We had a Cherry turnover and Chocolate orange muffin with tea it came to just over £4.00. They were delicious. The staff and other customers made us welcome and we had a good laugh a bit irreverent at times. Would go back

We come here most weeks on our day off for breakfast and liked it a lot however recently the service in her is so bad…no hello when you walk in. The people who are supposed to be serving are too busy sat in tables slagging other staff off or moaning about who did the till last night because they didn’t plug the card reader in. You used to get table service, that seems to have stopped…not sure if that’s due to people leaving without paying so can probably understand that however there’s no signs telling you so we sat for ages expecting someone to come and serve us. In the current climate I’m not sure you can afford to give bad service like this. We’ll be looking for somewhere else to have breakfast in future which is a shame.

Been here a number of times. Great value for money, varied menu and plenty of food on the plate. Clean and inviting. Also a takeaway bakery.

We ordered food to be delivered and what came was not to the quality I remember, the sandwiches were a mix of stale bread and soggy edges! The egg custard was watery and tasted of lemon, we ended up not eating it! Save your money go elsewhere!

I Visit shephards once a week as my brother enjoys eating here on our days out. You have a Choice to eat in or takeaway freshly made sandwhiches, Bread, cakes and other nice treats. We almost always eat In. The ladies who serve us can be very Welcoming and friendly, they will happily answer any concerns you may have and help you bring your Drinks to the Table. But on some days we Won't even be acknowledged that we have entered the Cafe and can be Ignorant towards us and Genuinely seem to be in a Bad Mood, so the Customer service can be a Hit and miss sometimes. We ordered the Cheese and Onion Quiche and a Jacket Potato with Cheese, they were Freshly Pre-made so they Arrived at my Table before i even went to sit back Down after Ordering which was Brilliant. The Quiche was Delicous, Most cheese and Onion Quiches I have were very Bland but this was Filled with Taste. My other Gripe with Shephards is that the Cutlery, Mugs and Bowls often have Dried food still stuck to them, Two weeks ago I had Dry Mayonnaise in my Salad Bowl, I Dont Make a Huge fuss out of it as I just get another Bowl or Mug but it can be Off putting Sometimes. It would Be nice if they had new Menus on the Tables as the old ones are very Sticky and Not very Nice to Touch. I'd recommend the food as it is Delicious. They also Prepare Free Choice Hot meals such as Shepherds Pie, Beef and Gravy and Cauliflower Cheese with your Choice of Different Vegetables, Roast Potatoes and Sauces.I enjoy the Food very Muvh, Enough for me to look past the Issues I had mentioned and will Keep on Visiting.

Passed this bakery when shopping in Boston and popped in to get a loaf as they had several different sorts on display in the window.Good service and excellent flavour. Great selection of cakes and pastries too. Definitely worth seeking out rather than buying run of the mill from a supermarket.

Went here with the other half, her mother and Little Miss Fussy. The mother has MS and only one leg so is in a wheel chair and has very limited mobility. After trying to get into the seating area twice the staff came out and move tables (not bolted to the floor,just look it) to give her room. The mother and Miss Fussy had sandwiches (one made to order and not on the menu) the bread was fantastic (I tried) and the filling very generous. The other half had had Lasagne, chips and mixed veg and ham, egg and chips for myself.Not being chips fans both me and Fussy were surprised how good they were, everything that should be hot was. Very nice selection of sweet and savoury pastries and some great bread. Will be going back soon.

After returning after many years and having been pleasantly surprised we returned.. While the bakery part is still very good we won't be returning to cafe side!! Not impressed by the sanswiches/rolls. They need to start wrapping them up or covering up with glass domes to stop them drying out. We did not complain about them. It's a shame because they used to be very good!!

We were really looking forward to a meal and drink in this bakery but the staff all looked really unhappy and as if they would rather be somewhere else.Yes I am sure they would rather be somewhere else but at least pretend to be friendly.

We have visited this restaurant many times but only for coffee and cake. We decided to have a lunch there last week and thoroughly enjoyed the food. I had an omelette and salad , and my partner had cottage pie accompanied with a good selection of vegetables the price was very reasonable

After not visiting for many years, we decided to try the cafe and bakery again. . Pleasant surprise!! The staff (who had changed from the old regime) were very friendly and helpful. The coffee and filled baps were lovely and fresh. . And the bread bought from the bakery was very nice too. (pack up next day). We will be back!!

Come here a few times a year. The sandwiches are really fresh and nice. Lovely clean place to keep warm. The hot food always looks good and I believe the ingredients are sauced local. Will be back again.

I've been going here for years, and have never been disappointed. Their breads and cakes are of the highest order. The few weeks that they do hot cross buns around Easter are worth waiting for, superior in every way to their chain rivals on the high street.

We entered via a very tempting bakery and went to the rear . lots of helpful and pleasant staff in this family run business. very reasonable prices. I had fish and chips which were nice but not as goos as fish and chips from a fish shop! Ver pleasnt though . My wife had a ham salad. teh ham was amazing , thick cut proper roast ham . She then had access to a salad bar which was plentiful and fresh . She got the better deal by far , next time I will have a salad

Was very upset and disappointed today when we turned up for my husband’s birthday with friends who had travelled two hours to surprise him to be told we had no booking. This was made almost a month ago and I even rang last weekend to double check the time and was told there was no booking. After explaining I was reassured that all had been rectified and it was all sorted and ‘in the book’ Today they said we booked on 1st November but I wasn’t even around that day as I was in Lincoln at an appointment. The 1st doesn’t even sound like 10th and I rang to double check on 3rd so that was after the 1st. I even said it was Remembrance Sunday so there was no mistaking the date. Definitely their error even though I was made to feel I had lied as ‘nothing was in the book’ Just got told they were full and nothing they could do. Wouldn’t be quite so bad had I not double checked the booking last weekend and yet they still got it wrong. Thank you for spoiling my husbands birthday and the surprise of our friends joining us when she had to ring to tell us there was a problem and thank you for leaving us with no lunch as everywhere was booked.

We haven't been here for years but decided to try it again after our usual diner was closed and we were pleasantly surprised. Same friendly family service and same competitive pricing as we remembered. I had the eggs Benedict and they were nearly perfect, eggs not quite runny enough but the quantity, quality and pricing were right. My partner had a toasted tea cake and we both had drinks, mine a cappuccino and my partners a pot of tea for one that actually provided sufficient for three. We will be back again in the near future.

There's 3 chaps including myself that dine out and this is our new favourite place. The haddock is a generous portion, the chips are freshly cooked and a good plate full. Not keen on the curry but that's just my taste buds. Gravy is nice and we will be using again very soon. Lovely staff and the cleanliness of the establishment are worth a mention also. Any visitors to Boston for fresh fish and chips should visit here

Went this evening 10th June 23, we have friends coming over next week and was looking for places to visit with them. What an absolute s**t hole The beer tasted like vinegar, children in the bar, no evidence of food being served. The place was utterly filthy cobwebs stained brown they were that old. We should have taken heed before we went in, we commented on all the dead hanging baskets. Didn’t finish our drinks, husband left his because it was so bad. Avoid at all costs, I don’t understand why so many good reviews it’s awful, in fairness we didn’t sample the food. Woman behind the bar was pleasant enough.
