- Shopping in Madrid is still centred on small, specialized stores, and busy food markets. For those who prefer the boutiques and specialty shops to department stores and supermarkets, then you should definitely make an effort to visit the different zones and take the time to explore the huge array of shops at your disposal. Although we can't possibly to justice to the huge numbers of shops in the city, they tend to group together, so usually where we have only one shop listed, you will find many stores selling similar goods nearby. Below you can find a list with just a few(!) examples of stores Madrid has to offer.
- El Corte Inglés is a spanish institution, and since they bought "Galerías Preciados" in 1995, it's really the only complete department store in the country. In most shops they have also good supermarkets, and the gourmet club, normally in the gentleman floor (we don´t know why...) where you can find delicatessen.
- You can buy a ticket for a concert, a magazine while you have a coffee or a sanwich, a video-tape and its video-recorder. The lasttest models in electronic and computers.
- It is not a big store, but you can buy mainly food, drinks, magazines, books and music cd's untill 3.00 am. Sundays too.
