There's a lot of charm in The English Shop on historic Main Street in St. Charles. Owner Eileen Prichard is usually the first smiling face you'll see as you enter this shop of British foods and gifts. There is a beautiful selection of British jewelry, perfume, lotions, tea, hats, bags, vases, books and tea sets. Since the store has been around since 1984, it has a strong following of customers who crave British food. Many clients order food from the shop's website or call for a shipment of their favorite products.
