    Famous cheeseburger and hand-cut fresh fries
    Rhett B.

    I reviewed Shirley's Mainline BBQ last week about the ribs, potato salad, and beans and overall restaurant. Today, was the Famous Cheeseburger with fries. It was the lunch special today. The burger was a fresh-made patty and came with fries. You cannot find a better burger with fries and a drink for $6.50. The burger itself is pretty magnificent but what bumps the rating up from a 4-star to a 5-star are the fries. Fresh, home-cut, and made to order, these are possibly the best fries I've ever had from a restaurant. Most of us have had fries from several restaurants but these are on a different level. The only drawback is I wish I would have been given more.

    Steak special
    Bbq L.

    They were very very busy tonight. This is a family establishment & the customers all seemed to enjoy their food. It being a Friday night, I saw a lot of orders for steak & ribs. My neighbor and I went again. He ordered the hamburger steak with onions & gravy and a baked potato. Their baked potatoes are nearly a pound y'all. The entrees are brought out on hard plastic plates, while the salads & drinks are in Styrofoam containers. The steak I ordered was marinated a long time, so very tender. No need for salt or steak sauce. I ordered a medium rare steak & it was brought out as medium rare to medium, which is fine! It had a great flavor. Even though the place was busy, our drinks never got below half full. The young man waiting on us also was clearing tables - yet he was very attentive. That's a big plus. The next table over, a sheriffs deputy had a smile on his face as he was enjoying his ribs. I may try those next time.

    Was not impressed with what we got. Wasn't very fresh, burger was just a frozen cheap patty.

    While traveling back home from Arkansas, we decided to stop in Birmingham. Weren't too hungry and…read moredefinetly didn't want any more fast food. Cracker Barrel was super close to our hotel so we walked over. This must be a location that hald already gone through the remodel as it didn't seem as "cluttered" with decor as the old version. It also wasn't remodeled to the point that it looked like an entirely different restaurant, either. We were seated quickly as there was no wait when we arrived. We were greeted by the manager as we were escorted to our table. Alex H., our waiter, wasn't far behind. It may have been one of his first days by himself as he seemed a little hesitant... but then again, the manager was stoking the fire right near him... so maybe he was just nervous. Alex did a great job. Our orders were brought fairly quickly, including the ever elusive Broccoli cheese casserole. The portions were perfect for us that day (they seemed smaller than normal but we weren't starving anyway.) He very politely handed them to us plate by plate and came back twice to check that everything was well. I HAVE to mention that Alex even used proper English which isn't common in daily conversation. More often than not, people choose to use slang. This is likely one of the best visits to Cracker Barrel that we've had in a long time. Alex should be promoted to a peer trainer! That would definitely improve the perception of the Barrel!

    We went there last night. We were very disappointed. The waiter that would have been assigned our…read moretable couldn't keep his pants up. He was constantly pulling them up from the back. So we requested another server. My husband ordered meatloaf. When it came to the table, it was so dry that it looked like a burnt sponge. We called our sweet waitress over and explained that we were not going to eat it. Her response was I knew there was going to be a problem. In which I didn't appreciate that comment. So we sent the whole plate back and told her to take it off our bill. She did. Not one manager came to our table to check on us. Needless to say we were quite disappointed in the food and the cleanliness of the staff. His hands were down in the back of his pants. Please get a belt, it does help to keep your pants up. We won't be back to the restaurant.
