When we asked people living in Spain about good local restaurants, they mentioned...

"There are many big stores like El Corte Inglés, Mercadona and Carrefour and most expats shop. There are many smaller neighborhood stores in every corner. It's very easy to find grocery stores here," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Granada, Spain.

"People living in Spain typically buy groceries from local supermarkets, such as Mercadona, Carrefour, and El Corte Inglés. They also shop at local markets, such as La Boqueria in Barcelona, for fresh produce and other items. Additionally, people in Spain often shop at smaller, independent stores for specialty items. For other shopping, people in Spain often visit shopping malls, such as Centro Comercial Gran Vía in Madrid, or shop online," commented one expat who made the move to Spain.
