Cook & Craft offers modern American and healthy food on the northeast corner of Scottsdale Road and Shea Boulevard. The restaurant’s terrace is dog-friendly, so patrons are welcome to bring their four-legged friends. A warm blue, white, and gray color scheme, crisp copper accents, roll-up windows in the patio bar area, hand-written chalkboards, black-and-white kitchen images, and the whimsically painted slogan “Locals Eatery” on one wall all help Cook & Craft welcome neighbors.

Cook & Craft provides local coffee roasters, breweries, and distilleries on their menu to support other nearby businesses. The crew looked for locally produced goods and ingredients while creating the fresh, savory, and refined menu served in the warm and welcoming 96-seat facility. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are all available on the menu. Cook & Craft provides a variety of appetizers, including sliders, chicken and cauliflower wings, deviled eggs, house-made mozzarella, and chocolate bacon. Additionally, they serve salads and soups, and some of the entrees include grilled meatloaf, barramundi, wrapped meatballs, short ribs, and filet mignon.

Craft cocktails have been thoughtfully created for a range of palates and preferences. Locally produced craft beers are included, but you’ll also discover some old favorites. Aside from the Athletic N/A, other non-alcoholic options include Sparkling Lavender Lemonade, Wild Tonic Blackberry Mint Kombucha, and Abita Draught Root Beer.
