The Apple Developer Center (Tantau 14) offers a unique shopping experience with a selection of limited edition, one-of-a-kind Apple merchandise that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. Visitors can find items such as hats, T-shirts, card games, carrying bags, postcards, baby clothes, and keychains in the form of AirTags. The merchandise changes frequently, and once an item is sold out, it is unlikely to be restocked. There is a wide range of prices, making it accessible to different budgets. Nearby, the Infinite Loop Apple Campus is highly recommended for visitors to Silicon Valley. This campus features a different selection of limited edition items like notebooks, pens, coffee cups, and T-shirts, all exclusive and hard to find elsewhere. Visitors are advised not to rely on finding specific items, as stock can run low, especially during holidays. The campus itself is iconic, with Steve Jobs having walked around the area, and visitors can even walk on The Infinite Loop. The Apple Park Campus is mostly restricted to employees, but the Apple Park Visitor Center is a must-see for fans. The visitor center boasts knowledgeable staff, excellent customer service, and a modern, futuristic building surrounded by a beautiful, serene environment. It features outdoor seating, a cafe, and a store, though the cafe's prices are high, and seating can be uncomfortable for long periods. The store offers unique apparel and souvenirs, and the rooftop terrace provides a view of Apple Park, although trees may block the view. Overall, both campuses offer a memorable experience for Apple enthusiasts, blending modern design, exclusive merchandise, and a connection to Apple’s history.
This is the only Apple development building that’s accessible outside the gated campus. It features the same sleek design style, and you can walk around and check it out up close.

Amazing place to meet Apple Engineers inperson. You can feel the Apple DNA in everything here. Attention to detail!

This is an interesting place, not just a typical apple store. The coffee shop is overpriced, but has a lot if options. Everything Apple is overpriced. The staff were nice and she offered me an iPad to see the interactive view of the model. I learned a lot how Apple utilizes the natural energy effectively.
