User Reviews

Service: The food and the service were excellent. Rhett, who was our host, was amazing. He was very attentive, humble, and pleasant. Food: The Country Fried Steak, Smoked Chicken, Lil’ Barrel Cheeseburgers, Mash Potatoes, Biscuits, and everything else… was too good. Ambiance: Superb ambiance for a period-themed restaurant. Calm, pleasant, and welcoming. Overall superb experience and we will go back for sure.

Please do not go here. This location is terrible. I order a fried chicken salad. They gave me a salad with cold chicken meat and they also put a few cheese pieces and they also provided me with one small ranch cup that barely had any ranch in the cup And I was willing to pay extra money for more ranch cups and they still brought me out one small ranch cup. The onions were very old. The workers are very rude and snobby never again so sad. I had to come home to add my own toppings, never again. Btw I gagged on how old the crotons was they were so steal 🤮🤢

Shame on corporate, you removed items from the menu, like the steak for the country boy, and replaced it with cheaper steak tips. These changes have eroded the menu so much that it turned a great restaurant into a mediocre one. We were regulars, but we will now be seriously considering not coming back ever again. Also. The size is greatly reduced, and “steak” tips were hard, overcooked and tasted awful. Waitress was nice and replaced it with bacon instead.

My experience at this location by Walmart I must say was slightly disappointing. I called in a kids meal slider with steak fries and asked for pickles mustard and ketchup. I was told they were out of pickles ( I mean are they not able to go to Walmart and purchase any so that customers are not disappointed with their order) but ended up putting 1 packet of ketchup and mustard in a bag. I was also asked did I want a biscuit or corn bread and I said surprise me….. well I was surprised and got neither. At 1st glance My meal did not look appetizing and tasted dry and was not pleasing but due to only having 30 min for lunch I had to eat fast and just deal. I would not recommend this.

Cracker Barrel was founded in 1969 by Dan Evins, a representative for Shell Oil, who developed the restaurant and gift store concept initially as a plan to improve gasoline sales. Designed to resemble the traditional country store that he remembered from his childhood, with a name chosen to give it a Southern country theme, Cracker Barrel was intended to attract the interest of highway travelers. The name comes from the barrels of soda crackers that could be found for sale in small-town stores across the American South in the early 1900s; people would stand around the barrels chatting and catching up, similar in purpose to contemporary office water coolers. The first restaurant was built close to Interstate 40, in Lebanon, Tennessee. It opened in September 1969, serving Southern cuisine including biscuits, grits, country ham, and turnip greens. Evins incorporated Cracker Barrel in February 1970, and soon opened more locations. In the early 1970s, the firm leased land on gasoline station sites near interstate highways to build restaurants. These early locations all featured gas pumps on-site; during gasoline shortages in the mid to late 1970s, the firm began to build restaurants without pumps. Into the early 1980s, the company reduced the number of gas stations on-site, eventually phasing them out altogether as the company focused on its restaurant and gift sales revenues. Cracker Barrel became a publicly traded company in 1981 to raise funds for further expansion. It floated more than half a million shares, raising $10.6 million. Following the initial public offering, Cracker Barrel grew at a rate of around 20 percent per year; by 1987, the company had become a chain of more than 50 units in eight states, with annual net sales of almost $81 million

Everything was just perfect with great customer service! Mighty fine Pancakes they have, I recommend getting a menu option that would include those.

The service was excellent. We came in a few minutes before lunch was served and our waitress was sweet and ordered as soon as it changed over. The food was hot and we were serviced relatively quickly considering breakfast was ending and lunch beginning. Many items are served all day. You can also pay at the table using your phone which is super convenient.

First of all I would like to say that I have never been so humiliated in my life at a cracker barrel. My Wife and I went here to eat because it was a good month or so since we had eaten there and we were wanting french toast and hash brown casserole. There was only 1 server and she had 15 tables. She said pardon the wait every 1 had called out and we understood that. So within 5 minutes 2 more servers showed up and she has 1 go to the hostess stand and leaves the older woman from the stand out on the floor who clearly wasn't able to do the job. And puts the other young lady in the other section with 2 tables. Finally we received our coffee and then ordered, when our food arrived at the table my French toast was absolutely burnt and my eggs were almost raw I asked her to take it back and with a attitude she says what's wrong with it. I said ma'am it is burned black. So she yanks it off the table and says fine I'll get you another 1. Less than 3 minutes goes by and she returns and sets another plate down and says here and walks off. I look at it and it appears that they dipped the bread in the egg wash throws it on the grill for 30 seconds on both sides and brings it to me. The egg was not cooked and it was still running off the bread. I waited for about 5 minutes and I still had not seen her yet so I picked up my plates and proceeded to the area that they go into the kitchen. I asked for her because she was a assistant manager and a young lady hollered in the kitchen for her and when she comes around the corner and sees me she rolls her eyes and shakes her head and says what do you want I handed her my plates and said I'm not going to eat this and then I walked off to the bathroom I get back to the table and my wife and I sat there for 15 minutes and I finally said excuse me ma'am where is my check she yells really loud he said that you don't have to pay for it and she says in a lower voice to One customer they just wanted free meal anyway. I said again ma'am I want my check for my wife's breakfast and our two coffees and she says oh my God walked in the back gets our check comes out drops it on the table and walks off. The check was so nasty I almost didn't pick it up we went out paid for our stuff and left it was the worst treatment I ever received at a cracker barrel.
