I have used The British Corner Shop website but they are based in Britain and the cheapest shipping is about $20. I recently found Ackroyd's Bakery which is US-based but shipping is still $15. Amazon has some things but they often take a long time to arrive and are usually stale.

    Is there a website that offers British or overseas groceries without shipping that makes it too expensive to justify the cost?
    ROAD TRIP! Jungle Jims just north of Cincinnati O. I used to live up there and got LOTS of stuff from them. They have a whole UK section.

    For teas try Twinings. For a wider range Forntum and Mason.
    They both had US distributors when we were last there.
    We obtained Stilton easily. Certainly in the main cities, especially on the east coast, there should be little difficulty.
    You can get a butcher to provide suet as there is little demand for it in the USA, or else Atora is available from some places.
    Good liquor stores in major US cities will stock British ales and ciders.
