Kings Cross British Shop

Staff are always friendly and helpful. Asked for a bigger filet of salmon than what they had out and it was no problem at all to have one packaged up in a couple minutes.

Their newest location at Fowlers Corners is lovely. Meat Pies, Fern Tarts, Victoria Sponge, Empire Cookies, Sausage Rolls - all delicious! Welcome to the community, Kings Cross! I'm sure to be a regular.

The minute you walk through the doors of this bakery/retail store, you would swear you were in Britain - from the fantastic sausage rolls to the heavenly Victorian cakes to the crisps and cookies you can only get in Britain, this shop has it all. And to top it all off, the people who work there are truly lovely and promote the total ‘British” experience.

There are British stores closer to me than Kings Cross (and I usually just order online anyway), but I recently visited the Oshawa location and the bakery alone makes it worth a visit. It's not easy to find good meat pies and sausage rolls around here, but it is IMPOSSIBLE to find a proper UK-style jam doughnut (believe me, I've looked). Kings Cross has all three, so if that brings you as much joy as it does me, I highly recommend checking it out.

We drove half an hour just to visit this place and what we discovered is a small shop with a huge heart! Each shelf has a huge selection of all different snacks, treats and sweets. There's bread, cookies and scones galore and a huge pile of gorgeous mini meat pies. The staff are warm and friendly and made us feel very welcome. We will definitely make the drive again to visit this little gem.
