Visiting this market is one of the best ways to experience Barcelona's food culture. Just off La…read moreRambla, this historic market is filled with colorful stalls selling fresh fruit, seafood, cured meats, cheeses, pastries, spices, chocolates, and local specialties. The atmosphere is lively and the energetic. We really enjoyed wandering through the market and sampling different foods while watching the local vendors at work. There are also several small restaurants and counter-style eateries where you can enjoy freshly prepared seafood, tapas, and traditional Catalan dishes. If you want a quieter experience, it's worth arriving earlier in the day before the crowds build up.

We walked over ready to try a bunch of food and were greeted with extreme crowds. We decided to proceed anyway as we heard it was a must when visiting the city.

I come here almost daily just to pick up ingredients for a fresh meal. They have it all: fresh seafood stalls, meat butchers, jamon stalls, chicken stands, egg stands, cheese stalls, bacalao stalls, beans, fruits, and veggies... Prices are great and the fresh options you need will be endless! Come in the morning as not all the vendors re-open after siesta. Not alot of English is spoken here so come prepared with your google translation. LOL!
