The Gift Barn of Soergel Orchards

Very nice selection of gifts for any occasion a must visit when in the area or make mini vacation and visit the other venues while your here

Love this place. Love the candles, tea cups and the bungalow 360 stuff!

Wonderful!

3.5 stars. This gift shop sells merchandise such as honeys, candles, drinkware, books, children’s toys, nesting dolls, and many other types of gifts. For years, I have shopped here off and on. During my most recent visit, I selected one chocolate bar to purchase. At the checkout, my husband gave cash to the cashier, and she was supposed to give us a few dollars of change, but she did not, and she returned to reading a book. He asked for the change, she gave the few dollars to us, and she said sorry. The chocolate bar was fresh and tasted good.

A whole bunch of overpriced items you can definitely find cheaper. There was a lady standing at the front door making sure no one brought in opened beverages, which is fine. But very unwelcoming. We wanted to smell a lotion before we bought it & were hollered at to not "open the lotions." We even asked if they had one we could smell & she replied "We don't offer samples. " Just a rude vibe all over the store.

We visited this gift store today. I don’t think I have ever encountered anything like it! The one older sales lady literally came between us and just keep staring us down like we were thieves. The other older sales lady reprimanded me for picking up a bath brush and told me to put it down because it was for people to buy. To the owner of Soergel’s, you have the two rudest women working for you. I know help is hard to find but do better!

My family & I had a very strange experience at the gift barn at Soergel’s over the weekend, 5/4/2024. We love visiting Soregel’s and have frequented the Gift Barn a few times, we usually buy a birthday gift or toy for my children there. This time during our visit an employee hovered over us the entire time. She asked us to put away our food (an apple) which we were happy to do, then she proceeded to follow us up to the toy area and angrily scowl at my children and my husband and I as we looked at the toys, trying to decide what to buy. There were several, a dozen maybe printed signs that asked patrons not to “play” with the toys but my children were simply looking at the toys, they were being gentle and careful as to not break anything, they were stuffed animals so I don’t see how it would be a problem to pick them up, look at them and set them back down. The employee seemed VERY stressed by our browsing. So as to calm the situation, we decided to leave. I doubt we will ever be back again in the future as I thought it was so odd to be treated in such a way, in a toy store where children should be allowed to look around freely to decide what they want to buy. Perhaps the store shouldn’t sell toys if it is such a point of contention for the employees.

I’m sure we’ll be back to Soregel’s but I would not and will not recommend the Gift Barn to anyone I know nor will we be back again.

Some interesting gifts and trinkets, but compared to the rest of Soergel, this place was VERY unfriendly and unwelcoming. The older ladies essentially watch over your shoulder very closely as if you may break or steal something and approach it as if it’s a museum with no intent to sell anything. Even more unwelcoming to kids

The old lady was extremely rude to us upon entering. Looked like overpriced junk anyways.
