No matter where we are in the world we all miss Britain occasionally. Here are the top five things that Brits miss most about home.

Pubs

We don’t mean “bars” either - we mean pubs. Good old fashioned pubs where you can ask for a nice pint of bitter and have a chat with your mates around the fireplace in winter. Even better are the pubs that serve Sunday Lunch, which leads us to…

Roast Dinner

We know that there are a number of fantastic and exotic restaurants throughout the rest of the world, but no matter where you are, there is still a craving for a good traditional home-made roast dinner. We want home-made Yorkshire puddings with stuffing and gravy please.

Decent cup of tea

My kingdom for a decent cup of tea! While there are an array of herbal tea’s available abroad, nothing quite beats a lovely British cuppa. We’re still looking for the perfect cup of tea abroad, so if you know of any places then leave why not leave a review of that special place so our other expats can enjoy a taste of home.

Fish ‘n Chips

Although there are some great seafood restaurants out there we miss our Fish n’ Chips. We want big chunky chips instead of fries and battered cod instead of lightly cooked monkfish. We also want it served in newspaper wrapper with lashings of salt and vinegar.

Family

Sometimes we’re lucky enough to make some good friends and meet some interesting people where we are. That doesn’t mean that we don’t miss our family though – especially around Christmas.
