The Alcobendas Municipal Street Market is the city's biggest market overall, with around 40 outdoor stalls running every week. The product mix centres on fresh fruit, vegetables, and clothing, making it a practical stop for weekly essentials. It is the kind of market that draws steady local footfall rather than tourists.
Trastillo Sarasvati takes a different direction entirely, focusing on clothing and books. It is the only market in Alcobendas where you can browse secondhand or artisan goods outside of food, and it runs weekly as an outdoor street market.
