The Horgan Family

Our Story

Overlooking Kinsale Harbour, Man Friday Deli offers a warm and welcoming experience for every occasion. Established in 1978 by Philip Horgan after training and working in Ballymaloe, the deli has remained rooted in quality and tradition. His son Daniel later followed in his footsteps, also training at Ballymaloe, and bringing further experience from Scotts, Petersham Nurseries, Nopi, and St John to Man Friday for customers to enjoy.
