Rubus vestitus is a European species of brambles in the rose family, called European blackberry[2] in the United States.

It is native to Europe and naturalized along the northern Pacific Coast of the United States and Canada (British Columbia, Washington, Oregon).

[2] Rubus vestitus is a spiny shrub sometimes as much as 2 meters (80 inches) tall.

[3] Rubus vestitus is one of the most common species of bramble in the British Isles, found in most vice-counties, apart from the far North.

Its preference for neutral to slightly alkaline soils places it among a minority of European Rubus.
