Take it from a local, Coronado has the best local eats in town. So hop on your beach cruiser and do it like we do. We'll also show you some local shops hidden in our barrio. Let's get ready to rumble!

Shop local is sometimes easier said than done. Check out localfirstaz.org where absolutely all goods and services are guaranteed local.
