Food not as good as it used to be. This is the second time my green beans have not been seasoned. They were straight from the can. Had the new seasoned rice this time. It needs more seasonings but it went well with my grilled chicken. Chicken was very good. The rest of my party enjoyed their food. Also got the new(returning item) icebox pie. It was revamped to graham cracker crust and had added strawberries. It was excellent! See my photo ( sorry, I ate some of it before remembering to get a pic). Staff was attentive and took care of all our needs. Had the usual cozy atmosphere that everyone expects. read more

The management people that made all the changes need to be sent packing. The food choices are not as good and cost much more. I always got fried chicken and greens. Now chicken only on certain days. The greens always had ham...now no ham. Must admit the pork chops were very good. They have cut personal but the ones left really try to do a good job. Bottom line is no more CB for me. read more

Place was NOT busy at all (5:30 on a Friday) so issues were NOT because they were "slammed". Would give ZERO stars if Yelp allowed it. Service was slow / not attentive. Meatloaf was dry & mashed potatoes were nasty / looked glazed / like left overs & were almost cold. did not bring biscuits until dinner was served. Food, in general, was not hot but only slightly warm. Made me wait on part of order integral to being able to begin eating.. Did not bring enough jelly for a table of 5. Watied a LONG time for server to come back to ask for jelly and gave up. Asked manager and she only gave me 3 jellies (had someone else deliver them with zero follow up). Wanted Ketchup for meatloaf but server never came back in time for me to ask for it. No one ever asked how the food ws / tasted. Manager never checked back but had the gall to say "come see us again" as we are leaving. read more

The food was great I had the New York Steak shrimp combo the price was well worth it. I had a server name Trey he was great and check up on us not too often but just good enough... are food was ready in about 15-20 minutes and it was me and 3 members of family read more

I had Aly as my server she was amazing!!! It was my birthday and she made me very pleased with everything the food was amazing I had the momma pancakes with eggs and bacon!!! And food was ready in about 10-15 minutes read more

Very dependable We like that Cracker Barrel trains its servers and cooks We like the down home ambiance of Cracker Barrel And we like the abundance of Cracker Barrel on I-75 Our goal is to arrive around 11:00AM We seem to spend about an hour at Cracker Barrel read more

I used their website to place a pickup order. I waited on the order where instructed. The hostess asked for my name on the order to check on it. Didn't hear a word. Cancelled the order after waiting an hour only to be told it didn't go through. Well then why didn't the hostess say, "Excuse me, what was the name?" Never again! I was told I should go to Berea, next time I'll listen. read more

The food at Cracker Barrel is still good but the menu has been changed. A lot of old favorites have been removed and replaced with choices that are not as good. The service is always good. The place still has the decor and the good selection in the shopping side of the store. read more

Great service. Friendly staff. The runny eggs are my favorite. We alsways find something fun and unique in the gift shop.

November 21, 2022 Asked for bread 3 times. When Lauren the waitress finally brought it. No plates, no butter, no jams...ask for new waitress. Eventually another waitress came, again nothing but bread...lukewarm. After 25 minutes ask for Manager...fat girl came out, said she didn't appreciate us disrespecting her waitress by not letting her wait on us!?!?! This restaurant was NOT busy, 3:30 pm... Get better trained staff...including so-called manager who NEVER asked us what was wrong, just came out accusatory! read more

$26 for this steak and egg? What is this, 3-4 ounces? What a f****** joke. Never again- an absolute ripoff. Oh and one miniature maple syrup for a whole plate of pancakes. I hope your sorry sack of a restaurant goes under. read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Supposed to be a steak - American Near Me - Richmond, Kentucky

If you've ever read any of my breakfast spot reviews, you know that I meet my parents every Sunday for breakfast. When they suggested Cracker Barrel, I wasn't terribly excited but it was their turn to pick. Plus they pay so I kept my mouth shut. When you walk in, you are immediately overwhelmed by a vast floor full of cheesy souvenirs, ugly clothes that you would likely find on old women on a cruise ship, and many other Knick knacks. When you finally make your way to the hostess stand you put your name on a list. We probably waited all of two minutes before we were shown to our table. So that was a good omen. The menu was disappointing. No eggs Benedict. Bad omen. So I thought ok, biscuits and gravy. How can I go wrong with that, right? Well, they figured out a way. They brought me out an empty plate, put a basket of cold biscuits in the middle of the table and a bowl of warm gravy near my plate. I've never seen a breakfast that was just so wrong. My parents had pancakes and the sad their breakfast was fine. It's hard to mess up pancakes. But that's what I thought about biscuits and gravy. Even though my parents had an ok experience, given my terrible experience, I seriously doubt they'll ever subject me to that dire place again. 2018 - Review #13 read more

First curbside, had to go in. They said oh sorry! Next got Back to the hotel and missing food and wrong beverage. Called and they put me on hold for 12 minutes. That was my drive back there. Then they blamed the manager for not answering. Then waited and waited. No I'm so sorry, nothing!! Glad it was just a drive thru town because I would NOT return to this place and I love Cracker Barrel!! read more

Best Pancakes. Quality of food somewhat diminished in past few years as well as drastic increase in price. But want is not in 2024?

Waitress was sweet food was delicious, we bought some tshirts. I love looking at all the things they have there.

Walked into their charming general store, and we were seated quickly. Our server took our drink order and returned in a flash to take our order. The food came out promptly with large portions, enough for us to take back and munch on as we drove to our destination. The food was tasty and hot and our server was on point, bringing lots of drink refills and extras. She was friendly and kind! The bathrooms were clean. What a friendly place. We'll be back for the hash brown casserole! read more

You walk in at 6am, the fire is going, theres a warmth to the room that soaks deep into your soul, you call out for Grandma but she doesnt answer....wait, that's right, you arent at your Grandmas, its Cracker Barrell. What more can you say about a place that gives you that southern country feeling when you walk through the door. The staff is always friendly, the food tastes just like the food should, southern and delicious. Doesnt matter if you are grabbing breakfast or getting a lunch or dinner, Grandma would be proud to serve you these dishes even at her own kitchen table. So grab a chair, do some tee games at the table and try to prove to everyone you arent an ignor-a-moose! read more

Best place in town to get a quick breakfast or brunch with the family or with your friends. Service is quick and even with a packed building they get you seated and taken care of within minutes of arrival. Personal favorites: Uncle Hershel's Breakfast Grandmas Breakfast Eggs in a Basket Also, there is a bus-man who cleans tables that always stops to ask how breakfast was and if we are doing okay. Makes the whole experience more like home. read more

Placed a curbside order today. It was super busy but all the staff were super nice under all the pressure. My order was correct and special instructions were followed. The staff were all working hard and going above and beyond. Thank you! read more

Stopped here while traveling from Michigan to Florida. I originally ordered haddock, but it was not very good, so the waitress offered to switch it for catfish. I requested that my meal be carryout because everyone in my party was almost done eating. The waitress was very friendly and I really appreciate her hospitality. I also love going to the store outside the restaurant! Everyone in the store was friendly and helpful too! After grabbing a few goodies it was time to head back to the hotel and relax. The only problem my family had was the seating. We were a party of 5, but there weren't any tables available to accommodate us, so the staff had us sit at a small 4 seat table and added a chair at the end for my son. Probably wouldn't have been that big of a deal, but a 6'3" teen at the end of a small table without much leg room wasn't good at all! read more

This Cracker Barrel location has really impressed me. I made a delivery order using the Cracker Barrel app and after waiting an hour for it to arrive, I called the store to realize there were no DoorDash drivers available to pickup my order. I decided to pick up my order instead of having it delivered and the manager gave me a full refund on my order. Thank you Cracker Barrel Lexington Rd for being so wonderful at service. read more

very slow to get food. and to even get service here. definitely been over 20 minutes and we are getting a little annoyed bc we want to get home but wanted a sit down place to eat. people that ordered way after us they got their food before us and this is ridiculous. read more

I don't like to give bad reviews, especially to Cracker Barrel. We just stopped at the Richmond, Ky location. The lot was pretty empty as was the dining area. We were seated in the rear with only 3 other tables occupied. We waited 15 minutes but no one came to the table. Tables around us were cleared, others were waited on, and the hostess even came to check on open tables. No one even approached us. We were just there for dessert so we left and went to DQ. We'll stick to the Lexington locations. read more

BEST! Wonderful experience last night. Went right during the busy dinner hours too. Our waitress Madison was wonderful. Kind, and not once did we have to ask for anything. My lemonade was refilled right on time, my fish fry food was delicious. She checked on us periodically and was friendly the entire time. Manager was assisting, cleaning tables, and helping with seating. Love this place and the staff! read more

Went at 3 o'clock in the afternoon and was seated immediately. Waitress came and took our order. We had been keto for 3 1/2 months and decided to cheat today. We had been craving fried chicken and was looking forward to some really good food. We ordered fried chicken w/salad & side. Two minutes later she comes out with the fried chicken. I told her that I had asked to have it cooked fresh. How could they have cooked it so quick. She said they just do it quickly. Then she goes back in the kitchen and brings our salads out. Anyway, long story short... The food was not fresh, the chicken is not hand breaded, and it was just an overall bad experience. We ended up taking our salads home with us and just half the food. We will eat the salads but will give the neighbors dog the other food. Also, they sat us in the very back dining room for 4 managers were sitting. They were very loud and talking about all of their drinking adventures. Just trashy. AVOID!!!! read more

We went and our waiter was horrible she barely ever checked on us and then we waited for our food so long that we was ready to leave got our food and part of our order was missing then asked for refills and it took probably 10 minutes to get them and the kids never even got their refill. Was very upset with the service we received read more

Went here for dinner with friends to see what all the hype was about. Have to say the best part of this place is their General Store. We were all very disappointed with the food. It was very mediocre, I ordered the Friday Fish Fry they made such a big deal about. I asked to sub the fries for a baked sweet potato, for an extra charge of course. when my plate arrived, the sweet potato was on the side and looked like it'd been sitting for hours, they included the fries anyway. and the fish portions were very small. Not at all how they described the dish. For dessert we all ordered the fresh baked Peach Cobbler, it was more like peach pie filling with ice cream, no cobbler in mine or my friends, shoulda asked for a corner piece.. lol wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

We had excellent service here on a busy Sunday morning. We were seated immediately and got our drinks within a timely fashion. The food arrived quickly, and our ordered were all correct and the food was delicious. We really appreciated the waitress offering coffee to go, as well. As always, their gift shop looked amazing with all of their Christmas decorations and gifts. read more

Normally, I absolutely love Cracker Barrel. I will always get the hash brown casserole because that's my favorite food from there. I ordered a vegetable plate with mashed potatoes, hash brown casserole, and a couple of other items. But to my dismay, there was a hair in my food. This is understandably gross. I talked to my server (who was very nice, I don't remember the name, but she was very sweet). She's the only reason why I'm giving them two stars. So, the manager came over and I remember her name because she was absolutely horrid. She said her name was Dee and asked what the problem was. I told her that there was hair in my food and asked if it was okay that I get a new plate. She pursed her lips and scrunched her face up a bit and said "sure, I'll take this back and new food will be brought to you." I thanked her, but she didn't apologize at all and made me feel uncomfortable with her attitude. At that point, I was almost wary of getting my food back just because I said something about the hair. I get it, mistakes happen. I wasn't trying to anger anyone. A few minutes later, Dee brings me the "new" food herself. I thought that was really quick, but figured maybe they just had those sides all made and ready. I thanked her and I noticed the plate was the exact same. She had just set the plate down and walked away without a word. Just an eye roll. It was the same plate I already had. The hair was just taken off of it and I'm guessing that they just put it under the heater for a little bit. After she left, I took some of it off the fork with my hand and sure enough, it was still cool in some areas where it didn't have enough time to heat up. At this point, I didn't want to eat. I didn't want to order anything else. I was just angry and disgusted. My friends didn't want to eat their meals either because it grossed them out. We just paid and left. We won't be back, especially with that lady being in charge. read more

It was almost closing time I mean like 10 minutes till and they still let us come in and sit down the waitress was very sweet and was constantly checking in she even played a game with one of the boys. I thought for sure they were gonna hate us but quite the opposite. Thank you for a pleasant experience. read more

I had to get on to them yesterday about the dining room and the men's room being nasty. However, this morning the place is clean and the service was great the pancakes and sausage were awesome! read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Breakfast menu. - American Near Me - Richmond, Kentucky

When we are on vacation we usually hunt for the best local eatery. When traveling and on a time schedule we are different. The thing I like about Cracker Barrel is that they ask serve very nearly the same food. Seldom an awful one and usually good if not great. The people that work there are probably the greatest variable. Here we he had a great host by the name of Sam and waitress Denise. They made this breakfast even more enjoyable! Also probably moved this from a three to four star. read more

Cut straight from the corporate cloth. The uniformity of Cracker Barrels from one place to the next is spooky and this place toes the line. (McDonald's has more variation between restaurants than CB.) I had the new half chicken menu item for dinner with two sides and biscuits with real butter. I don't like how the corn comes watery and oily but it's not too bad. I took home the entire breast, some potatoes and corn, and a biscuit which reheated well for lunch the next day. If you are in the mood for traditional American cuisine, you can't go wrong at this location. read more

The waitress was great. But my son ordered the country fried chicken and it was horrible. Waitress said she would let the manager know. She (waitress) comes out a few minutes and explains how they cook it different. Never saw the manager. So we paid for a meal that was not eaten. The breading was fish breading. It was horrible. Really disappointed. read more

Checked in twice and now I'm the Duchess?! What's up with that, Richmond Yelpers? This is the very first CB that I remember coming to... as a kid. I think this one was built before the Lexington locations... from what I remember anyways. 9 times out of 10 when I come to a CB I order the kids chicken tender meal. Since the biscuits are already free, the meal is almost equal sized as the adult chicken tender meal, but the kids meal includes the drink and is cheaper. Score! The service and food have been good, no complaints from me... it's just not a five star restaurant. read more

Decided to give them another try today. The food was better, nothing was cold this time. I had the meatloaf with hash brown casserole, corn and green beans. Hubby had the steak with corn, carrots and fries. Everything tasted fine, not outstanding, just fine and the portions were hearty. However, they are still at 2 stars because the service was terrible and dreadfully slow AGAIN! Had to wait forever for just basic condiments, server did not check on us after the food was brought (by someone other than her) and she didn't ask if we needed drink refills until she brought the check. Also had to ask someone else for a to go box. It will probably be a good long while before we give them another chance, at least at the Richmond location. They just can't seem to get their shit together. read more

Food and service are adequate. Usually very clean. The store has a lot of interesting items. They do NOT have any type of discount.
