Bisbrooke is a village in the county of Rutland in the East Midlands of England. It is located about two miles east of Uppingham. In 2001 it had a population of 219.

In the 1950s “small-holdings, orchards and vegetable patches jostle each other in the sheltered hollows of Bisbrooke” where “almost everyone grows and sells strawberries”; much of the fruit was sent for jam-making.

The village was too unremarkable to warrant an entry in Arthur Mee's The King's England volume.
