    It had been a long time since I'd been to this or any other Cracker Barrel restaurants. It's always been one of my favourites since childhood and they still do a lot of those same things that I loved as a kid. They still have the store at the front of the restaurant with all sorts of cool merchandise. Once you get past that we got a nice seat not far from the working fireplace which makes it feel like home for sure. They have modified their menu over the years but they still have all of the old favourites like chicken and dumplings and some the hashbrown casserole. I do wish they would bring back their beef stew but that's been gone for a long time. On this occasion I got the Chicken Fried Chicken which was their crispy homestyle fried chicken covered with sawmill gravy. Their white gravy is some of the very best that I know of and was absolutely delicious on top of the fried chicken. I got corn, steak fries, and extra biscuits for my sides. The corn was corn, the steak fries were excellent, and I absolutely LOVE Cracker Barrel biscuits. Put it all together and it was a tremendous brunch. The service was excellent, the restaurant made it feel like home, and the food was excellent. We couldn't ask for anything else.

    Well first of all Christmas is happening at Cracker Barrel. The store is filled with Christmas trees and decorations. Very nice Now the restaurant part. I was seated right away. My server was Michelle. Very nice and sweet. I ordered the veggie platter with corn green beans fried okra hash brown casserole (my favorite) and biscuits. Very yummy

    They didn't answer their phone after 5 minutes so we tried the mobile app. One screen said the food would be ready at 5PM while another said 4PM. Once we arrived, we noticed that the pick-up area doesn't even have warmers. Registers weren't even working and it seemed very chaotic. Also, the corn bread muffins tastes terrible.

    I've never been to a cracker barrel until now. Being from California, there weren't any so apparently this place is like a big deal. Lol. There's a lot going on at the entrance because it's a gift shop and I have to say that's a really interesting setup. I do love the fact that they have a roaring fireplace going in the middle of the restaurant and it gives such a nice cozy vibe. The wait wasn't too long for a Sunday and we got a seat probably within 10 minutes. The staff were really friendly and informative - if we had any questions on the menu. Since this was my first time, I went big! Lol I ordered the grandpa's country fried breakfast which included a country-fried steak, two eggs, biscuits and gravy, and the potato hash casserole. To be honest I didn't have an expectation on the potato hash casserole, but holy crap that tasted so amazing. Everything was super good and I honestly can't believe I ate the entire thing. I definitely would recommend coming here for breakfast.

    Fried chicken dinner.

    Ordered the Fried Chicken Dinner which came out overcooked. The kitchen said is the new batter!! speechless. Buyer beware!! Server was awesome! The quality of this food is poor!

It comes with a bread option, so I went for one of their in-house biscuits with a side of gravy. The onions were a fine dice and well sautéed in my omelette, which was perfect! And the biscuit was just as yummy as I remembered. Good things to note: You pay at the table, with the option to do tap/Apple pay , which I greatly appreciate. Don't forget to get a couple of biscuits to take home and later enjoy with butter and honey.

My first visit was a takeout order of breakfast tacos that were pretty tasty. Based on that, I was hopeful for a good dine-in experience when I stopped by again recently with my mom for a late breakfast. This is a counter-service spot where you order at the register, grab a number, and seat yourself while they bring the food out. We arrived around 10 AM and it was packed. Despite the crowd, the line moved quickly, but that's where the efficiency ended. Most of the open tables were dirty, so we had to clean one ourselves with napkins. Not ideal. Then came the confusion around drinks. We never received cups after ordering -- despite asking three separate times. First, we were told the cups would come out with our food. When they didn't, we asked the food runner, who said he'd check on it but just disappeared into the kitchen. Finally, we had to go back to the counter a third time just to get cups for the fountain machine. That's a lot of back and forth for something basic. When the food finally arrived, it was lukewarm at best. I ordered two bacon breakfast tacos and a side of smashed potatoes. The tortillas were so hard they were practically inedible -- I ended up tearing pieces off and eating just the egg, bacon, and cheese filling. The potatoes were bland and also cold, like they'd been sitting out too long. It's disappointing because my first experience was solid. I'm hoping this was just an off day, but for nearly $40, this meal didn't feel worth it. The staff seemed overwhelmed and stretched thin, with just a handful of employees trying to juggle too many tasks during a rush. Cleanliness, service, and food temperature all suffered as a result. For now, this location won't be high on my list to return to. There are better breakfast spots in town that don't come with this much hassle.

(I believe her name was Sidney?). Foods must to come out together. Our family had 2 orders of avocado toast. One arrived first thing, the other was minutes after all food was served. (My wife's was last) As a large profitable franchise, I'd focus on the layout. The front wait area is not comfortable, walking through the dining room has no flow, families are smashed and sat into uncomfortable booths, tables, with no room to walk around when chairs have guests pulled out from tables and enjoying themselves. We were trying to navigate our son's wheelchair to our seat. I'd strongly advised removing front entry checkout. Has no reason whatsoever in today's world. Nothing is efficient. Clogging, bogging, and shuffling out of the way for checkout, arrivals, and yelling party names. (Experience) It can leave a last tarnished memory when existing the restaurant.

This is basically bar food in an expensive looking setting. We both wanted to order their chicken wings, but were told that they only had 10 wings left. Which was puzzling since the place was relatively empty. And speaking of that, we made a reservation online thinking the place would be hopping for dinner. Not so much. I had the taco el pastor. It was good but was basically pulled pork on a corn tortilla with bbq sauce. I also ordered the Brussel sprouts which would have been really good if they weren't drowning in white sauce. I recommend asking for all sauces on the side, btw. TVs on the wall all around the dining room are tuned into blooper reels and trivia.

Tucked away in Villa Hills, it has quickly established itself as a "hidden gem" that defies traditional categorization--part sophisticated lounge, part high-end bistro, and part soulful community hub. The design of Sanctuary Social is its first masterstroke. It captures the paradox of being "upscale-casual"; you'll find plush velvet sofas and warm, modern lighting that evoke a high-end city lounge, yet the energy remains as approachable as a favorite dive bar. The addition of live music on the weekends elevates the space from a mere eatery to a destination, providing a vibrant backdrop that feels both intimate and celebratory. It is a "sanctuary" in the truest sense--a place to disappear into for a few hours. The kitchen leans into "Elevated American" with a focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients and shareable plates that encourage conversation. Small Plates & Boards: The Artisan Meat and Cheese Board is a standout, curated with a level of intentionality often reserved for dedicated charcuterie houses. For a more modern bite, the Fresh Tomato Bruschetta with whipped burrata is a bright, creamy essential. The "Handhelds": The Wagyu Brisket Sammie and Wagyu Brisket Elote Tacos showcase the kitchen's ability to take casual comfort food and apply premium techniques. The brisket is consistently tender, balanced by the acidity and creaminess of the elote corn salsa. Craft Cocktails & Mocktails: The bar program is formidable. Their seasonal cocktails (like the Blackberry 75) are balanced and inventive. For those seeking non-alcoholic options, the Blackberry Lemonade Spritz or the Jalapeño Lemonade offers a complex profile that far exceeds standard soda fare. Sanctuary Social is the kind of place that Northern Kentucky has been craving: a spot that respects the craft of food and drink without the stiffness of formal dining. It's a "destination" restaurant hidden in plain sight, offering A1 surroundings and a menu that hits its mark with precision. If you haven't made the drive yet, you are indeed missing out on one of the region's most compelling new additions.
