I’ve been wanting to come here ever since I read John D’s awesome review of this store last year. After celebrating my mom’s birthday at Mrs. Knott’s Chicken Dinner Restaurant this last weekend, we finally had the chance to stop by here.
This store is wonderful! Visiting here was such a great way to get into the Christmas spirit! We saw so many beautiful trees and decorations. The first thing we saw when we walked into the store was the lovely white Christmas scene. This was so beautiful that everyone in my family had to pose for a photo in front of that amazing tree and Santa.
We also saw the lighted Christmas town («Snow Village») that was so detailed and beautiful. This display had the cutest homes, stores, trees, and people. We then had to check out those great Christmas trees with the most amazing ornaments. We usually decorate with gold and ivory decorations in our home, and the were plenty of those here. This store had lots of fully decorated trees and several walls filled with lovely ornaments.
There was a candy cane tree in a sleigh, a tree with peppermint candies, and the tree with the brightly colored blue, pink, and green bulbs with snowmen ornaments. There is a lot of lovely home décor throughout the store. While most of it is Christmas themed, there was section focused on western themed items for the home. There’s even a section of the cutest Snoopy items and shelves full of beautiful snow globes.
The sales people were really friendly and helpful too. When ringing up our items, the cashier made sure to put the the snow globes back in their original boxes and wrapped the delicate ornaments carefully. While the Emporium tends to be on the expensive side, the cashier also asked if we had a Knott’s pass so we could get a discount (I think it was 10%).
They even seem to change the trees and decorations every year. Because of the great new items they get in and the staff’s wonderful customer service, I think we’ll be coming back here soon for great decorating ideas for the home and the cutest ornaments for the tree!

Christmas time is here, my favorite time of the year! Decorating the Christmas tree is a fun family tradition. The season seems to quickly disappear as suddenly as it arrives every year.
The Emporium has the Christmas spirit every day of the the year. It’s a year round Christmas store. Beautiful decorated Christmas trees are on display with several miniature model Christmas ceramic villages set up in snowy mini mountain settings. The store also has seasonal collectibles, figurines and ornaments.
Located with other gift shops and Mrs Knott’s Chicken Dinner restaurant in the California MarketPlace, outside of the Knott’s Berry Farm park entrance. 3 hours of free parking is available.
So, feel the magical Christmas spirit in July with a visit to The Emporium.
