Mercado Central de València

The Mercado Central is one of the largest and most beautiful fresh-food markets in Europe, and a Valencia landmark in its own right. Much of a market is naturally gluten-free — fruit, vegetables, cured meats, cheeses, nuts, olives — which makes it a relaxed place to graze.

There are also stalls that cater specifically to coeliacs. It’s a stop that shows how gluten-free eating in Valencia starts with the ingredients themselves. As always in a mixed environment, ask before you buy anything prepared or fried.
