This is the place to get cheap groceries and random toiletries. They've got everything from…read morepre-made salads, produce, snacks, make up, to a bakery. Not the highest quality but works if you are in a pinch. We ended up buying boxes of chocolates and cookies to bring back as gifts and later saw the same selections being sold at the airport for 2X as much.

Except for the fact there is no place to eat inside the market this is a nicely and historical one…read moreyou do not want to miss. The market has foods ranging from meat and fish to nuts and dessert. You can even find single serving paella which Valencia is so well known for. The prices are reasonable and you can make a full meal.

Very big market in the heart of Valencia. There are lots of stalls selling local products, cooked…read morefood, seafood, and souvenirs. The prices here are pretty good I saw the paella for 6 or 7€ which is pretty cheap although the food is premade and just heated up. I would recommend a visit here when spending time in Valencia.

A large, bi level, brightly lit market that was only a block away from our hotel in the Ciutat…read moreVella, Mercadona fulfilled our needs for all things basic that we needed for our room. Instant nail polish removers (without having to buy separate cotton pads!), agua, salty snacks (seaweed and almonds), fresh items like cut fruits and prepared salads. If you want to save money on breakfast or are tired of eating bread and coffee, you can buy bananas, yogurt and some charcuterie here too. Check out the chocolate aisle for cheap souvenirs to take home for co-workers. Open from 0900 - 2130 and thankfully, they don't close for siesta!

I really liked this place. I buy food souvenirs on vacation, and this place had great marcona…read morealmonds (better than Cortes Ingles, in my opinion, and they cost 2 euros less- I bought some there too)- and they had superb honey candies, and pine nuts (Spanish ones, not the crappy Chinese ones that can give you pine nut mouth)- we also bought some great salads, crackers, cookies and drinks (they had Amstel Radler- lemon, which I have tried to find all over Spain- and here it was!) So I really liked my trip here. I also love the two story design and the way the shopping carts travel on the escalator (a ramp) with you. Nice design!

I've always been fascinated by grocery stores in different countries. This Carrefour is located…read moreinside a fancy mall, and is pretty big. There is even a café, where I had an empanada. The food isn't by any means super fancy at the café, it was quite mediocre but it was cheap. Carrefour sells everything- clothes, shoes, food etc. I was quite impressed by the large selection of ham and cheese. How I wish I had a kitchen in my hotel so I could buy loads of ham, cheese, and a loaf of baguette. I ended up buying so much bottled water that I had to take a cab back to my hotel haha.
