Hello,
We are looking to come for Christmas this year. Are all shops/restaurants shut on Christmas Day? We was going to fly then as it’s cheaper but are worried we won’t get any supplies for our apartment. Will supermarkets shut early on Christmas Eve?
Thanks.
Hello
Yes & Yes to shops, some restaurants will be open, some are fully booked now. Depends what you want & where from....remember it is not Spanish Xmas Day until 6th Jan - 3 Kings Day.
Supermarkets will vary in the time they close on 24th so you would have to check your personal choice nearer the time.
Cheers
Elinspain

Hi
Depending whereabouts you are located,our local Repsol garage at Los Dolses is always open and it has the most amazing freshly baked goods, even on Christmas day.You will be able to get all your basics until you can do a full shop.
