The Apple Tree Gift Shop And Teahouse
About
Nestled in the picturesque village of Ockbrook, The Apple Tree Gift Shop & Teahouse is a charming oasis that blends a cosy teahouse with a thoughtfully curated gift shop. From enticing breakfasts and brunches to leisurely lunches and traditional cream teas, the menu showcases locally sourced ingredients and homemade specialities such as Belgian waffles, excellent coffee blends, and indulgent milkshakes. The already established rustic underground barn offers a warm, open‑air dining experience with a log burner and overhead heater, making it a favourite of walkers, cyclists, and dog owners. Inside, the teahouse’s intimate décor creates a relaxed setting for afternoon tea (£25 per person) and Prosecco‑infused variants, while the gift shop showcases handmade jewellery, homeware, cards, and unique gifts from around the world. The venue—accessible by foot or car and offering free Wi‑Fi and pet‑friendly outdoor seating—serves as a delightful stop for food lovers, shopaholics, and those seeking a gentle day out in Derbyshire.
