Big C Market
This Big C supermarket is a practical and well-stocked one-stop shopping destination serving both visitors and residents in Hua Hin. The store carries a broad range of products including groceries, household essentials, clothing, and alcohol, with a decent selection of international goods alongside local Thai products. Beyond the main supermarket floor, the centre includes a KFC, bakery, pharmacy, coffee shop, and ATM facilities, making it a genuinely useful stop for those looking to cover multiple errands in a single visit. A cluster of additional grocery vendors operates in the outdoor parking area, adding further variety for fresh and local produce. The store has been modernised and expanded in recent years, with generally well-stocked shelves and friendly staff reported by visitors. The fresh vegetable section has received mixed feedback, so those with specific produce requirements may want to supplement their shop at a local market. Note that alcohol purchases are restricted to two daily windows in line with Thai law: 11:00am to 2:00pm and 5:00pm to 10:00pm. The store opens daily from 9:00am to 9:00pm, offering good flexibility for most itineraries. Weekends tend to draw larger crowds, so a mid-morning visit on a weekday is the most comfortable option. The centre has ample parking and is accessible by car or songthaew. Pets are not permitted inside the store.

Visitor Reviews
Good market have pharmacy, coffee shop KFC restaurant, ATM plenty of parking.
Good product range, the store has been modernized and expanded, good price, they have some farang foods, friendly staff. The one thing that needs improvement is the fresh vegetables department. Sometimes veggies are not too fresh, or something is sold out when you need it, or they're expensive, or the price label is unclear. The butchery also needs improvement: quite often the meat in the trays is dried out and not very fresh. Some staff members there are not exactly in a hurry to help customers either: i once counted 6 of them around me, and none of them were even looking at me. Apart from these points it's all quite good. Especially the wide product range and the quick checkouts with friendly staff members are a plus. It's also quiet in there, no loud music or anything, which adds to a comfortable shopping experience.
At Big C there are Toilets KFC Bakery Wide range of products including alcohol. The alcohol is available between 11am & 2pm and also 5pm & 10pm

Tips for Visiting Markets & Shopping
Haggle at Markets, Not Malls
Prices at market stalls are negotiable — start at 50–60% of the asking price and meet in the middle. Fixed-price shops and malls don't haggle. Smile and keep it friendly; aggressive bargaining is considered rude.
Arrive Early or Late
Vendors believe the first sale of the day is lucky — you'll often get a better deal if you arrive right when the market opens. Late in the evening, sellers may also discount to avoid packing unsold goods.
Be Cautious with Tailors
Bangkok has excellent tailors, but also many tourist traps. Avoid anyone offering suspiciously cheap suits or who approaches you on the street. Ask your hotel for recommendations, read reviews, and always get two fittings.
