Maison Bramble House

I’ve known Diane and Bramble House from it’s infancy. From a hodgepodge of goods and trinkets to a well-​oiled retail store. If you have a hankering for everything that is U.K., Bramble House has got it. If you can’t find it, Bramble House will. Highly recommend a visit to Bramble House, even if you are not from the U.K. You won’t walk out empty-​handed!

Pretty much the only place that I trust to get quality British imports at a solid price. A staple landmark in Valois for over a decade, I make a point to stop by when ever I’m in the area.
Make sure to stop by this place.

My British friend was having a hankering for a Twirl Bar, Wispa, some Marmite and some Walker’s crisps. If you don’t have a clue what I am saying then, you should check out this store. It has all the British food imports, including traditional shortbread, Hob Nobs, Jacobson’s Crackers, Ribena, Vegemite, McVities, Quality Street Sweets and a large selection of English favourites.
It seems that Brambles is more than just a food stop though, there are gifts, teapots, hand lotion, soaps and kids toys too. It was here that I learned about the mincemeat pie, and how it’s a dessert (with meat??), and how marshmallow is not the same here vs England, as well as got my first taste of the Twirl and Wispa bars. The only thing that could have made my friend’s day? She’s missing English style yogurt in a big way.
Prices are moderate here, but it is to be expected, after all they are imports. I would have given this place a perfect score, as it did have many British items, but the disappointment in not seeing Penguins, well, let’s face it, you can’t get a perfect score without these.
PS Odd collectors of interesting tins, There is a tin of cookies that is in the shape of an old antique vehicle.
PPS. Faking an english accent at the cash, does not get you a discount.
