Three clusters, one walk: Cave Creek Road, Stagecoach Village, and Carefree
Most of the businesses above sit within a few blocks of each other, which makes an afternoon out easy to plan without much driving. The historic Cave Creek Road corridor, roughly 6100 to 7000 E Cave Creek Rd, is the walkable core, putting Grotto Cafe, Local Jonnys Tavern and Cafe, Roastery of Cave Creek, Wineot Wine Bistro, and Cave Creek Olive Oil Company within a few blocks of each other. Stagecoach Village and the Frontier Town cluster, both just off Cave Creek Road, add Village Coffee and Creperie, the Sonoran Arts League Gallery, and several of the gift and gallery shops in one indoor and outdoor plaza. Carefree, a few minutes further north on Cave Creek Road, has its own small downtown around Easy Street and Ho Hum Road, home to Grace Renee Gallery, the Carefree Spirits tasting room, and the Carefree Coffee Roastery.
