The Algete Municipal Street Market is the larger of the two, with around 25 stalls selling fresh fruit, vegetables and clothing. It runs weekly and is the main spot locals head to for affordable produce and everyday goods. Cash is the standard payment method, so it's worth coming prepared.
La Despensa de Madrid is an itinerant market that also visits Algete on a weekly basis. Its stalls focus on food products: fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and poultry, and cheese and dairy.
