Mercat Municipal de Sant Salvador is an indoor food market on Carrer de Francesc Macià in Vilafranca del Penedès, trading six days a week from 9am to 9pm. Its 15 stalls cover fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, cheese and bread, and it draws around 2,000 shoppers a day. The long hours make it one of the few local markets you can still shop at after work.
About Mercat Municipal de Sant Salvador
The market opened in 1983 and was comprehensively renovated in 2001, when its current layout of food stalls alongside a self-service supermarket was established, with further modernisation in 2014. It is one of two municipal markets in Vilafranca del Penedès, each serving a different part of town. On Tuesday mornings, a non-sedentary market also sets up in the same space.
What to buy at Mercat Municipal de Sant Salvador
The stalls cover the full range of daily fresh food: seasonal fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, cheese and dairy, and freshly baked bread. Payment is easier here than at an open-air market, with stalls taking cash, contactless cards and mobile payments.
Where to stay in Vilafranca del Penedès
Staying in Town Centre puts you within easy walking distance of Sant Salvador Market and the main squares. The Hotel Domo is a solid, central option that makes it simple to reach the market on foot without any fuss.
For something with more character, Hotel Can Bonastre Wine Resort sits out in the Penedès wine country, a short drive from the market.
