About us

Sheridans Cheesemongers is run by its’ owners – Kevin Sheridan and Seamus Sheridan. The company was founded in 1995, when brothers Seamus and Kevin started selling Irish farmhouse cheeses at the Galway market. Shortly after they opened a shop in Galway with Irish farmhouse cheeses piled from floor to ceiling. The Dublin markets and the South Anne Street shop in the city centre were established that year. The Irish cheeses were quickly joined by their European cousins as well as a huge range of other artisan foods including olive oils, cured meats, condiments and pasta sourced during  travels in Europe.

Since their first foray into the world of cheese from a small market stall, the business expanded to include over 20 retail establishments across Ireland, with a purpose built warehouse premises with offices and maturing rooms in County Meath. It is on the site of the Old Virginia Road Railway Station; from there we supply our many trade customers.

Our Products

We are passionately committed to sourcing highest quality artisan products and forging links directly with the food producers. The close relationships we have with our suppliers are of the utmost importance to the ethos of the company. Many of the farmhouse cheeses and foods are handmade locally in Ireland and we have a wide selection of delicious artisan produce from all over Europe.

We stock an extensive collection of Irish Farmhouse cheeses including Durrus, Coolea, Cashel, Hegartys and more. We have ensured that we source the best of continental cheeses available; to single out a few- Cravero Parmigiano Reggiano, Dongé Brie de Meaux, Marcel Petit Comté. We put a lot of effort in to ensuring that our cheeses reach you at optimum levels of ripeness and maturity. Our other products include Rustichella d’Abruzzo Pastas, Ortiz Tunas, Prunotto Italian Pasta sauces, cheese accompaniments and Luscombe Organic Drinks.

Of course it is hard to be passionate about cheese without also developing a love of good wine. Over the years we have sourced an array of wines from across Europe. You can find our wines in Sheridans Shops in Meath/Dublin South Anne St./ Galway Churchyard St., as well as good retailers and restaurants throughout the country.

Over the years we have collaborated with a number of great makers to produce a range of foods with our favourite Sheridans recipes. These include our award-winning Brown Bread, Rye & Linseed and Mixed Seed Crackers; Duck Confit; Hummus and Pestos; Chutneys and Jams.

Our Shops

We and all who are part of the team at Sheridans have worked hard to gain our reputation as Ireland’s leading cheese retailer. We believe that the single most important factor in this has been the experience which customers have each and every time they shop with us – from the quality of produce, to the knowledgeable and friendly staff, to the way we serve and present cheeses. We are always keen for the customer to participate and taste as they buy.

We have shops in Dublin, Meath, Galway, Kildare, Wicklow, Limerick, Kerry, Cork, Ardkeen in Waterford.

Many of the best of Ireland’s retailers also stock Sheridans products so you can find them throughout Ireland.

Wholesale

We are continually expanding our wholesale business operation. We supply to restaurants and shops across Ireland, as well as exporting Irish cheeses to Europe.

Our own experience in the retail and the catering trade has meant that we can bring a lot more to the relationship with our wholesale customers than other suppliers. We work with our trade customers (through staff training and product selection) to ensure that both the business customers and the end retail customers always get the best possible experience when purchasing Sheridans products.
