Shepherd's Cup roasts all its coffee in-house on Avenue U, from light to medium-dark profiles. The coffee is sourced through importers such as Coffee Hunter Project, from places including Haiti, Ethiopia, Brazil, Bolivia and Burundi. It has supplied Sheepshead Bay for five years as of September 2026.
The shop sits in the corner of a two-story brick building, with sidewalk tables on both street sides under a black awning. Inside, a brick wall with pendant lamps runs along the window seating, and a white espresso machine stands against wooden shelving behind the counter. It is a Christian organization, and the café offers an English program for immigrants, a private meeting room and books to read or buy.
