British Depot of Oakland Park was born from a simple yet passionate mission: to bridge the distance between the United Kingdom and Florida by bringing the most authentic and beloved British groceries right to your community. We believe that food is the ultimate connection to heritage, and our curated selection serves as a nostalgic pantry for expats and a discovery portal for local food lovers alike.
Serving our community since 2018, we have grown into Oakland Park’s trusted destination for everything from artisanal tea blends to classic confectionery and savory pantry staples. Our commitment goes beyond just stocking shelves; we are dedicated to providing a culturally expert shopping experience that honors the traditions and high standards of British culinary excellence.
Whether you are looking for the comfort of a childhood biscuit or the essential ingredients for a proper Sunday roast, our aisles are filled with the flavors of home. We invite you to explore our wide variety of UK favorites and experience the warmth of a community store that treats every customer with exceptional British hospitality.
I was there at Christmas Elaine is so nice and friendly and so helpful. I live in west miramar so its a bit of a drive. Her store has so much great stuff in it so much more that the other british stores out here. So I will be calling her to see of they have any motr pouch pies which are delicious so much better than you get in the supermarkets. She even gave me her telephone number and told me anytime I want to know if she has something in her store just to ring her so I found that very helpful. Thank you Elaine for being so helpful.
I want to thank you so much for your customer service. It’s Christmas Eve and you was willing to stay open an extra 30 minutes just for me that ment to world to me. Luckily I was able to get to you on time but I just want you to know just offering me that level of hospitality really made my Christmas. Have a blessed holidays
Very well stocked store carrying an abundance of British teas, treats, some meats, among other things! High quality items and a friendly owner that knows her regular customers by name. Items do not have prices on them but what I purchased seemed fairly priced. Thank you Eileen!
Love Elaine at British Depot. Always the Best selections of all my favorite foods and snacks. Been coming here for years and will continue to as this is The Best of British and Irish goods store around.
A wonderful British experience as if though you were in England itself! I met Heidi who was a wonderful store clerk. She explained the history of this authentic store which, should be recognized as a historical place in Ft Lauderdale but its amazing memorabilia, food, trivia, photos, eclectic items. What caught my attention was that historic English cab that sits right out front in the parking lot. You can’t miss it! I recommend everyone to come, place a visit and meet the Royal family as if they were really there! Cheers!
