Where Cagliari shops, snacks and lunches: the markets worth your morning.
Food markets, farmers markets and covered halls: where Cagliari shops, snacks and lunches.
Cagliari's biggest civic market trades from a temporary hall on Piazza Nazzari, some 170 stalls of fish, produce, cheese, bread and cured meat.
Go for: Fish, Produce, Cheese, Cured meat
Tip: The 1957 building on Via Cocco Ortu closed for reconstruction in March 2025, so the market you want is the Piazza Nazzari hall, shut on Sunday.
Mercato di Santa Chiara is the oldest civic market in Cagliari, 300 square metres above Piazza Yenne on the site of a convent bombed during the war.
Go for: Produce, Food court, Breakfast
Tip: Renovation turned part of the hall into a food court, so the stalls now run from breakfast into the evening above Piazza Yenne.
