Cabral Market
A compact indoor market in Vigo's Cabral neighbourhood, with 25 stalls selling fresh seafood, meat, fruit, vegetables, and bread. Open Tuesday to Saturday from 8:30am to 2pm.
Cabral Market (Mercado de Cabral) is a covered municipal market on Av. de Ramón Nieto in the Cabral neighbourhood of Vigo. Its 25 stalls run Tuesday to Saturday from 8:30am to 2pm, closed on Mondays and Sundays. Built in 1995 and shared with a vocational training centre run by the Fundación Galega do Metal, it serves as the daily food shop for the surrounding residential neighbourhood.
What to buy
Fish and seafood are the highlight, as with most municipal markets in Vigo. You'll find freshly caught fish alongside meat and poultry, seasonal fruit and vegetables, local cheese and dairy, and bread from the bakery stalls. The market takes cash and mobile payments.

Where to stay in Vigo
Staying in the city centre puts you close to Cabral Market and within easy reach of Vigo's waterfront and main shopping streets. Try the Gran Hotel Nagari Boutique & Spa for a comfortable central base, or look for something more affordable around Casco Vello, the old town, where you'll find plenty of smaller hotels and guesthouses.
If you prefer to be near the water, El Berbés is a short trip from the market and gives you a good feel for the city's fishing heritage. Most of Vigo is easy to get around by foot or local bus, so you won't need to worry too much about being in exactly the right spot.
