Eating in Sarria

Pulpo á Feira

Don’t leave Sarria without trying pulpo á feira, better if it’s a fair day: the 6th, 20th and 27th of each month in the Campo da Feira, on Rúa da Mercede, in the highest part of the town. An extension of the space occupied by the medieval market, already documented in the 14th century. Whether it is at the fair or in a restaurant, go to a pulpería de Sarria and see why our octopus is so famous. Alone or with cachelos (boiled potatoes)? With sweet or hot paprika? You choose.

Porco Celta

When you visit Sarria you will discover why we are one of the leading places in pork production. Among them is the Celtic pork, a recovered native breed that grows freely in pastures and forests, which gives it an unbeatable flavour. We even have our own Festa do Porco Celta, where you can try the famous cocido de porco celta. Enjoy pork meat in different formats: fresh for cooking, salted and tasty traditional sausages: chorizo, salchichón, chicharrones, lacón de Sarria… All of them produced in an artisan way.

Ternera Galega

Grilled, steak, stewed, carne ó caldeiro… no matter how it is prepared, our rubia galega will delight your palate. And do you know why? Because the pastures are of high quality. In addition to the rubia, you can also find other autochthonous breeds such as cachena, caldelá, limiá, frieiresa and vianesa.

Verduras Galegas

Sarria’s abundant water makes a rich vegetable garden possible. The most popular vegetables in the area are beets, turnip greens and cabbage. All of them are perfect for preparing a good stew or Galician stew and to replenish your strength or warm up on colder days.

Pan y empanadas

If you are Galician, you already know this, but if you are not, be warned: Galician bread is highly addictive. Its artisan production process means that the crust is crunchy, the crumb is spongy and the flavour is natural and authentic, even several days after baking. Not to mention the smell that fills the streets thanks to the traditional bakeries. You can start your day with some crunchy toast and then prepare for your route or excursion a good sandwich with some of our tasty sausages or a artisan Galician bread roll (zorza, iscos, chorizo, octopus, cod, vegetables…).

Sweets and desserts

And if you have a sweet tooth, you must try one or more of the typical desserts of Sarria: melindres, filloas, freixós, cheese, roscón, almond, chestnut or walnut cake, fried milk or a “santito”.
