When you walk in it has that mixture of smells that you know you're absolutely repulsed by and at the same time thrilled to smell. You know everything in there is fresh; the fruit is fresh, the fish is fresh, the vegetables are diverse and look just picked, and the cheese is amazing. The charcuterie is like a fantasy! This market even has plants for sale as well as flowers and a few additional outlying products. When you walk up to a stall, it's not guaranteed that you're going to get a smile or a happy, "How are you?" But it is guaranteed that you will get good service. Selling the product is the name of the game here. I fully believe that if you are ever in barcelona and you come by this market you should absolutely stop in and see what it's all about. It's one of those rare places that you will be extremely glad that you saw and you'll think about later in life even if you don't buy anything, it's worth a look.

We decided to check out this market because it was a 5-minute walk from where we were staying. It's…read morea much smaller market than Boqueria. Unlike Boqueria, there aren't that many vendors selling cooked foods/tapas/snacks. Instead, it seemed more like a place where locals did their food shopping. We picked up some strawberries, so this is a good spot to pick up some fresh fruit. There's also a supermarket downstairs. They sell flowers and plants out front, and while I definitely didn't need any flowers, it was still nice to just look at them. If you're staying nearby and want to experience some local vibes, you should check it out. Otherwise, it's probably not worth going out of your way for if you're not looking to buy groceries. Note - they're closed Sundays.

But sometimes the unnoticeable place could be the one that brings you surprise. It's a comfortable diner. The waitress was a local-friendly kind of girl, the manager lady was very nice too.

A recommended place for travellers who stay in this area.

Contents of the bagel sandwiches were first rate - good lox, cheese and various vegetable accoutrements. The Everything Bagel did indeed have everything you'd expect on it. Alas, strictly speaking, by admittedly high NYC standards, it's not exactly a bagel - more of a bagel-shaped roll. I'm no baker, but I gather that the chewy texture comes from boiling them before baking. These were good as rolls, but they wouldn't last a minute in the city so nice, they named it twice.

Good selection, fresh produce, it was a good store, decent prices. I think they must have expanded into several buildings because you'd turn a corner and then there was another 90° turn in another direction with more stuff ! It was pretty cool exploring their space. They also had one of those European flat ground escalators that could take a shopping cart up and down as the store was two levels. I didn't need any help, but there were plenty of employees, stocking shelves, etc.

Cute plate ware and themed place... but that's where it stops! Cons: The food is bland in taste. What the call pancakes are not even close. They use coriander leaves as a garnish (and I'm allergic) but nowhere on the menu does it say they use it! They had a €3,99 side dish of eggs on a baguette and honestly that was the only normal tasting item. The carrot cake SUCKS! I'm from Los Angeles, I've eaten more then my fair share... there are a few perfect places to get a good slice but those are listed in my reviews. How this place has four stars? I'm G-dsmacked !!! Oh if you need to use the restroom, on the door that actually locks, the moment you're in there to do your business, the lights turn out! Once you get the lights back on, Surprise!! There's nothing to dry your hands with! Clearly this place will lure people in for its cuteness, I'll give it that. Thank G-D we were close to our hotel, as I had to come back just to get sick!

Was very hopeful after all the five star reviews and after being referred here by their wine shop across the street for local wine flights. Turns out they don't have flights, only do full glass pours (forget 7 or 9cl), and only 3 local wines open (a cava, a white, and a red). Cashier was very slow, detached, and seemed she preferred to be somewhere else. Some items are waaay past due date. This is a food tour tourist trap. Look elsewhere is you want real local fare.

When I travel, I like spending some times just walking thru a local grocer. I had a cart and probably spent almost an hour here looking at the different types of wines, picos camperos and cheeses. I was perusing thru the deli counter and saw all types of meat and wanted to pick up some items at the counter. The lady at the counter started talking to me and I said my usual 'hola', I knew this conversation would go beyond that, so I think she started explaining the difference to me between Jamón Serrano and Jamón Ibérico. I didn't want to break the wallet so I took out my phone and used Google Translate to make sure I was getting some reasonable prices Jamón. After the store manager came out trying to figure out what I was asking, I did get what I was looking for twenty minutes later (see photo of that vacuum packed goodness!).
