This bustling market is a must visit on a trip to Barcelona. A bit hectic but the food experience here is unmatched for local seafood, meats and snacks. Vendors offer prepared dishes and to go items of their produce and raw items. Enjoy a beer or glass of wine while your food is prepared right there. Amazing selection of seafood, cured meats and many other items. Prices are probably a bit higher than finding them on their own at other spots in the city but the experience is worth the slight increase. Too much to try on one visit!

Dear foodie readers, I love imagining how things would have been when visiting places that have been around for a while. This market was established in 1856, so not only are you going to a fabulous place, there is history there as well. We have done a good food tour in the Seattle market, and let me tell you, if you have never experienced one, this may be the place to do it. Since there are so many options, the tour will usually allow you to try the best of the best. The colors, the choices, the flavors, it honestly seems endless. We went every morning while in Barcelona, I loved the spinach and cheese empanadas, my boys would get fresh fruit juices with a pastry, and the hubs a cup of coffee. They opened early, so it was a perfect stop as we walked to our tour of the day.

It was really good to walk around, had my morning juice from market for 4 morning in a row and they are delicious. Also many food outlets to enjoy with lots of variety so you can visit several times. Also can buy meat, seafood, sweets along with souvenirs. Located near the start of La Rambla and definitely on the list of things to do and see in and around Barcelona.

Great place to visit. Just make sure you’re really hungry. So much you will want to try. Grab a fruit juice and have a stroll around all the stalls. Be careful of your bags, best to have them in front of you here as it can get very busy and cramped.

This was on our must see list for visiting Barcelona. This is a 12/10. The stalls and options of food are incredible - you will want to taste everything! We had a great time walking around viewing all the different food stalls. This is a must see in Barcelona.

Amazing experience. Easily spend a few hours exploring. Literally ate and drank our way round. Make sure you go there hungry and with plenty of money to spend . Lots of experiences to try... fresh juices, fresh fruits, spanish meats and cheese, fresh fish, oysters, paella, to name just a few. It's definitely a must to visit! Is very very busy so be prepared for a crowded walk around. Closer on a Sunday.

I had visited Barcelona 3 times before but never the market. I missed out, so glad I visited this time. It’s feels like you in one your favourite food travel shows. We found a seat at Remblero what a great experience

One of the best markets I have ever seen in my life!!! I would compare it to a museum of fruit, vegetable, nuts, candy display. This is a must activity if you are in Barcelona! we tried fruits, nuts, freshly squeeze juices, baked goods, and had a wonderful lunch.

Passed through the market on a Monday afternoon for lunch. It was pretty busy as expected. Some vendors we're closed or empty. We walked through and sampled some of the different vendors. We tried jamon and manchego, empanadas, sausage and roast beef, juices, and olive skewers. Everything was good, but not the best things we ate on our trip. Would like to sit down at one of the restaurants another time. Many of the vendors had similar things, so it was hard to know which to go for.

If there is one market you visit in Barcelona for food, this is it. From fish to meats , sweet treats , amazing displays of fruit, takeaway items ( some have sit down counters attached where you can order a beer or wine ), there is something for everyone. It is closed on Sundays, so plan ahead. The later in the day it does get busier, but not to the extent you can't get to the stalls. Take some time and enjoy all that the market has to offer.
