Maegden are a genuine cheesemonger and premium food emporium situated in the charming north coast village of Bushmills. Alongside their signature grilled cheese sandwiches, they offer delightful sweet treats and specialty coffee for those on the move.
Starting out originally in a vintage caravan nestled in a field, Maegden’s core focus has remained steadfast: championing independent, truly artisanal local producers. From skilled bakers to cheese artisans, from charcuterie makers to dedicated beekeepers and adept coffee roasters, they’ve consistently supported these talents. Their grilled cheese sandwiches remain a testament to our commitment, packed with the finest farmhouse and small-batch Irish ingredients sourced directly from the cheese counter. The shelves are adorned solely with products they say that they adore, use in their own kitchen, or craft themselves! Maegden’s quest is to seek out those elusive, globally renowned products and introduce them to the humble town of Bushmills.
