Mercado de San Miguel is one of Madrid’s most famous culinary landmarks, located just steps from Plaza Mayor. Housed in an elegant iron-and-glass structure dating back to 1916, the market was originally a neighborhood food market and has since been transformed into a vibrant gourmet destination.
Inside, you’ll find dozens of stalls run by local producers and renowned chefs, offering everything from Iberian ham and artisan cheeses to fresh seafood, olives, and gourmet tapas. It’s not just a place to shop, but to savor, visitors can wander from counter to counter sampling delicacies paired with Spanish wines, vermouth, or cava. The lively atmosphere, combined with its historic architecture, makes it both a culinary and cultural highlight of Madrid.
