Breakfast was really good! Crispy bacon, tasty biscuits, awesome sourdough French toast. Reasonably priced. Waitress was attentive and friendly. Clean restaurant. Family friendly atmosphere. Wonderful dining experience.

We stopped in about 2 PM on Sunday of July 4th weekend. They were extremely busy. We have never seen a Cracker Barrel so staffed up. They had multiple seaters. They had at least 21 servers, 3 greeters, 3 cashier's, multiple bussers and 3 managers. The service was quick and efficient. Everyone was doing every job. Managers were clearing tables. Servers were clearing and sweeping, etc. It was definitely a well oiled machine of service.
The breakfast food was not quite up to standard. The Biscuits were light and fluffy. The gravy must have been microwaved, as the little blue bowl was so hot you could barely touch it, but the gravy was only slightly warm.
The over easy eggs were cooked properly, but tiny and cut in rectangles. The sugar ham was cooked to death, hard and dry. The bacon on one plate was crispy. The bacon on another plate was completely limp and nasty, although ordered crispy. Thankfully, it was replaced. The scrambled eggs with cheese were a flat, dry, tough pancake with a slice of cheese simi-melted on top. The hashbrown casserole was very good.
So, loss of 2 stars for inconsistent food. Plus of 2 stars for Service above and beyond the expected and demonstration of teamwork under pressure. With management this involved, I am sure that the food consistently will come back as they aren't so slammed.

Very friendly staff, from the time we entered, to our server, and when we checked out. The food was very good, my wife especially loved the warm syrup for the hotcakes. The grits and biscuits and gravy were great.

The food always great how ever the service there takes your order then 3/4 more tables which ends up wrong and we were served after the other 3 tables were served even though we placed our orders 1st

It's your typical Cracker Barrel, Loaded with cute items, as well as delicious food. I had no issues here. The waitresses were all very friendly, the food was very good, the atmosphere was lively. Very good employees at this location. They definitely have it together here! ❤️

One of the best Cracker Barrels I have ever visited. The staff is great. They made sure to clean the grill before cooking my daughter's pancakes due to her allergies and possible cross contamination with Pecan pancakes. Alexis was especially nice. And also the manager Crystal was very nice.

I have never had a bad experience at a Cracker Barrel until now. The server was great ( which is why I didn't give it 1star)but, the food not so much. Firstly it took a very long time to get our food.. We ordered the fried catfish and it was so over cooked that the breading had the texture of sand. The dumplings and macaroni were cold . The only thing I enjoyed were the fried apples. The lady who checked us out was so sweet. I will return to Cracker Barrel I'm hoping this was just a bad day.

We had such a pleasant experience today. After having trouble finding a restaurant where we could sit down for dinner last night, it was so enjoyable pulling into Cracker Barrel and getting wonderful food and great service. Thanks to our server Christina. You were a breath of fresh air.
