Fruit and groceries on Avenida Luís Bívar
Minimercado e frutaria is an independent mercearia on Avenida Luís Bívar in Saldanha, the kind of small shop you pass on the way to São Sebastião station and step into for one or two things rather than a full trolley.
Fruit is the draw in the name and on the shelves, alongside everyday groceries: milk, tobacco, and small souvenirs such as magnets. The magnets are the item with a clear price on them, €2 to €2.50 each, which is more than the €1 they cost in most other shops.
This is a compact shop rather than a supermarket with aisles to wander. You browse standing close to the counter, and the stock is what fits on the shelves of a neighbourhood mercearia: fruit, milk, tobacco, small gifts. There is no seating and no counter service beyond paying.
Expect to spend €5–15 if you pick up a few items.
If you want a quick, impersonal stop for fruit or milk, it works; if you want to browse at leisure, it does not.
What to look for

Fruit sits alongside milk, tobacco and other daily items in a small mercearia format.
Magnets at €2–€2.50
Small souvenirs are sold here, priced above the €1 they cost in most other shops.
Open 8 am to 10 pm daily
The shop keeps the same hours seven days a week, Sunday included.
Who is this for
Travellers staying in Saldanha who need fruit, milk or a small souvenir late in the evening will find the doors open until 10 pm every day. Anyone passing São Sebastião station and wanting one or two items rather than a full shop fits the format. It also suits someone picking up a last-minute magnet.
If you want organic and bio groceries rather than a quick fruit stop, Celeiro Duque de Ávila on Avenida Duque de Ávila is 350 m away and open until 8 pm six days a week.
The verdict
The shop is a plain neighbourhood mercearia rather than a destination grocer, so it suits a quick stop for fruit or milk rather than a planned browse.
