Markets in Madrid

Mercado de San Miguel is a beautifully restored early 20th-century iron-and-glass market hall just steps from Plaza Mayor. Once a traditional neighbourhood market, it has been reinvented as a gourmet food hall showcasing the best of Spanish gastronomy.

The Mercado de Maravillas is Europe's largest municipal market by number of stalls, a vast multi-floor marketplace where working-class Madrid buys its daily food. It is completely untouched by tourism.

Tucked in the heart of La Latina, Mercado de la Cebada is an authentic working-class food market where locals shop for daily provisions—a vibrant antidote to the touristy Mercado de San Miguel.
