Cracker Barrel

Wonderful breakfast at Cracker Barrel! When I arrived, we were greeted and told they would be clearing a table as soon as one opened up. That morning they were only using the front section of the dinning room. I told the hostess that I reserved a table online and when she saw my name she cheered up and said follow me (we felt special)😊. We were able to sit in the next section of the dinning area which was great since no one was sitting by us and felt like we had our own private area. The waitress was fast and very attentive. I ordered a coffee and Mama's pancake breakfast. I added pecans and whipped cream to my pancakes which brought it to an even better level of goodness. It also came with scrabbled eggs and a side of sausages. My son had the same thing but with bacon. My daughter had the Mama's french toast breakfast. The french toast was thick, flavorful, and delicious. My husband ordered the Breakfast Sampler which he said was very good and fulfilling. It came with eggs, bacon, country ham, hash brown casserole, apple dumplings, biscuits and gravy (felt like the food never ended). Great family restaurant.

I feel like cracker barrel in general gets a real bad rep. Now if your taste in food doesn't align with the "chicken fried" or "smothered in gravy" side of the food universe, then this place is probably not for you. This cracker barrel in particular (off shackleford) on our many visits has always been clean, the wait staff friendly, and we have never once waited for a table. On this visit, as we do 99% of the time, we ordered breakfast. I built my own homestyle breakfast, be sure to get "the sampling" of breakfast meats because they are all so good. And husband ordered the bacon n egg hash brown casserole, which he annihilated. They had on offer a few specialty summer drinks - one was the "rocket pop mimosa" and WHOA was it sweet!!! As in you've met your sugar quota for the day after one of these. But I will say it was super cute and neat twist on a classic. Husband got the standard OJ mimosa which didn't disappoint either. My only complaint lies with the biscuits and gravy - gravy came out a little cold and the biscuits were a little stale. I feel like both of these items have been better in past visits. Aside from breakfast, this place does chicken fried everything really well. Their chicken and dumplings are good. Their southern style side dishes are also to be recommended. Great place for kids and large groups. Bad place for diets lol.

Husband stop in to get food to going for lunch for us. They didn't know what hamburger steak was so he got me meatloaf greens and beans. The meatloaf taste like tuna and Stringy the greens taste as dish soap even with the vinegar and salt. I call waited 20 min for manger. He said he would replace the meal. So couple days we want to eat in and get the replace meal. I ordered hamburger steak it was burnt outside and pink inside Okra was cold dumplings well the only dumplings in the bowl was cold the sweet tea was sweet water. Husbands chicken was over cooked with old grease the beans was not good cold. We ask for Biscuits we get cornbread they was Lukewarm. The waitress had 3 tables and she would Disappear.she came drop ticket took off running in had to Hollow a cross the restaurant for a toy go tea and to box for that nasty hamburger steak and chicken brought home to give to my dogs. Had to hunt waitress down to take my meal off of bill. This is the second time we have ate a cracker barrel that the food was suckie. My husband love cracker barrel. I am glad we are leaving this weekend. Will not eat at this one again. We travel the USA and eat cracker barrel a lot.

Loretta our server was not very nice. Our food was lukewarm. If it would have been busy I could some what understand. There were three tables occupied in our section. We had to wait for silverware. Don't even think about getting a refill.....We hated to send the food back because we waited so long to get it the first time. The manager however was VERY nice & listened to our concerns and made it right. Thank you to the manager.

I ordered and paid online. Food wasn’t ready at the time it was supposed to be ready. They were out of one of my sides and didn’t offer a substitute until i mentioned it. I also ordered a strawberry lemonade and they were out of big cups so I was given a baby cup. The drink cost over three dollars. They tried to give my order to someone else. Thankfully he read the receipt and realized it wasn’t his order. They need to get it together. The food I got was good. It’s just the service and organization needs a little work.
