Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

The food is always awesome, reminds one of great home cooked meals! Amazing food breakfast lunch or dinner!

Fast service. To go order was waiting when I got there.

How can a restaurant run out of baked potatoes BEFORE 6:00??? I came especially to have one. Poor management! Service was great.

I’ve been eating Cracker Barrel for years, my mother even worked at my local Cracker Barrel for about 9 years. Needless to say; I know my Cracker Barrel. My waitress was so nice, but not kind of terrible and awkward. She was definitely knew so I won’t dock points for that.
Me and my girlfriend ordered the chicken fried chicken and the country fried steak. They brought out our dishes and had my country fried steak on her plate with her sides and I had her chicken fried chicken on my plate with my sides. (Kitchen screw up, it happens)
Food was delicious, but look warm; and my portions were very small. They were not «generous» at all as the menu suggests. But I for sure know that they’re biscuits which I love were absolutely not the same biscuits that other Cracker Barrels serve, not sure if they were changing things up or what; but my biscuits were burnt on the bottom and kind of cold. But of course I didn’t say anything to the manager. That’s what Unilocal is for!
Would not recommend «this» Cracker Barrel to any friends, would actually say steer clear or try to find another store.

My goodness, how I do not want to write such a negative review about one of my favorite places to eat. Maybe it was my fault for wanting breakfast 1:00 in the afternoon, maybe I should have stopped at one of the other bakeries/​cafes in the new city I call home. That being said, this was the poorest experience I’ve ever had at a Cracker Barrel. The server was nice enough, even after I expressed my concerns but that did not make up for the fact we waited over 30 minutes for breakfast food. No explanation was given until we had finally got up to leave, without getting our food. Things happen, restaurants get busy, food takes a while when backed up, I get it. However, I would like to be notified if my food is going to take additional time to be prepared. Instead we were glanced over multiple times and finally left at the 40 minute in mark with the server coming out of the kitchen with our food in hand, dumbfounded that we were aggravated and wanting to leave. I will say, they did box up our food for us and did not charge us, thus granting two stars; however, by the time we got home to eat it, we had made a round trip from home to Cracker Barrel then back home, that took a grand total of an hour and forty five minutes. I hate that this was my experience at the only Cracker Barrel in the city of Bowling Green because I love this place but I will be avoiding this establishment for the time being until I feel confident I won’t get a repeat of this experience.

Perfect breakfast stop on the highway. The people in the gift shop were friendly, the hostess was polite and our server Kat was excellent. Best service I’ve had at a Cracker Barrel. I got the sunrise sampler which is always great… A little of everything.

First time to Kentucky and eating at a Cracker Barrel. The staff was amazing and friendly and the food was really good. I had the buttermilk chicken breast for brunch and it was amazing. Definately recommend it.

I like to come here extremely early in the morning with the family.
Yesterday upon arrival, we were greeted by a somewhat very rude hostess named Missy. She grabbed the menus and stormed off. I had to jog to be able to keep up with her. We weren’t greeted with a smile or anything, just a «how many?»
The food is always good, no matter how poor the quality of the seating staff was, because Krystal always takes wonderful care of us. I love the biscuits and the hashbrown casserole is to die for… I just wish it wasn’t so expensive. 2.39 for a small thing of potatoes and cheese, but it is so good. The tea is also wonderful. I just wish the person who seats us was just a bit friendlier…

Had the lemon pepper trout and it was awesome. Lightly Steamed broccoli just right, carrots were sweet-​boiled and cooked thru, loved them, only negative was that corn bread was a little dried out (this was after 9pm), blackberry cobbler with ice cream to finish, loved it. Would def come here again.

No complaints. Friendly place. Good mixture of young and elderly people. The food was delicious. The server was pleasant. The place was crowded

Very disappointed in the food quality. Cracker Barrel has never disappointed in the past but last nights dinner was below par. The carrots that I usually love were soft and tasted like they came straight from the can. The eggs served were cold and the grits watery. The overall food quality was poor however the server was very friendly

Our waitress Andrea/​Adrea was wonderful! We left her a 50% tip she was so nice and helpful. The food was terrific as well. My only other experience at a Cracker Barrel was 2 years ago in TN and it was terrible. I’m glad I gave it a second chance because I was thoroughly impressed.

We stopped here at 10:30 am on a Friday and the place was packed, including school age children. I can only assume that it must have been spring break for the local schools. A bus full of girl basketball players had stopped in the area because there were several restaurants, and a large group of players decided Cracker Barrel was better than the KFC. That pushed the table wait to 45 minutes until a coach came in and told the girls they couldn’t wait that long and made them leave, which meant we were seated in 10 minutes. The waitress was nice but she seemed a little off her game, maybe she was new. Our food took a little long to come out, thankfully we asked for our soup early. It’s just a Cracker Barrel, where they artificially make you wait for a table so you have to look at crap you have no desire to purchase until you spend so much time in the gift shop that you actually find something you can’t live without. And I have to confess that I have purchased something from a Cracker Barrel gift shop. More than once.

All I did was pee here. The bathrooms weren’t the best.

Typically cracker barrel. Food is average, service is average. Any southerner worth his salt can cook better country style food, but it is easy, palatable, and a wide range of people a ok with eating there.

It’s simply comfort food and no matter which state I try one at, the quality is consistent.
Try the sweet potato pancakes (specials right now).you won’t even need syrup.

On my way home from Florida to Chicago last Friday I was tortured by sign after sign depicting Cracker Barrel’s logo as we drove along the highway. My family’s home in Chicago isn’t near a Cracker Barrel, so I try to stop in and eat at one whenever I get the chance. When my mom insisted that we stay the night in Bowling Green I insisted that we only put the brakes on our road trip there if the town had a Cracker Barrel located in it.
Luckily for me, this Cracker Barrel was located across the street from our hotel! Though this isn’t my favorite Cracker Barrel our waitress, Sierra, was very friendly and our food was delicious.
My family is comprised of opinionated, outspoken people, but everyone was more than satisfied with their meal. In fact, they were raving about it. My sister, who usually eats very slow and is a picky eater, literally devoured her sirloin steak, macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes. I also couldn’t get enough of my chicken fried chicken; I will definitely be trying that meal again.

I travel a bit and really enjoy eating at Cracker Barrel while on the road. This Thanksgving I decided to take a little trip to the Southern states with my 15yr old nephew.
I thought it would be fun to have our Thanksgiving meal at the Cracker Barrel… wrong.
The atmosphere and service was very good but the meal… not so much.
We both ordered the Thanksgiving turkey dinner. The meal arrived quickly but must have been on some kind of horrible assembly line as it was served cold and the turkey was so dry and hard you could actually bang it on the plate and make noise.
The dressing, sweet potatoes were mushy. cold, dry, lightly cooked biscuits, just awful meal.
The rest of my family decided to have their Thanksgiving meal at the Cracker Barrel in Michigan and said they had the same experience.

Stopped in tonight for dinner. We usually like dining there because we don’t have them on the west coast. Our server was having a off and night and kept messing things up. She was friendly tho. Dinner was right above ok, the biscuits were so small it was like «Holy Cow» they shrunk to silver dollar size. It seems on this busy night they were throwing things together to get you in and out.
