The store looked nice and clean filled with beautiful things. The restaurant was clean and our server was excellent. The ground steak was of the highest quality, medium and full of flavor. The grits were runny and totally not acceptable. I even Googled it and grits are not supposed to be runny, but rather thick and creamy. I lived in the deep south for 18 years and have also made them many times over the years. I won't be ordering them again there. read more

Cracker Barrel! I was thinking it was going to be just an okay, 3 star(not great but just okay) but everything was really above average. The service and staff were all very friendly. The atmosphere was so very laid back which was relaxing for a larger family. The fried pickles breading was thicker than I was expecting but provided a nice balance and were very crispy. The steak fries were crispy from the time they brought them out to the time we packed up. My kids loved the kids meal shrimp. Not too bready and nice and crispy. The chicken sandwich was ginormous! AND crispy and still juicy. The fried chicken was tender and perfectly cooked. The Mac and cheese was creamy. The green beans were a little disappointing for me, I thought they were to acidic. The meatloaf had good depth of flavor and wasn't dry. The steak had a great sear on it and was still medium rare. Great unique Not pictured were the biscuits. As far as breakfast restaurants, it is close to the best biscuits we have had. 3*** = Good but no separation from similar shops 4**** = Set themselves a part with tastiness 5*****= You have to go out of your way and make a special trip to try the deliciousness that is there! read more

The staff was super polite and helpful. The food was pure home cooking style. Meat and vegetables were fresh not frozen or rethawed. It was much better than I expected. But I'll be going back. Be sure to go when you're hungry. read more

Always good food served as fresh as can be considering it's made when you order. Service is always excellent, they take care of you despite having small glasses then make sure that they try to fill it as often as possible. Ambience is an old country store so you gotta love that. read more

I hadn't been to Cracker Barrel in almost 10 years and it's still as good as I remember! Their breakfast is definitely subpar. The pancakes truly are some of the best in the business. I also go their hash brown casserole which is basically cheesy hash browns, scrambled eggs, bacon, ham and sausage. The server was super nice and very attentive. Would highly recommend for breakfast! read more

If it wasnt for my parents liking Cracker Barrel I would never come here. My last review was 3 stars and now it should be zero. The business level was busy but starting to slow down with tables being empty around. I ordered a cheeseburger well done and it came out pink. It got taken back to be remade. So I sat there awkwardly as my parents and boyfriend ate their food. They when it finally came everyone was done or just about done and it just takes away from the experience of enjoying a meal with family. When we initially sat down it took quite some time until we were acknowledged and it was cool the manager stepped up and asked if we had drink orders in yet and we said no. He said if we had our food choice ready he could take our food order. He did come back around to check on me about my burger getting remade. I will not be back to this Cracker Barrel. read more

Tried to dine here for breakfast from out of town and had one of the absolute worst experiences at a Cracker Barrel ever. Not only was the food terrible and not cooked to order, half of it was undercooked and inedible. Service sucked, and when we were asked about it and offered a manager to "help" he showed up front arguing with his staff about the radio's mixing up with the gas station next door, then proceeds to argue with me, the customer, on every single point of disservice and unhappiness about the food that was made. When i got fed up with his bullshit and said i wasn't there to argue with him, and just was going to pay and go, he decides to "take care of it" and is gone to the back, no direction for his staff to comp a meal or do anything. We left. Don't recommend. 2/20 9:00am. read more

Sit a spell and enjoy the fun old timey atmosphere with lots of antiques to look at: definitely one of the main reasons I enjoy coming here. And the staff is delightful too. As is browsing the general store type of shop crammed full with interesting snacks you can't easily find elsewhere, great self-care items like goat milk lotions, and plenty of seasonal items and unique fashion. But on to the food: the catfish was excellent! My meal included catfish, greens, mashed potatoes, okra, hush puppies, and biscuit/muffins (sourdough toast was from friend's meal of chicken fried steak, beans, carrots which he enjoyed too. I even took some of mine home in a container I brought with me. Plastic alert: They should ditch the disposable condiment container in favor of a reusable one since there is no need for unnecessary plastic use. You can also take a nice walk behind the business since the New River Trail is right there to help you work off that good food. read more

We went to Cracker Barrel for an earlier dinner. It was not crowded as it usually is because of our early arrival, 4:30ish. The wait staff was excellent, quick and friendly. The food, I had the fish, was exceptional as always and reasonably priced considering how high prices are these days. We will be going back. read more

Bought a $50.00 Gift Card - but did not receive any points - Very Dishonest regarding APP. Also, they Do NOT have any Customer Service. They list a 1-800 # it refers you to website ONLY. When you get to the website - you are NOT ALLOWED TO INTERACT WITH ANYTHING OTHER THAN A ROBOT. The Robot asks if you would like to speak with someone, requests your phone number - so I gave phone number - then they wanted my email. I did not give email - so - I WAS NOT ALLOWED ANY KIND OF ASSISTANCE - EVEN THOUGH I CONTACTED WEBSITE VIA PHONEY 800# THEY HAVE NO CUSTOMER SERVICE N O N E read more

I hadn't been to Cracker Barrel since I was a kid probably, but my husband's side of the fam wanted to celebrate Thanksgiving early here so we went! I love the little shop up front and how they had it decorated cute for Christmas. They were very accommodating for my almost 20 month old as well. The restaurant appeared to be clean and was surprisingly busy for a Tuesday evening! I ordered a veggie plate to share with my son, I got Mac n cheese, broccoli, hash brown casserole, a biscuit, and cornbread. My son was all about the biscuit and Mac n cheese. He loved my husbands steak fries as well. Everyone else enjoyed their food. I do think that management maybe dropped the ball a little, one server seemed to be covering the whole restaurant and no managers or anyone to help her in sight. I get that it's sick season so maybe some people were out but I felt bad for that server, especially with some pretty large groups dining in. Overall good experience though and happy to have Cracker Barrel reintroduced to me as an adult! read more

Since we don't have a Cracker Barrel where we live, we make it a must to stop when visiting AZ. Upon entering I get struck with nostalgia and a smile always comes to my face. I love the genera store. We were greeted by two lovely hosts that told us about their specials and sat us down promptly. Our server was immediately at our table to make sure we would get drinks right away. We also ordered a new appetizer, cheesy casserole tater tots. They were fun to have as a new menu item. I ordered their Biscuit Benny with bacon. It was perfectly made and delicious. My husband ordered a skillet with steak, eggs and cheesy hash brown. He said it was excellent. It was a very generous helping. Our server was also amazing, with a pleasant and fun personality. Upon check out I took advantage of the vintage candy, and was welcomed by a lovely man at the checkout. All in all, this Cracker Barrel lived up to their excellent reputation. I love it here. read more

First time here in a few years for breakfast. 1st u do not like paying $39 for 2 people. The food was just ok. The gravy was not good and the sausage had a weird taste. The French toast was just basic toast sized bread. Did not meet expectations read more

It's been a few years sense I've eaten here. The place was so empty, I never seen it like that before . I wasn't happy with the new menu. The coffee didn't taste the same. And instead of one thick cut ham I got two super thin cuts that were very dry. The grits tasted bland, like instant grits ?? After 20 years of eating at Cracker Barrel , I won't be back. Just not the same. read more

Slow service. Ordered two eggs hash browns ham and biscuits. Nothing was freshly cooked. Very disappointing. Wont be going back. read more

The bacon was cold to the touch and pancakes could have been cooked a little longer. The fried steak had wax paper cooked in it and hash browns casserole was very bland. When I told the server about the wax paper she said she would tell the manager and got no response. I have been to multiple Cracker barrel locations and this one by far is the worst. The service was ok expect for her constantly trying to up sell with drinks. Once or twice is ok but every time she came to the table. read more

Concern Regarding Service Experience My husband and I dined at your restaurant today. After being seated, we waited approximately five minutes before our server, Tryna G., came by to take our drink order and asked if we were ready to order. I let her know that we would like our drinks first and would be ready to order shortly. When Tryna returned, she took our food order. Another server later delivered our food; however, several items were missing, including gravy, biscuits, butter, and blackberry jam. Since our server did not return, I asked Cristina if she could assist us, and she kindly brought the missing items. Shortly after, Tryna G. came by, dropped off our ticket, said "have a great day," and left. She did not ask if we needed iced tea refills, a to-go box, or if everything was satisfactory. We did not see her again for the remainder of our visit. I later asked Cristina for a to-go box, which she provided, and I also informed her of the service concerns we experienced. At that point, we were the only table remaining in Tryna G.'s section, and I believe she should have checked on us before leaving. I wanted to bring this to your attention, as we were disappointed with the service during our visit. Thank you for taking the time to review this matter. read more

The food was absolutely fantastic, went out with family and it was a very nice outing, the server destiny was an absolute sweetheart and her service was 10/10 amazing and customer service was fantastic she was very sweet, explained the menu and gave us all the options and the ambiance was very friendly and mind you they were busy but the food came out in a timely manner, my mother very picky about the way she likes her bacon and they were awesome to accommodate her and make her bacon extra crispy so she can enjoy herself with the family! Thanks Cracker Barrel will definitely recommend! read more

I took my wife to Cracker Barrel and we had to wait quite a while to get seated. An apology was made. We were seated and given menus. Twenty minutes went by and we weren't acknowledged by anyone, although there were four wait persons in the area. Got up and walked out. No one said anything. Sad state of affairs. Won't be going back! read more

I'm vegetarian and a brunch lover. They have impossible sausage as well as several other protein options for non vegetarians. The variety and quantity of food makes this a 5 for me. Staff are helpful in finding just the right combo meal so I can have a bit of all my favs. Unfortunately there are no Cracker Barrel's where I live so I only get to enjoy this a few times a year. read more

Let me start by saying my Husband loves CB because just 4 days after 9/11, at the request of a nonprofit, he drove from Southern CA to NYC to help with the NYC canine unit & was able to give them a major grant -- on the way back to CA, he stopped at a CB and the Manager, seeing his NY Police cap, refused to let him pay. He's told that story many times. But sorry, this location disappoints with every visit. A year ago, they had no fried chicken at lunch! Yesterday for breakfast, the food came out FAST but it was cold. It seems so empty when we go there, breakfast or lunch. It just feels like no one is managing there, but I love the lady in the store -- she couldn't be more welcoming. The store in Flagstaff is the model for what you want Cracker Barrel to be, so don't miss it! read more

Always a comfy food place. Omelette was great and Plentiful. Server was really sweet.

I love the Cracker Barrel pancakes, especially when they have a slight crispness to it. Got the grandma sampler and coffee. The inside is your typical CB vibe. Unfortunately, this experience is one with terrible service. The server came out with the food and it's missing a sausage. She says it's just cooking still and will bring it out separately. A bit odd but ok whatever. We started eating, and we finished all the food but I'm still missing my sausage. I mentioned it to the server that I never got my sausage. This is literally what she says, "Aw sorry about that. I forgot." Then hands me the bill and literally walks away! So you charged me for the sausages, didn't bring it out, and kept the charges still? Terrible service! read more

Very inattentive server- asked for a decaf coffee refill twice and it never came. It didn't seem busy at the time. She seemed to have vanished at the end of our meal. Windows throughout the restaurant were filthy. The lattice work next to our table was covered in dust and splatters. The trough it was seated in was filled with dust and filth. Food was ok but lukewarm. Pretty sure I won't be back. read more

Great place to have breakfast but for sure there will be a long wait to get a table during weekends. However the cool gift shop and rocking chairs and games will keep you busy. Just come before you get super hungry and this will be a cool experience it's like going back in time because of the decor is so cool that takes you to a different era. Food is always great, plenty of options. The pancakes im not a big fan. I find them a little fry but everything else is good. read more

We were staying across the parking lot in the Holiday Inn Express, after several hours of driving across the country, and decided to enlighten ourselves with "dinner" at Cracker Barrel. We had been to a CB twice before, once for the meh lunch and another for the good breakfast. I was hoping for a glimpse into 'a good ol' grandma's kitchen' for this evening's supper. A country Grandma's kitchen is what I got. My wife didn't appreciate any of it; since one would think, a country kitchen would be serving "fresh from the garden" green beans, not canned. I had to explain that the country doesn't always have "fresh" during times of winter etc. So what I experienced, was a different take on what us 'country Italians' might be used to. I ordered, and we split, the meatloaf with a baked potato and "green beans". . . There was something else, perhaps a garden salad of some sort. Even the canned green beans had a unique flavor, as though not just canned. Just canned. The biscuits tasted very bold. They were what buttermilk biscuits are supposed to taste like. Just not my preference. The meatloaf was a meatloaf. Not much more needs to be said about that except the tomato BBQ sauce across the top was rather tasty. The baked potato is what we were craving after 14 days on the road, just be careful as it comes loaded. This was our final dinner on the road. Yippie! It was just a walk back to our final hotel room next door. Interesting decor inside and hanging from the ceiling. I was surprised to see old tobacco/cigarette posters on the wall. One would think these would be no longer given all of the political incorrectness of today's society. Decent food, just not something to run back to. I guess if CB is the only thing available, then it is fine. This is Grandma's country kitchen including the canned green beans. Dicks read more

worst dinner ever! I placed an order through grubhub. I ordered their Thursday night special which is Turkey, stuffing, gravy, and the sides you pick. we didn't get the stuffing or the gravy, so it was just 2 very small slices of dry turkey. I asked for mashed potatoes and I got Mac and cheese. I asked for cornbread but got biscuits. a person that works there signed off on the order! why? it wasn't close to what I ordered or even slightly a 52.00 meal. It was the worst meal ever and I won't be ordering from them again. read more

I don't eat here, but I do like shopping here. Perfect place to pick up unique gifts. My mom like to come, so it is a thing we do together once in awhile. The gals behind the counter are always sweet. I made out pretty good this visit. Never too busy in the evenings. read more

I ordered a half chicken dinner and turkey dinner from the 83rd Ave and Bell Rd location. DD delivered a turkey dinner and a steak firehouse meal. i called and talked to the manager. She was apologetic but told me to contact DD to dispute. Which I did knowing it wasn't on DD. CB made the mistake. The manager should have sent a new meal or a gift card to cover the cost of the meal, delivery and tip cost. read more

Family and I came in to celebrate my mom's birthday it was on a Tuesday, looked like a Sunday morning, it was super busy. Kitchen was backed up, totally understandable but our food was AWFUL, I asked waitress to put specific foods on the sides, she didn't. Waitress was tossing our food on the table spilling drinks and food, her customer service was NOT great 1/10. Food -10/10. Environment 3/10. Birthday girl ordered a dish and looked nothing like the picture! It was a shrimp dish with literally 7 pieces of shrimp on the skillet with no broccoli just rice and shrimp. We usually have a good experience with Crackel Barrel but this location was not satisfactory read more

Dear Cracker Barrel, I am writing this review with a heart full of sorrow and a mind teetering on the edge of philosophical collapse. Today, I sat at your rustic table with hopeful anticipation of syrupy joy -- joy that has been an unshakable part of my Cracker Barrel experience since time immemorial. But when my pancakes arrived, I discovered not the warm, nostalgic embrace of a charming mini hot syrup bottle, but a COLD, lifeless dish of syrup. Cold. Dish. Do you understand what you've done? The syrup bottle was more than a condiment; it was a beacon of consistency in a chaotic world. Its smooth, warm glass represented the very foundation of trust, the core of what it meant to embrace tradition. I would sit in that cozy rocking chair on the porch and think, "Here is a place where time stands still. Where values endure. Where the syrup is always HOT and in a BOTTLE." But now? Now my pancakes are covered in syrup that has not been poured -- it has been dropped like cold tears of corporate indifference. The very fabric of my universe has frayed. My understanding of space and time has shattered. Are we truly free if our syrup comes in a dish? Is life even real anymore? I sat there, staring into the sticky abyss, questioning my faith, my purpose, and the entire metaphysical nature of syrup service. How dare you, Cracker Barrel? How dare you dismantle a core memory and replace it with the banal, uninspired horror of refrigerated sugar water? The syrup bottle was not just an accessory to breakfast; it was a symbol of American resilience. A warm handshake from generations past. And you have discarded it like yesterday's biscuits. I leave you now a different person -- a person who has stared into the soulless void of cold syrup and emerged broken. You have not merely failed me; you have failed tradition itself. Please, I beg of you, return the bottles. Return the warmth. Return the meaning to this empty, syrup-less existence read more
