The Mercat de Sant Andreu is one of the neighbourhood’s main social and commercial centres. Since 1914, it has formed part of daily life in Sant Andreu de Palomar, first as an open-air market and now housed in a modernista building that brings together early 20th-century market tradition and updated facilities. The layout combines a central hall of food stalls with surrounding units dedicated to specialist products. Between counters, bars and small restaurants, shopping naturally becomes a place to meet and talk.
This is good to know
Come without a list and take your time: browse the stalls first, ask what’s in season and let the traders guide you towards what’s best that day. Here, the counter still sets the pace.
