graber olive house

Lovely people, charming place. Not much to it, though. Perhaps the tour is more compelling during harvest season, when the machinery is actually running! But a lovely glimpse into a bygone era, and a fun 30 minutes if you happen to be close by.

This was a nice history lesson in olive oil pressing. I found out on tv that this place was haunted, but I didn't see or feel anything. I would definitely buy the olive oil, very tasty.

This was a fun stop. We didn't have time to tour the entire facility and were just a bit disappointed to learn that all plants are not at this location. What we did see was great! The ladies in the gift shop were super patient and wrapped all our purchases very well in bubble wrap to take back on the plane! Sampled olive oil, olives and candies while shopping. Recommend this for a short but sweet stop.

An interesting little museum and the best place to buy the best dollars we buy it by the case a hidden gem in Ontario be sure and visit

This is the place to visit for great olives, gifts, and especially hospitality--you will come away happier, just for talking with the charming ladies who operate the shops and tours.Been visiting for over 30 years, and it's always been a family-run business integral to Ontario. Original founders built much of the city.

We always take out of town guests to the Graber Olive House, a small company that produces the unique Graber olives. The tour is very interesting, and the gift shop offers samples of many of their products. We serve the Graber size 16 olives at special occasions, and they are consistently a hit with guests, most of whom did not know of this type of olive.

This place was perfect to take my 2 teens to after school. Ive been struggling to find something other to do then our usual restaurant or shopping. It didnt look like much from the street but once you walk in you are immediately consumed by the charm. Beautiful gift shop with tons of things to look at and samples. Olives are actually the best ive tasted. Loved seeing the original equipment still being used today. Our tour guide was patient with all my questions and led us on a great little journey through the life there was and is. A must see especially if you live locally. Thanks Graber!

At home we really like Graber Olive, so we decided to pay a visit to their home site. And this place didn't fail me! It was such an amazing experience to see the produce line and the making process with my own two eyes! Our guide was also a great help, he had a wide knowledge about the plant, the olive oil history and its effect on our health.

If you LOVE olives, and want to go back in time... this is the place. It is a wonderful gift shop. old school feel (even the sales tickets are still written by hand), and tons of gifts and food items.

Graber Olives have been in business for years; and my late Mother-in-law always brought them for our Thanksgiving dinner; but I had never visited the home site before. It was fascinating to see them sorting olives by size in equipment designed by the original owner. Our guide even knew family members and had been associated with them and the business for years. We observed the entire process from sorting to canning and learned a new respect for such excellent olives and the people who bring them to our tables. Graber's makes the best! If one is interested in a little California culinary history, this is a great place to visit and learn something new.

I do not like canned olives - but now, after tasting a real one, I'm an olive snob! The history of the plant, the old equipment still running, the teenagers canning on the weekends, just a great family business! I"m a fan!

this place has been in business for years to many to count.there olives ate the best.it is a fun place to go to.you can' believe how clean the place is.people are nice and will take you on tour of place.

Very pleasant and informative visit. Learn all about olive canning process and shop on 2 fun specialty stores. Kids enjoyed it, too.

This small olive item product producing plant had a very short, but delightful tour and amazing items to purchase. The olive oil is fantastic!

Visited there today. Very interesting had the free tour and learned the basics on how the process such a great olive. The have been in the same place for over 100 years and are still using their equipment from the 1950's to 1930's? This is a special place, tasting the product is available also. The business is the oldest in Ontario, Ca and is located in a older residential area. Spend the time, worth the effort.
