    Chicken Tenders with Hash Brown Casserole
    John G.

    First visit to this Cracker Barrel! It's sett up like most others with the Country Store and since we're in MD their products! We ordered Chicken & Dumplings sides were Turnip Greens & Fried Apples and the wife ordered Chicken Tenders with a side of Dumplings & Hash Brown Casserole Chicken & Dumplings are always good as is their Turnip Greens the fried apples made for alight desert we were impressed with the amount and size of Chicken Tenders but they weren't actually tasty the Hash Brown casserole was salty and on the cool side( breakfast leftovers?) Naiya our server was excellent very pleasant and accommodating she did a great jo

    We decided to stop here for breakfast. This was my first visit to Cracker Barrel. The main entrance enters into the retail store. We were seated immediately in the main dining area. The decor was very interesting, old photos, instruments, a deer head, even a gun. We placed our order with the waitress. I ordered the grandma's sampler breakfast with French toast, plain hashbrowns, Impossible vegetarian sausage and eggs. My bf ordered French toast and spicy chicken sausage with a side of fruit. Overall, the food was okay; just a basic breakfast meal. There's room for improvement on the service and the food.

    I arrived Tuesday evening around 6:30 and had no trouble finding a seat. The restaurant was 1/3 full and seemed well maintained. The tables were cleared in a timely manner and the floors were swept. I ordered the southern fried chicken with fried apples and okra, hash brown casserole tots, and a peach tea. The peach tea was sweet, with a candy-peach artificial taste, but still refreshing. The tots were slightly crispy, I wish they were crispier. This was served with thick cut bacon bits that had a nice smoky flavor. The whole dish quickly left an old-oily taste in my mouth though. The biggest offender had to be the southern fried chicken. I've had better chicken at Popeyes. The pieces were small, barely crispy, and very dry. Hardly any seasoning at all. The fried okra was alright, and the fried apples were good as always.

    For anyone that knows me, they all understand that I have serious love for Cracker Barrel! I beyond excited to dine at Cracker Barrel while passing through on our way to NY. With that being said, I walked in feeling elated and left feeling dejected. Let's start with the positives! Cracker Barrel is one of those country chain restaurants that is known for its cute country decor inside and out. The exterior has the wood panels and anorak chairs on the porch. Walk inside and you'll see the cutest country store in town! They have some kitchen accessories, toys, Americana decor, clothes, and candy/beverages for the road. When we walked inside, there were 2 ladies working at the cash register. They assisted people as they paid for their meals and souvenirs, but they never signaled for a hostess to help the rest of us. We all stood around at the hostess' booth for about 10 minutes. No one came to assist us. The lady behind me walked into the dining room and let them know that she had a line of people waiting to be seated. They had cleaned off tables, but we were still standing around trying to figure out what was going on. Finally, they seated us and we were already frustrated. But that was done and over with. It was time to order our food! I ordered the fried shrimp meal with a side of mac n cheese and mashed potatoes. The meal already came with biscuits, so I was happy. Their biscuits are usually pretty good, so I was ready to eat! The biscuits didn't taste the same. They were super dry and they didn't have the same taste or texture that they've had in the past. I am convinced that those country fried shrimp pieces were cooked in the same coating that they use for chicken. It was super bland! The mashed potatoes didn't taste as fresh as they usually do. The meal was nowhere near what we've had in the past. Keep in mind that I LOVE Cracker Barrel and we've been to multiple locators across the US. So, this was nowhere near what we're used to when we dine at their restaurants. Also, when I got up to wash my hands in the restroom, there was another line of people waiting to be seated. One gentleman said that he'd been waiting so long. If they didn't acknowledge them and attempt to seat them that they were leaving. There were plenty of empty tables that were cleaned off when I went back into the dining room. Yet again, the hostess was nowhere to be found. For what it's worth, the decor gives the feel of a true Cracker Barrel restaurant. The service is incredibly slow and for the record, it wasn't even busy. The food was bland and service was slow. It didn't seem like the place was understaffed, so I really don't know what the problem was. Nevertheless, I'm going to have to agreed with other Yelpers. They really could do better and they have a lot of work to do to keep their customers happy!

    Went twice to this location. First time for dinner and they had no fried food because the fryer was down. No fried chicken at a Cracker Barrel? I went back for breakfast for our second visit and the service was extremely slow, it was busy so I can expect some wait time but 45 minutes after being sat at the table is a bit extreme! And the worst part was that after the wait, the food was cold when it came out....never returning.

    Abby at the register, was so nice and polite. She was warm and welcoming. The food was good. I love pancakes with crispy edges. New and improved menu, with exciting new recipes and they now serve mimosas, wine and beer. A total upgrade. I love the store, it makes the ambiance so unique and appealing with its bright colors and scenery.

    This remains my favorite place for family breakfast. They have really good lunch and dinner too, but in my head Cracker Barrel means breakfast. If there was one criticism that could be improved, it's that the tables here wobble horribly. At table I'm currently sitting, you can see a 1 inch gap between the foot of the table and the floor. That's enough to splash drinks around and annoy customers during the entire meal. I can see another table leg that has literally a half inch of napkins wedged under one of the seat. Clearly, this is a problem that everyone here is aware of. That's probably just something that I'm peculiar about though. It doesn't stop me from coming back.

    I don't write reviews lightly, but what happened at Willy's has crossed every line of safety,…read moreprofessionalism, and basic human decency. My fiancé and I have supported this local spot for years. It used to be a reliable go-to. But over time, something shifted--and now I know exactly what it is: the cook, Laura. On 11/28, I ordered steak and eggs. What I was served was not just unappetizing--it was dangerous. The steak smelled rancid, oozed a grayish liquid, and had visible discoloration. We flagged it immediately. Today, we returned to follow up and were horrified to learn that Laura had been explicitly told not to use those steaks because they were spoiled--and she served them anyway. Let that sink in. Why wasn't the meat discarded? Why did she knowingly serve it? Is she untrained, negligent, or something worse? And more importantly--why is she still employed? This isn't an isolated incident. Months ago, I stopped in for a quick lunch and became violently ill within the hour. I had to pull over to vomit and missed an important business meeting. I suspected something was off then, and from that point on, I would call ahead to make sure Laura wasn't cooking. Recently, I gave her the benefit of the doubt. That was a mistake. There's a level of disregard here that feels personal. When I asked to speak with her after learning about the spoiled meat, the staff refused and smirked like it was a joke. It's not. This could have led to hospitalization--or worse. This is a public health issue. Laura's actions were reckless, and the restaurant's failure to act is inexcusable. I'm mortified, furious, and deeply disappointed. Willy's was once a place I proudly supported. Now, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Until there's accountability, I won't be back--and I urge others to think twice before risking their health here.

Very very very bland which is so disappointing. Why don't places season their chicken??? Or maybe they surface season and don't let it marinate.

It was shaved and crumpled Parmesan, I believe. Croutons were good but the dressing was okay. I think it was made in house, definitely taste the anchovies but something was missing. Couldn't quite put my finger on it. Overall, I did enjoy the salad!

Service is always fast and friendly- a good neighborhood place to stop in for drinks and tavern ish fare. More a 3.5 than a 3. (Wish Yelp would implement half stars :/)

Biscuits were good but the apple butter had a weird taste I didn't care for. I would have preferred them with jam. I also had the fried catfish and grits. The catfish was so good. The grits were good too but the gravy on the grits were a little salty and way too peppery. Because of that, I couldn't fully enjoy my grits. Also, for bottomless drinks (mimosas and sangrias), it would be great if they had pitchers and carafes because when the bar got backed up, some of the ladies at my table and I would have to wait for long periods for our glasses to be refilled. Overall, a great brunch. It has potential to be so much better. I do plan to return and I hope my next visit will be better.

    P is for Primanti Bros., representing 2024 in alphabet series:…read more I was familiar with Primati Bros. when I visited my parents in Lancaster. They live very close to a location there, and we got pizza to go when I was visiting them one time maybe in 2022. The pizza was very good as I recall. Then, I saw there was a location of Primanti Bros. opening in Linthicum Heights near BWI Airport, the first location in the Baltimore-DC area. They were having a grand opening on Wednesday, June 19, 2024, where the 1st 100 customers were going to get free sandwiches for year. I live about 13 miles from here, and I toyed with the idea of trying to be one of the first 100. But I opted against as even if I got there at 6 AM for the 10 or 10:30, whatever grand opening time, and there's still no guarantee I'd be the 1st 100. And I'd be pissed that I drove all the way there and stood there for hours to get nothing in the end. Not to mention, I had work too (although on average probably slower due to also Juneteenth holiday), which I could do from out there to a certain extent. Ultimately, I had emailed them, and they said the 100th customer got there at approximately 4 AM that morning! That's insane. This place really has a cult following! A friend, who knew I lived in AA County, loves this place and mentioned the idea of meeting up with me one Sunday to watch a Ravens game, and him and his fiancée (wife as of March 2025) went up there a few times to watch game or other reasons they went that way. On Thursday, October 3, 2024, like Juneteenth the holiday Primanti Bros. opened, it was Rosh Hosannah, and that friend who had off (as he works in a school & they get the Jewish holiday) off invited me to lunch with another friend of ours. My work was slow that day, and I needed to eat lunch somewhere anyway. I probably would've eaten lunch at home or close to home if they hadn't thought to invite me. So, I drove the 13 miles from home to meet up with them. Those two friends were kind of high. Well sure, it was a holiday they were off work. And they were hungry too! I was hungry too because well it was lunchtime. Service was prompt & friendly answering our questions. However, server was a bit of a klutz as she accidentally spelled some water got a bit on one friend. Geez, was she the one who was high?!...just kidding, it's just one of those accidents that can happen being a server. She was apologetic. My friend took it with stride having a positive attitude. I believe I got a pastrami sandwich, but could've been corned beef. Their sandwiches are big, pilled high with lots of meat & delicious too. I can really see why the following for this place with the quantity but also the high quality. Fries were plentiful too, which were also delicious. I ate well that day for lunch and was quite full. I went to an event that evening, and I think I just ate something small/snack for dinner that night after I got home around 9 PM. This was a great service with excellent plentiful sandwiches & fries and nice service.
