Cute little place outside of the train station at Newkirk Plaza. I've walked by many times but today the dessert display pulled me in. They had a great variety, I ended up getting the lemon meringue tart. It wasn't too sweet and the crust was decent. While waiting to pay I realized that they also sold sandwiches and soups. I'll be sure to give it a try in the future. read more

DELICIOUS!!! This is a hidden gem, right outside Newkirk Station (B and Q trains). Every time I visit that area, I make sure to stop by. The best desserts and pastries. They have sandwiches (eg, banh Mi) and the staff works with you if you are a vegetarian. The staff are very kind. I have eaten breakfast (pasties and omelette), lunch, and desserts here. They also offer an incredible rotisserie chicken, vegetables, and salmon. The venue is pristine, and the food is of high quality, meticulously prepared with attention to detail. The prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend a stop, repeatedly. read more

Delicious food and amazing service. Such a hidden gem, but worth making the trek to Newkirk for. The coffee is wonderful and the pastries can't be beat read more

This is one of two outstanding places to eat on the Newkirk Plaza (the other is Lo Duca Pizza of course). In addition to their delicious sandwiches on fresh baked bread and nice selection of pastries, Apple Tree offers authentic donuts (as opposed to the corporate ones available at DD's across the plaza) and high quality coffee. So the next time you are going to or coming from the B/Q train, do your taste buds a favor and stop off at Apple Tree Gourmet! read more

I came by while waiting for my mother to finish her physical therapy nearby. The customer service is very kind, I decided to order the appletree egg Sammy. Freshly made, 2 eggs with turkey bacon seasoned with a light helping of salt & pepper and a slice of cheddar cheese that wasn't too much. The brioche bread the sandwich was made on was buttery and evenly balanced out the flavor of eggs, cheese and turkey bacon together. The location is pleasant to stay in and enjoy your food with a quiet subtle ambience. I would come back to this location to grab another Sammy. read more

Lots of places slap the moniker "home made cooking" on their stuff but 9 times out of 10, they are reeeely stretching that meaning. Apple Tree is the REAL THING. Everything is indeed cooked right there and with mouthwatering recipes -- everything in the display case has just come out of the oven and you better grab it before someone else does. Their rotisserie chicken is mouthwatering -- pastries are to die for. If you haven't tried this great little eatery, you absolutely need to do yourself the favor. It has already become a Midwood neighborhood legend. Their menu has rated its own magnet on my refrig. Pardon me will I go figure out how to get DoorDash to go there and get me food! read more

This place has the BEST rotisserie chicken in Brooklyn. It's better than Whole Foods, Union Market-you name it. They seem to get fresh chicken delivered daily from a farm. At first I wasn't so sure because it comes in a container and looks like what you would get at any supermarket. Boy was I wrong. It's the most succulent and tasty chicken I had since living in Sicily. Also, unlike many rotisserie chickens this one has meat on its bones and is enough for a family of 4. Once a week I get a rotisserie chicken here, along with some Balthazar French baguette bread (I toast and add Kerrygold salted butter) and some almond croissants. I make a Caesar salad at home and add the chicken. The almond croissants are for dessert. Its so amazingly delicious. The family owners are always wonderful as well. Word to the wise, get here early the rotisserie chickens go like hot cakes. read more

Menu has changed but the place is still tasty. They changed their French fry type (they're thicker, but still good). They've also begun selling good-quality bread; I tend to get the ciabatta because it's very affordable and toasts up well. Frankly, they bungled several of our items in the most recent order, and at least one salad that wasn't supposed to have quinoa had quinoa, so docking a star. But would definitely come back. read more

Best Mocha around. I used to live around the corner from Appletree and I'm really going to miss my weekly trips to treat myself here. Sandwiches were always delicious when I got them for lunch, and the omg pastries!!! Ever since Lea's shut down, this has been my go to spot (and honestlyyyy, I personally think these desserts were better. but no shade or tea for Lea either) Here's to hoping this little business continues to grow. I seriously will miss it!! read more

Just moved to neighborhood and discovered this place. The staff is very warm and friendly every time I go in. The coffee is always fresh and delicious plus the egg Sammy sandwich is amazing. The lunch box ready made meals are super affordable. Highly recommend this place! read more

Maybe I came in on an off day, but there is nothing 5 star rated about this place. I ordered a simple iced chia latte w/ almond milk. What I got was colored milk. Just disgusting. I tried to remedy the drink by asking for more chia which I got begrudgingly, that didn't help, then I asked for simple syrup which they didn't have. $8 down the drain! Never again read more

I LOVE this place. Service is always fast & friendly. They have a great variety of premade items to grab on your rush to catch the Q train or made to order items. Everything is always super fresh and tasty, and they seem to focus on healthy, nutritious lunch items (for other girlies here who wish there was a Sweetgreen in Flatbush). The pastries are always super fresh and they sell yesterday's bakes for $2 (an absolute steal). There is some very limited seating inside and it's a chill, relaxed vibe for a lunch or breakfast stop. They also have lavender syrup, which I could jump for joy about as it's been impossible to find an oat milk lavender latte around here. Their coffee is very tasty too. This place is my go-to treat. read more

Delicious sandwiches, and amazing freshly baked bread! I just hope the business survives, their phone has not been working for weeks, and their website is out of order. read more

Best place to go to all different types of food and pastries im glad they finally opened same owners of coffee z yesterday was my third time coming here and glad I did delicious food had both salmon very flavorful and seasoned right read more

The food here is DELICIOUS! I have been here a few times now and have not been disappointed once. I've tried the key lime pie (absolutely amazing), the turkey bacon BLT with herb aioli (to die for), grain bowls, croissants, and drip coffee. The prices are fair for the store and the customer, this place is seriously delicious and the serving sizes are fair. The turnkey bacon BLT is only the sandwich so there isn't a side, but I only needed half and saved the rest for later. The bread (baked in house from what I understand) was absolutely amazing. It was soft, airy, crispy, and flavorful. The owners are very kind people, this place has so much potential in this neighborhood and is already so amazing. Definitely stop by, even just for a pastry or a coffee!! read more

We really need to talk about this place - an absolute JEWEL added to the neighborhood. Let's talk food - an entire display of freshly prepared vegetables, chicken, salmon, lamb meatballs, mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, and more. Salads and sandwiches and fries all have hit the spot so far. Great lunch time stop or pick-up for a weekend brunch. Their pastry game. Been making our way through the display of key lime pies and eclaires and fresh baked pies and croissants. All have been top-notch. Bonus -- incredibly friendly staff in the kitchen and at the counter. Always happy and eager to talk about the current menu, local sourcing of their ingredients, their aspirations and plans for expansion (fully functioning bakery?), or even ideas for future catering options. Can't recommend Apple Tree highly enough. Pay them a visit! read more

I adore this place. Everything tastes wonderful. The menu selection feels like it was made for me personally. More people need to eat here so it stays open forever. Also finally a place to get an excellent baguette in the neighborhood! read more

Another great spot at Newkirk Plaza. The food is simply delectable and fresh with many organic options. Today for lunch I had the veggie lasagna and some freshly grilled asparagus. My favorite is just about everything on the menu.They also have discounted specials from the day before as a way of not wasting food. These individual containers can run you $3-$5 bucks. You can also pick your dessert from a wide assortment of tarts, cakes and cookies. This place is now my go to spot to keep me eating healthier. read more

An absolute jewel box. Recently had the truffle burger for lunch and it was luscious. The baked goods are as tasty as they are visually appealing, which says a lot because they are just lovely. Warning: there may be a dent in your pocketbook as prices are not cheap ($7 to start for most of the pastries) but as a special treat this is the place to go. read more

Awesome fresh salads and healthy dinner options! Excited about this option for healthy delivery in our neighborhood!

This place is halal and delicious. I Personally love the viet sandwiches. And the rotisserie chicken is perfectly cooked.

I ordered a pecan pie for thanksgiving and it was so good. The price was reasonable and it was delicious. When I called and in person, the staff was nice snd professional. The pastries and bread looked incredible and we will be back. Staff and customers all masked and there are plexiglass barriers to keep everyone safe. . read more

This is a great addition to the neighborhood. Excellent baguettes. Other breads and pastries really good too.

The staff members are very friendly and are good with latte art. The lattes, regular coffee, muffins, and croissants are delicious.

I love there food and they make amazing fresh breads. They have delicious coffee as well it's my new favorite place.

Absolutely delicious baked desserts and the tastiest bagel in the neighborhood. A blueberry doughnut or a buttered bagel a fresh croissants and see if yourself. Very nice people serving baked products, meals and salads that they are proud of. I'm personally real thankful to see a classy, quality gourmet store on Newkirk Plaza. Wish I could give it six stars. read more

Food is incredible! The owner and staff are very nice. Food made with love. Happy to have this place in ny neighborhood.

Hidden gem right here. if you're not frequenting this place you're truly missing out on something special. Their coffee, lunches, dinners .... omg the best burgers anywhere around this part of Brooklyn and beyond. Not to mention their unique scrum desserts. On top of all that the owners are two kind, solid human beings. I promise you'll keep coming back here... it'll become your spot. read more

Love their breads (especially the $2 mini walnut raisin bread with a crackly crust and chewy center), flan, and coffee. The service is always attentive, kind, and sincere. Great addition to the neighborhood! read more
