Main Street at Verrado · 5 places
Where to eat
in Verrado
If you only eat one thing downtown this week, make it the table-side chicken parm at Tempo, or a Diavola and the Super Tuscan Ciao Grazie pairs with it. Five places on one walkable street used to be the whole answer. Now there’s a second downtown block at Sunrise Market, the Fry’s centre up on Indian School, a Marketplace opening in phases out by I-10, and brisket mac and cheese at the golf club. Where to go still depends on the sun.
Nothing is open yet.
Anthem Coffee is usually the earliest open — confirm on their site. Sunset tonight is 5:42 PM.
Unofficial community guide. Hours and menus change, and the restaurant’s own page always wins. Not DMB, the Verrado Community Association or the City of Buckeye.
Main Street at Verrado
The original three-block strip at Main Street and Verrado Way. Get coffee at Anthem before it closes at 3, then come back for happy hour at Tempo. The official tenant map and store pages are at mainstreetatverrado.com.
-
Coffee & handcrafted treats
Anthem Coffee
Espresso, signature drinks and seasonal pastries from 6am, plus smoothies and shakes for the kids. It closes at 3, so think of it as a morning place. Go early, grab a pastry while they last, and walk it down Main Street.

Bistro, craft beer & live music
Tempo Urban Bistro
Start with the free house focaccia, rosemary and sea salt, and add the edible beef-tallow candle if you want a little theater. Then order the table-side Chicken Parmigiana or the Bucatini Amatriciana with guanciale and Calabrian chili. Go at happy hour: weekdays 2:30 to 5 in the dining room, 2:30 to 6 every day at the bar, with Blue Point oysters by the half dozen.

Italian pizzeria & wine bar
Ciao Grazie Pizzeria & Wine Bar
Wood-fired pizza with house-made mozzarella, and every pizza on the menu comes with a suggested wine. Get the Diavola (hot soppressata, Calabrian chilis) with the Super Tuscan they pair it with, or the Dame Edna (prosciutto, arugula) with Pinot Grigio. Start with the Calabrese bruschetta. Sandwiches are lunch only, 11 to 3.

Tacos, all day
Rosie's Taco Shop
Changing hands, check before you go: Rosie's says it's merging with Oscar's Taco Shop (same family), and its locations page still lists this Main Street store as Rosie's. Tacos all day, indoor seating and takeout.

Self-serve froyo and smoothies with a long toppings bar; patio seating when it's not blasting heat.

Sunrise Lane & Village Street · downtown's newer block
Sunrise Market
Downtown's newer block, walkable and a short golf-cart hop from Main Street. If you love food, start here: breakfast at Haymaker, coffee at DeGiNO, a fritter at BoSa, sushi at W&Z, a glass at West Rose and gelato at Bobazona, all on one row of storefronts. Coming later this fall: Neighborhood Pie and Grill (burgers, pizza, hand-breaded tenders and wings) next to WIFFY'S. Soft openings and "coming soon" signs are normal here, so check the hub or the shop before you plan a meal around one.

Breakfast through burgers & BBQ
Haymaker
Go for breakfast and order the Cowboy Platter: three eggs and a full order of meat. At lunch it's the hand-battered Southern Fried Chicken Sandwich on brioche, or the California burger with hickory bacon and avocado. Come back after dark for the bourbon bar, which has more than 50 to pick from. Opens at 7am every day and closes at 8 Sunday to Thursday, 9 on Friday and Saturday.

Coffee bar
DeGiNO Coffee Bar (DeGino)
Coffee from a family that has grown it for three generations in Nayarit, Mexico, and the name comes from their three kids. Look at your cup: every one gets a handwritten saying. It opens at 5am daily and stays open until 10pm on weekends, so it works for a late coffee too. You'll see it spelled DeGiNO and DeGino; same shop.

Donuts, coffee & smoothies
BoSa Donuts Coffee and Smoothies
Get an apple fritter. Cinnamon rolls and éclairs are in the case too, along with smoothies and boba. Open 5am to 9pm every day, so it covers the early coffee run and the after-dinner sugar run.

Asian & sushi
W&Z Asian Bistro
A sushi bar plus Chinese and Thai dishes, and Japanese bento boxes. It's the sit-down pick downtown when it can't be tacos or pizza again. Open 11 to 9 Sunday to Thursday and until 9:30 on Friday and Saturday. We haven't found a house specialty to point you to yet, so tell us what you order.

Tasting room
West Rose Tasting Room
Twelve rotating wines, local beer on tap and live musicians. You can bring your own food, so pick up dinner on the block and carry it in. Open Wednesday to Sunday, noon to 7, which makes it an afternoon-into-early-evening stop.

Bubble tea & gelato
Bobozona (Bobazona)
Boba, plus Italian gelato and sorbetto, 11am to 9pm every day. Gelato after dinner at Haymaker is the move on a warm night. The store page says Bobozona and the merchant writes Bobazona; same place.

Jackrabbit Trail & Indian School · ~3 miles north
Village Grove at Verrado
The Fry's Marketplace centre at Jackrabbit Trail and Indian School Road, about three miles north of Main Street.
Anchored by Fry's Marketplace & Fuel Center. This centre publishes no tenant directory, so each place below is meant to be checked against the business’s own location page.
-
Tacos, all day
Oscar's Taco Shop
Sister location to Rosie's on Main Street — tacos all day, typically later close than most of downtown. Confirm hours on the brand locations page.
-
Build-your-own pizza
MOD Pizza
Build-your-own pizza, long evening hours — reliable after sports or when nobody can agree.
-
Burritos & bowls
Chipotle Mexican Grill
Burritos and bowls across the street energy from the rest of the centre.
-
Modern American, bar & patio
One Story Social Dining
Modern American with bar, misted patio, happy hour, and a speakeasy-style room (Rumour Has It). Closest thing at Village Grove to a "we're going out" night without driving I-10.
Also in the centre
Café Rio, Jimmy John's, Pizza Hut, Burger King, and Yogurtini round out the quick-serve and dessert lane. Use each brand’s location finder (or Maps) for current hours — this centre’s list moves when leases do.
Verrado Way & I-10 · phased centre
Verrado Marketplace
A large shopping and dining centre at Verrado Way and I-10, opening in phases (centre messaging and press point through 2026–early 2027).
Centre overview (Open vs Announced retail): Verrado Marketplace place guide.
Food & drink is a mix of Open and Coming. The centre directory does not always say who’s trading yet — only treat a place as open when you’ve confirmed it. Check before you drive over.
Resources
- Marketplace directory — who’s listed now
- Coming to Verrado Marketplace — official announce / lifestyle news
- Phoenix New Times · Buckeye Buzz · KTAR · What Now Phoenix — press roundups (names, not hours)
Anchors
Target · Safeway · Marshalls · HomeGoods · Ross Dress for Less · Harkins Theatres
Target and Ross Dress for Less post hours on their centre tenant pages (hours may vary — confirm the day you go). The snapshot lives on the Marketplace place guide. Harkins BackLot still lists Coming Soon, including a chef-driven dining concept — not an open restaurant card. Harkins tenant page.
Food & drink
Re-check the Marketplace directory before you treat the Open list as complete. Phased centres add openings without updating every guide at once. We mark a place Open only when its own page posts hours.

Shake Shack is expected mid to late October: news reports say Oct. 15, and the West Valley Regional Chamber lists its grand opening on Tue, Oct. 20. Sourdough & Co. is already serving clam chowder in sourdough bread bowls. Everything marked Coming shows no open or closed status until the place itself posts hours.
On-community sit-down
Golf club dining
For a sit-down meal without leaving Verrado, head to The Grille (Verrado Grille) in the Founders clubhouse and order the brisket mac and cheese. It's the signature, with smoked brisket, candied jalapeños and onion strings over a three-cheese fusilli. Hours are Sunday to Thursday 8am to 8pm and Friday and Saturday 8am to 9pm, and weekday happy hour runs 2 to 5. The club also lists the Cliff House up at the Victory course, plus banquet and event space if you're planning something bigger than a weeknight dinner. Check the club site for public versus member access; we don't guess at access rules.

How we keep this current
We rebuild this page from public centre directories, merchant sites, and named press — not from delivery-app scrapes or comment threads. Prefer outbound links you can tap: Main Street, Sunrise Market, Marketplace directory, golf club, and each restaurant’s own hours page.
Things that move fast: Marketplace phase openings, Sunrise “coming soon” flips, and Village Grove suites without a published centre roster. If a listing is wrong, closed, or missing — or you know a new table that belongs here — tell us via /contact. Business trade names only; we don’t publish resident names, handles, photos, or identifiable quotes.
