This place is has Excellent quality food and has anything you want and the people are very nice to i would recommend to all to try this place

Not nice to see bad reviews from people who don’t like dogs in this cafe, just because they allow regular loyal customers with dogs to sit in their premises does not mean they are running a dirty establishment. We frequent Shepherds regularly and they are always cleaning, dogs are not permitted on chairs and we are asked to make sure our dog is kept on the floor. Service and friendliness of staff and quality of food is excellent Local company for local people 👍

Every time we come here they great us with the biggest smiles, everyone is happy here. And the food is amazing and once you go in you don’t want to leave 10/10.

The young lady serving was very kind and the sandwich was fresh and tasty, feels like a very clean place

Loverly café, wonderful food, lots to choose from, and really loverly staff, so polite and caring, bonus of tasty cakes, highly recommend this place.

Great bakery and cafe. Better sausage rolls than Gxxxs !!! Staff were so welcoming and we should support our local shops before we end up with a bland chain. Great selection of breakfast and fresh sandwich options.

What a wonderful cafe. Always a joy to come here. Thank you for the tastiest pies, coffees and cakes.

Had a beautiful fish special on Friday absolutely gorgeous fish came off the bones so easy flavours were amazing thank you to the lovely friendly staff also always very clean a pleasure to visit

Fantastic place for breakfast or lunch (eat in or take away). Brilliant, friendly service and staff. We live locally, have been coming here for years and will continue to do so!

I used this place regularly before the current owners took over, but not for coffee.... since the changes that have been introduced I'm in there every day I am at home, batista coffee fresh homemade food sandwiches and the baked on premises cakes and savory products now mean I don't have to go any further. Friendliest family and staff in the area..either side of Woodford station.

I have lived in Woodford for over 10 years and this has become a regular for me and my family. The staff are so friendly and so helpful when we bring our kids along - there is always a little biscuit treat which my niece loves! A couple of years ago I was pretty unwell and the staff were so kind in helping me get in and out the cafe and to make sure I was comfortable. The food is just as good as the excellent service! We often come for breakfast and lunch. The fry up is great but there are also lots of health options. That said, I cannot resist the wonderful cakes - the apple turnover is my fave! The cafe is really clean and tidy, and tables are cleared very quickly. Shepherds is a must for anyone living in the area!
