Mercado Municipal de Abastos de Haría
The municipal food market of Haría serves the north of Lanzarote from a building on Calle Barranco de Tesnesia, inside the village itself. Under one roof it gathers a herbalist, a florist, a fishmonger, a butcher, fruit and vegetable stalls and a takeaway food counter. It is a practical stop for anyone touring the valley of a thousand palms who wants island produce without leaving the centre.
Haría is the main village of northern Lanzarote and is known as the valley of a thousand palms for the density of Canary palms around it. Its municipal food market sits in a building on Calle Barranco de Tesnesia, a short walk from the centre, and is the everyday shopping point for people in the area. It is often cited as the only covered food market left on the island, where the open air mercadillo is by far the more common format.
According to the town council of Haría, the premises house a herbalist, a florist, a fishmonger, a butcher, fruit and vegetable stalls and a takeaway food counter. The scale is modest and dealing directly with the person behind the counter is part of the visit, with island produce on a good share of the displays. The village also holds its own craft market on Plaza León y Castillo, with traditional and contemporary handicrafts, cheeses, pastries and organically grown fruit and vegetables. The two operate separately and are easy to mix up.
