Yelp 100 Challenge 2025 - #60 Visited on Black Friday for breakfast and they offered a limited menu. Menu options still included their popular items such as the Grandma's Pancakes, Grandpa's Sampler, and lunch options. I joined the waitlist online and only waited 15 mins instead of the 35 mins because of the time I joined. Our server was sweet and attentive and stopped by often to check in and refill water. Be mindful during holidays that there may be a limited menu. read more

This location was our halfway point, and definitely was a welcome spot. Clean, fast, friendly everything you need when dining out.

This location changed my husband's view of Cracker Barrel. Missy was an amazing waitress, made us feel like old friends visiting (we were traveling through from Northern Virginia. Food was fresh and good. I don't understand how this location has negative reviews. read more

Ten minutes to be sat down in the hard chair with the arms smooth from all the other hands before mine and the floor creaking under the weight of folks already eating and then the twenty-five minutes, not just a span of time but a long unbroken rope pulling through my hands, slow and rough, each second another knot, twenty-five minutes while the air was thick with the smell of hot biscuits and fried something not mine, twenty-five minutes for the unseen kitchen to reckon itself with the idea of lettuce, to send someone out into the dark and the dew to cut it, slow, to rinse it in a pan that clanged, to set it down and pick it up again and maybe forget it and remember it and finally, after the long ache of waiting had turned from hunger into something else, something harder, the salad came, leaves limp under the light like they too had been waiting those twenty-five minutes and knew it. read more

I this for real? I never get consistency at this place. I ordered the new country skillet today and you see what I got versus the picture on the menu. Disgusting. Why can't you people get it right? I have ordered so many times this year and never right. Ever. At least today my 5 eggs were right. I had to order over easy to get my 5 eggs. When I do 5 scrambled I get 2. I just don't understand what the issue is. Are people not reading the tickets? Are people so disgruntled with their job they just don't care? I am going to email CEO yet again. I guess I cannot post pictures here. read more

This is one of the best Cracker Barrel experiences we had in a long time! We were seated right away, waitress was super friendly and the manager came and checked on us. Food was also delicious and we noticed that the store and restaurant area was clean! read more

There were five of us and we came here for lunch on a Saturday. Like any Cracker Barrel, it was crowded, especially on the weekends. However, we were seated relatively quickly. Our waitress got our drink orders wrong three times. We only had sodas and water. We had to ask for part of our order after she thought she had given us everything. We tried to get help from another server when our waitress was gone a long time, but she just looked at us and walked away. I recommend getting gas station sushi before eating here. read more

Cracker Barrell Team, Roanoke Rapids, NC: I am very grateful for the efficient, professional, warm, kind and sincere treatment and service. Jessica, Tavis, Sandra. I was tasked with arranging the main entrée for the ECU North Medical Community Thanksgiving meal--with just three days' notice. I contacted Jessica at Cracker Barrel, the manager on call, who graciously attended to every detail. Together, we arranged for ham, cornbread, butter, and honey--carefully planned based on the number of people expected to attend. On the morning of the event, Travis, the manager on duty, personally took my call and assured me everything would be ready right on time. True to his word, he even called me back before I arrived to confirm that every detail was correct. When I arrived for pickup, everything was prepared, ready, and piping hot in serving trays--exactly as promised. Jessica and Travis worked seamlessly as a team to ensure every detail was handled in the most professional way. Sandra checked me out without hesitation--professional, warm, and friendly throughout the entire process. From start to finish, this team delivered not only excellent food, but exceptional service. Every promise was kept, every detail honored. I was under significant pressure to ensure that the meal reflected the highest quality for this special holiday gathering--especially as my husband is the Chief Medical Officer. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail lifted that burden completely. What stood out most was not only the outstanding performance, but the genuine care reflected in their personalities and the relationships they share with one another and with their customers. I am deeply grateful for this experience and for a team that truly defines hospitality, teamwork, and professionalism at its best. read more

I've been to this Cracker Barrel dozens of time with great service. However, it has really gone downhill. We waited for 45 min for a table. I understand if there was a huge crowd but they only had 11 tables seated. The hostess stand was empty for about 20 minutes and the two cashiers said nothing as about 12 people waited. In the 45 minutes, they say no tables, no manager made an appearance, and all 12 people eating walked out. Horrible service. read more

Gross, even worse than my already low expectations. My chicken fried steak was essentially meatless. It's like they somehow fried up the coating only, and served it with a wallpaper paste they call "gravy." Vegetables were overcooked and disgusting. Salad was just a gross mess of old lettuce and chopped ham and shredded crappy cheese. Service is slow. Getting a beer was just ridiculous. I was carded. I am in my 50s and look it. Just absurd. Weirdly, the whole place stank of smoke, like they were smoking ham in the back or something. Only good thing about the experience is knowing that I will never consider eating at any Cracker barrel ever again. read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - people sitting at tables - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina

We visited the Roanoke Rapids Cracker Barrel this past Saturday. Everything was great from being seated for lunch to out the door. There was plenty of parking available. We were seated very quickly. Food was hot and very tasty. Tomeka, our server, was friendly, efficient, and met our every need such as keeping our beverages filled, etc. We also spoke with a manager who was very friendly. Kudos to a job well done. read more

Charged me full price but gave me half a meal. I ordered the mamas sampler which is 4 pieces of French toast ( I got 2 pieces of bread for $15) but they think that since it's Father's Day that they can ration meals instead or preparing for a busy day. Pathetic management here. read more

The worst experience I have ever had at a Craker Barrel ever. We had been traveling all day. We did not plan to go as far as Roanoke Rapids, but we were unable to find an available hotel room in Rocky Mount, so we had to go forward to Roanoke Rapids. By the time that we got settled in a hotel room, we arrived at Cracker Barrel at about 9:30 and they were open until 10 PM. There was no hostess at the stand when we arrived. We were completely ignored by several servers that passed by several times. I asked to cashier if there was a hostess that could seat us and she said, "There usually is". Thanks for that help. Eventually, a server did come over and seat us and said she would take care of us. She took a drink order and then came back and told us she had been cut, so someone else would-be taking care of us. Another server did bring our drinks and took our order. As we waited for our food, the server was doing closing work around us and putting all the chairs on the tables around us. She could not have made us feel less welcome if she tried twice as hard. When the food finally arrived, it was the worst - it was cold; my mother's chicken tenders were so over cooked, they were not edible; the bread choices that were supposed to come with the meals were never served. I would have told the server about these issues had she ever come back to check on us, but she was too busy with closing work than to check on us. I recognize that we arrived very close to closing time, but they should not have sat us if they did not want to serve us. If they had offered take out to us instead, we would have taken that. I saw plenty of take-out orders going out while we sat there. And I bet those orders were hot and came with all the food that it should have. I was always under the impression that Cracker Barrel was all about taking care of feeding travelers. This location failed this mission greatly. read more

Filthy. All memorabilia hanging up has not been cleaned since they opened the restaurant

Special on Friday is cod fish. Large portions of perfectly cooked fish and good selection of side dishes. Mac and cheese is great also recommend the coleslaw read more

Did an online order. very simple. 4 entrees, 3 of which were exactly the same. Got back to hotel and the bag was missing 2 sides, utensils (which I requested) and half the dipping sauces. The mashed potatoes were also missing the gravy. seriously? and they ask for a tip when you check out. What am I tipping for? Being frustrated that a super simple online order is too complicated on a Thursday night? Never again. Food was mediocre. read more

Ate here today as we traveled back home. The food was as expected and our waitress was excellent. The hostess is the reason for my lowered rating. First impressions gave off an "I do want to be here vibe". She never looked up or otherwise acknowledged us. The lady that sat us was pleasant, but the hostess needs to be coached on how to greet customers. read more

The meatloaf was good, the broccoli overcooked, gravy was good, mashed potatoes good but cool. House salad was fine. The one hour wait for takeout was not!!!! read more

Food quality has declined at this location. The biscuits were old, cold and burned on the bottom. All three entrees were served cold and lacked seasoning and taste. Service was good. read more

Cracker Barrel in general is way overrated! We stopped at the Roanoke Rapids NC Cracker Barrel CB0081 on our way back south and we are sorry we did. Absolutely god awful service and the food was sub par. We placed our order and when it came out my wife's order was wrong and the runner wanted to tell her that's what she ordered. We also asked for silverware from one of the useless employees who said she would get us some. She blew us off and never returned. Now my meal was COLD. I have to say I have NEVER had a hot breakfast at a Cracker Barrel while traveling. Why is that potato casserole always tepid? Most likely under state required holding temperature. I sent my meal back (which I never do) and it came back colder. So basically I paid $10 for three pieces of bacon and toast. What a waste of valuable travel time and money. read more

Let me start by asking when did Cracker Barrel start selling mimosas? Lol and yes I did get one! The watermelon mimosa to be exact and it was good. I also ordered a steak (medium) with scrambled eggs with cheese (they forgot to add my cheese) with fried apples! Everything was delicious and the steak was really flavorful and seasoned well. read more

Sitting here now. A 20 minute wait for drinks. Could really use my cup of coffee! Food still not out. Yes, it's a Sunday and I expect and accept a bit of a wait but we are practically being ignored. Floor needs to be swept clean. Silverware (3 spoons) and a glass have remnants of food! Disgusting! One HOUR to get a hamburger and bacon and eggs! Manager completely useless - said she would "talk" to the dishwasher about the dirty items. Food is far below sub par. Honestly, I realize there are very few choices in the area, but avoid this Cracker Barrel at all costs! Our server was very nice and apologetic, but a sidenote to the manager. Please make sure your staff have clean aprons available, because it certainly not appetizing looking at food splattered all over the servers. read more

Don't waste your time & money !!!! We waited for over 45 minutes to get our food . The restaurant wasn't even busy ‍ We didn't even get our biscuits and cornbread til after we got our food . They had ran out of Mac & cheese so I didn't get that . The food wasn't good at all ! I wish I had read the reviews before I went . read more

Ordered my food from DoorDash and got it. Opened the bag and was missing the hash brown casserole, the fried apples, biscuits and gravy and the sweet tea I ordered as part of my country boy breakfast. Instead, I got ham eggs and grits. Missing half my meal. Called the store and the phone rang and kept putting me back to the welcome message for 17 minutes. Not a single person answered. ABSOLUTELY GARBAGE SERVICE! This store was since a great place to eat and was always in point with the customer service. Now we can't get our complete order, and can't even get someone to answer the phone. read more

On Saturday, August 31st, I went to Cracker Barrel for takeout of my favorite dish (Chicken & Dumplings) to carry back to my hotel. While the takeout service experience was good, my food was not. It was very dry, and I'm not sure what was happening with the chicken, but it was disgusting. I was so disappointed, and that's very rare. What is going on with Cracker Barrel? It's unacceptable. I threw it in the trash and ate a bag of chips from 7-Eleven for dinner. I will never go back to that location. read more

It's a Cracker Barrel. Service was good and the food was standard CB fair. Definitely not one of the bad ones so will stop back by when in the area. We both had the Honey chicken tenders which are a great addition but when they arrived they had bits of pork sprinkled on top. I do not remember this in the description or from other times but then this was the first time with someone who has a beef and pork allergy. Mine was delicious but he only picked at his due to the pork bits. read more

Not my favorite location of this restaurant chain but I will say that Cracker Barrel has a very successful formula that works every time. The food is consistently delicious and inexpensive and the staff is always warm and polite. The young lady who was our server was very nice but she has to work on paying attention to detail. For example, we ordered the country lemonade (regular and raspberry) that comes with unlimited refills and a few times we had to wave her down for refills. I feel like that's something that she should have spotted and asked automatically. My cousin ordered a breakfast platter that came with a bowl of country gravy and she decided to leave out the biscuits that came with it. My cousin only knew because he orders this same item regularly. She lost a few points with that. Note: Order the Grandma's sampler breakfast (not on the menu but just ask for it). It is AMAZING and hearty! Oh, and they serve breakfast ALL DAY!!! read more

We are a party of 7 that came in on a Sunday evening. We waited about 20 minutes to be seated. The restaurant only had a handful of tables occupied. We were disappointed to learn that the restaurant was out of lemons so I had to choose an alternative option. My hashbrown casserole shepherd pie was the best thing delivered to the table. Though it is aadvertised as being very crispy it was definitely very soggy. But it was still flavorful. My husband had country fried steak with fries and okra. The entire meal tasted like cardboard. The biscuits that came with our meal were very flat. I think something went wrong in the baking process, but they did taste okay. We asked for honey that never came. Despite there being so little people in the restaurant, we also waited an extremely long time for our food and drunk refills. It was just all around not a good experience. I would not recommend and will not return in the future. read more

would give 0/5 if able to. My ground showed up and was seated after about 15-20 minutes when there was over 5-8 tables open when we got sat down. Which I can understand because they don't want to flood the waitress/waiters but when two were sitting in their phones it doesn't seem like there was much to do for them. Our waitress took out order and then told us each thing we wanted they didn't have or were out of so we ordered something else. I ordered the country boy breakfast and when it came out it was missing my biscuits and gravy and my partner ordered her dish it was supposed to come with a biscuit and it was missing. I was also told my side of fried apples was out of stock. I asked about my biscuits and gravy since it was missing and my partners biscuit that should've came with her meal the waitress ignored what I said until another person brought up they were missing their biscuit to which she rolled her eyes and said she'll bring biscuits out for the table. While we were waiting for our checks she told the table behind us that they have fried apples and brought them to their table after telling us they were completely out. When I paid for my check I was asked about the service and if we enjoyed our meal which I brought up that mine was missing a full part of it and my partners biscuit was missing her biscuit as well. She just said "that's to bad and didn't do anything else" I hate making a fuss about stuff or leaving bad reviews but when half of my order didn't come out and the waitress was rolling her eyes when we bring problems up and lie to our faces about stuff being out something should've happened or been fixed by management. read more
