Was very surprised by food quality this visit. It was overcooked, dry, tasteless and tepid when served. Spinach and feta omlette was so dry and overcooked - had to pull out long, chewy, tough pieces of spinach. How does feta stay dry in an omlette? Same for overcooked potatoes. Toast was fine. Decafe coffee was tepid and watery. Portions are generous, but only good if eatable. Waitress was nice and attentive and best part of meal.

When we were in the process of losing our soul mate of a dog to lung cancer they would go above and beyond for our random orders and would always try to bring a smile to our face when we would pick it up. She wouldn't eat so we would call & ask for plain unseasoned grilled chicken or just bacon or whatever it was they always helped us out. Her last meal was bacon on the beach (her favorite place). Thank you for the amazing service.

Ya know, I once navigated to this place on accident before? Yeah. Still not sure what my GPS was…read moredoing that day. Because I normally go to the one in Salem. But on this day, I thought to myself, "Self, I really hate making that busy-as-hell left turn on South Broadway in Salem. What if we took a journey to the Andover location instead?" And so it was. I enter this cozy little restaurant carefully tucked against a slightly submerged parking garage. Although, I probably shouldn't say "little" because the interior was noticeably larger than its Salem counterpart. It's also noisy AF in there when it gets busier than a New York subway. So naturally, I ordered my usual to-go (a Country Classic with an extra egg and hashbrowns for those who don't know). Only it wasn't *quite* ready on time. Which, to be fair, is kind of a minor point. Thing is, they have to shout your name whenever your order is finally ready. This in and of itself can prove to be quite the challenge when bellowing atop the already roaring crowd of customers impeding the otherwise accessible pickup shelves. I'll do my best to describe the interior since I wasn't really able to take pictures. But try to imagine an L-shaped dining area with the longest part hosting a row of countertop seats facing the windows. Beyond that sits a rather modest dining area with a few more tables. Next to that sits the gender neutral restrooms. It's strange and cramp, particularly when the place is packed tighter than a sardine can. Sufficed to say, I'm not much a fan of the interior design here. Being the partial recluse that I am, I offer the following best practice for a place so riotous: mobile order that shiz, cuh! Seriously. I had to put in my noise cancelling earbuds to appease my misophonia. The good news is....the food is still awesome. The eggs? Creamier than crème fraîche. Taters? Eh, I don't why...but these seemed way more seasoned the very first time I tried them. Fortunately, they actually pair rather well with their refined version of ketchup. The bacon? Well...let's just say I wish it were served well done. Not sure if I'm able to request that. But I'll scope out my options next time and get back to you all. That's it though. Nice place, WAY easier to get to than its Salem counterpart, but a bit too cramp and noisy for my taste which means....I'll likely ever dine in here. It's all good though, because I'm still giving Crack'd Kitchen & Coffee in Andover 4 Country Classics with all the fixins out of 5.

First off, there's a shop attached to it that you have go through to get to the restaurant. Lots of random but fun things to look at including old school candy and glass bottles soda including fun flavors like maple root beer. Also some Southern flair with tiny little cowboy boots for kids. We dropped off our name to queue for a table and the servers at the hostess stand were friendly. When we got called in, our server was Damian (not sure of spelling) and so friendly! We didn't get rushed at all as our last friend arrived and we caught up a bit before ordering. Damian was able to give recommendations and provided timely updates while apologizing for delays given the busy kitchen. We didn't mind and had our cups full and enjoyed ourselves. I ordered the honey fried chicken and the chicken was so juicy and well fried. I ordered a side of fried okra and mac n cheese. The mac n cheese was all right but I enjoyed the fried okra! I just wish there were a lot more of them. Anyways, would come back again for sure and Damian was awesome...shoutout for the great and friendly service!
