Anywhere maybe then in the Croydon area?

Have a look in ASDA, the one near me has a selection of irish foods like biscuts and tayto in the world food aisle... Or if you have a sweet tooth my friend at home has a website www.pennyjellies.com that do all sorts of goodies, especially retro sweets and teats we enjoyed as kids!!

Most decent sized ASDA's will stock Mi-Wadi, Club, kimberly biscuts etc etc The one in Park Royal has a decent section. There's also the Irish Meat Market in Harlesden which stocks [other then meat] a selection of Irish products including Chef Ketchup which is the biggest pain to find.

The big Asda in Hollingbury in Brighton has an Irish section and sells Choc Kimberley biscuits. Also, the Cheese shop near platforms 15-18 in Victoria sell Club Orange and N Irish Taytos
