About Coria Municipal Market

The market sits in an indoor building on one of Coria's main roads and serves the local community rather than tourists. With 15 stalls, it's compact but well stocked with fresh daily produce, covering between them what you would otherwise split between a greengrocer, a butcher, a fishmonger and a grocery store. The hours are the same on all six trading days, 9am to 2pm, with no afternoon session and nothing on a Sunday. Both cash and card payments are accepted, and the entrance is wheelchair accessible.
