    Service is great, fast and friendly! I was pleasantly surprised by the deliciousness of the pancakes. The plates look a little sad in regard to the bacon and eggs. But can't complain it was a decent meal and a decent price. If you're looking for a new place to go for breakfast, give Cracker Barrel a try and walk off your meal after in their little store!

    This place never fails to make me happy. The food is amazing, whether you choose breakfast option or entrees for a lunch or dinner. Once you have enjoyed a satisfying meal, you can explore their gift shop. You will be sure to find something special for yourself or a loved one. The service and food were both excellent. The interior decor is fascinating, with a unique display of musical instruments, game pieces, tools and vintage photographs.

    Grandpa's Country Fried Breakfast

    So good , better than we anticipated. Great friendly service lots of great options. It was our anniversary they gave us a chocolate dessert! Wish we had one in our area, they closed the one in Santa Maria ‍ it was so good and we took two dinners to go , fried chicken w Mac n cheese. Nice country interior design.

    I have this habit of judging a breakfast place based on their coffee and it's very rare that I'm wrong. This time, I was wrong. We ordered the grandma sampler - The pancakes were fluffy, the eggs cooked as ordered, and the hash brown casserole has to be one of the best sides I've ever had! The portions are huge, this alone fed 2 people. But again, the coffee was a let down, just wasn't strong enough. And the sausage patty was super dry and tough, didn't care for that. Our server was attentive and personable, but not overbearing and the restaurant itself was very homey. The shopping g part of the store was not what I expected, but it had a nice variety. Would definitely come back to try their dinner menu.

    I love the atmosphere! It was so bright and open. I found it entertaining to look at the score, but not overwhelming. Our server Scarlett was helpful and friendly. The fried pickles weren't as good as I would have liked, because the batter was too thick, but my 11 thought they were great! They were brought out quickly. The dinner was as well. We all liked the biscuits, nice and buttery. The batter on the okra was much lighter than the pickles and much better! My burger patty really needed some seasoning as did the grits and fries. Hubby's steak was season well. I really want to like the food much more than I do! Service, atmosphere and cleanliness were so on point! The food is just not that great.

    This was our first ever time at CnB and it was overall good. Service was nice - and quick - but they didn't have soup (any soup) and also no Apple Strudel! Not something I'd consider normal given it was a Saturday night and their menu is not that extensive.

    Panvakes, over medium eggs and hash browns

    Man, I use to eat here back in the day. I gotta say that this place is going down hill. The "buttermilk pancakes" were so dry and the hash browns were barely cooked. Our server was ok, nothing spectacular. Cracker Barrel is just a nostalgic gift shop. I will not go back for breakfast. I'll try their dinner menu next

    Two choice sampler - loaded mash, dried okra, meatloaf and home style chicken
    Deandra V.

    Everything that you would expect. Comfort food, quality service and a cozy dine in experience. Got the sampler - two choice. More than enough food to feed just one person.

    Maya greeted us with a smile and willing to assist. The biscuits and cornbread were delicious. The catfish was tasty and delicious. The two sides of rice and coleslaw were average. The rice was hard to chew and the coleslaw did not taste fresh. The meatloaf was burnt on the edges but the mashed potato and gravy with corn was just right. The music was great stuff. We went during an off time so the music column was perfect. We were rocking to the music.

    The food came out fast the server was kind and attentive. As much as she could be, she seemed pretty busy. Although there were things I was impressed with such as their cool Shop at the entrance. And the kind service. The food was unfortunately not great. We order a campfire dinner which is good for two, the chicken was tender but nothing great. We also ordered a chicken sandwich with fries also not great. But would honestly come back for the shop!

    Sinny S.

    Took a long time for our food to come out. We ordered 4 things altogether. They biscuits and corn bread (complimentary) were cold and hard. The bacon in the salad was bad. The turkey was warm. The fried chicken was warm. I guess the food was ready, but our waitress didn't bother to check. She even asked, "Y'all didn't get your food yet?!" Well, unless I can go to the kitchen myself. Anyhow, this location is a 1 star.

    Never opens on time

    I cant stay mad at Cracker Barrel. I need them more than they need me they reached out right away when they were closed and made things right! Thank you CB!

I ordered the bbq platter and let me tell you...FIRE! 2 ribs, 2 hot links, 2 pieces of chicken ( I went with the thighs) and mashed papas & macaroni and cheese. My hubby ordered the ox tails with rice and gravy & greens. Amazing as well! Side of chili beans cus I had to try and glad I did. Bombtastic! Best peach cobbler in town! And Pepsi products!

KYRA Let us taste the sweet tea before I got "the sugar" getting a whole glass. And I'm glad she did it is traditionally Southern sweetened tea which would have gave me a problem drinking that. My friend opted for the Swwweeeeeet tea and I opted regular tea with lemon. The GRUB : They have a good southern menu and they have very attentive staff today we got the" Surf and Cluckers" Meal w/catfish, chicken thigh, chicken breast, 5 shrimp, sweet potatoes, Mac and cheese and black eyed peas and Cornbread... and I loved every bit of it the catfish 5/5 stars was tasty well cooked and seasoned just right the chicken breast was filleted (too thin for my liking) 4/5 stars, cooked in a very good batter along with the chicken thigh 5/5 stars the five shrimp 5/5 stars were not jumbo shrimp but we're good enough to satisfy and tasted the same way the catfish tasted in the cornmeal batter, the sweet potatoes were very good and I was surprised at how well they tasted the 5/5 stars Black Eyed Peas where soft and well seasoned 5/5 stars, cornbread was good but colder than I would have liked as it didn't melt the butter 3/5 stars while the macaroni and cheese was nothing to rave about 2/5 stars., honestly for the price it was about as much food as I would have eaten if I went to Hodels for about the same total price for 2 people, however if I had this meal anywhere else outside of Bakersfield it would have cost me approximately twice as much..Great deal for the price. Quick review of Mom's house and I was not disappointed. GIVE THEM A TRY , I've been hesitant on going here since the original owner passed away and it was renamed Mom's House, so my friend who is a sunday regular, offered to buy my lunch here, so what the heck why not just go glad we went ,well try to take the family one day.

We had empenadas, jerk chicken, arepas, fried shrimp, and a side of beans with plantains. It was all pretty good, but nothing really blew me away. I really like the jerk sauce on the chicken, but the chicken itself was just a slow cooked breast without much flavor or texture. The arepas were just cornmeal and cheese, without any of the other ingredients I've usually seen in the past (although they did come with a tasty green salsa). I think my favorite item was the salt and pepper shrimp, which had a really good flavor. Plantains and beans are also delicious. There were a few other dishes we wanted to try, such as the ceviche, but unfortunately they were out of it that night. I would come back again to try some other dishes in the future.

We kicked things off with their signature mojitos, a bargain at just $9 each. Ordered tapas-style and were blown away by the delicious beef empanadas (3), served with a rich, succulent dipping sauce carrying subtle hints of clove and nutmeg. The sweet potato fries arrived hot, crispy, and paired with a spicy sauce that was pure YUM. The complimentary bread tasted just like it came fresh from our local Pyrenees Bakery. For the finale, we enjoyed the grilled sea bass, served atop a flavorful onion-tomato medley of pure yumminess, complete with half a dozen shrimp. A fantastic finish to a memorable meal.

After a long day on the road, a good steak sounded perfect, so we decided to try Hungry Hunter. They told us it would be a 10-15 minute wait, so I grabbed a drink at the bar and some water for my girlfriend. By the time I walked back--maybe five minutes--they were already ready to seat us. Great start. We ordered steaks with asparagus, and the food absolutely hit the spot. Tender, flavorful, cooked exactly right. But what really made the night memorable was our server, Angelis. She was an absolute pleasure--warm, upbeat, and genuinely positive in a way that lifted the whole experience. After a long day of driving, her energy made dinner feel like a treat instead of just a pit stop. Great food, great service, and a huge thank‑you to Angelis for making our night fabulous.

The rib was probably the best of the meats. The trip was okay. The food is buffet food so I don't have really high expectations. For a traditional family style buffet I would give the a 3.5 on the food. They had a great selection on salads made in house. The meat guy recommended the broccoli salad and I tried it. It was pretty good. It's been at least 15 years since I've had broccoli salad. That did not disappoint. My wife liked the good variety and selection, and the fried chicken was pretty good. My son liked the apple cobbler and their homemade peanut butter cookies. The service was exceptional. Everyone working there was pleasant and friendly. 5 of 5 for service. The atmosphere, the design and theme was very appropriate, although dated it is still very welcoming and appropriate for the venue. With that being said, the carpet was filthy and the upholstery was warn and old. It looks dated and tired. They can keep the overall theme and look, but give the restaurant an updated facelift of sorts. The seasonal decorations were nice. The store gift shop sold miscellaneous items including some of their baked goods, so that was cool. The lighting needs to be updated. That would really enhance their atmosphere. The bathrooms. You can learn a lot about a place from the bathroom. These weren't filthy per se but the floors were pretty nasty. It always grosses me out when my shoes stick to the tiles. The fixtures were on par with a lot of the restaurant, old, dated, and tired. Formica countertops? A lot of these design elements just need to be polished up. I think this is a great part of the Bakersfield community, but I think it's been a bit neglected. It's probably family owned for a while and the kids or whatever have gotten complacent with the business. I'm not saying it is poorly ran and the positive experience with their staff can attest to that. But they can use some freshening up. Tip to owner, I didn't see any take out happening during my visit but in today's food retail market, take out is HUGE! Especially with the Holiday season and football games etc. I have a feeling you are missing out on some of your local market. Reach out if you want a more detailed discussion. Bakersfield is poised to grow and i hope that you are poised to grow as a local business as well. I'm glad we stopped by on our way back to Sacramento.
