Municipal Markets in Andoain

Andoain, a compact Basque town in Gipuzkoa province, maintains its local food traditions through its municipal market infrastructure.

Located between San Sebastián and Tolosa, this industrial town of around 8,000 residents has preserved the importance of fresh, local produce in daily life.

The municipal market serves as a focal point for the community, where locals gather to purchase seasonal vegetables, fresh fish from the nearby coast, and regional specialities.

Traditional Basque ingredients like txistorra, idiazábal cheese, and locally grown beans feature prominently.

The market reflects Andoain's practical approach to food culture, emphasising quality and regional sourcing over tourist appeal.
