The 1991 Meath Senior Football Championship is the 99th edition of the Meath GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior graded teams in County Meath, Ireland. The tournament consists of 15 teams, with the winner going on to represent Meath in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage.

This was Dunderry's return to the grade after claiming the 1990 Meath Intermediate Football Championship title.

Navan O'Mahonys were the defending champions after they defeated Summerhill after a replay in the previous years final, however their quest for five titles in a row was ended by Walterstown at the semi-final stage.

Gaeil Colmcille claimed their 1st S.F.C. title (since being formed from the Kilmainham, Drumnbaragh and Kells Harps clubs in 1966) when beating Walterstown 1-12 to 1-6 after a replay in the final at Pairc Tailteann on 3rd November 1991. Terry Ferguson raised the Keegan Cup for Gaeil Colmcille while Eugene McGillick claimed the 'Man of the Match' award.

Nobber were regraded from the S.F.C. after 11 years as a senior club, which included three semi-final appearances. Castletown were also regraded after 15 years in the top-flight.
