The desoto central market building at Roosevelt and Central Avenue will reopen on April 11 as a market and dining hub. It will include several restaurants, a coffee shop, a produce market, bar and meeting space.

The new concept aims to hark back to a time when daily markets were the heart of every city. With community events and pop-up markets, it’s dedicated to providing a place where downtown workers and dwellers can gather.

Desoto Central Market

This burger bar serves fancy egg burgers for breakfast and a wide range of artisan burgers at lunch and dinner. It also offers craft cocktails, local beers and wine on draft.

The stall walls have made from terra-cotta Art Deco panels salvaged from the Luhrs Building in downtown Phoenix. Specialty coffee and tea have served alongside pastries and toasts, which can topped with avocado, smoked bacon or crushed banana.

The bar also has a raw oyster bar where diners can snag a spot at the 10-seat counter to order ceviche or poke. Yard bird + the larder will feature southern and New American favorites from chef Stephen Jones (formerly of Blue Hound Kitchen & Cocktails).

Tea & Toast Co.

In a nutshell, they offer a smorgasbord of fine crafted delicacies to delight the palate, while ensuring that their customers aren’t subjected to the incessant crowding associated with big box retail. The company aficionados have also known for top-notch service. In fact, the hive has the envy of their rivals, and you can count on them to treat you like royalty.

Walrus & The Pearl

The Wise Walrus Dinners, where guests can ask Chef Jones questions and learn his cooking wisdom, have held once a month in an intimate setting.

The koi fish is carved from fossilized walrus ivory, which has lain in the earth for centuries and has gathered a creamy cream coloring. Native Alaskans use this rare material in their jewelry, art and artisan crafts.
