Told me our family couldn't sit together because we were more than 8 people. All while a family behind us had 11 people and had put 3 tables together. The waiter was great, but whoever is telling them they can't have a party of more than 8, can go fly a kite since he/she does apply that rule consistently. I have always enjoyed the Barrel, especially for our family breakfast while everyone is heading back to their home after a weekend spending time together, but don't think I'll be coming back to Amarillo's. read more

Customer service sucked. Girl who answered phone both times was rude. Manager never came to the phone. Cancelled my DoorDash with no explanation. read more

Are you familiar with the term "boondocks"? I've heard it's a Filipino word that means "remote mountain" and like so many other words, it's been coopted into the English language. In English, it means "remote" as in "I've been camping out in the boondocks." Following so far? Because the RVers have taken it one further and it's called "Crackerdocking" and it means "spending the night in a Cracker Barrel parking lot." I was still stuffed from dinner and I was on my way before they opened so I did not have a chance to eat here on this visit. Next time, Cracker Barrel. Next time. Inside, the store side was well stocked and tidy. The men's room was clean. And the young lady who rang up my candy purchase (gotta have dessert!) was very nice.

This is my absolute favorite spot for breakfast! Cracker Barrel has its own unique charm--cozy atmosphere and tasty home-style food. Service is always quick, and everyone's really nice. Also love browsing the little store at the entrance; it's full of cool stuff and fun gifts. Makes the whole visit even better. Easy five stars! read more

The food at Cracker Barrel was good overall, but the service could use some improvement. I asked for my eggs over easy, but they came out over medium. I also had to wait a bit longer than expected for my meal, and my water was never refilled. The flavors were nice, so I did enjoy the food itself--I just think a little more attentiveness from the staff would have made the experience much better. read more

First let me tell you about our waitress. Our waitress Sabine is funny, smart and so very pleasant! She is fast and always there to ask for refills and to check on us. The food was great as always and hit the spot. She was a breath of fresh air after being on the road driving for hours and hours. Thank You so much. This was the Armadillo Cracker Barrel. read more

Súper great server. She is so sweet and kind, excellent service Food delicious Family Friendly Great acomódate for kinds read more

I am a frequent CB customer. I frequent the chain from Dallas to Chicago. This one in Amarillo is the most disappointing of all the ones I've been to. (Over 7 locations). I ordered the lunch turkey. What happened to the portions??? My friend had a burger. It was so over cooked and thin with about 10 half sized steak fries. The plate was half empty. The service was great, as usual but the food gets a D+. read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Southern Fried Chicken - American Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

First, Cracker Barrel has been my favorite breakfast stop while traveling for years, and I expected a much better experience than what we had here. Our waitress disputed it when I inquired about something that used to be on the menu, but no longer is and she firmly said they'd never had it. That's really not so bad, but we got the bill and it was $75 and, turns out, she had given us a bill for ours and another table's. It took 30 minutes for my husband to get it corrected. The cashier got the waitress up there and she "couldn't remember" what we had. It was mass confusion. The manager got involved and they finally figured it out and our bill was actually $20-something, and they had to back it all out in their system and start over. I'm sure the other customers waiting to check out were frustrated, too. It seemed there was a lot of confusion out front among the staff. Maybe that traces back to their corporate fiasco from a while back, or lack of good training. I don't know, but I felt like a had to say something. read more

We had stopped at another place, sat for 10 minutes and then told the kitchen was on hold. So we moved over here. Good move! We were seated immediately and the server arrived at the table quickly. We got our orders in and the food arrived quickly. Hot and delicious. Our server was excellent. I was very impressed overall. I just wish we had one close to our home. read more

After waiting almost two hours to be seated. Waitress acted like she really didn't want to be there. Took our order and it came out 20 minutes later. Food was typical nothing to brag about. Didn't get our muffins. Getting refills was like pulling teeth. Will we go back to that one? I doubt it. read more

Brain was the person who assisted with our order. He was funny, kind, helpful, and attentive. Our food came out hot and was perfectly prepared according to how we ordered it. Thanks to Brian, as we passed through Amarillo, TX, our visit was a little more pleasant. Great job Brian from Jersey. read more

Terrible place. Filthy dirty. Floors and tables Next to me were a mess. They staged one table to pile up dishes next to ours. Most of the menu choices were out of stock. No butter for the biscuits. Bathrooms atrocious. Run, run, run away from this place!! read more

Cracker Barrel are all pretty much the same. Busy, slow service and decorated the same. Food is pretty consistent. Pancakes are the best! Eggs cooked to order and love the hot syrup for the pancakes. read more

First-time visit at this location. Largish menu of carb-loading breakfast entrees. Glad to find a plate with a sample of several items. I ordered Grandmas sampler, and a side of loaded tots. Bacon and eggs, pancakes in the morning make everything seem possible. I took home the side of tots for a snack later. Attentive service, not a busy morning. read more

I joined waitlist @ 10:38am and checked in as soon as I arrived. When I arrived they told me there was an hour wait for our party of seven. We waited and waited over an hour. Every time I asked they told me there were five parties ahead of us. So when I finally asked to speak to the manager all he said was he was sorry but they were really busy and we had five parties ahead of us. Our name just kept falling out of place on the list. We left and I forgot to remove our name from the list. We finally got a text that our table was ready when we were at a different restaurant getting our food at 12:26pm. read more

We went for lunch today. It was very busy but we were assured it would only be a 30 min wait. The retail area was very crowded with customers and JAMMED with merchandise. There was no place to stand and wait and an employee scolded us for "being in the way". When we asked where should we stand, she said she didnt know. After waiting almost 1.5 hours we were seated. The chairs and the floor were filthy. It took another 45 min to get food and then..... the ticket of sausage and eggs had been split! Half of the table was served and 15 min later, the rest of us were served. The tables were so close to each other, the servers could not walk around the tables!!! They had to serve from one end. There were two managers who stood at the end of the dining room, watching the melee and visiting with each other. We have always been pleased with our experiences at Cracker Barrel, so this was a shock. We were there 2.5 hours, had lousy service, and the facility was DIRTY. We wont be going back. read more

The food was amazing, and so was the service it was astonishing. Everyone was so sweet and nice. 10/10 definitely my favorite restaurant. Also the fact that the restaurant has a really cozy store with well priced items is awesome. read more

Seriously, why do I always see low ratings on CrackerBarrel restaurants! They've been in business for the longest time and people flock to that place all the time. Decent food, feel good food, feels like you're visiting grandma. Decent prices, although others restaurants raised their prices recently I didn't see a huge hike at CrackerBarrel. Whenever my husband and I travel we make a point of traveling where we can go to CrackerBarrel, it is a must! We always had good food, good service and once in a while my hubby buys me something from their gift shop...like a cute hat read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Chicken Pot Pie...Yummmmmm! - American Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

We waited a good ten minutes to be seated at 2 pm. Six employees walked by us and ignored us before we flagged someone down to get a table. Our server was pleasant until we had to ask her multiple times for a to-go box and a to-go water. At first, she brought an empty cup, then five minutes later, brought an actual cup with ice water but no straw. Then she smirked at us when we asked for a straw and she sent someone else to drop it off. The wait for the food was a good half hour - for two entrees. The food itself was fine. Waiting that long at a restaurant on a major interstate where lots of your guests are travelers was very frustrating. read more

Misleading description of menue item. Cheeseburger was described as containing bacon. However, the selection process called for additional $$ to get the bacon. I did not choose bacon for additional $$. My cheeseburger came without bacon. Also I selected the meat to be cooked medium, but it came cooked well done. Finally, the bag contained no cutlery and no napkins. This is my first time to order out from Cracker Barrel's. I was expecting better. Very disappointing to get such sloppy service from what I thought was a good old American restaurant. read more

I stopped at this restaurant Wednesday Feb 28 while driving through Amarillo with my service dog The hostess found us a table right away since the restaurant wasn't too busy The waitress took my drink order and few minutes later she came back with my soda saying she was told ( by the manger probably) that my dog wasn't allowed to drink it inside the restaurant and if I wanted a bowl of water I needed to go outside So i left Life is too short to deal with arrogant idiots... I am not even sure that is acceptable for the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) but if you appreciate what service dogs do for people who need them just go somewhere else read more

Pretty good food, they do offer an allergy menu which was nice for gluten free options. We came in a big group and the staff that served us were all very nice and smiled and made eye contact and did a good job checking on us. The gift shop is also nice, we were able to find something nice there and the employees there were also nice. The place also has a very nice, homey feel to it, love all the old artwork and decorations from the past. read more

I remember cracker barrel having better food. Real country food! I ordered "Homestyle Chicken with French toast" thinking the chicken would be a nice golden friend chicken piece. However, I received a small piece of chicken that appeared to be a frozen chicken patty, and the French toasts were also small triangles, something you would give to a child! The plate was just all wrong all the way around. I think I am done eating at cracker barrels! The country feel and food is gone, and we are left with typical frozen food! The country taste is gone! The service was good. Our server was professional and nice! read more

Just after 6pm on Thursday night. Got sat right away. Waitress was very nice. Food was good. Would have given five stars but it took three tries to get clean silverware. Even then we had to wipe one off. They need to do a much better job of cleaning the silverware. They give it to you in a paper bag so you don't notice till after they walk away. read more

Received very good food. Cooks do great work. Service from the hostess and server was not great though. Server was very condescending towards my girlfriend and our party waited a long find on the checks. Member of our party also waited a long time for food. I enjoy coming here with a small group because of the casual environment though. Would definitely come back for the food if service from the servers and hostess who sat us improved. read more

I don't recommend this restaurant if you have a service dog. Not very receptive to having your dog sitting in the chair beside you. read more

The food was not as good as other Cracker Barrel's I have been to. I have been to other's, a cross the State's. I always have the fried chicken, but this time it was not good. It was dry inside, and over cooked. Good thank, I want be coming this way anytime soon. Only reason I gave them a 3, was the service was good. read more

This store provided me exactly what I expected from a cracker barrel. There are times when the food options at a cracker barrel are exactly what you are looking for. The food here is consistent with the brand and had good flavors. I always want the dumplings and I got a great side dish of dumplings with my meal. The reason for the three-star review is that the restaurant did not feel overly clean. The floor was sticky throughout and the wait staff was not trying to bus their tables at all, so you were surrounded by table after table of dirty dishes. It was like remains from a battle that had occurred on the dining room floor. Out wait staff was not very efficient either, I just wanted to provide some training to help make their life easier and I have never waited a table in my life. If you are traveling down the highway or just pulled into the hotel later in the night, then you can get a reliable meal here at Cracker Barrel. read more

4/21/24- I arrived for a late lunch @ 2pm. Still busy on a Sunday afternoon. Order grilled chicken tenders with dumplings. Normally a very good option at CB. Food came quickly ..... honestly surprised. Then I understood why. Chicken was charred but ABSOLUTELY RAW inside. Waitress was extremely apologetic, but I still was appalled. I can forgive a lot of things in a restaurant, but undercooked chicken is not one of them. read more

I love Cracker Barrel and for the most part have never had any problems, but this experience has to be told. My husband and I were passing through Amarillo on the 14th of July 2022 and decided to use the Cracker Barrel App to order take out from this specific store. When I went to pick up the food, there was only one employee at the front counter and she was in a deep conversation with two other people and I waited for at least five minutes before she finally addressed the fact that I was waiting. I told the young lady that I was unable to order brown gravy by itself and asked if i could also get that with my order. She talked to someone over her little headset and then told me it would be here in a minute. Five more minutes go by and she is still talking to people about things that were not business related. They brought up a cup of gravy and she hands it to me...I looked at her and said what about my order. She then pointed to a large shelf where a bag and a refreshment were sitting and said that is yours. First off, I have never had to pick up my own food from the shelf and secondly she did not take the time to go over my order to make sure we received everything. When I got back to our hotel room, I noticed that we did not receive the cornbread muffins we requested, instead it was three biscuits and one lil ole cornbread muffin. Me and my husband only eat biscuits at breakfast. We had ordered additional sides of Mashed Potato's and gravy, along with extra sides of Mac and cheese. My husbands plate consisted of Hamburger Steak and Green beans....he had ordered green beans, Mac and Cheese and an extra side of Mac and Cheese. My plate consisted of Pinto Beans and Greens, but my extra Mashed Potatoes were not there. I reviewed the receipt and discovered that someone had marked through the Mac and Cheese orders and the Mashed Potatoes, stating that these were not available. Why was I not told about this when I picked it up. Each side was an additional $2.99, but they didn't even credit my card back. To make matters worse, the brown gravy was full of onions....who asked for onions? It looked like maybe it was gravy that normally goes on a pot roast not on ordinary orders. I noticed that the pinto beans on my plate were full of green beans...how does that happen. When I saw that I couldn't even eat that or the greens. It was almost as if someone cleaned a plate off into my order. I also noticed bits of Mac and cheese mixed in the gravy...what the???? It was disgusting. Please think twice about ordering take out from this place...you may have better luck dining in, not sure but you may get luckier than I did. We will never visit this specific Cracker Barrel again. Whoever owns this place may want to provide more training to your front counter employees, as well as, the employees that are preparing take out orders. They are hurting your business. read more

Traveling from Texas to CA. So excited to stop at a spot with dine in available and also staying safe. Very clean restaurant. Gracie was our server and was no less than amazing. She was personable and respectful. She perfected our order, was quick on refills, and a delight to talk with. I'm a vegetarian so there wasn't much for myself, however the bread is great and the salad was good. Kids chicken tenders and Mac n cheese was great. Gift shop is super cute Bathrooms clean. :) read more

Never let me down with the food quality and customer service. Decided to try something new - the southern fried shrimp, they were out of broccoli but gave me delicious steak fries and opted for corn and mashed potatoes with brown gravy. I even ordered a second time for dinner pickup and tried the new chicken tenders with smokey sweet glaze, had bacon chunks on 'em and were sinfully delish! I'll be back again :) read more

I want to do 3 stars, but my husband said the chicken tenders he had were literally the best he has ever had in his life, so that deserves another star! My food was good and very filling for the price, but nothing amazing. My daughters pancakes were just alright as well. The staff there was insanely kind as expected. The bathrooms were also incredibly clean which I appreciated. Decent, but just decent as I recalled from a long time ago. read more
