What User likes about Shep's Tavern:
Very well known by locals as a favorite watering hole. Small hole in the wall that you would pass up if you didn't know it was there. Quiet, relaxing, and laid back. Typical bar good with sandwiches, pizzas, and chips. Try the garlic pizza. Its a middle aged to older crowd that is mellow. Marilyn (owner) and her bartenders always make you feel welcome and like family. Great place to stop by yourself or to meet family... View all feedback.

Shep's is an old time tavern. A great place to relax and have a beer.

A nice cold beer on tap, served in a frosty glass—it's the perfect refreshment after a workout outdoors. Life is simple and enjoyable.

This is a fantastic spot to relax, but I've noticed that the machines seem really tight; I've never seen anyone win here.

Charming little neighborhood bar. The bar food is great and made fresh to order.

Great place to take a bite and cold drink
