The Bran Tub in Malvern Hills

I’ve been a customer of The Bran Tub for over twenty years, but know that the very knowledgeable owner, Tanya, has run a health shop in Malvern for over 40 years. She never fails to give me excellent advice, and I appreciate her taking time from running her very busy and popular shop to always come up with the right product to help me. Her prices are very reasonable, and that’s a bonus especially in the current economic climate. Her staff are always friendly and efficient, especially Catherine. Maggie Tucker (Malvern).

Best health food shop around full of lots of fresh items and cruelty free beauty products. Everyone very helpful even when you can’t find what you’re looking for. I wanted a different hummus and it was ordered specifically even though not their normal stock. So much better than buying on line and hopefully helping to support a local business.

This is a real Aladdin's cave of food that is healthy and nutritious as well as ideal for those with dietary requirements and allergies. Tanya is so knowledgeable and can help guide you towards foos thta are suitable for your needs and offer advice. Always good prices and the choclate gluten free tarts are to die for!

a place of Wonderful products and friendly service. Sweets availiable but vegan. Fun foods for every one.

We visited this shop a few days ago and are so pleased we found it. The owner was so knowledgeable and friendly. We had lots of questions regarding bread making and all the different teas and she was fantastic. I thoroughly recommend visiting.

First class health food shop where the owner is knowledgeable and can give sound advice when needed. Wonderful shelf of large variety of dried herbs and very good quality flour for breadmaking. Also sell healthy shampoo and beauty products.

They have an excellent variety of wholesome foods, beauty, home products, tears, herbs, spices, vegan , vegetarian etc Highly reccommend . Well stocked and will get things in .

The Bran Tub is a wholefood shop and stocks lots of unusual goodies. The Lady (not sure if Owner or Manager) is very knowledgeable and helpful. I love visiting this shop and always come away with more than I went there for :)

La bañera tiene un particular Bran, aroma indefinido que me lleva de vuelta a cuando mis padres utilizar para vivir en Malvern y sin ir a la ciudad y encontrar yo invariablemente entre los rebuscando increíble variedad de especias y otras golosinas. Supongo que es una tienda de comida saludable, pero lo que hace que suene muy digno y aburrido, que sin duda no es. Es un gran lugar para abastecerse en la tienda y mejorar su núcleo de plantas aromaticas, legumbres, pastas para untar y mucho más además.

Fabulous fresh vegan choices including cheeses, cakes, and milks. frozen products include ice creams, sausages, sausage rolls and cakes

Fantastic range available for everyone including vegans, they are happy to order anything that you need, but shop is always well stocked. Worth travelling for.

So much better than trawling the internet or searching the supermarkets - the range if products and level of knowledge and advice from the owner would not be found elsewhere! Well worth a visit.

Si te encanta mezcla de Bombay, ir aquí! También puede solicitar sin cacahuetes, etc. . si lo desea, no soy alérgico a ellos, simplemente no me gustan. La gran variedad de productos sin gluten para las personas que son intolerantes, no soy pero sólo para información, satisface a todo tipo de alergias, incluso venden galletas gratis adairy que están muy bien!

Aunque es verdad que para la salud desea es ir a la tienda, sin duda me hubiera gustado que no lo estaba.

Museli very good, if a little pricey now. Great range of spices - much better than supermarket-bought. Wouldn't go anywere else for these things.

Good shop - lots of different things - and manage to get some nice apple sos mix for my veggie rolls at xmas - great

The Bran Tub is a must-visit place for any tourist. It is an education just shopping here, as the range of genuine, decent, organic and non-GMO produce is amazing. We have just, having read the book 'Wheat Belly' decided to eliminate wheat from our diet. Come here to do it! And even if you are not over anxious about what you eat, every taste is catered for, and the prices are good too. The owner Tania specialises in allergies and gives great advice. A brilliant shop, and if you care about your health, a real alternative to elitist or mainstream supermarkets.

A veritable cornucopia of ingredients which outside of the capital are often difficult to obtain can be found nestling in an unimposing shop on the Worcester Road, Great Malvern. Teas, vinegars, spices, pastas, flours jostle alongside nuts, grains, dried herbs and all manner of organic produce on shelves bowed by the choice. All sized packets, many often packed by the shop, are available and much much more can be ordered, including bulk purchases. The staff are very knowledgible and are equally well informed about medical problems and allergies and are happy to chat with you about your own conditions suggesting but never pressing any solutions. Not expensive in the slightest and also a hive of information about local activities and organisations. Don't visit Malvern without a visit.

They have allergy food specialities you definitely won't get in any supermarket, including Waitrose. As an Acupuncturist+Shiatsu practitioner I send many of my patients there for foods recommended for their health, not available elsewhere. Tania, the owner has a wealth of knowledge, and is always happy to talk about what can help for ailments.

Well stocked with organic and diet food for all kinds ofintolerances. Gluten free foods well supplied. Lovely bakery products. Long established business doing the right things.

well i love this shop and have done for years and years. but i think the owner is either shy, proud or doesn't like me much.. thats how i feel. She is a BRILLIANT food specialist as i like to think i am too. I m a therapist.and i really feel she would be better if she could learn from her staff who are more gentle and happy with me when I visit. I don't wish to be rude but i feel unliked by her. praps i am!! but i love how she built the shop and how she stocks it. so i have to go back over and over … it is more convenient to get to than the only other one in town ….

I've lived in Malvern for just over 2 years now and since discovering The Bran Tub I feel as though the range of foods that I eat as a vegan have expanded.The shop stocks a cast range of veggie and vegan products as well as gluten free etc and I would say if they don't stock it then it probably doesn't exist.The staff are helpful and friendly as well as very knowledgeable.My only complaint is more of a wish really, that is that it was open for longer hours as I often drive past in the morning on the way to work or in the evening on the way back again - around 9.15am and 5.15pm and would always have stopped in as there's always something I need, but it opens 10-5! This means I have to go out in my lunch break and find parking etc which I often don't have the time to do.

this is an extremely useful and well managed shop selling almost anything anyone who wants to buy and eat real (especially vegetarian and vegan) foods could wish for. Prices are also very reasonable and staff very friendly and helpful.

Privately owned and run this excellent shop wholefood shop offers good value and well informed service especially on dietary issues
