Queen Creek Olive Mill

Came here for the tour and thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Enjoyed even more time outdoors. Ordered lunch of the chicken pesto pasta. Yummy! The soup of the day was Italianwedding which was phenomenalThe desserts were not good. We got the tiramisu and it felt like a heap of macaroons. Also got the limoncello.. strawberry and pistachio cannolis ... meh

I saw a sign for sangria Saturdays and said sold!! Paid my Lil 25 for the flight, found me a picnic table to park and read...only to not enjoy a single solitary sample of preserves made watered down wine samplers. And....one of my cups broke trying to get it out of the holder it was in but the drinks were so ew I didn't even make a fuss. I just cleaned up my little mess and left. I didn't try any of the food so I cant speak on that. The atmosphere is cute and family friendly. I'd definitely bring the family, the nieces and nephews. Cool spot to hang with friends over a bottle of wine and pizza I think...idk. Just skip the sangria.

Beautiful setting!One of a kindHad prosciutto and grazing platterBocce was so funWhat a relaxing day

I've been here several times and always have a great experience, finally took the olive oil 101 class and let me tell you it is so worth it! You will learn so much and it only takes about 45 minutes total.Check in on yelp to get a discount!

Stopped by with a few friends and took their Olive 101 tour - $8/pp (or $12 to include a glass of prosecco). Tickets can be purchased at the register in the market area. There was a long line to enter the market but that was to order food at a separate register, not browse the market / get tour tickets. Check their website for tour times.Tour lasted about 45 min, led by Wolfgang. We learned a bit about this particular mill, the olive oil making process, how to differentiate between good/bad olive oil, how to shop for ~good~ olive oil, and finally sampled a robust olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Walked around the back of the mill to see the various citrus trees they had growing, as well as a picturesque olive grove arch.We ended up spending the rest of our time in the market area, sampling all the different olive oil and balsamic vinegar they had available (and they had PLENTY). Try mixing some oil and balsamic vinegar together to find your perfect pairing (ours was bacon oil + fig balsamic). In a separate section, they have jarred goodies from local spots (honey) and even Italy available for sample as well (peppers in oil, artichoke hearts, etc.).Market is cranking out wood-fired pizzas, sandwiches, and more. Wine available for purchase (I believe there's a corkage fee), and other fun alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. "Spa" section selling olive-based products, as well as a coffee shop for a pick-me-up. By the time we were leaving, the line for sandwiches had shifted to the gelato.Outdoor space is sizable, plenty of seating (both covered and uncovered). Reasonable distance from the PHX area to grab food and hang out for a few hours to get a change of scenery.

We love coming out here and had the opportunity recently due to a medical appointment in the area. We came for lunch and to shop on a Thursday and although they were busy, it really wasn't too crowded.I already knew which oils I wanted to purchase but had to take time to taste some of the others and actually ended up buying the roasted garlic one. I also purchased the Meyer Lemon and their Robust EVOO. For lunch we had the Stromboli Pizza, the Chicken Alfredo, and we split a Caesar Salad. The salad was fresh, had the best crunchy croutons and I love their thick and creamy dressing. I typically will ask for extra dressing because I like my salad to have dressing on it and the Olive Mill adds the perfect amount so extra isn't needed. They make their pasta there on site and it is to die for! The Fettuccini noodles they use for the Alfredo were perfectly cooked with just a touch of a bit, no mush with these noodles! The chicken was sliced into thick pieces and cooked to a perfect, moist bite and the sauce...it's so good and creamy and full of lemon flavor, oh...and cheesy. The addition of the pistachios gives the dish a bit of texture and just add another element to the flavor overall. One of their best dishes in my opinion! Wife had the Stromboli Pizza, a first for us. It was huge! Easy four servings with this! She ate half and the other half came home with us! The meats they use include a spicy capicola so it does have a tangy bite to the overall dish. We loved that the filling was plentiful and the crust they use to enfold everything is perfectly cooked with just a bit of char to add that umami to the dish! She loved it! They offer tours and you have cater events here. There was a holiday party being held with a mighty buffet of lots of great foods. Everyone in that party was happy!

This could be the place for me to satisfy a craving for chewy and crispy pizza! The toppings tasted fresh. The tomato sauce was not too acidy. And to tell you how good it truly is, I was more than pleased with just eating the crust that my son shared with me ha ha ha. The wait for the other non-pizza items, though, was unfortunately too long, a little over an hour. We ordered simple sandwiches, which I did not ever expect to take very long to make. Granted there was a crowd of people who came on Black Friday, so I'm guessing that the owners had not expected quite a turn out for the year's biggest shopping day. Ambiance-wise, you can't get any better than being outdoors, surrounded by olive trees. The weather was in the 70s. This place must be made even more beautiful especially in the evening, seeing as how the trees have small lights wrapped around the trunks.

I had an absolutely fabulous experience at Queen Creek Olive Mill and can't wait to return! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed with the welcoming atmosphere and the beautiful setting. I highly recommend taking the tour--it's informative and enjoyable. Even as someone who has traveled all over the world, I learned so many new and interesting facts about olive oil that I never knew before. It's amazing to walk away from the tour feeling excited to share all this newfound knowledge and, of course, their incredible products with family and friends.The quality of their olive oils and balsamic vinegars is outstanding. You can really taste the difference in their products compared to what you might find at your local grocery store. Plus, the food and drinks at the mill are great, and it's a fantastic place to sit outside, relax, and take in the beautiful views of the surrounding area. Whether you're there for the tour, to shop, or simply to enjoy the atmosphere, it's a perfect spot to spend some time.With the holidays coming up, this is the perfect place to find unique gifts for friends and family. The shop offers a wide variety of products, and the best part is they ship! No matter the size of your order, shipping is a flat rate, which I really appreciate--it makes ordering even more convenient. (Not pictured are the $400 worth of items I bought for myself and as gifts--everything is reasonably priced and absolutely worth it!)Queen Creek Olive Mill is a family-owned business, and you can really feel the care and passion they put into their products and their visitors. It's truly a hidden gem, and I believe everyone should visit at least once. From now on, this will be my go-to place for olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I highly recommend it--this experience was well worth it, and I'll definitely be back for more!

During my second visit to Olive Mill, I was dissapointed in the service. The employees were not friendly and seemed annoyed at us for not knowing things. For example, when I ordered a sangria the employee said they were out (in a rude manner), as if I was suppose to know they were out?! We waited a long time for the food to come out, although it didn't seem crowded. They finally paged us for our food, but the garlic parmesan fries weren't ready. At this point we were hungry, so we took the rest of the food back to the table (inside, super close to the food pickup counter) and they said they would page us when the fries were ready. At this point we were already eating our other food, could they not bring it to us? I understand they don't operate like a typical sit-down restaurant but they messed up by not having it all ready at the same time, it would have been a nice gesture.After starting to eat, my mom went up to the counter to order a second glass of wine (30 minutes prior to closing) and the young employee told her the bar may already be closed, but then was able to pour my mom a glass of wine. There was also an employee on a break who chose to sit behind us and was talking extremely loud on the phone.I hate to complain like this, I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit here, but was dissapointed during my second visit. No matter how good an establishments' food is, the customer service matters. And to me it seems like the Olive Mill has poor management/employee training and customer service.

I have been visiting QCOM since they opened in 2005. It's amazing how they've grown. Their EVOO 101 tour is really nice. Live their Bistro and the food is really good. I order from them a lot and ship items home. I always receive my items perfectly shipped. They give back, have their own garden, I can't say enough about this establishment. Love their cookbook & recipe cards as well. Suggestion: when you use ship, send appropriate recipe cards as a little added value. Thanks for what you do
