After years of avoiding chain restaurants, we've become genuine Cracker Barrel fans -- and this location reminded us exactly why. The menu strikes a great balance of consistent favorites and seasonal specials. We keep coming back for the meatloaf and mashed potatoes, which never disappoint, and we always look forward to the country fried turkey when it's on offer. Save room for dessert -- the chocolate cola cake and carrot cake are both outstanding. Breakfast is equally impressive, with a wide variety of solid options to start the day right. As RVers, we also appreciate that most Cracker Barrel locations welcome overnight parking, making it easy for us to enjoy a relaxed dinner and a great breakfast before hitting the road. The shop is a fun bonus too, with a nice range of seasonal and everyday items. Service at this location was excellent -- friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we walked in. Highly recommended whether you're passing through or a regular. read more

Usually, at this Cracker Barrel location you are looking at a 1-2 hour DINING experience (re: slow service). Happy to report that this was not the case this morning. Katie was our server and she was nothing short of pleasant and prompt. She communicated well and spoke up on our behalf regarding overdone pancakes (she didn't even leave the kitchen with the first round). Great experience, hopeful this is the new normal! read more

The first meal back at CB since they jumped off the rails corporately and my wife and I had a good experience. Brittany F was friendly and helpful while serving us and immediately rectified the problem with my wife's meal. I had the chicken and dumplings and they were very good. The steamed broccoli was outstanding. Good biscuits and cornbread muffin. read more

We met family here as we were traveling through town. Orders were taken as soon as we got a table. It took 1.5 hours to get our food! The place was busy but nowhere near full. I have no idea why it took so long. read more

The Strawberry Cheesecake Pancakes were amazing. Our server was Christen. She was attentive and her infectious smile and attitude made our visit very pleasant and a great start for our day. read more

I got a crispyrockin shrimp kids meal because I wasn't that hungry I order a side of hush puppies and dumplings with beignets, sauce syrup and cocktai. No dumplings nor either sauces. Y'all need to do better because sometimes I get kids meals when I'm not that hungry and y'all don't even care if half the stuff is in there, is sad asf!!!!!!! read more

Good food, but Service? This location is good for the most part. About half the time you'll have a bad experience where you wait forever. It's really is 50/50 I eat here a lot still though but it just depends. Servers are pretty good, but just know you're going to wait minimum of an hour, with waiting forever taking 2 hours of your time. Overall, know you're going to wait but the food is pretty good and pleasurable. read more

Food not as good but still great service and. One of.lppd favorite places love the store the service was great and ambience

Over charged our ticket $10.00and the couple we were with $12.00. We took a menu and supported our charge errors and the manager said the charges were correct. I got 2 hairs off the bottom of my plate but did not alert anyone because it would mess up the rest of the table. Our waitress was Dana B or Abbie. Management needs more training to be able to train her staff. read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Our ticket for 2 breakfasts 8.99 and 2 drinks 2.99. - Southern Near Me - Jasper, Alabama

Yeah So the fried chicken was bad too much batter and you couldn't taste the seasoning. The chicken tenders weren't good and I thought they would be small so now I have four chicken tenders and I don't know what to do with them. The fries were okay and the macaroni tasted like watered down cheese. The greens were supposed to taste fresh but they tasted canned. Hamburger steak was over cooked (no wonder it took them so long to make). The sprite didn't have to much lemon so that's good (I don't like too much lemon). The staff was very nice though so that's good. Very unclean bathrooms (not sure if that's pee on the floor.) read more

See all

Food was bland. Corn muffins had absolutely NO taste. Meat loaf was horrible and I threw most of it away. Overall terrible food. Don't waste your money. read more

When I got their they had absolutely no wait to be seated. The waitress that I had was very friendly. They had amazing food, I ordered the steak and it was cooked perfectly. The bathrooms were very clean, along with the rest of the restaurant. This was a very good experience for me. I definitely would eat here again ,and I would definitely recommend this to a friend. read more

In the middle part of December, my wife and wanted to have a crackle barrel breakfast. I ordered biscuits and link sausage. She got biscuits. We both had soft drinks. I remember what it used to be like. It had a great breakfast With Uncle Hershel's breakfast. These biscuits tasted like the kind you get in the frozen section and you microwave the food. Our waitress came by for drinks food and check.needless to say I will not waste my money here any more as I remember I felt it was pricey for what we were charged. Get back to the way you used to have breakfast and I will give you all the stars and sing your praises. It was cold outside the logs were there to be lit. We were both cold read more

Food ok. Beware: if you order breakfast, it will be lunch before you get it! Sloooooow service.

The food took a while to come out, and it was mediocre at best. The waitress was excellent and very helpful. The kitchen needs to step up!

Went for an unexpected supper there tonight and got meatloaf and sides. The food took longer than expected since it wasn't crowded, but we had a new server and knew we probably should just be patient. She kept tea coming and got our food out and it was hot when it came and all was cooked grest and tasted good. read more

Service was good breakfast not so much , gravy was thick as pudding, tasteless except for the familiar taste of uncooked flour , really ? Do you know how easy it is to make decent gravy? Bacon./ sausage drippings with flour stir add SALT and PEPPER , when browned a little and ( flour is cooked) then add enough milk so it's not "pudding gravy" I can make better gravy blind folded . Sausage was dry and worthless no fat at all in it barely had any flavor an obvious sign it's been cooked way too far in advance to make it easy on the cook . Biscuits were heavy just basically a chunk of dough . Coffee was fantastic! (2 stars) eggs ok , grits not seasoned at all . Do yourself a favor grab a egg McMuffin across the street and a cup of coffee and keep driving, you'll save time and money and get a decent bite to eat . Manager you Better get a hold of this cook before you're the first Cracker Barrel in History to have to close down. How many negative reviews do you have to get before things get turned around here? Obviously you've hired a customer service person to give a canned response " I'm sorry for your experience " apparently an Ai bot could do that a lot cheaper . Evidently she's just getting a check for nothing . Good luck lol read more

Eggs not cooked to order, ham dry and over cooked. No biscuits, gave us corn bread and said it was biscuits. Should have read the reviews before going there!! read more

Despite the rising numbers of the Delta variant in Covid masks were not enforced and NOT worn. No additional safety precautions whatsoever. Service was extremely slow. Just needed a bit to eat while traveling. But will search for another spot in the future. Do NOT recommend this location. Will NOT return. read more

I ordered the hamburger steak today with mashed potatoes and green beans. It was everything I thought it would be! The portion was perfect, my food was hot, and the onions were cooked great! I never have a bad experience here. If you want some good southern home cooking, this is the place to go!!! read more

I had dinner here last night. I rate this location 2 star only because the waitress Shelby was great! The food was the worst I have ever had at a Cracker Barrel. I had meatloaf , cream potatoes, okra and pintos. Everything tasted like it was leftover from two days ago. The cornbread was harder than a cookie! Don't eat here! read more

Great food and love the country fried steak here! The tea is great and love all the stuff they have In the gift shop and i believe all the food is great here read more

Best food and service we have had in a very long time Very impressed. Server Maria was very friendly and informative and food was excellent read more

Don't expect to get a decent sized portion of anything in your to go orders anymore. Order dumplings and get a couple with the rest being broth. Also won't give you jelly for biscuits anymore even when you ask politely. I am just praying that they realize that they made a mistake when they switched all the fried chicken batter over to that awful over seasoned mix that they use to only put on the Sunday special chicken. Ugh!!! Can't even eat my favorite chicken fried chicken dish from there anymore because of that bad judgement call. Anyways, the people are always super friendly in the store which is what you usually get in life. Either good food or good service, It never seems to be both. read more

We got take out for Thanksgiving. Well little to be desired. When you looked on website it said do not order by app. We called to order they said give them 2.5 hours. They said ready 30 min. They said we could order using app? No where does it say no substitutions we tried to order extra sides . They sent text can't fill order don't substitute or get sides. We get up to Resturant order incorrect 3 times before close to what we ordered. Will not do this again. read more

We ordered curbside, and waited a hour for the order to cook then when we checked in we waited 30 minutes for our food and it never came out to us! We have to go in and get it, and it had been sitting out the whole time on the counter. Wtf customer service is this, can't even get orders out to cars in under a hour and thirty minutes? read more

Great service, delicious food. The place was crowded but the staff handled it with ease!

Boy where do I start traveling from Oregon through going to the East Coast I decided to stop for a late lunch at this place in the parking lot were these small tiny puppies some people were swerving to not have them and some people were deliberately trying to hit them my heart just sank I went in the store to talk to the manager to let her know and she was fully aware that they were out there she said she didn't appreciate that I didn't feel that she cared about them seeing that they've been out there for about a month now I questioned her and asked her why haven't you called animal control or why haven't you taken them to somewhere safe her response was when we put a post up on Facebook I was so angry I called the local Police Department of Jasper and they told me they're not excepting any more animals so I profusely kept calling repetitively the animal shelter and finally got a hold of a girl she basically was telling me the same thing and I asked her do you not care about animals then why are you in your profession if you're an animal shelter isn't it your job to protect these animals I think once that I said that she realized and said that they would contact the local sheriff and have them come and pick up the puppies I never did get my food I walked out I will not support any Cracker Barrel after that experience and trust me come tomorrow morning Monday I will be making phone calls to corporate Cracker Barrel it doesn't matter if they don't do anything at least I feel that my voice is heard, if you ask why I didn't take the puppies with me it's because my car is completely packed I have nowhere to put them nowhere but outside of a truck and I have no cage to put them in otherwise I would've took them in a heartbeat it's very upsetting when animals they don't asked to be brought in the world through long are hungry it's our job to make sure that they're taken care of favor next time you see your animal like that don't give up keep calling and calling until you get someone to listen because our voices are for those dogs cats birds etc. I guess she rather find an easier to scrape up a dead puppy then to make a five minute phone call or a 10 minute trip to an animal shelter please people when you see animals like those don't just leave him stay there I text somebody help the poor animal it's not fair to them read more

This review is solely based on the food. I ordered fried chicken tinders. Thought it would be nice big chicken fingers freshly made and dipped in butter milk. Wrong. It was frozen lunch room chicken fingers. Had a side of collared greens and they had too much spices and meat to cover up the fact that they were canned or frozen. The green beans were blah and so were the basic fries. This food does not represent southern comfort. They need to stick a drive thu window on the place so it's more accessible to the fast food taste it really is. Pass....... read more

We visited on a long road trip in a very rural area! Honestly seeing Cracker Barrel felt like salvation after driving aimlessly with nowhere to stop and eat! I had the sirloin with house salad and corn! I was pretty pleased with my meal except the corn had all the freshness taken out of it! I imagine it had been cooked to long! The steak was cooked as ordered and was well seasoned. My boyfriend had the Apple Cider Chicken which was on the lighter fare menu but I would definitely say as for an extra veggie because I felt this portion was very small. Biscuits were great! I love Cracker Barrel for it's consistency no matter where you visit their restaurant. read more

They make you wait 15 minutes so you'll look around in the store saying that they're waiting for tables open up but you get in there and there's all kinds of tables open the food was OK not Nothing to brag about the service is OK don't think I'll go back read more

We haven't been here in a long time. We came three times after it opened and it was horrible service that is not the food. Food was good. We decided to try it again just to see if things had improved, they have improved significantly. Now it was the middle of the afternoon it wasn't regular meal time. We had about a five minute wait but service was quick and we got what we ordered quickly and Ms Dana was an excellent server. Meat loaf and veggies were excellent too. Much improved!!! read more

We were on the road traveling and stopped for a hot meal. Hubby and I both ordered the same thing Country Fried Steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn, and green beans. The meal came with a choice of cornbread or biscuits. It was plenty of food nice and hot. We also ordered dessert, I ordered apple pie and hubby ordered Buttermilk pie, it was really good and the better of the two desserts. A good place to stop when you are hungry! read more

Amazing!! Customer service is 10 stars service is 10 stars food is 10 stars!!!! Thank you for a wonderful breakfast experience for my service dog and me !!!!! Bella enjoyed her bite of eggs!! read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Katie and bell!!! - Southern Near Me - Jasper, Alabama

Manager, Laura, is not professional at all here. Our waitress, Cameron was the sweetest waitress ever! The kitchen was having issues preparing the right order making it hard on our waitress. When we told the manager she just kind of nodded then walked away. I love Cracker Barrel as a restaurant, but would not recommend this one in particular for those who are searching for a good experience read more

There food is usually always good. The hostess was very friendly. A little difficult to figure out exactly where the restaurant was because of the lack of a sign at the end of the street. Please put your sign closer to the entering road. read more

Our waitress gave us the wrong ticket and when Mom confronted her about it she said she gave someone ours and the manager and her both tried to get us to pay the $36 ticket. Said it was cheaper then our own. When we demanded our original ticket it turns out ours was over $10 cheaper. Only $24. The fact that the manager lied to our face just makes me so angry. They tried to rip us off to pay someone else's ticket. Of course the people who got ours took that ticket and ran! read more

Food from here gets progressively worse and worse each time I visit. Incomparable to any other Cracker Barrel location in the southern US. Portion size is terrible compared to price and tonight our waitress had a terrible attitude. Waited 45 plus minutes for our food to be cooked and brought out and my sweet tea glass stayed completely empty for a solid 20 minutes. read more

Seven tables occupied (I take into account 2 were larger parties. Also I have worked food service before for this company. However after waiting 10 minutes at host station with no regard from wait staff or any staff then eight minutes after being seated before any acknowledgement from staff again. What was to be a leisurely breakfast before work is now a rushed breakfast due to staff. I seen 6 people in aprons running around like it was a first day for them all. I will say my order was taken did come out quickly. Paying was yet another issue as I had to wait on some one to even be at the register or in that part of establishment Just terrible. I dont recommend or plan to come here again read more

This manager Zack needs a vacation!! He was grossly understaffed at 1pm for lunch. Large amount of vacant tables with many frustrated customers stuffed like sardines in their gift shop waiting to be seated. We didn't take it out on our server by not tipping, but you normally do not expect to dedicate over an hour of your trip just to grab lunch. Today we should have grabbed a quick sandwich to go elsewhere. Unfortunate, unnecessary situation. Just need better management. read more
