Meh. We have one here that replaced a family owned version of CB. We've tried it for breakfast a few times and the food was awful. | |||

The one near here is not bad. I don't consider it a fast food place since you sit down at a table, have a waitress, and don't throw away your dishes and silverware when you finish. ... stirred anti-clockwise. | |||

Am I odd man out? OK, I do not like the fake "country" atmosphere, service is usually slow (exception, one of my co-worker's daughters is a manager at a local Cracker Barrel, we always get great service when she's working, but that's an exception). However, I find that the food is pretty high quality. Maybe it's just because I have settled on a few breakfast type items that I order. It's one of the very few places I have found that has Tennessee style Country Ham, which I like. Their bacon is good, better than most restaurants. I do like their hash brown casserole. Along with their pancakes or waffles (preferably the pecan type) they serve maple syrup. Actual maple syrup, not maple flavored "pancake syrup." Executive summary: I find the food quality significantly better than just about any other chain restaurant (Chick-Fil-A is also in that category), I do not like the ambience, and the service is generally below par. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

I use to live near a good one, my parents eat out for breakfast probably 5 times a week & they'd usually go there at least once to make me happy. I absolutely love their chicken pot pies, but they were not available til 11 am, which was later than my parent's preferred to go for breakfast. We went often enough that we would call them & they'd always get them ready a bit early for us. | |||

we only do breakfast at CB, they do a good pancake, and the rest is not bad either, except the 'sawmill' gravy, that stuff is so gelatinous you can bounce stuff off the top of it, and yes, the biscuits are not the best but the cornbread is ok for sweet cornbread https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

Cracker Barrel used to be a great place to eat. Now it's just the place I go if there isn't anything else available. My grandparents like to eat there so when I'm driving them around we normally stop there. | |||

First tried it about 1990 when I moved to Texas and it was very good, just tried it again about 2015 and it was horrible. | |||

There was one near my apartment in Michigan. I liked it, especially the grilled chicken tenders. There isn't one close to me now though. | |||

I love to look at the chinese-made imitation Americana in their gift shop. Every one of their restaurants is a tourist trap unto itself. The food is so-so. I prefer their breakfast menu items over the other stuff. Their biscuits always strangle me and I agree that the sawmill gravy would make a very satisfactory wallpaper paste. | |||

We'll usually stop at Cracker Barrel for breakfast if we're travelling, but other than that I rarely eat there. It's ok, but there are better options here in town locally. When I'm driving I don't have time to search out something, so Cracker Barrel is usually a known deal at least. Here's to the sunny slopes of long ago. | |||

I travel frequently and CB meets my needs. I get to get the stiffness out of my back and legs from driving and the food is middle of the road. The atmosphere is flaky but I don't care unless it is winter time and fire place is lit, that is a nice change. I don't eat heavily when driving, my favorite is their BLT but no sides. | |||

Mmmm hashbrown casserole.... I only go there for breakfast. It's good but a tad bit pricey I think. I have actually never eaten a lunch or dinner there. I do try to show up before 7 (6 is best) because they get crowded fast. And I love playing those little peg games while I wait. | |||

I like to stand a spoon up in it, and see if it falls before we finish and leave, or if that bothers the wife, I will tap it with a spoon to see how long it takes to break the surface tension,,, https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

I would eat CFA 100/100 if I was given a choice. You could have stopped after your first sentence and I'd be 100% in agreement with you. Fake atmosphere, zero hospitality, food is often cold when severed, food is mediocre at best. I'm not going to wait in line for 45 minutes for food that is expensive, but doesn't taste good, and served by someone who failed out as a waiter at Red Lobster. I dread it when I'm with a group and everyone wants CB. I rather eat McDonald's. Now the little greasy spoon down the road from my house, I'll take that. Give me some corned beef hash and eggs or one of their egg sandwiches and I'm a happy guy. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

Funny seeing various posts including the words 'great' and 'Cracker Barrel' together. It's a thematic, national restaurant chain, that alone should be a warning sign to stay away and keep any and all expectations to a minimum. Yes, their bacon and ham steak is tasty but, that doesn't off-set the canned garbage and reconstituted powders that they call food. I'll give my business to the local diner, owned by the local family, that employs the locals before going to a national theme chain. | |||

Only been in one twice. Last time I was in one, I ordered pinto beans as a side and they came with some sort of green cooked with them. Tasted like ass. | |||

Wow, one more thing to screw up California. Last time I went to one in Manassas, my dining mate went to pour sugar in his coffee, he poured black ants in as well. We didn't stay.
