About Mercado Municipal Estefânia - Sintra

Mercado Municipal Estefânia is a bustling market that offers an abundance of fresh produce, including fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, dairy products, bread, and pastries, all at reasonable prices. The market is praised for its excellent quality and friendly vendors, with the fruit stand and the bakery stand offering particularly delicious products.

One of the most popular upstairs restaurants is dedicated to serving up tasty Portuguese dishes, such as bacalhau (salted cod) with chips and salad, accompanied by white wine. Visitors can also enjoy shrimp and beer, as well as the owner's signature homemade condensed milk pudding and liqueur.

Additionally, a newer restaurant called "Cozinha de Casa" has recently opened, specializing in Leitão de Negrais (roast suckling pig) and offering a daily menu of soup, main dish, and drink, as well as croquetas, chicken dishes, and various sweets. The market and its upstairs restaurants provide visitors with a welcoming atmosphere, where the freshness of the food mixes with the aromas of fruit.
