About the Praza de Abastos
O Barco sits in the Sil river valley and serves as the capital of the Valdeorras wine region, known for its Godello white wines. The market reflects the practical, everyday food culture of this Galician town. The indoor hall is wheelchair accessible and stalls accept both cash and card payments, making it straightforward for all shoppers.
What to buy at the Praza de Abastos
The 15 stalls cover the six things the market is stocked for: fish and seafood, meat and poultry, fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, cheese and dairy, and bread and bakery. That is a full weekday shop rather than a specialist food hall, and with the same 9am to 2:30pm hours every trading day it is a morning errand, not an afternoon one.
Where to stay in O Barco de Valdeorras

What time does the Praza de Abastos open?
The Praza de Abastos in O Barco de Valdeorras opens at 9am and closes at 2:30pm, Monday to Saturday, and is closed all day Sunday. Those hours are the same on all six trading days, including Saturday, so there is no evening session and no late opening to catch after work.
Can you eat at the Praza de Abastos?
The Praza de Abastos is a food shopping hall rather than a place to sit down and eat, and no bar or tapas counter is recorded among its facilities. What you can do is buy ready-to-eat food from the 15 stalls, including bread from the bakery counter, Galician cheese, and fruit.
Is the Praza de Abastos in O Barco wheelchair accessible?
Yes, the Praza de Abastos is wheelchair accessible. It is a covered indoor hall at Av. Marcelino Suárez, 28, with step-free access to the stalls, which also makes it easier going with a pushchair or a shopping trolley than an open-air street market on cobbles would be.
Can you pay by card at the Praza de Abastos?
Yes, stalls at the Praza de Abastos take both cash and credit cards. That covers the fish, meat, cheese and bakery counters alike, though carrying some cash is still worth it for a small purchase, and the market's 9am to 2:30pm hours mean you cannot come back for it later in the day.
