Supermarkets in Lagos
The Algarve offers a comprehensive variety of supermarket chains, with a mix of local and international products. It works because every village will have a mini-market for basic shopping while each other town will have one big supermarket. Traditional shops As you might have seen in some of our previous articles, Continente and Pingo Doce have hundreds of ranches all over Portugal. Both offer all the traditional food you might be looking for with some other options. Most branches have fresh bakeries and butcher counters, stocking many options of each item and offering regular sales.
