Spring in Segovia: Shopping Local

Latest

Hello and welcome to Spring in Segovia; the perfect guide on how to enjoy the most beautiful season of the year in the quaint town we call home!

With all the problems COVID has caused in this past year, the economic crisis is one of the problems that hit Spain the hardest. Therefore, we can all try to do something to help our beloved Segovia and its small businesses that are all around us.

So here is a short list of shops able to suit your every need!

Food Products

Here’s some alternatives to shop in carrefour and dia!

  • Producto National

There are many shops like this in Segovia, where all the products are from Spain and are divided by region. You’ll be able to find good wines, cheese and typical Spanish products of very good quality. Also, the staff speaks english and they are always ready to help and give you the best advice depending on your tastes. Enjoy the 5% discount all IE students have!

  • El Diablo Cojuelo

Probably most of you know this place, as is the best place to buy good wine and alcohol. Although, what not everyone knows is that you can find many other products such as cheese, chocolate, olive oil and even skin and hair care products! They are also going to serve you coffee if you want!

  • Farmer’s Market

Everyone must have seen the farmer’s market that takes place in Plaza every Thursday morning (10am to 1pm), although I know many people who still have never gone there to buy something. The reason why I believe it is great to shop there is because the quality of the fruits and vegetables is way higher than in any supermarket, the price is cheaper and the people working there are nicer. hXTxZTxKNMlMn3nDnYkoGTOVXxi2eKfYYjKwHrCorwS bIdGrqWDQunuyaUD3pcZiRW7sd7a54 4oIJ9BB1FSIEOvTEbr7yr2nnFW7Myz0rIdhNF8uC79ZQWAqmC1v8983wKQWcK

  • Little Fruits and Vegetable Shop

This little stall around the corner of plaza, just on your way to irish (a way that you all know pretty well), somehow has EVERY type of vegetable, herbes, fruits and vegetable related product you can imagine, all in the 2 square meters. Also, the people working there are super nice and will only give you good quality products. Once, I had asked for some mint and the worker showed it to me and said that it didn’t match their standards of quality, therefore he wasn’t going to sell it.

Here’s a super good store with super good healthy and gluten free and organic products. If you are allergic to gluten, vegan, or just want to eat less processed food this is the place for you!
