The Best Food Markets in Marbella
Marbella and the surrounding area boasts a number of wonderful food markets. Selling the freshest fish, meats, fruit and vegetables, they are a pleasure to simply wander around as well as to shop in. Here is our selection of the best food markets in Marbella.
1. Municipal Market
Bar, Market
Marbella’s main food market is located just north of the old town and opens every day from 8am to 3pm. Its colourful stalls sell fruit and vegetables, meats, cheeses, olive oils, spices and wines; and, as is always the case in Spain, they serve as meeting points for the locals, who socialise as they shop. Take a coffee at the bar within and soak up the atmosphere.
2. San Pedro de Alcántra Market
Market, Spanish
Divina Pastora Market
Divina Pastora is a lively residential neighbourhood that lies to the east of Marbella’s Represa Park. Its market is the barrio‘s nerve centre and is just as large as the city’s principal mercado. The best time to visit is mid-morning, when the fish, meat and vegetable stores are busy with locals enjoying voluble catch-ups as they buy the weekly essentials.
