Had a very nice time visiting the museum. The staff at reception were very nice. The museum isn't big but if you read the informations and check out the displays not rushing it takes spmetime, which is very good. They have the displays nicely organised, nostalgic, taking you back in time. It's nice to see how household items and food companies looked like in the past and how old some of these companies are. The amount of board games that were around in the past is astonishing. Some of the board games especially from war times are...interesting, let's put it that way. The way how technology evolved is impressing. You will get an insight into the world of packaging from Victorian era through to the present day, not just packaging but also everyday items that we can all relate to from tins and bottles to sweets to toys, TVs and record players and everything else that comes with it. It's a worthy place to visit with friends, family and kids. There's a little souvenir shop next to te reception. The cafe offers snacks, food and nice warm drinks. The closest tube station is Ladbroke Grove, 2 minutes walk around the corner.
The Museum of Brands was a decent and surprisingly nostalgic little stop while exploring the Notting Hill area. There’s a huge collection of vintage packaging, advertisements, toys, and everyday products from different decades, so there’s always something interesting to look at as you walk through.nnWhat makes it enjoyable is seeing how branding and design have evolved over time — you end up recognising random products and packaging styles you didn’t expect to remember. It’s not a massive museum, but there’s enough variety to keep it engaging throughout the visit.nnI’d say it works best as a short side trip rather than a main destination. If you’re already heading toward Notting Hill or Portobello Road Market, it’s an easy and worthwhile stop that adds a little extra to the day without taking up too much time. Around 30 minutes to an hour is probably perfect.nnOverall, a pleasant and unique museum experience with plenty to casually browse through.
I visited the Museum of Brands, primarily to see the Thunderbirds exhibition. It was a nostalgic journey back to my childhood to see the exhibits from Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, Stingray, Fireball XL5 and much more. A truly magnificent collection of toys and memorabilia.nAfter that I went to the Time Tunnel permanent exhibition which features items from each decade from Victorian times to the present day. Again the number of exhibits was amazing, with items which denoted each time period.nThe Museum is well worth a visit and once you buy a ticket you can return as many times as you like for one year for free!
Absolutely excellent. Such a trip of pure nostalgia. You go through a time tunnel starting from the 19th century through to the noughties. We went primarily for the Thunderbirds exhibition but the whole museum is really worth a visit. Brilliant. Lovely little coffee shop on site aswell. Highly recommend. Nearest tube Ladbroke Grove , its about a 5 min walk.
Really enjoyed it, the staff were very friendly and helpful, explaining the layout and where to go. The layout was so well done, in timeline order so you can truly see the evolution of brands over time. When I went there was a Gerry Anderson exhibition, I loved it! Really nice way of presenting the toys and merchandise from the TV shows both new and old, not only seeing toys from the 60s but also the recently released models and action figures!
