Our Chef & Management

John Sheppard

Owner

John Sheppard is a third generation bar and restaurant owner. Beginning with his grandfather, the Sheppard’s owned Bridgeway, which is now Fireside Tavern, located at 6th and Oregon in South Philadelphia, this is where the Sheppard hospitality legacy began. Taking the torch, John’s parents opened and still operate Dee’s Place, located at 2nd and Greenwich in South Philadelphia and Harry the Hats Club in North Wildwood, which is now Keenan’s Irish Pub. After spending his adolescent years working in his family’s bars, John moved down to Florida for corporate training and quickly moved up the corporate ladder at Confetti’s Nightclub in Ft. Lauderdale, starting as a doorman and moving step by step into management. From Confetti’s, John was asked by restaurateur Jack Penrod to help open and run his new nightclub, Penrod’s Beach Club. Which has since been renamed Nikki Beach and has several different locations around the world. With all of the knowledge and experience gained in Florida, John decided to get back to his roots and move back to South Philadelphia and the Jersey Store where he has most recently opened his newest project, Cattle N Clover – A steakhouse with an Irish soul.
