Cracker Barrel is one place that the food always seems pretty consistent in flavor. Which I like, at least the things I eat there. Service was super fast today, we were there around 10am on a Wednesday. Restaurant was clean, which is par in my opinion of most all Cracker Barrel's I've visited. read more

Came here not for the food but for the jewelry. Talk about a great bang for your buck. The shop is so cluttered I always just past through quickly. The service here was stellar while not standing over me annoyingly. The store was a normal CB and looked like a warehouse of random things threw up.... If you're willing to take your time to look around the chaos isnt bad and fits with the ambiance of a down south shop. I racked up on some quality jewelry. My total was $84 for quality 18karat plated, mother of pearl read more

Date: May 25, 2025 Time: 3pm (No wait time) Environment/Ambiance: Friendly and welcoming. Pretty spacious Food: Grandma's Sampler, Campfire Chicken Staff: Friendly (Waitress: Shelley) Drinks: Water Hi Everyone, Our waitress was very helpful and friendly. The pancakes were great. Eggs were pretty good. Bacon was crispy, how I like it. The grits were not good to me. Not a lot of flavor even with the cheese. I swapped them out for the fried apples and they were better some, still had the apple skin on them and one got stuck but I was able to get it out. The campfire chicken is worth trying. Overall, I still had a good service. Make sure to ask for Shelley if you can request her as your waitress. She really does her best at her job. read more

We have always loved Cracker Barrel but it has steadily gone downhill and tonight was the final straw. We waited over an hour for our food which was inedible. There were maybe 10 people in the entire restaurant. I complained...and I never complain...but a manager never came out. We literally both took two bites of our meal and said, let's go. No one offered to do anything to make us happy so they have lost two long time, loyal customers. The waitress was very sweet but I have no idea what was going on in the kitchen. We ordered very simple food and literally could not eat it after waiting an hour. I don't think this location will be open much longer which is sad. But do not waste your money. When I very nicely complained to the cashier she literally said...I don't have anything to do with what goes on back there. Well, sadly, she and everyone else there will be looking for new jobs sooner rather than later read more

We wanted to go to Cracker Barrel since we haven't been to one in a while we decided to check this one out. They have a very big parking lot so parking is not a problem at the time at least when we got there which was about 5:00 on a Saturday there's plenty of spots available. When going inside you enter there Country Store with lots of awesome things if you choose to purchase we decided to look at the items. Everything was very well placed and neat. We then walk through to the restaurant spot to have dinner. The hostess was very pleasant and friendly to us. There was no wait our waiter was also very attentive he said he's only been there for 2 weeks but with only having two weeks he was spot on with things. The place was also very well clean and taken care of. We decided to have breakfast for dinner. They have a menu that you can purchase breakfast anytime many different selections with options to choose from. But if you desire you could have a regular dinner or a sandwich. I decided to have a dish called Mama's pancakes I believe that what's it's called. It had three pancakes two eggs and a choice of bacon two pieces or two pieces of sausage. It was very delicious also they had an option that you can choose if you desire of sugar-free syrup which is what I picked. They also serve hot rolls or cornbread or if you want both they can do that as well complimentary. They have a Rewards program that you can earn points for money off your meal or even free appetizers or meals. I also decided to have the peach cobbler for dessert. Which was the worst peach cobbler I ever had but I cannot blame the waiter apparently there was a problem in the kitchen with things from the kitchen help and they apparently do not know what they're doing with this item besides that everything was very good and delicious. read more

The service was slow, never checked in until a manager told them too after I was waiting for my check. Then asked if I was finished, never offered me a box, and took my leftover pancakes... The brown sugar latte is terrible. read more

Dined at CB last night. It rates a 3 only because of the waitress. She was great. The restaurant was way, way too cold. The hostess was rude, felt like she didn't want anyone there. The food was mediocre. Plastic (like a straw cover type - except their straw covers are paper) in one of our side dishes. It was replaced with fresh bowl. Carrots were mush. Probably won't go back for a while. read more

This is usually my go-to breakfast place and I've never had a bad experience, however this morning was awful. The biscuits were burnt, it took over 45 minutes after the time we were quoted for pickup for the food to be ready, and to top it off: when we got it home and I was eating my scrambled eggs, I pulled several large pieces of egg shell out of my mouth, making them inedible I know it's Mother's Day and the restaurant was busy, but the food quality shouldn't suffer because of it. read more

We ate the traditional Easter Feast. Ham,Turkey, mashed potatoes n gravy, stuffing, green beans, cranberry and Pecan pie ala mode. The atmosphere was family oriented and friendly. The waitress was very attentive and polite. The manager stopped by to see if we were happy. The food was perfect and plentiful. We are glad we decided to eat there. read more

Ordered a BLT w/double bacon toasted bread, in the toaster not on the grill, no butter. 1st attempt comes out doesn't even look like a sandwich, hardly any bread 2nd attempt come out with 2 slices of bacon, then told that was double bacon but just threw on some extra to "fix" it 3rd attempt comes out with grilled bread on 1 side, other side of bread was not toasted at all. How hard is it to make a sandwich?? read more

We use to order from this restaurant all the time sadly the service has gotten so bad. If you call no one will answer the phone it just rings and rings. If you order online for pickup or curbside the order is always wrong and/or missing some of the order. I'm so tired of having to explain what is wrong and they (management) does not want to correct it or give me my money back for what I did not receive. I hope they realize that this is stealing when you don't get the items that you paid for. Now to the food - I ordered seasoned rice on one of the meals and it was so hard and brown that you could tell it had been sitting there all day. Is there no one there that is over seeing this food? I know that dhec requires food to be thrown away after a certain time but it was obvious that the rice was definitely overlooked. It was so bad that the rice was in precooked form then cooked form and then after sitting for hours went back to precooked form. Then we have the missing vegetables and some out of stock as written on the receipt but no one let me know when picking it up that I needed to pick another vegetable. And then a 20% tip is requested. Really? If you want a tip then my to go order needs to be correct. read more

After all the flap in the media about Cracker Barrel's logo change, we decided to be fair and give them a try again to decide for ourselves. Our experience was very disappointing! There were only 7 tables occupied, but service was super slow. Our simple breakfast order took almost 15 minutes to arrive. The grits were clumpy and lukewarm. Didn't even melt the butter. Hash browns were only like warm too. The biscuits were much smaller than in the past and the sawmill gravy was limited. We had to ask for an extra bowl. This visit confirmed to us that the stories of Cracker Barrel's decline are warranted. Nothing was better than mediocre now. Not worth returning anymore. They have gone over the cliff. read more

Sat down for lunch at 12:30 PM. Waited 15 minutes for a waitress and no one even looked our way. It wasn't that busy for a Saturday afternoon. We got up and left for another local restaurant where the service was much better. I won't go back to Irmo CB again. read more

You know the CEO wanted to change the sign and interior. After all that uproarhad settled, we decided to stop at CB and give it a try. Once again, the root of the drop in foot traffic is Service & Quality of food when served. We ordered grandma's sampler and biscuit & eggs with sausage and hash browns casserole. Here is my complaint, because pretty much all CB's will be a cold environment for the workers. 1. The scooped butter on pancakes are very chilled and does not melt when pancakes are not hot. 2. Hashbrown casserole was cold. 3. For $13.00 the sampler meat has gotten smaller. The bottom line for $30.00 for breakfast and both plates were cold, we just asked for to go plates and will heat up once we get home. The CEO needs to focus on delivering fresh HOT food to the table. If the cook puts it on counter and waitress doesn't get for 5 minutes or more, then your screwed. As much as I would like to support CB your making hard to justify the $$$ for a cold breakfast. There are tons of Waffle Houses for other options. read more

My family and I like this Cracker Barrel location. The service is sometimes iffy, although I know it's a tough place to staff, but it's never been downright horrible. The food is always hot, delicious, and cooked properly (nobody ever seems to get my over-medium eggs right!). I like the homey atmosphere here. It's very comfortable. read more

Went for carry out at Lake Murray Dr location. Hostess could not answer a question about if white or brown gravy came on steak. Waited 20 minutes for answer and to order. Waited 30 more minutes for food. Came out to tell me at 7:30pm pm they were out of mashed potatoes. I have been there when they were out of biscuits at 8:00pm, You gotta wonder about s restaurant running out of food and their signature biscuits. Maybe a reflection of the woke CEO. read more

No complaints from me when it comes to Cracker Barrel. We ordered through Doordash and it arrived to our hotel without any problem. The Mommas Breakfast I had ordered was very hot and absolutely delicious. The pancakes were light and fluffy with butter and syrup, the eggs were fried hard just how I like them, and the turkey sausage was chewy and still hot. I was very impressed with everything and I look forward to ordering through delivery in the future. read more

The Steak n' Egg Hashbrown Casserole (though not quite as stacked and impressive in appearance as its menu picture lol) was delicious!

Long wait for food but other than that, it was good! Dining area was tight. I would go back tho. Love the store area and variety of candy!

It was a little delay but the food was good I would come back thought it was 40mins but it was worth the wait

Food was good and came out in okay time from when we placed our order. The cornbread was terrible ! Usually I've gotten sweet and tasty cornbread but this one was thick and dry. Service was good and our waitress was very nice. It's your typical decor and trinkets to take home. It was super busy try to go earlier in the week to avoid crowds. read more

Came on December 31st around 2ish and the place was fairly busy, but nothing extreme. Took about 15 minutes to be seated at a table. My boyfriend and I both ordered pancakes. He also got eggs and bacon, which were super crispy and almost burnt. I added some chocolate chips into my pancakes. The pancakes were definitely the star of the show for our meal! The biscuits are really good too, especially hot out the oven. Our waiter was super sweet but the food took forever to come out even though almost everyone was gone by that point. Food was really good though and inexpensive! Price: really good, maybe spent $15-$20 on a two person meal Customer Service: super sweet server Wait time: 20 minutes but we came on a busy day in the morning Food time; took forever to come out probably close to 30 minutes read more

I was staying at the Hyatt by this location, and a good ole home cooked dinner sounded great. I ordered takeout, so when I got back to my room, I was very pleased with my meal. Ordered meatloaf with a loaded potato and corn. Also a salad with a large sweet tea. Warm homemade biscuits were also included. Many times when you order takeout, somethings missing, but not with my order. Everything was very good tasting and hot, with the exception of my sweet tea and my salad lol. The salad was very fresh and quite large. The meatloaf, corn and loaded potatoes was great tasting and very large portions. Like most Cracker Barrel's I would definitely go back. read more

My family of 4 plus a five year old went to supper on 5/19/25. Few patrons there and still a 15 minute wait... no biggie but after we were seated and orders taken, they were out of what I wanted (Campfire Chicken) so I ordered something else (Campfire Roast Beef). Meanwhile my family's food came out and it was cold. By this time we had been there an hour. They were out of the second thing I ordered so I ordered something else. signature chicken sandwich....It was dry and tasteless but I did have the Nashville Hot sauce to dip it in.....WOW was it salty so I asked for another sauce but nothing could salvage that sandwich. By this time we had been there almost two hours. I complained to the manager and he really couldn't have cared less. He said "you could have told your server" and I said "really?? and stay here another 45 minutes waiting on my meal". I told him the food was marginal at best and that the other Cracker Barrel had really gone down hill and I was sorry to say that this one had too." To top it all off I think EVERY empty table had dirty dishes. read more

Forty minutes waiting for a takeout order only to be told they don't have meatloaf today. Q#1- it took you forty minutes to realize you didn't have product? Q#2- if I hadn't inquired about our order how long were you going to wait to tell us you couldn't make our meals? read more

I had been seeing a decline at this particular place over the last year or so. Servers didn't seem to stay there long and meals served weren't consistently good. I gave up going for awhile and then just last week decided to go back. Well I did ask not to be sat with the same server who was very nice to us but proceeded to not deliver our order timely. Breakfast took 2 full hours and the toast came after the bill. Anyway, on this visit I was sat with a most efficient server, Taylor and she and the cooking staff did an outstanding job. Kudos to them and hopefully CB will hire, train and support their front line staffing to knock their customers experiences out of the park! read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Grandmas Breakfast Sampler - Southern Near Me - Irmo, South Carolina

Bad experience at Cracker Barrel #0448, 2300 LeGrand Rd., Columbia, SC, off I-77 just north of the I-20 interchange, 7/20/23. For over 40 years, when on the road, I've looked to Cracker Barrels along the highway for solid comfort food on long trips. For the last several years, though, food quality, quantity, and service seem to have gone downhill. Nevertheless, this Thursday, I was hungry, on a 7-hr drive, and coming up on the food desert of the I-20 stretch from Columbia to Augusta. So I pulled off I-77 in SC just before getting onto I-20 to head home to Georgia. The food and service were so poor I hope I never forget not to try this one again, and possibly not any more Cracker Barrels. It was midafternoon and only four tables were occupied as the hostess escorted me in. I asked for one of the empty tables by the window, because I wanted to read during lunch and wanted good light and table top space for an open book beside my plate. She told me she was sorry, she had to seat me according to the servers' table assignments. She put me at a dinky table in the center of the room. I started to read while waiting for my server. It took her so long to come, I completed an entire chapter of a novel (14 pages) and she still hadn't come. I was craning my neck to look toward the kitchen to see if anyone on the wait-staff was working. Just as I was thinking of going back to the hostess station to tell her "Nobody seems to be working my section of the dining room today," a server appeared. She took my order, brought water and coffee, and disappeared again. The flatware pack contained only a knife and fork, no spoon. I turned around to look for my server again but she was nowhere in sight. You'd think when serving coffee, they'd bring a spoon with it, right? I guess not. The alternatives for stirring my coffee seemed to be my fork, my knife, or my finger. I chose the knife. I went back to reading, my stomach rumbling during another prolonged wait, and finally she appeared with my plate of roast beef and gravy, hashbrown casserole, fried apples, and cornbread. The casserole and apples struck me as tiny servings compared to past years. Even slathered with butter, the cornbread was so dry that after choking down half a muffin of desiccated crumbs, I didn't want to try any more. But worst of all, the roast beef was so overpoweringly salty it was barely edible. I ate just enough to not feel hungry anymore and left about half of it on my plate. Sad. The CB roast beef used to be one of my favorite highway comfort foods. Scratched off my list now, along with another long-time favorite, the chicken and dumplings (which no longer has much evidence of chicken in it--just a bowl of spongy dough-balls in gravy the last few times I tried it). My server was pleasant (if inattentive), but the best tasting part of my meal was the water. (I'll give second place to the apples, I suppose, but they were scanty.) I'll be looking harder for alternatives to Cracker Barrel the next time I make this trip. Convenience store carry-out would be a lot better. Some of my friends would say "That's what you get for going to a Cracker Barrel in the first place." Sadly, I've started to think they may be right. read more

Standard Cracker Barrel. Packed house, quick seating, delish biscuits and gravy, full bellies. We popped in for lunch on Election Day. I was surprised at how packed the place was, but our service was exceptional. Kiddos had pancakes and chocolate milk. I had one of the breakfast choices with scrambled eggs, grits, biscuits and gravy (my fav!), two slices of ham (a little over cooked) and hash brown casserole. read more
