Our tour guide the previous day advised us to wait until around 10-1030 before arriving to ensure vendors were open. We heeded his advice and yet 1/3 of the stalls were either still setting up or had not yet arrived so be aware of this when visiting. The area has plenty of space for lots to walk and gather, though there isn't much space to sit down and eat. There are a plethora of food stalls, fresh juices, sweets, meats and more. We wandered up and down each aisle stopping when we saw something interesting. We tried pastries, olives, tacos, candies and flavored salts. This was a great spot to pick up gifts for people back home.

Many of the stalls inside closed up already by the time I visited, ~5pm. There's a bunch of stalls selling pretty much the same things: seafood, fried seafood, jamon, fresh fruit, fruit juices, and empanadas. We ended up trying raw oysters, 10€ for 4 & chose half salted & half unsalted. I personally preferred the unsalted one though it was brinier. I heard great things about their fresh fruit juices.

All your grocery shopping can be done here daily, (bakery, fruit, veggies, meat, fish, charcuterie etc) although not all the stalls are always open except for the main shopping days, usually Saturday and Monday. Go early to get the best selections. It's not crowded so a pleasant experience, and reasonable prices.

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!
