The city’s second-most visited site after the Cathedral, the “Mercado de Abastos” is a place for shopping and for admiring.

Apart from admiring its  architecture and visiting its stands featuring molluscs, fish, meat, cheeses and vegetables recently brought from the sea and the farm, visitors can also:

• Buy and immediately sample the produce in the Market’s bar

For a small percentage of the price of your shopping, the Market’s bar (Churro Manía)will cook the produce acquired in the Market while you wait, enabling you to enjoy all their freshness in situ.

• Try the famous “miniature cuisine” of Abastos 2.0

 The small “chic” restaurant housed in the stalls outside the Market features “fridge-less cuisine”: each day they choose the best fresh delicacies available in the Market to design a menu made up of delicious mini-dishes. The menu (you can also order just one mini-dish) varies each day according to the products available that day in the Market.
