We Anglophiles are both easy and hard to buy Christmas gifts for. You know what we want (English stuff) and where to get it (England). But, there are often significant shipping frees to cross the pond and, if you (somehow?) aren't an Anglophile, you may now even know what to actually buy, where to find the things you do want to buy, or how long they'll all take to get over here to the colonies!
Never fear - I've collected a list of the greatest gifts for the Anglophile in your life, most of which are available from U.S. sellers, cutting out the huge shipping fees. A pro tip re: shipping fees: if you do have your heart set on getting something from the U.K., see if they offer free shipping over a certain amount - you can probably find something to buy for other people on your list from the same shop and not have to worry about shipping! A win/win! OK, here we go! Christmas gift ideas for Anglophiles! Love it? Pin it!
Christmas gifts for Anglophiles: Royal Family Merch
Well, Anglophiles certainly do love a good piece of British Royal Family merchandise!
Fortnum & Mason has the most stunning plates and mugs to commemorate the most significant royal event of the year - birth of Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor in May, 2019. In other Royal Family dining supplies, my "favourite" hotel in the world, The Goring, has premiered a gorgeous commemorative mug, which is a great souvenirs for fans of the hotel where The Duchess of Cambridge spent her last night as Kate Middleton! For more on the hotel, check out the full post. Christmas gifts for Anglophiles:

Christmas gifts for Anglophiles: Portmeirion galore
A mainstay in English home supplies, Portmeirion, the gorgeous floral you've definitely seen in a Midsomer Murders episode, fits well in any home. I love the plates - and the mugs are perfect and cozy for endless tea.
Christmas gifts for Anglophiles: Jo Malone
If you want to use the same home-scenting supplies as The Duchess of Cambridge, look no further than Jo Malone, famed formerly Kent-based, scented candle, perfume, and soap brand.
Christmas gifts for Anglophiles:
Cozy, English murder mysteries
There's nothing like a good book - and there's a certain type we're all about! I've collected a list of my favorites on Audible (and if you want to just go ahead and get them an Audible subscription, that works too!).
If it's books you're after, look no further than JK Rowling's CB Strike series, written under her Robert Galbraith pseudonym. Fairly easy reading, with a mix of astute observation, good writing, captivating mysteries, and a will-they-won't-they vibe, all set against a background of the hustle and bustle of London, it's perfect post-Christmas read for any Anglophile!
Christmas gifts for Anglophiles: Pub glassware
Any Anglophile really just wants to be snuggled up in a pub, downing a few pints of London Pride, whatever they may say to the contrary. So while you may not be able to turn your house into a pub, you can get halfway there with the right glassware! Whole Foods has been selling Sam Smith's lately (a lovely, English brew), so why not combine the two for the perfect gift for those of age on your shopping list?

This is such a fun list! I love love love buying boozy glassware. Those beer steins are calling to me, and now I might have to ask my mom for some for Xmas. My cabinets are so dang full. I also love English tea and picked up a ton when I was in London years ago. Sadly, an ex-boyfriend got it when we broke up. I doubt he appreciated it as much as me. WHAAAAA!!!! HP gifts are ALL the rage.

Aww me too!! I am obsessed with glassware - and mugs- so we had to start slowly moving some of my mugs into another cabinet (but I still rotate them through quite often)! And it sounds like someone needs to order more tea!! xx
