Service is excellent Lise nice and clean. The bathrooms are clean and bigger than the one we used to. The cinnamon buns in a skillet a very doughy. They ran out of baked potato and it's 4 o'clock on a Sunday. Corn muffin is fresh, but undercooked, and it falls apart soon as you take a bite Loaded hashbrowns very tasty, but the hashbrowns again the cooked. Obviously not paying attention to food that goes out. There was a piece of onion in the loaded hashbrowns. Still love the ambience of all the old antiques love the store and all the employees. read more

Say whatever you want about Cracker Barrel, but their ads on TV tempt the tastebuds! We drove through Horseheads Village in upstate New York and saw a Cracker Barrel and decided to try their special cream cheese stuffed pancakes with fresh strawberries and maple stawberry sauce! Spot on delicious, not overly sweet! We also tried the Shepherd's pie with hash brown crust and grilled cheese. Wow! Chunks of tender pot roast and vegetables in a hot skillet topped with a crispy hash brown crust and cheddar cheese and sour cream garnish. Winner! But truly noteworthy was our server, Tyler, who went out of his way to answer our many questions as we were tourists in unfamiliar territory. He also gave us top service, refilling our bottomless lemonade, providing condiments and take out trays as needed. He made our dining experience truly enjoyable. Thanks, Tyler! read more

Although we'd stopped by a different Cracker Barrel on the way to New York City, we had to stop again on the way back because we wanted to eat from the regular menu (and not just the breakfast menu). This time we showed up right around noon and the place was quite packed, but we managed to snag a table within minutes of arriving. I already knew exactly what I wanted, the U.S. Farm-Raised Fried Catfish - 1 Piece ("One spicy grilled fillet plus choice of two Country Sides. Served with hand-rolled Buttermilk Biscuits or Corn Muffins"), and I got that with Fried Okra and Hashbrown Casserole. It took a while for the food to arrive but when it finally did, it was so worth the wait. The catfish was especially delicious, as it arrived to the table hot and perfectly cooked. And when paired with their delectable tartar sauce, it really was an absolutely magnificent concoction. The two sides were exactly what I wanted, too. I really do love Cracker Barrel. I wish they'd come to Canada already. read more

Food is alright. The Quantity a bit small than the usual diner. I know it's not a diner but as a restaurant it's should have a little more than expected. I feel like in a weight watchers breakfast. The Grandpa's breakfast is ok bcoz the chicken is not that tender. It's a bit rubbery in my opinion. Ambiance is definitely amazing. The souvenir shop is so cool celebrating all seasons pretty much. Definitely buying some stuff in this shop. Service btw is phenomenal! Pam our server is simply wonderful and kept pouring our coffee and making sure we're both happy! Thanks for the great service! read more

(Sung to Wild Thing) Crackerbarrel! You make my heart sing! That's how I feel when I walk into the space. I feel a comfortable feeling, everyone is so nice, it's hard to be mad after walking thru the aisles and seeing all the comfort items for sale. Some of the Crackerbarrel staples I have in my home: Crackerbarrel coffee Crackerbarrel pancake syrup Crackerbarrel Apple Butter After looking around the store (which is the same layout of all the Crackerbarrels) we're seated at our table. I have my go to breakfast: Sausage Pattie's with eggs and a side of grits. I've been eating this dish since I joined the military at 18. I'm a grit addicted! Haha Always a great meal any time of the day read more

Amazing great service as well. Food is as good as it's always been. Great gift shop as well.

Please understand. Most of my Cracker Barrel reviews are the same. The restaurants are all alike the difference is what I am ordering and staffing. Cracker Barrel is just the All American go-to place when I am traveling. I mean, how can you go wrong here. No matter where I am it seems like the people are all the same. We came here for breakfast while traveling in to Buffalo from Corning. From the second you're on the porch of CB until you sit down, it's like a deja vous from one restaurant to another. As usual, we were greeted by a very pleasant hostess and followed up by our extremely pleasant and efficient server, Kristin. My wife and myself had a fabulous breakfast consisting of terrific Pecan pancakes for me and eggs with thick cut bacon and scrambled eggs for my wife. The food is always fresh-tasty and always come to the table hot. We never had to wait too long once the order is given. They follow a great model here and should be proud of all their successes. The team works very well together. This place never disappoints you no matter what you order. All delicious and huge portions of food. A special shout out on the pancakes I had this trip. It was some serious YUM. Our waitress Kristin was delightful-pleasant-helpful who was genuinely concerned that everything at our table was to our liking. The level of caring here is commendable.

On a busy Mothers Day, I was quite suprised how fast everything went from my ordering my meal to go, and browsing the store. My whole wait time from ordering to receiving my meal, and checking out was less then 30 minutes. I choose this restaurant, as it was a fun spot, my mom and I always enjoyed the food and their store for its clothing and unique items. My choice for this restaurant, was a perfect ending, to a difficult, sad day.. honoring my moms one of few favorite restaurants read more

First of all our server was great. The food however was just plain WTF. Our salads were huge which isn't a bad thing but it was mostly cheese and bacon. Just eh. My husband got the crispy fried chicken. The pieces were small.... And while we know there is some grease involved, we weren't expecting a lake of grease on the chicken. Mac and cheese was dry but was the best part of the meal. I ordered Chx and dumplings. These were the biggest dumplings I've ever seen. I got 2 tiny pieces of chicken tenderloin in it and it was so salty I couldn't even eat half of them. It's been 20 minutes and I'm still thirsty. My mashed potatoes were cold right off the bat and my green beans as well. We won't make a special trip to this Cracker Barrel again! But our waitress was nice and tried! Noticed she was pulling double duty waitressing and clearing tables. Hope her customers don't tip her based on the food. It was also freezing in there. read more

Was in the area with family so we decided to have a late breakfast. The restaurant was packed but we were seated promptly by a friendly hostess. Once seated our waitress came over and was so pleasant. She took our beverage order which came quickly. At that time she took our meal orders. Our meals came out in about 10 minutes. Every was delicious. Our waitress had several large tables and was still very attentive. She was awesome! Great family food place!! read more

We drove an hour on a Thursday just so we could get the delicious turkey dinner they have on Thursdays. W got there at 345 thinking we would have an early dinner before the dinner rush. We ordered our iced tea only to find out when the waitress brought our drinks that they were all out of the turkey dinners. They hadn't even started the dinner hours yet. You would think by now they would know how much turkey to make or they need to make a cut off time for it public notice so people aren't disappointed. We would have left if the drinks were not already there. so we ended up ordering a shrimp and rice skillet meal advertised on the front of their menu. The shrimp was chewy and rubbery (internet search said most likrly overcooked shrimp) We also found the shrimp somewhat stringy and kept pulling pink strings off of the shrimp (internet search said most likely the nasty intestinal vein yuck! ) So for fifteen dollars we got terrible shrimp with very little sauce (was supposed to be enough sauce for dipping-not) A slice of seasoned toast, a little rice and a side. Call ahead if you want turkey so you won't be disappointed and end up ordering something you really don't like. I don'r recommend the shrimp, y read more

Originally was trying to go to Longhorn steakhouse next door but the wait was over an hour so decided to go here. I'm glad we did because there was no wait and the the food came out at a reasonable time. I ordered the fried pork chop with Mac and cheese and fried apples as sides. The portion was huge and the food was delicious. The server was nice and tentative as well. Would eat here again. read more

We waited almost 10 minutes for service, and the waitress had a twinge of attitude. I ordered 2 pancakes with 2 sausages and a coke, 1 pankcake was decently burned and the sausages were pink on the inside with a hint of red. Decent food, great drink, mediocre service read more

Southern fried chicken was dry overly breaded, skin and bones still in. In short difficult to eat. Slow cooked beef was fine. Service was great. Pricing was strange with too many up charges which were not expected. read more

I ordered a steak and chicken strips with loaded bake potato and side salad. chicken, potato and salad were all good. steak was ordered as medium. steak was cooked to at least a well done status plus very tough and even hard to cut with a sharp knice. I ate maybe 1/4 to 1/3 and took rest to go. thought would try it again later. finally ended up throwing out what I took home. can't ever remember getting a steak that tough anywheres. I didn't complain or comment on it to waitress as I dont normally do that. actually service was very good and rest of meal ok but definitely will never order a steak again there. read more

I was very excited to go to Cracker Barrel. I hadn't been there in years & had good memories of the place. The interior was the same as always. We went on Black Friday & the place was close to empty, that should have been a sign. I ordered the chicken & dumplings. It was a congealed mess. I ate about 2 bites. My husband ordered the catfish & he said it was super fishy. My daughter tried a bite of his & she said it tasted like a fish tank smells. My daughter had shrimp & she ended up getting sick & we had to head home early. Oh, also I had mashed potatoes & they were set up & broke off in chunks. Not edible! I told the waitress & she just smiled & said sorry as she handed us the check. We will never go there again. What happened to Cracker Barrel?? read more

It's been four years since my last Cracker Barrel review, but I've been there on and off, 2-4 times a year. I still enjoy the food very much. Took my 18-year old grandson for lunch and he ordered a huge breakfast off the b'fast menu: steak, hash browns, couple of scrambled eggs, grits, gravy, baking powder biscuits. He gobbled down almost everything. That's a teenager for you! I had a Chicken Pot Pie--huge and tasty. Took half home along with one biscuit and one corn bread muffin. Added some veggies to my leftovers and had them for supper. Only thing that made me uncomfortable was that our server and a few others did not wear masks. In other restaurants I've been to in the past 1-1/2 years, servers have always worn masks and I truly appreciated it. Otherwise, our server took very good care of us! Bathroom seemed clean. Lots of wonderful goodies in the shop, but didn't linger today. In this day and age of COVID-19, don't want to be indoors in a crowded situation such as Cracker Barrel's shopping area. Hopefully that situation will change soon. I like to get a head start on Christmas shopping and CB is a favorite shopping place. read more

The ambiance is warm and friendly. The staff works well to please. The food is always great as is selection.

The food at this Cracker Barrel was mediocre to poor. It just didn't take fresh. The ham was dry, the chicken was overly battered and tasted like it was cooked yesterday. I first ordered pork chops and had to return them because they were cold and looked like they were cooked hours before and heated in the microwave. I ordered green beans which had good flavor and the biscuit was good. I've visited CB's all over the country and this one was the worst. The server's apron was filthy. There was one big positive, a staff person was meticulously sanitizing random empty tables. My score is low mostly because of the food. read more

I'm really a fan of Cracker Barrel. The food servings are generous and tasty. Especially when we travel, we can always find one. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all just fine. We enjoy the decor. Each one is a bit different. The shop part is very unique. There are things there that you can't find anywhere else. read more

Good standby while traveling or for all- day breakfast... since the covid lockdown, we've been getting our comfort food fix! Their chicken fried chicken travels well...3 sides and biscuits! My hubby loves their meatloaf, which also travels well... really not a 4 star restaurant, but when you can't eat in... the speed, service, and comfort from their food warrants an extra star! read more

We stopped to eat and I will not eat there again. My sister and I had the chicken and dumplings. The food did not look like chicken and dumplings that I have ever had. Mostly dumpling (little pieces of dough) and the gravy was cold and very little chicken. I found 3 pieces of chicken in mine. The salad was good and the cole slaw was wilting and tasteless. My husband ordered a hamburger steak with mashed potato and broccoli. His meat patty was completely raw and potato's and broccoli was cold, he sent it back and they microwaved it. but the biscuits were good, read more

We had the cheapest and best dinner here on a Sunday night. Donna took great care of us and was super attentive. Our food came out very quickly, maybe 5 minutes tops. The chicken and dumplings are my favorite and my boyfriend had the fries chicken which was amazing! I love that you get to pick the sides from their list of about 15 options. Biscuits and corn muffins are delicious! Stewart's root beer is also a must. The country store is always fun to look around at, especially if there is a line for a table. Our total bill for two people was $25 which is soooo cheap! We both left super full and everything was great. read more
