Cool market. Overall it is cheaper and cleaner than the ones I visited in La Paz. You can find typical dishes and fruit for very good prices.

A good example of a Bolivan market, with a few food court sections, meat vendors, fruit vendors, veggie vendors, and spice vendors.A good place to try local Bolivian dishes!

Good place to do some local shopping. They have all kinds of shops from fruits to clothes. I recommend going here in the evening as it gets more busy and more fun to watch.

3 floors of a true bolivian market place. Worth a walk to buy some fresh fruit or cheese. The top floor has Bolivian meals that are cooled without much attention to western hygiene and I think all of the menus are identical. Definitely worth a visit to explore, eat if youre feeling brave and your stomach has adjusted to the food

Typical south american market with meat, vegetables etc. On the little square they sell fruit juices for 6-8bs with milk / water or 15bs natural ones with just juice (either pineapple or apple with the fruit you choose). Upstairs there are several places to eat. They all have the same selection pretty much and its ready, so pretty fast to get served.

Cash only. 2nd fl. This is where the locals dine in either breakfast, lunch, dinner. Portions are huge, 2 people can easily share a plate. Prices are a fraction of what you’d pay outside of mercado. You can find anything and everything.

Like most places in Bolivia - be aware of pickpocketers. Otherwise - the vendors expect you to barter and enjoy the back and forth.

Everything you need to survive in one place, nicely organized, with multiple offerings. A real example of the best capitalism has to offer. I wish the USA had something like it.

Best place to buy fresh fruits and vegetables at just two blocks from the central square! Around it there are many shops where you can find almost everything. The exchange money shops are around too.

Rating is a fragile thing. At this market the local come and they love it. That it doesn’t live up to my standards as a spoiled European shouldn’t effect the rating. I had local food and I loved it. People were happy and helpsome.

What a beautiful, lively market place. You can find anything from good fresh fruits, vegetables, bread, cakes, cookies, meat, eggs and cheese to clothes and hygiene and house cleaning products. Prices are good, but make sure to query around a few stalls to get the best deal. There is not a lot of margin to bargain, but asking with a smile never hurts. Also on the third floor there are local restaurants, mostly with the same offers and prices on the menu. Notice that each has the name of the female cook! Please do try “sopa de maní” (peanut soup), BOB5 and mondongo (a local dish with corn, pork meat and potatoes), BOB15. There is also the menu for BOB12, including soup and a main dish. It gets really busy until 1pm. Slows down its pace between 1 and 5pm and gets the hassle again by the end of the afternoon. Around 6pm there is bread coming from a nearby village, for which locals line up.

One of my favorite places in Bolivia!! You can find the freshest, most beautiful fruits, vegetables, meats, and almost anything else your mind can imagine!!! It is better organized than Mercado Campesino. Definitely worth taking a stroll around, and if you are here for a longer time the best place to buy everything you need for cooking!! And dont forget they have amazing offerings for lunch on the third floor!!

Grab some delicious mango or avocado, and then head up to the top floor for cheap food, about 15 bob per serving. Looks dirty for europeans, but we ate there twice without any issues whatsoever.

I love the markets in Bolivia. This one is very manageable when the markets can sometimes be overwhelming. Everyone was always patient with me & poor Spanish. Could get everything I needed here.

Heres the lowdown on the mercado central;Breakfast; get some bread from the inside area by the fruit stands ask for "caspitas", get some fresh and delicious cream "nata" it comes in a little cup for 7bs. from the fresh milk area, next to the cheese vendors.Lunch; chorizo chuquisaqueno sandwich - at the "7 lunares" spot inside the market, or head cheese sandwich - dont freak! take the sample it is awesome!Late night, try tojori con leche and bunuelos.

One of the most important markets in Chuquisaca where you can find almost anything to eat in large amounts and cheap prices. The bad thing however is the lack of hygiene and terrible state of the toilets.

This is an interesting cultural experience of youve never seen a market in a developing country before. You can buy lots of fresh veggies and fruits. The best part is the route of stalls selling fruit juices for 5 bolivianos.

Great selection of fresh fruit and veg. Perfect for cooking a veggie meal when youre in Sucre. Be careful to negotiate prices. Dont accept the first price - you may be paying a gringo tax.

One of my favourite markets in South America. They have food day and night (try Api and a pastry for breakfast). The fruit juices are great and the fruit salads are insane

Definitely one of the nicer major city Central Markets in Bolivia. Prices are only slightly higher than those in Mercado Campesino. It is, of course, an outdoor market in a developing country. With that in mind, hanging slabs of beef and pork and whole chicken carcasses out in the open wont seem out of the ordinary. And after a while youll stop noticing all the dogs wandering around. The vendors are friendly, although some seem to be jaded to the presence of foreigners.

El Mercado Central is the best place to buy fresh fruits and vegetables. It is also the recommended place to have tasty authentic Bolivian food. E. G.: Sopa de Mais for 5 Bolivianos or several local lunches for 10 to 18 Bolivianos. For dessert I would recommend fresh made fruit salad for 8 to 12 Bolivianos.
