Mercat de Santa Caterina is where Barcelona’s daily appetite meets contemporary Catalan design—an 1845 neighbourhood market reimagined by Miralles and Tagliabue beneath a rippling, fruit-and-vegetable mosaic roof. Step inside and the architecture gives way to something timeless: immaculate produce, seafood and charcuterie, with the gentle hum of locals shopping with purpose. It’s an elegant glimpse of how the city honours tradition while quietly insisting on reinvention.

Just found this spot before my flight for a quick meal but this became a huge discover for me. Pizza is super delicious and also staff is so friendly and warm. Just eat pizza with 4 cheese and dough also the toppinga are top quality. Pizza is making right in front of you in open kitchen consept really decent place for try and also service is soo fast.

Absolutely a stunning market in the core of Barcelona. The colors were so vibrant with amazing food at every turn. The sandwich was exceptional. The crispy thin bread reminded me of Florence..but better?

A wonderful market to walk around in the morning to see the fresh meat, cheese, seafood, fruits and vegetables. There are a number of vendors selling prepared food for breakfast or lunch. You don’t have to buy anything. You can just look and dream. It’s also in a building with a very artistic roof.
