Had a great lunch. Food was excellent. Joe, the manager was VERY nice and helpful with a little medical situation outside the place and really helped a lot. Give this guy a raise! read more

I came here on Thanksgiving and the place was packed! I'm talking two hour waits - for this place that is kind of insane - for this day they had a limited menu which included a turkey dinner plate, country fried turkey, chicken n dumplings, country fried steak or breakfast - honestly not a terrible offering more than other places! I got the country fried turkey with dumplins and mashed potatoes - my turkey was delicious, juicy and tender but the dumplins were more sauce then dumplin and were luke warm. The potatoes were also cold. I understand the place was busy but if anything that should be more of a reason to serve hot food! The waitress was amazing - ashlyn was very attentive and did her best running around accomodating everyone! read more

Cracker Barrel is such a reliable stop. It's typically got great business for weekend lunches. You can ask for the extended breakfast menu if you're wanting breakfast beyond "breakfast" time. While waiting for your food they have the little triangle peg game to pass the time or you can go play some checkers nearby. Our food was as expected and filling! I enjoyed the apple cinnamon pancakes a lot. Also helpful - if you're in a hurry on the way out, use the QR code to pay so you don't have to wait in line for the cashier. read more

Thought I ordered two lunch meals on their app. However when I get down there evidently you did not go through so no big deal,... It was Christmas Eve at 12:00 for lunch Rush so they were super busy. The young lady Sarah B was in charge of the takeout and she was the food runner. I told her what was going on and she took my order said it would be a couple minutes which was no problem. I paid for it and it came back out 10 minutes later and time I got home it was hot fresh and delicious. It was her famous chicken and dumplings in case you were worried about it. read more

Waited 10 minutes before we were acknowledged, another 15 before we got drinks and another 45minutes till we inquired about our food and it had not even been cooked yet so we left. Unacceptable for breakfast food, yall lol go to Waffle House read more

The service was terrible a our waitress was fine but she was literally telling us to come and complain because how bad this place was we sat down at 7:30 didn't get our food until 9:30 they close at 9. Didn't get half of our food that we ordered or people at our table didn't get food. they didn't feel like making the food that was missing, they was out of all of the food and didn't tell us. this is the worse place to eat. worse than Pizza Hut. I Wish I could give a 0. read more

We love going to Cracker Barrel. We love the homestyle meals and also the shopping in their little gift shop. I hope the gift shop never goes away. We went on a very busy Saturday afternoon and all the tables were taken, but there was not much of a wait. I had the chicken and dumplings, which are always really good but no matter how many times I have this there's always either a lot of chicken and no dumplings or a lot of dumplings and no chicken. The ratios are never on. Service was great even though they were really busy. read more

Okay.... It's been more than 10 years since I've dined at a Cracker Barrel. I believe I was with my Mom in Georgia last time I went. I was curious so I brought it up to my Mr. since we were in the area. We dined on a Friday night and it was super busy, however we were seated right away. Our server was down to earth and got our drink orders right away. The pricing went up a little but that's everywhere due to inflation. They did expand their menu and added more lunch and dinner items. I ordered the Country Fried Steak and opted to pick two sides. Their hash brown casserole, steamed broccoli and chose corn muffins as my starch. My Mr ordered the Chicken and Dumplings with side of mashed potatoes and turnip greens. Opted for biscuits as his starch. While we were waiting we played their famous peg game and I did pretty good. We received our food less than 15 minutes. Honestly, I was expecting the food to be decent but it was actually really delicious. My Mr had so much that he had to get a to go box. After we ate, we looked around in the store and we purchased two Christmas ornaments and added it to our bill. This place is definitely laid back and has so much to offer. Still had the same taste and quality 10 years ago. I can see us coming back. read more

The service was not great. Took a while to get drinks and refills and the salad came out after the meal. All of the food was bland with little flavor. The only good thing was the value for how much food you got. The order was also wrong as well. The atmosphere was dead as well. Not good at all, won't be back! read more

I've never been to a cracker barrel until I moved to Ohio. They don't have a cracker barrel in Southern California but I've always heard of it. This was the second time I went to a cracker barrel in Ohio but first time at this Milford location. My friend was in town from California and she wanted to try it so here we were. I like this establishment, even though I'm not a breakfast person, because the food is pretty good and actually pretty affordable. My husband really enjoyed the food and he ordered - I think he ordered the old timers. I ordered the two biscuits with bacon and that was good. My friend ordered the grandma's special which had a lot of items. She enjoyed her breakfast although she thought the country ham was salty - I tried it and I thought it was good! At least for me. It must be her taste buds lol. Overall the food was really good and I really enjoyed the pancakes - there was a nice crisp to them and I should have ordered more. Even though the food was good, I'm giving this only three stars because our service was just okay. Our server didn't seem like she wanted to be there lol and when my friend ordered coffee - the server cut her off and said that their coffee machine was broken. But then we saw other servers and including our server provide coffee to other tables. I'm not sure if she misheard my friend but she clearly told us that the coffee machine was broken... So I don't know what's up with that. read more

My lady and I usually aren't big on chain restaurants, but we were going to be in the area of this Cracker Barrel location, so we thought we'd stop by for dinner. Overall, it was a better than I'd expected. I'd been to a different location years ago and was a bit underwhelmed by the food especially. This time, I can honestly say I liked it. We rolled in on a Friday evening around 6pm. They were already pretty busy, but still, we were seated right away. Of course, we had to traverse their country store before getting to the dining area, which can be a challenge during busy times. Still, it's hard not to pause to check out all their offerings as well as the nostalgic decor all around. Our server was super friendly and very attentive. She took our drink order almost as soon as we sat down. Their menu is much bigger than I recall and loaded with classic southern cooked goodness. After some perusing, my lady decided on the country fried steak with broccoli and hash brown casserole, and I went with the chicken and dumplings with mashed potatoes and turnip greens. Even though they were busy, we didn't wait long as all before everything was ready, and it was all good too. Even the biscuits and corn bread muffins were tasty. My lady really enjoyed her chicken fried steak and hash brown casserole. My chicken and dumplings was excellent as well. Plus the price was very nice because it's tough to get a truly good meal for two for under $25 these days. Even for fast food sometimes. After our dinner, we had to look around more at the country store, and ended up getting two cool Christmas ornaments (a mini Atari 2600 one for me and a pizza one for my lady). I have to say that this experience was much more enjoyable than the one I had years ago. I can see why so many people frequent Cracker Barrel now. I could see myself possibly coming back to this one especially since there are so many more options to try. read more

I'll start by saying the one star is not for service. Our server was lovely. She was kind and helpful and it was a very busy rush for lunch. I haven't been to Cracker Barrel in years and I thought it would be fun for my kids. They enjoyed the table game, and looking around the store. The food however was just awful. When it comes to pancakes and chicken tenders I'm not sure how to butcher either so badly that no one wants to eat their food. The pancakes were so oily and crunchy with just a stale fried taste to them. The chicken tenders were rejected by my kids, who begged me to never take them back for food here. This is the exact opposite of what you'd like to hear as a parent trying to do a fun lunch out on a day off from school. Especially when that meal was outrageously priced. Another added note, they had the fireplace on which was a nice touch, but the temperature in there had to be 85°+ with all the customers. It was too hot. read more

It's been years since we stopped at a Cracker Barrel. Apparently they serve alcohol now ‍ our food was ok, nothing special. Everything was very bland (eggs, biscuits, pancakes). The "gift shop" was full of overpriced, glitter filled tackiness. I think we'll skip stopping here in the future. read more

This was my first time at a Cracker Barrel and I was pretty impressed. Loved the old country vibe inside, got seated pretty quickly for it being Saturday brunch time. I got the Grandma's sampler meal. The eggs were fine, the hash brown casserole was pretty good, the meats were all too salty for my taste (my friend said it tasted fine to her so it was probably just me) and the bacon was good. What I was most impressed with though, were the pancakes! Super delicious, was going to save some but just couldn't stop cutting off another bite, and another, and another. Only disappointment was they were out of coffee and it was strange because I'm sure I kept seeing other tables have coffee served, both seated before and after us. read more

Had breakfast for dinner. Cheesecake stuffed pancakes were good. Came with bacon or sausage and strawberries and choice of eggs. Added a side of hash browns. Did call ahead seating. It said 15-20 minutes. We drove 15 minutes to restaurant checked in with host who happened to be the acting manager. My son and I spent some time looking around the store and played a game of checkers. Looked at my watch and it was 25 minutes later. I went up to the host stand and a woman was working and she said I was never checked in. The manager came back and I told him about it and that I wasn't happy. He said mistakes happen and turned his back to me. About 5-10 minutes later I got a text that our table was ready. He should have offered me something even a free dessert for each of us. So the 15 minutes wait time became 45 minutes. He never stopped by our table to see how things went. The food came before our drinks. Our waitress blamed it on the computer (really?) Our appetizer side came without the normal dipping sauce. They are understaffed because they were seating only 40% of the restaurant at best. The food was definitely quick. Our server was hustling. You pay in the store so that didn't slow her down. Pricing was reasonable. Ice teas were about $3 which has become the norm today. The hashed brown side of $3 was high for the small portion. I liked the baked apples side that I got. read more

The service is slow and the food sucks. I ordered a country fried steak with mashed potatoes and carrots. The country fried steak was grease soaked and the carrots were boiled or microwaved the potatoes were warm. Not what I expect from Cracker Barrel. read more

You are no longer able to order a piece of country ham for dinner. My husband always ordered the country ham with 2 sides of pinto beans for about $10.50. That's what he ordered and, instead of telling him about the menu change, they decided in back to give him a kids order of vegetables along with the ham and add another piece of ham (which was half fat) and charge him $17.00. Communication is non-existent. I ordered the Shepherd's Pie which came out almost black across the top. It was overcooked and I sent it back. A different server brought it back out saying it was fine and tried to encourage me to eat it. Then the manager (no name tag) came out holding it and argued with me. Did he really think I was going to eat it by then? No communication, no courtesy. We won't be back. read more

We walked in and there was literally no rhyme or reason to have 50+ people standing in the gift shop, elbow to elbow, with literally zero walking room. Where's the line for the bathroom end? In the line for a table. The line for the exit combined with the line for the check out. There literally is no where to go if there was an emergency. There were empty tables we could see thru the window but no way to even find anyone to see how long the wait would even be. DANGEROUS! Remove some of the crap so people can at least walk! read more

Terrible communication with the cooks an waitress an cause a uproar in the dining area . Got our food completely wrong an then found out that the cooks just lied an said was out of item cause they didn't want to make it. Was delt with very poorly by a young lady cause we were a large group of 11 people an she didn't want to serve that many, then she is on her phone most of the time taking pictures an laughing with her friend an not working. Never gave us refills or put out food order in til we got upset with her. Then once we left an paid our bill an went outside to our car the cook came out the back an flipped us the finger . read more

I had to leave cause the couple behind us sneaked in a dog all wrapped up like a baby and Was shocked to see it was a little dog. I'm ok with service animals that are trained but to have a dog in the chsir right there just isn't sanitary. We told the Manager but watched him do nothing about it. Very sad and we won't be going back to this business. read more

Had a good waitress who recommended the camp fire chicken. It was very good. The tea was very good as well. Biscuits came out fresh and hot. Place was clean and everyone was very friendly. I really enjoyed this location. Would recommend this location to anyone. read more

You know, I hadn't eaten at Cracker Barrel in years before coming here for dinner because of a gift card. But I was pleasantly surprised. The food was largely good and service was ok if not super attentive. We both got breakfast for dinner. My husband's pancakes were thin with delightfully crispy edges & CB gets points for serving with real maple syrup. My biscuits were lovely and fluffy with that little hint of salt and whisper of crunch on the top. The gravy was a bit gluey and lackluster so I opted to dip my biscuits in runny egg yolk instead. The eggs over easy were perfect as was the crispy-yet-chewy thick-cut bacon. I also liked the cheesy hash brown casserole (even if it seemed haphazardly slapped on the plate on top of the bacon). My husband also enjoyed a half lemonade half tea that was really good. Now the downsides: We did have to wait almost half an hour for a table on a Wednesday, which is not so bad when you can browse the store but there's only so much to see and it was quite crowded. I associate CB with weekend breakfast; didn't realize they do such a brisk dinner business. It took a while after we were finally seated to place our order and then to get food. The waitress started walking away without giving us any napkins which is honestly a huge pet peeve of mine--maybe drop a few things off while people are waiting for their food? There was a line again to pay for the meal at the end (though you can now scan a QR code at the table and pay from your phone--but not with a gift card). I don't know that I'll be back soon for the ambiance, but overall food was good and pretty cheap, on par with a lot of breakfast/diner style joints in the area. 3.5 stars but I'll round up. read more

This is a 51 minute drive from my home. And we went specifically for my birthday and mashed potatoes because that was my pregnancy crave of the day. I had ordered the chicken fried steak and had gotten a side of mashed potatoes and gravy, as well as a side of fried okra. When I had gotten my food, it was cold. However, I was determined to eat these mashed potatoes. I ate them, and as soon as I got to our vehicle, I threw it straight back up. The okra texture wasn't horrible at all. Probably the best okra I've had texture wise, but it had no flavor. I didn't even try to eat my chicken fried steak. I did, however get fried pickles as my appetizer and they were delicious fresh not soggy,crunchy. I've never had fried pickles that were so good in my entire life. My husband had gotten meatloaf and he enjoyed it a lot. My sister had gotten hamburger steak and she enjoyed her meal as well but she didn't really care for the mashed potatoes. My toddler had gotten the battered shrimp meal with hush puppies and fries, and he seemed to enjoy that as well. Our service was great. The ambience was as good as it could've been for being in Cracker Barrel. There was a party that was sitting directly behind us that was staring at us nonstop, even after we had left and gotten into our vehicles. Other than that they didn't bother us at all. I go back again just because my husband did enjoy his meal as well as my toddler, but I would not go back alone. read more

Our server Sophia was beyond amazing! The pancakes blew our mind as usual and whoever made the hash brown casserole this time hunnieeeeeee, all the yes! BUT... Why are the eggs cooked so hard they are like cardboard and they seem to have just the slightest shade of green. read more

Food was fantastic as always, but was a little disappointed they changed their breakfast menu. Getting ride of the yogurt parfait was a big mistake. This is what customers like my wife that can't heat eggs would usually order. This seriously restricted on what was available for her to eat. This has been our go to place for breakfast, but now we are forced to look elsewhere. read more

What a horrible meal! Ordered the "old timer breakfast" . Scrambled eggs - basic, bland. Hashbrown casserole - forst one came out half raw, potatoes still crunchy in the middle. Second time was cooked but bland, no spice, and the cheese was somehow slimey. Sausage also bland and overcooked to dry hockey pucks. Worst biscuts and gravy ever - like gray wallpaper paste. No spice, no flavor, no saisage pieces. Do NOT recommend. read more

If you've been to one you've been to them all. This particular location, however, always has friendly staff. Most recently, our waitress was so kind to us. It meant a lot for her to say, "Wow, you guys are so nice." We always treat our servers with respect and it was out of the ordinary to be recognized for that. I appreciate her spreading some positivity. She was a great waitress and even gave hubs a cod fish meal that's typically only offered on Fridays. I personally always get the country dinner plate for $7.99 with grilled chicken tenderloins, carrots and dumplings. I've never gotten anything but this, I love the combination of sweet carrots and hearty dumplings. I wish I could replicate whatever marinade they use for the tenderloins but I've never been able to. So yummy. Pro tip, substitute your biscuit for grilled sourdough and apple butter. read more

biscuits extremely small as well as the sausages very small cup of gravy had to scrape out the rest just to cover my biscuits . also my sausages were also burnt! our server didnt offer refills but at the beginning of our meal offered to go drinks and left the check as she served the meal. unbelievable ! ! Not sure we will ever go back to that one at all! highly disappointing. read more

First time here ... I had to try Cracker Barrel. Good ol comfort food that won't wow you but will hit that fat greasy spot :) I got what else but the artery clogging chicken fried steak ... they are generous with the gravy. The sides I got were the hashbrown casserole which I loved and mac n cheese can't go wrong. Ordered an extra side of fried okra which was blah. Overall I didn't have high expectations and thought the food was average and service was good. I just wanted the experience. read more

I love the pancakes here. They are cooked in so much butter the outside is very crispy. Cracker Barrel just brings up so many childhood memories for me. Now I bring my son here and he loves it too. I always enjoy browsing the store after eating too. They have some great old school candy. We've also had good service here. read more

*Food: Menu the same but way different preparation & portion. Creature of Habit ... Always same meal. Today: chicken & dumplings & 3 sides. Chicken & Dumplings: gravy looked & tasted like flour & water soup bland. I'd be surprised if there were 3-dumplings & ditto chicken tid bits! On to the 3-sides: Apples we brown & mostly peeling, bottom of pan or leftover. Mash Potatoes: dry, lumpy & cold. Okra: However, best of either dish ... fresh 'n hot! Ambiance: Waitress ... hope she doesn't depend on tips! Who got What, screw refills! One Guest of Four; got apples she didn't order, however, looked better than mine! Two Guest of Four; no onions & surprise ... Onions! Three Guest of Four; agrees with Me: Overall Experience should've ate somewhere else! Disappointing "NO Available! Definition: Yuck! read more

Just an FYI, I do not like this type of food/establishment but hubs loves them. So as a "treat" I offered to take him and if course he said, "yes." It had been close to 10 years since we'd been in one in the South. The staff were excellent in every way (friendly, fast service, professional) and the place was nice and clean. However, the food was disappointing and the taste/quality has gone downhill considerably since our last visit. The grits were watery, the potato casserole was tasteless and floury, the eggs were pale and tiny, and the sausage gravy was basically flour and water. This is not a reflection on this particular store but a reflection on the franchise itself. The cost of breakfast was definitely not worth it. Do yourself a favor and find a locally-owned diner or even McD's or Wendy's for breakfast. read more

Dr. Dixon the general manger right now is... :-( Thanksgiving dinner here is a tradition because we host Thanksgiving on Saturday. So this thanksgiving... The food has always been what you'd expect, this year 2016 under Dr. Dixon's leadership we found everything to be...well let's just say there had to be a turnaround. 2017 Thanksgiving no turkey nor many of the other things we hoped to eat but servers seemed more relaxed and that is a good thing/improvement. read more

I seriously love this place! Every time my kids and I visit my parents we come to have a fantastic dinner at the Milford Cracker Barrel. Use the Cracker Barrel app to get on the wait list before you even get there. We literally walked in, told the hostess we were on the online wait list and got a text 2 minutes later that our table was ready. Yummy!! read more

My husband and I had a lunch date while our kids was in school and he had a day off work. Our server (sadly, I cannot remember her name) was phenomenal. I tried the fruit tea, hands down the best tea I have ever had and I have had so many varieties - maybe I can be considered a tea connoisseur. The server did us a solid with the tea and it was so kind of her, I hope she was happy with the tip we gave! We tend to stick with what we like and know is good but have ventured the menu over our time eating here. On this trip, my husband got the grilled chicken tenders with mac and cheese. Cooked perfectly, as usual. I got the country fried steak with carrots. Also cooked perfectly. They never disappoint with food quality (especially the carrots - yum). The server was super attentive and very relaxed and nice. When dining with our kids, we let them share a dessert, they are always big portions that are definitely kid shareable. My real only complaint about this location is the crowded shopping part. With Covid running around trying to ruin everyones good time, I feel like they should allow less people to be in that area at once since it's so confined. Maybe they could adapt the same system Red Lobster has with the beepers that go off when the table is ready? There is always a wait time for this location so it could be beneficial to both customers and staff. Well, I guess I have two complaints. The take-out isn't great. Once my daughter and I had very burned burgers and once my husbands tenders was very dry. Just things like that to where I assume it's because they are always so busy inside that they may forget about the to-go orders. Side cups (i.e. honey mustard, mayo, etc) aren't always in the bag either. Again, I assume it's because the inside is so busy. We just stopped doing to-go for dinner time. Lunch isn't as bad as dinner. We feel pretty safe with the quality of lunch but not dinner. read more

Gave this location 4 stars three years ago. We don't go here too often but as of late, there's a real reason to take away some stars( The prices have gone up and the value of the food has gone way down. I ordered the french dip and it appeared as though I ordered a sauted onion sandwich with a small amount of meat to top it off. I should have snapped a pic of the pile of onions laying on my plate and the empty bun after I removed them:( Normally on a Sunday at noon they are packed but not this time and I am wondering if that is the new norm. We live very close to this location and we eat out very often but we'll take our money else where. read more

I ordered scrambled eggs and the eggs were not fully scrambled or cooked. The egg whites were still runny. I told her I couldn't eat them that want so she offered to bring me 2 more eggs.
