A sheet feeding device includes a supply tray having a support surface, a feed roller configured to feed a sheet in a feeding direction orthogonal to a widthwise direction of the support surface, and a shutter swingable between a regulation position and a retracted position. When in the regulation position, the shutter regulates a leading edge of a sheet inserted along the support surface, and when in the retracted position, the shutter does not interfere with advancement of the sheet. The shutter includes a plurality of first regulation surfaces arranged in an up-down direction and facing upstream in the feeding direction, and at least one second regulation surface located between adjacent first regulation surfaces and facing downward. A lower first regulation surface is positioned downstream of an upper first regulation surface, and the second regulation surface connects ends of the adjacent first regulation surfaces.
