Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

1 28 2023: I’m living in the past! why I keep coming here and giving the place a chance is stupid. I have a $25 gift card that I sword I’d sell online… and didn’t. So, back I came thinking, things would change. Server Jasmine was good however, this is how my morning breakfast went; ordered grandmas sampler french toast. Asked to have a double order of the meats. And add some sour dough toast. Another server brought my meal double bacon and ham, and “one sausage patty biscuits.” I asked about the other sausage patty toast? The other server quickly broth my patty and server Janine said my toast would take a minute. I ate a piece of bacon which was excellent, friend toast was good (I needed sugar free sirup but, I was not going to be one of those customers… running the server(s) to death. Tasted the hash brown casserole and it was cold, not warm cold. The meats on my plate had give off some warming to one side. Seriously… did we just scoop these and not even hit the grill?! Shortly she brought my toast, with edges burnt (crapped the end off just to not be a complainer). Very disappointed AGAIN with what the kitchen staff are doing or not doing routinely. So I finally use my $25 dollar gift card. Todays meal $16.86. As I left the parking lot and saw two couples getting ready to go inside; I gave them my gift card and told them good luck, here is $8.00 on the card. I believe I’ll be done with CB now! It’s a waste of my expectations, money, and time! 10 1 2022: about 830am. My wife had to work so thought I’d give CB another chance rather than put her through the same thing as last time. It had been 7 months since our disappointment. Menu has changed some but no problems. Parking lot was almost full walked in and seated immediately. Server quickly arrived at my table and took my order. I didn’t know which meal would be beat so I asked her to do the best arrangement with my wants. Eggs over easy, bacon and sausage, and loaded hash browns. Ask for toast but got biscuits no problem it worked out better because I also got a side of gravy and tomatoes. The server was Kerri R. and she did an excellent job. Checked back on me numerous times. I’d say CB has redeemed themselves. The only negatives was dining room was a bit loud; noise wise… which always is dB maxed at 106 but averaged 70 80’s. The men’s restroom was was in need of a good cleaning appeared to have been lightly clean missing the bowls and seats. I have got so disappointed in eating out due to all the excuses for poor service, sad food, and higher price. My wife and I didn’t really know where to go Saturday evening and thought just do breakfast for dinner at CB. Checked out the dinner menu and decided to do the chicken fried chicken, chicken dumplings, with sides and was pleasantly surprised at the huge amount and excellent taste of everything! Also got the potato casserole bites and love them as well! Server Hanna was quick and very efficient! All this and great prices. Thank you CB 12 31 21 this visit failed any expectations of normally pleasant breakfast time. And they were not as busy as usual. Something went wrong and it ruined my go 2 association with good breakfast. It’ll be a while before I take family or friends out to here because of this experience (see food pics below for 12 31 21). 2 27 2022: I believe I’m finished with Cracker Barrel egg sandwich was nothing more than something I could have easily done at home and better; not grilled bread , toasted, cheese not melted, just added, and someone please teach these people what over medium egg is! Also, hash brown casserole had cold spots. They just keep losing stars.

The food was good but definitely would have been better warm. I’m pretty sure our waitress Kelsi forgot about our table.

Great country food that tastes homemade. The hamburger is a big disappointment, obviously coming from a frozen patty. The service is always friendly and fast as long as they do not have a line out front. Great place to take small children but not great. If you need to have a quiet conversation. They really do need to improve on that burger. The turkey and chicken and dumplings are wonderful. Why can't the burger be just as good?

Second time in two weeks we have gone and service is bad. Didn 't get a drink order in for 15 minutes then had five servers asking about drinks. Very odd. Then finally ordered and my coffee cup sat empty for 20 minutes. Was never offered more cream when I was out either. Food came and I asked for katchup. Later asked again and still never got any. Last visit we asked for extra apple butter and never got any but was charged. We waited over 25 minutes for just the biscuits to come back. While here the table next to us warned us food has been coming out cold. Seems they are under staffed and not closing sections so servers are spread too thin. Will be ordering to go for now.

I had the eggs benedict on a biscuit and I really enjoyed it. Peach tea was delicious unfortunately we were outside and the speaker was right above our table and it was extremely loud. Always a good experience. Oh! I really like the new plates!
