La Muntanyeta Market Centre

La Muntanyeta Market Centre, known locally as Mercat de la Muntanyeta, is the indoor municipal market on Carrer Riera Basté, 43 in Sant Boi de Llobregat, south of Barcelona. Twenty-five stalls trade Monday to Saturday from 8am, closing at 2pm on five of those days and staying open until 8pm on Fridays, which is the one day you can shop here after work rather than before lunch.

About La Muntanyeta Market Centre

This is a food market for the neighbourhood rather than a sightseeing stop. The whole trade sits under one roof, so the fish, meat and produce counters are a few steps apart and a full week's shop takes one circuit. The building is wheelchair accessible throughout, and stalls take cash, contactless cards and mobile payments. The market phone number is +34 674 293 512 if you want to check a stall's stock before making the trip.

What to buy at La Muntanyeta Market Centre

Six categories cover the stalls: fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, cheese and dairy, and bread and bakery. That is the shape of a daily shopping market, not a delicatessen, so expect the produce a Sant Boi kitchen actually gets through rather than imported specialities.

Come in the morning if the fish counters matter to you, since the 2pm close applies on every day but Friday. Friday is the one afternoon the bread, cheese and produce stalls are still trading after lunch, right through to 8pm.
