I’ll be honest with you. When I’m showing homes in South Scottsdale, one of the first things my buyers ask is, “Okay, but where do we grab a quick bite around here?” Not the special occasion steakhouse. The easy, everyday spot you walk or bike to on a Tuesday night.
So when I read that Cheba Hut “Toasted” Subs is opening a brand new shop at 2200 N. Scottsdale Road on Monday, October 26, I smiled. This is exactly the kind of local addition that makes a neighborhood feel lived in, and it says a lot about where South Scottsdale is headed.

What’s Opening on Scottsdale Road

If you haven’t been to a Cheba Hut, here’s the quick version. It’s a laid back, counter culture sandwich shop with a big sense of humor. The menu has more than 30 toasted subs, all named after classic cannabis strains (yes, really), in three sizes: the Nug (4 inch), the Pinner (8 inch), and the Blunt (12 inch).
A few favorites you’ll see people talking about:
- White Widow: chicken, bacon, and ranch
- Kali Mist: turkey, pepper jack, and bacon, served club style
- Dank: pepperoni, salami, marinara, and melted mozzarella, basically a pizza in sub form
- Griefo: cream cheese, avocado, and fresh veggies for the vegetarians in the group
There’s also a full bar with beer, wine, and liquor, plus sides like pretzel nugs, garlic cheese bread, and Krispy Bars. According to the official opening announcement, the bar menu will rotate based on Arizona favorites and what guests ask for.

Why I Love This for South Scottsdale
Here’s the part that matters to me as a Realtor. This isn’t a big national chain dropping in from out of state. Justin and Michelle Lemos are local owners who have opened or taken over five Cheba Huts in under two years, including North Scottsdale, 101 and Shea, Paradise Valley, and Arcadia. They hire locally and promote from within, so every new shop creates real jobs and real growth for people who live here.
And they made this space feel like South Scottsdale. Artist Joshua Finley painted a mural that reimagines Old Town as an anime style scene, and the walls feature work from local creators like Aubri Swell and Basile Taylor. The art is even for sale. I love that. When businesses invest in local artists, it tells me they plan to be part of the community, not just pass through it.
We’ve seen the same energy all over this part of town, from projects like Arbor Old Town to new chef driven concepts like Boujetto. South Scottsdale keeps getting more fun, and buyers are noticing.

What Living Near This Stretch of Scottsdale Road Looks Like
If you’re thinking about buying in South Scottsdale, this location is a great example of what everyday life looks like here. From 2200 N. Scottsdale Road you’re minutes from:
- Old Town Scottsdale for dining, nightlife, galleries, and shopping
- Papago Park and the Phoenix Zoo for hiking, biking, and family weekends
- Scottsdale Stadium, home of Spring Training games every Cactus League season
- Fun local shops like The Antique Trove and Sidewalk Surfer Skate Shop
That mix is what my clients mean when they say they want a walkable, connected lifestyle without paying North Scottsdale prices. Many South Scottsdale neighborhoods offer mid century ranch homes, updated condos, and townhomes close to the action, which is why I see so many first time buyers, young professionals, and relocating families start their search here.

Scottsdale Real Estate Market Snapshot: September 2026
Great restaurants are part of the story, but I always want my buyers to know the numbers too. These figures cover Scottsdale single family homes in September 2026, from Arizona Regional MLS (ARMLS) data compiled by The Cromford Report:
Current Scottsdale MLS Statistics
- Median Sold Price: $1,149,500 (up 8.4% from $1,060,000 a year ago)
- Average Days on Market: 92 days
- List-to-Sale Price Ratio: 96.1%
- Active Inventory: 1,179 homes (down 13.6% from a year ago)
- Months of Supply: 3.3 months
Here’s my take: Scottsdale values are still climbing, but homes are taking about three months to sell and closing around 96% of list price. That gives buyers some breathing room to negotiate. South Scottsdale typically sits below the citywide median, which makes it one of the best ways to get into Scottsdale and still be close to everything. With inventory tighter than last fall, though, the best homes near Old Town don’t wait around. For the full picture, check out my 2026 Scottsdale Real Estate Market Report.
Featured Snippet: Is South Scottsdale a Good Place to Buy a Home?

The area keeps adding local restaurants and shops, like the new Cheba Hut on Scottsdale Road opening October 26, 2026, which adds to daily convenience and long term neighborhood appeal.
