Before the pandemic this was one of my favorite bars in the area. Since then quality has plummeted and prices have soared. They ditched one of their best menu items (the sliders) and changed their fries from steak fries to shoestring fries, which aren’t good at all.
They used to host great beer events and tap takeovers with some of the best Jersey breweries and other fun events on a regular basis. These days, it’s just another bland uptown Hoboken bar. With that being said, you could certainly do worse if you’re in the area and need a drink a decent meal.

Had an amazing 30th birthday party here! The trays of food we ordered for our 35 guests was delicious. We had our own space to hang out and the staff was extremely attentive. Shout out to Sebastian for helping us with everything and even cutting up the cake to be served! Would highly recommend throwing parties here!

Ordered a steak dinner appetizers and drinks. This restaurant does not use DoorDash but some other relay service. My food was delivered not using a hit bag. ZERO flatware to eat a 109 dollar meal in my hotel. Zero drinks. Rip off do not order from here

The Shepherd and the Knucklehead is a favorite every time we visit Jersey. They have a full and delicious menu, I would have taken photos, but I ate my food before I could!
The atmosphere is so fantastic, and I cannot say enough about the staff. They are all so kind and helpful. I will continue to recommend them again and again! Thank you for a great time every time!

A long overdue review but — My husband and I had our combined 30th bday celebration with our friends here last year and everyone had a such a fantastic time. Food and drinks were great and Joe, Sebastian, the staff that day made hosting the event easy and seamless! Would recommend!
