Where do I start our server Mike or Michael acted as if he wanted to be ANYWHERE but there he asked us our drink order 2 cherry cokes and walked away before my wife could tell him which appetizer she wanted then when he did come back I mean there was so much ice in the glass there was barely any coke then the appetizers was brought by someone else so we had to wait to give him our order then he brought our cold ass food do they keep it under a fan in the fridge AND the biscuits and cornbread rolls were brought at the same time aren't you suppose to get them before your food comes I mean it was crap from beginning to end read more

Terrible service. Meat was way over cooked. Bacon was rubber. They charge extra for bread and a spoonful of apple butter. They have gotten very stingy on portions. Food quality is noticeably low. Not worth the visit. read more

As I said, I love to check out Cracker Barrel every time I go on vacation, but I usually have breakfast here. Since I just checked in next door, having driven hundreds of miles all day, I tried a dinner here; somewhat regrettably. The staff here is, as usual, very polite and attentive. That said, my eager waitress let me look through the many choices on the menu and I settled on their Cracker Barrel sampler (chicken n dumplings, meatloaf and ham). She let me choose three side dishes and a biscuit before letting me know that they were out of meatloaf. Now I should have re scoured the menu and chosen something else entirely. But, at her suggestion, I agreed to let them add more of the other two (which defeats the point of a sampler don't you think)? Anyway, what made this more disappointing is that the chicken (about 3 little pieces I could find) and dumplings was horrible. And the two little slices of ham were decent but real salty. My sides were okay; corn fries and fried apples that were the best thing I ate. In all, sadly, a disappointing meal on this vacation day, which is not something I ever want to incur. read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Two items does not a sampler make. When you're out of meatloaf, nix the whole dish! - American Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

Waitress was superb in serving my table. Foods were not pipping hot, but they were delicious, especially the cornbread. I wish there was more room in the bowl to crumble the cornbread in the pinto beans to throughly blended and not too dry. Thank you, Cracker Barrel, for the delicious meals and services!!! read more

The Chaffin Place Cracker Barrel seems to be in a downward spiral when it comes to quality control. My wife and I went to our local store today and I decided to try the bone-in chicken again. I had tried it when you first introduced it and sent it back. This had the same overcooked dried up taste, very dark hard skin. I don't know why you can't get it right read more

Had the very best server, which is Heather. She asked me what type of jellies I wanted she was prompt with the coffee excellent service and I will ask for her every time that I go back to Cracker Barrel. read more

The lady who took me to my table was very nice and I was seated right away. Although I have not eaten at this restaurant, my experience regarding the food quality at other Cracker Barrels have always been positive. Selected what I wanted and was ready to eat. Then, I sat and sat and sat. I saw at least 3 wait personnel in the small area I was seating, one made eye contact, yet nobody came to take my order. After waiting about 10 minutes, I decided to leave especially when I saw other people who came after me receiving their drink orders. As I was leaving the lady who sat me asked if anyone came by and I said no. She offered to get someone but at that point, I was finished with Cracker Barrel. The only one (in my opinion) who did her job was a lady named Wanda who took me to the table. The others failed horribly. This location, again in my opinion, has terrible service and I will not be eating at Cracker Barrel any time soon and never at this location. read more

We ate here on Saturday. This is the good Cracker Barrel in the Boro. There was a short wait for the table. Most of the staff were friendly. Our server was awesome! But the food was not up to the standards of Cracker Barrel. It didn't seem freshly made. The experience just felt weird. The menus had changed both in looks and in a few of the items. The croutons on the salad were bland and hard (not at all like the homemade ones they did away with since they were actually good and had flavor). They now bring your silverware, straws and napkins in this little basket. We were disappointed in the food and the experience outside of the server. read more

My wife and I are at this Cracker Barrel tonight (July 12). Not busy at all due to the boycott of this chain. My wife had the campfire chicken . It tasted ok she says however it's very sloppy and messy. As well there was a ton of pepper on it I had the chicken fried chicken with pinto beans and Mac and cheese. Over all it was ok but could easily tell it had been frozen . Next we ordered the slate caramel blonde . I was really looking forward to this but was a big let down. Nothing about it tasted like salted caramel. The brownie seemed hard maybe burnt . Customer service was lacking and over a all it just wasn't the best read more

The meatloaf can be up and down but it was def on point tonight. Cracker Barrel is the shit tbh. You got an issue get fucked.

Food was great, but my server Ethan was kinda rude the whole time. Just non attentive and dismissive, had a good time otherwise.

We're driving from Missouri to Florida and stopped in at this location last night! Per usual for a Cracker Barrel, you really can't go wrong with stopping at one while traveling (especially in this stretch). We arrived around 7pm and I have to say it was a challenge locating a parking spot, but we eventually found one! We had a slight 15 minute wait, but no complaints here! Actually, it makes me happy at this restaurant as it affords me the opportunity (and excuse) to shop in the Old Country Store for the best selection of seersucker clothing for the little ones! Once we were sat, we were greeted nearly immediately by Bibbs, our evening's waitress. She had an adorable southern accent that made the experience even better! She answered our questions and offered advice as needed. The food was typical to Cracker Barrel offerings, with the option to enjoy breakfast or dinner in evening hours. I personally ordered the Salmon Patties, which were a bit "fishy" for my liking, but still nicely paired with the zesty corn relish I requested (regularly served with their Trout dish). Needless to say, they did a great job getting us in and out to get back on the road! At the end, Bibbs greeted us farewell and said "Be good or be good at it" which made us all chuckle! Thanks, Murfreesboro Cracker Barrel! read more

Such a great experience! I was immediately greeted by a bright a smiley host, Sophie I believe, who led us to our table. A girl with an attitude like that is going places. Our server Abby was also attentive and make sure we felt welcomed. I had a delicious country fried steak. Will come again. read more

Always a great place for home style cooking! I love their breakfast a lot too! I went with my sister and they had the tables spaced comfortably for COVID safety! Staff wore masks and were even wiping the ketchup bottles and things between tables! They never disappoint read more

Tonight we ate at CB. There was 4 at our table. This was the BEST meal I have ever had at Cracker Barrel. Food was super hot, fresh. Waitress was amazing. Yummy!!! read more

Burnt meatloaf and smeared tomato paste over it to cover it up and manager did not care. Argued that that was the way that they make it. Horrible, horrible horrible. Wish I had taken a picture. Will be giving corporate the name of the manager. read more

Since when do you start doing small portions at cracker barrel because that's disappointing

Great plain country cooking! If you wonder about a chain of restaurants designed for interstate drivers, check out the plates on the cars. If they are local, that's a good sign that the locals believe that the food is good enough to drive to the interstate for a good meal. read more

Cracker Barrel is still the spot, even if it's only takeout now. Me and my family ordered the family packs available for customers now. My wife called the order in on Friday. Not only did they have it ready when they said they would at 9am, but it was a bit before. The food was piping hot and ready when I got there. Me and the family enjoyed the pancakes, hash browns, and bacon. They also had some breakfast bowls that came with our order. Haven't had mine, but my wife said it was great. Once again, nothing like Cracker Barrel!!!!!! read more

Any other time this Cracker Barrel is top notch, but not so much today. We waited 18 minutes for a table , which wasn't a big deal since we knew the wait times would be extremely long due to the Thanksgiving holiday and was originally told 25 minute wait. We were seated and waited ten minutes for our server to come and get our drink order and since we had set there for that long we already knew what we wanted, so we went ahead and placed our order. Our waitress went to put our order in and was back within a couple of minutes to tell us that there is a 30 minute wait on the dressing (for the Thanksgiving Meal" so we decided to wait and requested her to bring our corn bread on out with our drinks. She brought them and our drinks and told us that she gets off at 2:00 and what like for us to go and pay for our food so she can cash out. My hubby was a little skeptical since we were having to wait to wait 30 mins for our food. He went ahead and paid for our meal. We were assuming she was wanting her tip before she left. Our meal was brought out by our waitress ( the one that supposedly gets off at 2) and it was 2:18. She told us that she would have a coworker come and check on us. We thanked her and she went on. Dressing was cold and not good like it usually is. Wasn't pleased with the meal at all. We didn't have anyone come and check on us and my hubby was out of tea for 25 mins and finally got someone's attention which was the manager and he brought him a glass back out. But I wasn't offered a refill nor were we asked if we needed anything else. Customer service was seriously lacking today. We're not really sure that we will go back. It was a different experience today. We were not happy with the service or the meal. Very disappointed in the service. read more

I realize Cracker Barrel is a chain and the food is pretty consistent from one location to the next, but this place was run smoothly, was organized, and really took care of their customers on a very busy Sunday afternoon rush. We had eaten at Nobody's the night before (across the street at the Clarion where we stayed) and spent most of the evening sick to my stomach...regretting going there. So, Sunday morning, after we checked out and packed up the car, I told my hubby that I needed comfort food. I needed something warm, loving, familiar that wouldn't make me feel worse. We looked up and saw the Cracker Barrel sign and knew all would be well. The place was packed (being an after-church Sunday) and the wait for our table was about 15 minutes. However, the store was decked out for the holidays with such gorgeous items that we shopped and perused the the store while waiting for our table. We were seated with a smile and our waitress was friendly, courteous, and you could tell she loves her job. The food came quickly and really hit the spot! Just what we needed. My hubby had a cheeseburger and fries and I had the chicken and dumplings with green beans and mac 'n cheese. This food truly saved my "life" that day and I felt so much better. Again...you know Cracker Barrel is pretty consistent across the board, but even on this frenetic Sunday full of people and kids and everyone wanting food and attention, the staff took care of us and the restaurant was just what we needed. Thanks so much for caring and doing a great job! ***Note...AMAZINGLY beautiful Christmas tree ornaments. Bought four and got one free. Great deal! read more

LAUREN for Emplyee of the Century! With one day remaining in their "get a breakfast bowl free with order' Doordash dropped the ball by NOT DELIVERING our two free bowls and directed us back to Cracker Barrel when we called. New Hospitality Relations Employee Lauren not only delivered our breakfast bowls ON HER WAY HOME but also added two pieces of CHOCOLATE CAKE. What a totsl surprise! THAT girl is going places...and I don't mean just to our house to deliver food!! read more

Horrible staff on the morning crew. Tried calling ahead of time to place an order and they didn't answer. Went to the store in person and took them 20 minutes to finally take my order. Not to mention the manager on shift was rude and inconsiderate. read more

Best place for pancakes. Nice crispy corners with warm syrup. Best hasbrown casserole! We usually come here once a week to have some really good breakfast with a great deal. All items are under $10! You can also sit outside in one of their rocking chairs as you wait for a table and play some checkers. Their store carry some adorable clothing and fun toys. read more

Poor service and poor management. Curbside pick up was over 30 minutes late and food was cold and not edible.

our server lucas was very nice and always made sure we were satisfied. the food was as good as always. but i got there a little after my husband and he had been walking around the store. after dinner we went to shop around the store and at 9:50 one of the workers asked us if we were ready to go (keep in mind they close at 11) she basically kicked us out of the store. my husband who had been shopping around said that everywhere he went that same employee followed him like he was going to steal something. to me and many others i'm sure is unsettling and rude. never again will i return if that employee continues to be there. read more

Service was very pushy for us to hurry and finish to leave. Our waitress, Ivy, had a rude attitude and was continuously clearing the table and asking for empty glasses when we weren't finished yet. Multiple different servers came by to ask if we needed anything else all within a few minutes of us finishing our food. Management was very rude and just fueled the problem. 0/10. Shawn was cool though. read more

Excellent food, awesome service, nice atmosphere, what's not to love? Try the fried chicken, you won't be disappointed.

I had the displeasure of visiting this restaurant, twice. Both times, the food was either not fully cooked or just awful. The food was very bland, no seasoning at all. Christine, the manager, was a very cold, rude, careless person. She smarted off, at the restaurant's mistake.....just a very cold, heartless soul. This was my personal experience with the restaurant and manager. Needless to say, I will never return to this place, nor recommend it. read more

Came here with my MTAC group and had a great experience. We had to wait on cornbread and it was a little burned. It's free though, so I didn't complain. But all our food was really good. read more

I know Murfreesboro is just a little college town and the turnover rate for restaurant employees is pretty quick so this review may or may not apply for very long, but our servers name was Andy and he was awesome! He was genuinely nice (as opposed to seeming fake like a lot of people in the restaurant industry) and very attentive! Personally, I love the food at Cracker Barrel, mainly because it's dependable and I always get the same thing. Never disappointed. read more

Some kid must of been playing with the candle selection, my husband went to grab a candle off the self and didn't notice one was half off the self below, needless to say it hit the round with FORCE, and not once did they ask if we were ok! Husband had shorts on and his legs were exposed. I was kneeling down looking at soaps when it hit so I got slammed by some of the glass, a little cut by my foot but I took care of it when I got home. Needless to say, we bought our 3 rocking chairs elsewhere! The one in Nashville is much nicer!!! The staff here is rude and seem to hate there jobs! read more

I travel frequently and so I've eaten at many Cracker Barrels across the country. This was the first time I can say the food was terrible! I placed a to go order for grandma's breakfast. I asked to sub out turkey bacon instead of pork bacon. I got back to my hotel to discover that, despite being correct on the receipt, they still gave me pork bacon. I tried to eat it, but it clearly had been sitting in grease for a while. Just inedible. Same thing with the hash brown casserole--dried out and inedible. If I wasn't so tired, I'd go back and request a refund. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and service was prompt (which is why I'm giving two stars instead of one). Unfortunately, they failed where it matters most...the food. read more

Country style cooking...great roast beef dinner. I went there with friends and loved it. It was kind of weird because my dish came out before my friends' but I didnt complain. Service was excellent, and this place is pretty good for home style, country cooking. Also, it was pretty cheap for the amount of food that they give you. ROAST BEEF DINNER....that is all the reason you need to go there....it was delicious. read more

The food was pretty good. The coffee tasted the same as any typical breakfast place, a bit weak. Our waitress was very nice and friendly. The food seemed to take a bit to come out. It did feel a little bit pricier than a typical breakfast restaurant. The shop was awesome with a nice selection of souvenirs. read more

they told us the wait would be 20-25 minutes for our party of 3 which was no problem. after waiting 40 minutes we asked how much longer and they said they had already called our name. we waited inside the store the whole time and none of us heard anything. we heard them say the same thing to a few other groups who also somehow missed their names. really poor customer service and they don't offer any pagers or text alerts for when your table is ready. read more

I have always loved Cracker Barrel, and will always love it. This morning I ordered the buttermilk pancakes, which were delicious! I've been to several Cracker Barrel's in various states and although this one was nice, it's not my favorite just based on personalities of the workers. Not too happy, not too rude. Just bland. I expect super southern service at a Cracker Barrel and this one is just average. read more

Overall not what I expected. The chicken and dumplings was cold and chalky with 98% dumplings and 2% chicken. The sides of turnip greens and lima beans were also cold. The saving grace was the young lady who helped me, she wasn't even my server, but she went out of her way to make everything right. read more

I love the customer service this place provides! But other than that... Sorry I found the food to be blah! I I ordered chicken and dumplings, umm gross and it came out cold! The corn bread was extremely dry and my baked apple side was cold. (When it was suppose to be hot) the only thing I would eat here is the carrots and the chicken with rice!! Don't waste ur money!!! read more

Ordered hash browns extra crispy and waitress noticed they weren't cooked properly and asked them to be cooked more, but brought me my eggs so my eggs were cold by the time the hash browns arrived and I eat them together so it wasn't timely. Why does toast arrive unbuttered, without butter? Now, I wait additional time for butter for my toast so eggs are really cold and now so are hash browns. If an order is delayed, please don't allow one item to become less than acceptable while compensating for another, and bring butter with the toast the first time. To all Cracker Barrel's: we don't want to dig smidgens of hard, cold butter out of six packages to put on hot pancakes or toast. Please bring us room temperature butter in something easier to get to so our foods warm by the time we butter it. Lastly, we appreciate the vintage signs you have hanging up, but not sure the KOOL Cigarette sign is appropriate in a non-smoking, family setting. read more
