The Market Puerto Rico

Gastro Food Gallery, Supermarket & Shopping in Puerto Rico

Since its opening in January 2019, The Market Puerto Rico, a small but fine shopping centre has become hugely popular with both locals and tourists in Gran Canaria’s Puerto Rico and surrounding towns.

The Market Puerto Rico is tastefully designed incorporating plants and water features throughout its structure. The main focus of the centre is to shop, relax, eat good food and have fun doing it.

Food & Restaurants

The star of the eateries is the Gasto Gallery, a street food inspired area on the top floor of the centre. Each member of your group can order their food from a different food stall from around the world, while you all still sit together at one of the tables on the terrace.

For example Helamore is selling some of the best Italian ice cream we have ever tasted outside of Italy. Another place to sit and relax is El Moli right above the main entrance, while enjoying amazing coffee, pastries, sandwiches and snacks.The food market quite often organizes different live entertainment on special occasions.

The Spar cafeteria has become a perfect meeting point for taking a coffee or a beer with friends. Their prices are good plus it is a great place to people watch while sitting in the lovely Canarian sunshine. The Tipsy Elements cocktail bar at the very end of the centre is proving to be very popular for its drinks, cocktails, quirky food, music and great atmosphere. And its fantastic view over Puerto Rico itself.

The Shops

The Market Puerto Rico boasts with a handful of modern clothes shops like Koala Bay, Premium or Hurley and the popular sports shop Estadio Sport. Tenerife Pearl offers beautiful jewellery while Travel Tech specializes in accessories like phone covers and chargers.

If you didn’t fancy shopping, there is cleverly arranged seating and even sun beds for a quick chill out! ON the top level you will also find a small play area for the little ones.

The Super Market

A supermarket in a shopping centre always draws people. The SPAR supermarket in The Market has definitely accomplished that. Some feel, that going to that SPAR is an experience in itself! There are so many fresh products on offer. From the beautiful display of fruit and vegetables over to fresh bread and typical local dishes prepared onsite for you to take away.

Cheese has its own room! Another room for wine and one more for beer! For anyone with special dietary requirements a large Natural Spar supermarket can be found here.They have a huge selection of ecological and natural products.

Conclusion about The Market

The Market Puerto Rico offers you not only a good shopping time, but also a great gastronomic experience with a delicious local food gallery in south-west of Gran Canaria. There is a park house under the centre, and of course you only need to cross the road and you are at the Mogan Mall and the old shopping centre in Puerto Rico.

Clean and modern but I was hoping for a better shopping experience as this mall is directed at tourists with more money than sense. Across the road a large Spar can be found which is worth a visit.

Had a day out in the market (today)Plenty of stalls, plenty of bargains.Lovely little town, nice little bars/ cafes.Very busy little port, plenty of life and atmosphere. You can get the ferry from Puerto Rico to mogan €13 return and the market and stalls start there.Plenty of shops also. Mogan market on a Friday definitely worth a visit.

I liked the place but was a bit frustrated about the customer service because she acted a bit rude and not very forthcoming and she kept saying my feet werent normal. Maybe her English was just bad or she really wanted to be rude ( where I come from sales people try to help the customers even those with weird feet, but it is not considered normal or nice behaviour to laugh at the customers) The other place I was ignored even though the shop had only one pair of shooes that fit and I knew what I wanted. But she was nicer than in the other shop, just overworked so it was not her fault.

Fantastic shopping centre, just what the area needed. Beautifully lit up in the evening, good selection of shops, Stradavarious, Bershka, Lefties, Pull & Bear, JD Sports, Lacoste, and many more. Good selection of cafes and restaurants, good seating areas. Free Parking most of the days, pet friendly also. Love it

Great place for a bargain, beware each store you walked past they will try to get u to buy something, always haggle a lower price, its always worked for me, loads of bargains, some good fake brands, upper floor is mainly bars, clubs and restaurants, well worth of a visit, drinks prices can vary from bar to bar but don't be surprised at the high costs!!Best place for a food shop is spar, about 30 meters off the beach, prices can be as much as €1 cheaper than the Dinohyp markets...

Purpose built shopping mall in Puerto Rico,Grand Canaria. Wonderful selection of shops,bars and restaurants. Very competitive prices. Thewhole area is spotlessly clean and very inviting to the serious shopper,would definitely recommend a visit.

(Visited Jun 2022)We found the particular shout-outs to the Spar on here strange. We visited it. We now understand why. Best Spar on the planet.

First of all be aware that there is an Old Centro Comercial and a new one that is just a bit further inland (about 5 minutes walk between them). The old one has many more restaurants whilst the new one more shopping outlets. We ate in two different places in the old center and the service and food was very good .

🙂 New, nice, clean. Parking is a little more difficult then across the road and way less shops due to Covid closures etc. Worth a walk, a look and a shop. Puerto Rico the town needs better transit to help guests move around the town without need for a rental or personal car. Bicycle access and places to lock up limited and Transit needs to service the entire town and hotels, housing etc and the whole surrounding area. Taxi / car & gasoline costs can ruin any savings found. Kids play areas are free and are a great diversion for the kids. Good seating to watch your kids however for parents is limited to pay-as-you-go cafe seating. Or further away on the few sunchair styled bench seating. If the mall owners want to compete they should invite a Sakura IV style buffet and all you can eat prices similar to Park San Telmo in the city. Also, maybe find a way to lower food chain prices. Nothings worse then finding a deal or that great gift idea at shop and be taken for food, parking or logistics to arrive and depart. Maybe bring in an IKEA outlet or a Lego play area drop-off? Spar anchors downstairs and has great prices except their is nowhere to really sit and eat your newly acquired pack lunch. A food court used to be the mall thing and should come back. It was the place where all ages and choices could sit and eat and pick and march from various choices. Public Libraries, Satellite School Campuses, Bus Stations, Olympic Training Centres, Airport & City & Hotel Connectors, Public Swimming Pools etc all bring walking traffic and guests numbers. Lets not forget the clout of big business telling government its a good idea to make the bus system full public including becoming a hub for school bus transfers both private and public. Feed the guests needs feed the coffers. Connection to bicycle trails would be nice as well. 4 stars as selection is limited due to the many closed shop fronts.

We visited this new place at Christmas when on Holiday with its designer shops and restaurants, there is also a very good Spar supermarket. The shops are new with more to open. Just across the road from the Market Puerto Rico is the Morgan Mall with even more new designer shops all modern and new with lots of parking available. There are restaurants as well, up from Puerto Rico commercial centre with all it’s shops and restaurants/bars close by.

Lovely, modern, clean shopping centre. Sun loungers to relax on as well as great places to eat. Kids activity areas. Spar supermarket with great prices and value. Security always on duty. Nobody shouting at you from bars or restaurants to come in. Overall a relaxing clean place with a really great atmosphere. Toilets are always spotless too.
