At this time of year you will struggle as they're out of season - unless you're willing to pay silly money in which case you can go to somewhere like Selfridges or Fortnums and get some - or here www.finefoodspecialist.co.uk/lychee-300g/

Any Asian fruit/vegetable shops or markets should sell them. I just had some few weeks ago and they was absolutely delicious! Good luck 😉

You will probably get tinned ones in Tesco or Sainsbury's.

Lychee season is January so you’ll struggle to get fresh at a decent price now. For next year, try Indian/Asian grocers. Also I find that Lidl and Asda both have them but for a very short window.

Otherwise, you could always get a tin.

They need to be big to make them worth buying. Go to a Kenyan-Indian grocers links India-Indian places don’t sell them.
