Essentials about the Market of San Miguel in brief
If you want to immerse yourself in the world of Spanish cuisine, you can’t miss a visit to the Mercado de San Miguel (Saint Michael’s Market). Located in the heart of Madrid, right next to the Plaza Mayor, the beautiful cast-iron market hall was converted into Madrid’s first gastro market in 2009 and is now one of the most important gastronomic institutions in the Spanish capital. Every year, more than ten million guests come to enjoy tapas, ham and chorizo, cheese and olives, oysters and prawns with a glass of beer, wine or champagne in this culinary temple.
The offer on the Market of San Miguel
The Market of San Miguel consists of over 30 stalls offering the best specialties from all over Spain. The offer reflects the culinary diversity of the Spanish regions and makes visitors’ mouths water. From Iberian ham and chorizo to Galician oysters and seafood, Mediterranean rice dishes, tortillas and special cheeses from Asturias, Castile and the Basque Country, the Market of San Miguel serves up everything that makes Spanish cuisine so good and so popular around the world. If you want to try your hand at Spanish delicacies at home, you can stock up on Spanish cookbooks in the market’s bookstore. And even high-quality tableware and kitchen accessories from Spain can be purchased at the market.
