Farmer Boys, the farm-to-table restaurant chain known for its award-winning burgers, hand-chopped salads, specialty sandwiches, and all-day breakfast, is now cooking up farm-fresh fare and delivering genuine hospitality at its second Gilbert location, located at 3309 S. Val Vista Drive.

The new restaurant is open daily from 6 a.m. to midnight, offering dine-in, drive-thru, and online ordering services, according to a press release from the company. The restaurant is owned and operated by Franchisee Omar Mawas, who plans to open additional Arizona restaurants later this year, bringing even more jobs to the community.

“As someone who has been a Farmer Boys franchisee for over 15 years, I am honored to continue growing with the Farmer Boys brand,” Mawas said in a press release. “The experience has been incredibly gratifying, and I would like to extend an invitation to the city of Gilbert to share a meal with loved ones at Farmer Boys. We are cooking up delicious food and togetherness.”

For over 40 years, Farmer Boys has been a leading farm-to-table fast casual chain, known for award-winning burgers, all-day breakfast, stacked sandwiches, hand-chopped salads, and signature hand-breaded zucchini sticks and onion rings. Fresh produce is delivered daily to each location, ensuring that every meal features high-quality ingredients and flavor. Regularly honored with “Best Of” food awards and ranked #10 in Fast Casual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers in 2025, Farmer Boys operates restaurants in California, Nevada, and Arizona.

“Arizona continues to be an important growth market for us, and we’re proud to open another location in Gilbert,” John Lucas, vice president of franchise development of Farmer Boys, said in a press release. “Omar has been a tremendous brand ambassador from day one, embodying our commitment to farm-fresh food and heartfelt hospitality. His dedication has helped us deepen our connection with the community, and we’re excited to continue growing alongside him.”
