Queen Creek Olive Mill
Queen Creek Arizona combines its farming roots with the big-city conveniences that come with suburban Phoenix.
If you are looking for something fun to do in Queen Creek AZ, consider heading out to the Queen Creek Olive Mill -- one of my favorite places in the Phoenix metro area.
The Queen Creek Olive Mill is said to be Arizona's only working olive farm and mill. It produces a hand-crafted extra virgin olive oil, using nine varieties of olives. In addition, it offers tours, casual dining and a marketplace.

Monday-Friday from 9am to 5pm

The Mill is located near the junction of Rittenhouse Rd. and Combs Rd. The address is:

The restaurant at the Queen Creek Olive Mill is named Del Piero. The Tuscan inspired eatery serves breakfast and lunch during Summer hours and the menu includes appetizers, brushettas, soups & salads, sandwiches and desserts. The recipes benefit from herbs that come from the Mill's own organic garden, as well as, their own oils, tapenades and balsamic vinegars.
