Supplies might be reduced at the moment, as betel leaves can't be imported from one of the main growing areas, Bangladesh: https://www.food.gov.uk/business-industry/imports/banned_restricted/import-betel-leaves However you should still be able to find betel leaves in some Asian grocers.

However you should still be able to find betel leaves in some Asian grocers. The easiest way to check would be make a few phone calls around your area. (Yellow Pages to the rescue!).

Of course, Southall is the best place in London to find Asian foods:

Once you've got hold of your betel leaves, they're said to have certain interesting properties . . .
