Are your knives dulling quickly? Perhaps you're guilty of one or more of these poor habits. Gathering food with your knife – gathering chopped food to move it from the cutting board to your pan or serving dish dulls the blade of your knife. Instead, use the back of the blade or a food scraper. Using glass cutting boards – glass cutting boards are easy to clean, non-porous and won’t...
Each year we put together a list of staff picks for stocking stuffer ideas to help make your shopping (or wish list) easier. The criteria is easy; it must fit in a stocking and it must be something that we love and would be happy to find in our stocking on Christmas morning.

Christmas time is always magical at Britannia Kitchen & Home. Lots of unique and festive items make their way to our shop floor and staff has a great time helping customers select pieces for gifts or their own home.

I just thought that with all the chaos in life, some good old fashioned biscuits are a nice way to add a hot delicious bonus to any meal - a breakfast treat, a bowl of soup, chilli, or your basic meat and potatoes. For some extra fun in the kitchen, get the kids to help out and let...
Mother's Day is just around the corner, it's time to make a plan! This year, most of us won't be able to share a meal with our Mothers, or give them an in-person hug. We'll save that for when it's safe. You're still able to choose a thoughtful gift, it just requires a bit more of a plan to coordinate it. There are several easy options for shopping our store:...
I'm seeing so many people trying out new recipes. I'm loving seeing all of your photos and reading about your experiences on social media. There is also a group of people that are busier than they ever were; home schooling children, working in essential services or trying to keep their businesses afloat.
