Mercadona: Suprmercado (Supermarket) Mercadona
  • Tip Rating:
  • The new Mercadona has opened just before Christmas 2004 at the top of town. Just up from the Hostal Ermita. It is a large supermarket but do be careful of the pavement outside, which is quite narrow. Please also note that the old Mercadonna on Calle Fray Junipero is now CLOSED and is now a Chinese market.
    Mercadona is CLOSED all day on Sundays.

    Warning:
    The pavement is very narrow here and the road busy with traffic. Take care, especially when crossing the road.

    Meat, fruit, vegetables, bread, tinned foods etc. Virtually anything that any International supermarket sells. A good sellection of fresh and frozen food and wines can be found here.

    Freshly baked bread which the English call French sticks and the Spanish call Barras can also be bought here.

    I found that the fresh fruit and vegetables are much cheaper than in England and fresher.

    It depends upon what you want really, but on the whole I feel all their prices are quite fair. However, English brands will cost you more than Spanish ones.

    The Sunday and Tuesday markets: Get a bargain at the Markets.
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Sunday market is more of a 'Car Boot sale' affair whereas the Tuesday one is a propper market that also sells fruit and vegetables and NEW clothing.

    For some reason, I created my Markets page on the 'Off the beaten track' section. (Stupid me!). For more information on the Markets and their locations, please use the link.

    The Sunday market is now so far out of town that it feels like 'off the beaten track'!

    So many things can be obtained from these two markets that they are totally impossible to list here.

    Less than average prices.

    Calles Cristo/Almirante Ferrandiz (Post Office St.: Gifts and mementos
  • Tip Rating:
  • There are many little arts and crafts shops both on the above street, (C/ Cristo becomes C/ A. Ferrandiz further down), and Calle Pintada. These are what are known as the lanes because of their narrowness. Don't be fooled and think they are therefore pedestrian only though. Traffic is allowed along them as you will find out if unwary.

    Even if not buying, these are very pleasant little streets and there are a few bars along the way too!
    Shops stay open until quite late in Spain so you can browse at night if you wish to.

    All the little gifts that are so easy to pack can be found here from posters, wine, clothing and other curios.

    It very much depends upon you. If you think that a price is reasonable, then OK.

    Supermarket Opening Times
    The supermarkets in Nerja do not open until 9.30am, although they do stay open late everday. They are also closed on Sundays. There is however a small supermarket in Maro that is open on Sundays.
