First time eating at a Cracker Barrel and I was satisfied! Large portion sizes Large selection of meals Large selection of sides. Biscuits for the table Great, hearty food Also had fun browsing the gift shop read more

This place is just mediocre. Service since their horrible remake has still not improved. We were directed to one of the four tops with bunk seating on one side. The table and the bankett were covered with pancake syrup. There were plastic utensils laying on the floor. We had to ask the service to please clean them. She never picked up the utensils. We had the beef pot roast and meatloaf with three sides dinners. My wife is granted a picky eater. The pot roast was rather fatty but the portion size was OK. The meatloaf was pretty good, it was a generous piece but they skimped on the sides. I received 9 buttered carrots, maybe two tablespoons of corn and maybe three tablespoons of mashed potatoes. Normally one eats quite a bit of mashed potatoes, gravy and meatloaf. The biscuits/muffins arrived as we were finishing our plates! Needless to say, I was not terribly impressed. The place seems louder than before. I used to come there 2-3 times/month. I really liked CB's turkey dinner, so I would get there regularly on Thursdays. It was good sized both the turkey serving and the sides but it too has been scaled back significantly. Their dinner is now "lunch-sized" and not like the picture of the CB turkey dinner on their posted ads. Since the not-so-great transition and its terrible service, it's more like once every 4-5 months and only when I'm nearby. read more

Stopped by for some food while my car was being serviced. Service here has always been friendly and attentive and the food hits the spot. I do wish they had a bit more flavor but it gets the job done read more

OK, I haven't been to CB since all the hoopla. Frankly, when I learned of all the absurd things they were doing, I tuned out. Businesses need to stay in their lane, not become social justice warriors. Hey, but if they want to, they can, just know your going to get a beating, especially in this particular space. All that said, I realized as i sat in the lobby of my crappy hotel where I had just spent the night because NO was full (NFL game at Superdome), I wanted something better than Waffle House. I figured I'd cut them some slack, since they eased off on all the nonsense. This location seems like it might have undergone the transformation, then transformed back. The walls were painted white, but the antique adornments were all there. The chairs were dark wood, just not the heavy honey colored oak they had been before. Whatever. It looked fine. Our waitress was cute as a button and on point. Super helpful, super friendly. Whatever we needed, she took care of it. The food was hot and tasty. I had a pancake breakfast with sausage, bacon, country ham and grits, two eggs scrambled with cheddar at my request. I liked it all except the ham, which was not all that tasty. I should have got the other ham. and the cheese in the eggs was kind like rubber. I didn't eat the pancakes as I got full on biscuits and gravy and all the other stuff. I took them to go. I will not write about "to-go" food as that is never an indication of what was delivered to my table. Oh, also had coffee. It was hot and fresh and i appreciate I could get real cream, real butter, and real syrup. Also, we had some biscuit beignets. Very tasty. read more

I have recently visited Cracker Barrel twice in two weeks, haven't been since a child, for pancakes and they did not disappoint!! I love crispy buttery pancakes and Cracker Barrel has delivered each time. The pancakes were so buttery, flavorful and delicious. I have been searching for pancakes like this and Cracker Barrel was the farthest place from my mind. I can't attest to anything else on the menu but those fried okra. Yes, I eat pancakes and fried okra lol. I do get some scrambled eggs and sausage, but they aren't who I am talking about. Anywho, in the mood for some crispy buttery pancakes, try Cracker Barrel, just be sure to tell them you want them crispy. The inside has been freshly painted and brightened up. The Country Store is always fun to walk around, and if you have a wait, you can rock all of your cares away on the porch in their rocking chairs. Our waitresses were awesome, especially the young lady that waited on us on Labor Day, she was on it, didn't even have to ask. Lastly, those biscuits, those biscuits, those biscuits!! They taste like biscuits my Papa use to make. I recommend enjoying them with honey, divine! Until we meet again! read more

We went right before noon on a Wednesday and it was great! We were seated immediately, drink orders taken within a minute of sitting down, and orders taken when drinks were served. The best pancakes I've ever had at any restaurant and at any Cracker Barrel! read more

After an early morning meeting I met my husband for breakfast at Cracker Barrel, which we haven't done in a long while. It was crowded as usual, but he was seated within 10 minutes. When I arrived, the server was right behind me, took or drink order and came back with those hot biscuits-that doesn't need butter by the way I decided to try something different so I got the grandpa's breakfast which comes with the chicken. It comes with gravy, but I requested no gravy. It was good, the chicken was okay. It's a country chicken recipe so it has a lot of breading on it or batter...whatever it's called and thats not really for me, but it may be what others like.‍ Everything else was delicious, the grits and my over medium eggs were perfect . The server, Dajon, from beginning to end was definitely a ray of sunshine. He was friendly, humorous, made recommendations and definitely went the extra mile. We had a great experience with him. I'll definitely be requesting to sit in his area when we return. When we checked out, there was a lady name, Shanna. She was great. Really friendly with a great smile. We made small talk as she checked me out. Oh wait! I tried this hot cocoa they offered-they were out of the sprinkles, so I broke up my peppermint stick and put on top as a topping It's Cracker Barrel, we already the food is good, it doesn't change, so this review was basically about the exceptional service we experienced. read more

My family used to stop in Cracker Barrels during road trips when I was younger and I always remembered them being fun, entertaining, and yummy, so I was quite excited to come to one again. The store itself was charming and hosted all sorts of knick-knacks from toys, home goods, candy, and gag gifts. We had a party of 6 and arrived around 9am on a Sunday. We knew there'd be a wait and high traffic, though we did have to wait a smidge longer than what we were originally told, even with the hostess being conservative with her wait time (we got a table a little after 30 minutes). I ordered pancakes and they were phenomenal: I can't believe how fluffy and delicious they were, so huge props to Cracker Barrel for tasty food. On the other hand, our drinks alone (water and coke sodas) took another 30 minutes to receive, not to mention the additional wait time for our actual food to arrive. On the bright side, they had a peg game we played with to pass time and if we had wanted, there was also a checkers game set up to the side. Our waitress was sweet, though it was apparent she was overwhelmed with all the other tables she had to wait on. I'd also say that our checkout situation was stressful, as the cashier accidentally overcharged 2 of our members and mistakenly told another that her payment didn't go through. Overall the food was great and I'd go back again if I happened to be in the area, though I wouldn't specifically make the trip out just for Cracker Barrel, and I would hope that things go more smoothly the next time! read more

Got to New Orleans early and wanted food asap. So we ended up going here. Soon as you walk up the place Looks like a barn. They have a place to buy small item and the if you wanna eat food it's in the back. Plenty of seating for groups. We were greeted and taken to our table. I ended up ordering the Grandmas Sampler and i got Pancakes, Bacon, Sausage, Grits, Ham & Apple Cinnamon. Pancakes were good....bacon and sausage was ok....grits were ok....ham was tough to seat but not bad....apple cinnamon was good. Overall the food was good. If you in the neighborhood and hungry swing by. read more

I encountered multiple problems: 1. I could not redeem my Bonus Reward of a Free Barrel Bite via CB app order. I did not want to use my Pegs. 2. I went into the store to pick up my Order #33999289201475589 and place an additional order to utilize my Free Barrel Bite. The cashier used up my Pegs instead. 3. My order was not ready at 6:05pm as promised in the CB app. 4. I checked my order when it was provided and noticed that my Take Home Meal was not included in the bag. read more

Service was subpar at best. It's not the same Cracker Barrel that I am use to. The menu has changed and my favorite dishes gone. The music was loud and the staff was just standing around. I had to get up and get my own condiments because our server went MIA after she dropped our food off. My glass sat empty for at least 20 minutes, not to mention we sat at the table for about 20 minutes before we were even acknowledged. Do better! read more

Came to eat on a Monday for lunch. Wanted a Hamburger but they were out of hamburgers!!! How the heck does that happen. Supposedly Sunday was busy and everyone wanted burgers. This is BS! The new menu items are questionable at best. Sat for over 15 minutes waiting for our drinks. Our server was seen in the back gossiping and just standing around. Cracker Barrel your standards have fallen! Do better. read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - Grandma's Breakfast. - American Near Me - Slidell, Louisiana

Our dining experience started with a friendly hello and smile from our waitress, Shauna. She brought us our drinks and helped explain some menu choices. She was super attentive to us and everything went well! We ordered our food and she brought us some biscuits to have while we wait. Those biscuits were excellent, not like some cheap everyday ones. Our food was great. We had two orders of tenders, with sides and dips. We also had the chicken fried steak breakfast and a basic bacon & egg plate with hash brown casserole. All this food was excellent and enjoyed by all! The restaurant is decorated in a country house style. The Country Store you walk through when you first enter had lots to look at. I don't know how this place has a 3-star average. This place was great. read more

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store - This is after asking to turn the music down and this was the level they thought was acceptable. Was previously in the danger range. - American Near Me - Slidell, Louisiana

Cracker Barrel was a familiar place to enjoy. The look the smells , the food , the shop. Everything was a perfect step back in time that somehow relaxed you from the day. Especially in the winter, when the fireplace was going and the holiday music was playing. Now they've changed everything, there's great dishes removed from their menu, the dining area is all bright and the atmosphere is not CRACKER BARREL. The service was good ,but it really feels like something is missing. Sometimes you need to leave things alone and let them thrive as they are. This was a place with a LOYAL following that is now deteriorating . Sad. read more

Service, Attitude, cleanliness and quality of food!! My wife food was cold when it arrived, mine was warm not hot at all! It seemed like a bother to get refills on our tear!!

Anyone who knows me knows that pancakes are my favorite food. Cracker Barrell has the best pancakes around! I recently stopped in to take a break from being in the car on the way back from Florida. It was a well-spent break and I got the Momma's Breakfast with the wonderful pancakes and eggs and it was just as amazing as I remember. I love the pancakes so much that I've actually never ordered any other menu item on any visit so I cannot speak for the rest of the menu, which I'm sure is amazing, but the pancakes are the BEST and so is the service! read more

Gotta give This Cracker Barrell some love. When my family said they wanted to go to CB, I was in the back seat thinking.....all the good places to eat in Slidell and they wanna go to A Cracker Barrell...Really I am giving a five star cus the food was so good No for real. I ordered a catfish plate with upgraded sides....baked sweet potato and a salad. The potato was sweet and stuffed with some good stuff. I thought I was getting a small salad but it was humongous. Okay I am not leaving the catfish out of my praise moMent. Thin and crispy and seasoned to perfection. I was with a party of six and everybody enjoyed their food. Someone told my neice, Hilda, if you Moan again, I am really gonna slap you lol In addition to the good food....everyone on the staff was so friendly Y'all I am visiting New Orleans so you will be hearing from me a lot read more

In my younger days, Cracker Barrel always reminded me of road trip fare. However, now that I have a young one of my own, we find ourselves frequenting more often, as my picky eater of a son likes to go here. I am guessing that the storefront is a big part of Cracker Barrel's bottom line. The shopping experience begins as soon as you set foot on the front porch as there are dozens of rocking chairs and outdoor furniture for sale. When you get inside, you can buy everything from lit décor, quilting & bedding, clothes, holiday items and candy. I particularly love some of the "old school" candies such as mallow bars, Valomilk and cherry sours. I am not a big fan of the toys, as most kids (including mine) I see are pressuring their parents to buy something. I have been here enough times to have tried many of the entrees, and some of them I have listed below and all of which I think are pretty good: Pot roast Meatloaf Grilled sirloin steak Southern fried chicken Chicken tenders Farm raised catfish I like the fact that you can eat lite here by choosing a salad or perhaps the grilled chicken tenders or grilled farm raised catfish. The catfish was a pleasant surprise and there are LOTS of side dishes to choose from. With every meal, you get to choose from complimentary biscuits or cornbread. However, the cornbread is not sweet at all; therefore, if you like a sweet cornbread, this one is not for you. The food is always consistent, therefore, if you have eaten at one, you have eaten at them all. Another favorite (in the winter time) is the roaring fireplace, which everyone, including myself, seems to love. read more

I like chose of breakfast anytime of day. I also enjoy the choices. My waitresses have always been pleasant and accompanying.

This is the best Cracker Barrel I have ever eaten at! The service was incredible. I am from California and generally the Cracker Barrels out west are hit or miss, mostly miss. This Cracker Barrel hit with every bite! I had the Chicken fried steak with Mashed Potatoes, Collard Greens, and Dumplings. EVERYTHING was amazing! The biscuits were great too! I went with a group of 5 other people and every one of them said their food was the best! read more

I haven't been to Cracker Barrel since I was 10yrs old. It's been over 16yrs, today was my first day trying them for breakfast. I felt welcomed I didn't experience anything bad the waiter was nice. The food wasn't great at all. I don't think I will try it again !! read more

As Cracker Barrels go -- consistent menu & gift shop -- this one was fine and in a good location just off i10 on the way to New Orleans. I appreciate the RV lot in the back and stay in quite a few. I usually dine late to avoid crowds, but the Friday I was there was not crowded as there was a Mardi Gras parade dntn! I had a great small dinner with great service and in the morning coffee and a kids order of pancakes with bacon. I am sure I bought some candy and a good old fashion root beer for the road. I can always count on Cracker Barrels as a good highway stop now that they seem to be fully staffed again! 2020 nitemares behind us .... read more

Food was decent, poor server seemed overworked and that her section was too big to handle, she was def trying tho! Coffee was horrible, just a shame this place went downhill in the last year. We always stopped in for breakfast on our way out of town to escape Mardi Gras madness and now we will be choosing another spot. You can def tell all of the older ppl quit or retired and the younger ones they hired just can't get it done. read more

Normally I don't write reviews based on the service alone but we have visited this location 3 times now. This most recent we had a server named Noah. This guy was the most patient, respectful, and friendly server we've had across 5 states in the last 15 years. Management if you're reading this, you need to keep this guy around. As for the food, it pairs average across the board for Cracker Barrel. Nothing negative to say but nothing that hits as jaw dropping either. Bottom line, the service here makes it worth it! read more

Couldn't resist a return trip after a two-year hiatus. My order was a cheeseburger platter ($7.79), which came well equipped with a large side of fries and a side of creamy cole slaw. A very satisfying meal, even without finishing the fries. Our server was Brent, and he took excellent care of us visiting San Diegans. Just fine, this Cracker Barrel. read more

traveling, stopped there for supper, about 6:30 at night they were not busy! Ordered chicken strips, loaded mashed potatoes and bacon macaroni and cheese. Everything was cold, plus the mashed potatoes weren't mashed just boiled and not completely mashed, cheese on top was not even melted! Ice tea was served in a warm glass so not even cold! Overall the food sucked! Service wasn't bad, but like I said they weren't busy at all! read more

I am so disappointed with Cracker Barrel in Slidell, LA The service was almost nonexistent the food was cold-not even warm! We had to request drinks and biscuits twice. We ordered the $5 to go blueberry French toast to go-not 1 blueberry to find. Asked hostess to speak with a manager, hostess called 3 times no one ever came. I let hostess know of the issues. Terrible experience!!!! read more

Man I've never eaten at a cr as cracker barrel before and I never will again.. My fiance who's vegetarian order the vegetable sides, Mac and cheese, fried apples, squash casserole, and fried okra, The Mac a cheese was watery? Like the type you get from a box, fried apples were so sweet we couldn't eat them, fried okra was bland, squash casserole was the only tasty thing we had. I ordered the catfish with mash potatoes and Cole slaw. I got the catfish grilled it tasted microwaved from forzen, mushy, bland, and greasy. Cole slaw and mash was okay but nothing to write home about. I also got a strawberry mimosa damn thing nearly gave me diabetes. It tasted like strawberry syrup. beignets were covered in sugar and powder sugar plus caramel. It was way too sweet. Giving it 2 stars instead of 1 because our server is very nice. read more
