Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

I used to like Cracker Barrel. Sad how far the chain has fallen. Nasty silverwear, long wait times, rude staff and dirty floors. I just paid $ 32.00 for inedible food. At least the fireplace was warm.

I ended up eating breakfast here with my 3yr old daughter as a matter of proximity. My wife was at a nearby appointment and we had to stay close. That being said, I’m glad we did. The food was great, the staff (our waitress Brandi in particular) was perfect, and everyone was receptive to all the shenanigans my kid could muster. Another bonus was the old-​world country feel that is becoming more and more scarce.

Haven’t been in a while but I need to go back because everything I’ve tried here is fucking amazing. I like the chicken and dumplings and I like the chicken with barbyque sauce from the health menu (health menu shit normally tastes like shit to me but this didn’t) and the macaroni and cheese is AMAZING I could fucking live on it

I love cracker barrel and all that it offers. Brings back so many memories of my childhood and going with my sisters and grandad. My husband and I typically get the chicken fried chicken. But I also make it a necessity to get a blue berry pancake. I’m hooked. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because sometimes service is a hit or miss. There can be only 10 ppl in the place and it’ll take forever. Other times it’s great waiting staff. You just never know. But I still love it and the store. Such cute little things in there.

What can I say other than don’t eat here. They overwhelm you with gravy the only thing I find good here is the Mac n’ Cheese

Ordered the chicken biscuits special to go for the third time in 2 weeks and it’s so delicious. Quick service but yesterday the person on the phone did not hear us order an extra helping of hash brown casserole (which was absolutely essential!!) with egg and biscuit meal and today the jelly I requested was not included. Although I am content with both food and service, it wasn’t quite perfect.

Standard Cracker Barrel as delivered. My service was excellent and I was seated immediately on a Sunday morning. I ordered the French toast and coffee and they were spot on.

I was here on Thursday night. I had ordered the pancake breakfast and wanted my eggs scrambled hard and my bacon not so crispy. My food came out completely wrong and I honestly set it to the side. The manager stopped by and made everything right and exactly how I wanted it.

My husband I have been to this location several times and have always had some kind of an issue. We’ve encountered poor customer service, poor quality food, and today had the pleasure of discovering a short coarse hair cooked into my husband’s eggs. Vom! The manager tried to make it right by taking care of our check and giving us a voucher for a future visit, but we were pretty grossed out. We will not be returning.

I just saw a comment about someone feeling rushed because of the server leaving them their ticket shortly after their food arrived. I just wanted to clarify that Cracker Barrel employees are trained to leave your bill upon their first visit after your food arrives to make sure everything is great. It it’s also for your convenience, as Cracker Barrel is all for Pleasing People© I am a server here at the Skibo Rd. Location and strive to make a better dining experience for you and your family.

Food is good. Service sucks. If they are busy, good luck trying to get your food in a timely manner. We went there on a Saturday morning and ofcourse like every other breakfast restaurant it was packed with everyone and their mother. We got our food over an hour later. And our waiter sucks.

Food was fair… But I feel that the waitress is trying to rush us off we just received our food and she has already brought the check… And also it’s ok to ask if we are ok maybe twice but she has came back 10 times to see if we are gone

The waitress was friendly and attentive. The food was good. I just love eating breakfast in the evening. So much fun. I really enjoyed this dining experience.

Stopped briefly on a road trip since Cracker Barrel is usually a good bet, especially with kids. The service was good and people were friendly, but the food left much to be desired. Our three orders of dumplings were left mostly untouched. They were basically watery. Yuck. Our kids meals were the same. Vegetables weren’t great, side of mashed potatoes, which I love, were mediocre as well. The thing we all ate, and we’re fairly healthy people, were the cinnamon apple side dishes.
We wouldn’t stop again

After being disappointed twice, my family and I decided to give it another shot. After all, my husband and I have experience in the restaurant and are usually understanding about most things.
We were seated in the back of the restaurant and were immediately forgotten. I had to signal a server to place a drink order which was brought by the server assigned our section. She offered no apology or explanation, but rudely asked if we were «ready yet.» We ordered bread and a salad which took a ridiculously long time to arrive, and meanwhile our drinks were empty. Our server was slowly cleaning tables nearby and not paying us any mind. When our salad finally arrived, my husband had to request refills because I was too angry to speak without sounding mean. Come on — of course we need refills! When she came back, she only had a refill for my husband and had the nerve to ask if we needed anything else. I was shocked that I STILL had to ask for a refill after all that.
When the food came it was delicious, but unfortunately we did not receive one of our sides nor any of the condiments we requested. After a long day of serving tables at my restaurant and working hard to give guests my 100%, it angered me for her to clearly not give a d*** about her guests. Tables around us were complaining of not having their needs met as well.
Cracker Barrel management — you have a beautiful establishment, tasty food and a good selection. Please please please fix the problem with your wait staff. It can’t be mere coincidence that we experienced horrible service multiple times.

Not sure about the food here, ordered 45 minutes ago and still no food in sight. The place is definitely not packed … Maybe the chicken for the chicken fried steak escaped? Vegetable rebellion or maybe a nation wide gravy shortage? If our food is not here in 15 minutes we will never find out the food quality because I will walk out ! UPDATE with a minute left on the clock. Food arrived. pretty decent flavors, crispy chicken fried chicken, gravy was a little flat

Incredible staff! It was a busy Saturday when i came for breakfast and they were still able to seat us in 15 minutes or less, and the wait flies by while your looking in the emporium. Plus, unlike other restaurants that don’t take their time to cook a good meal on a busy day, Cracker Barrel managed to bring us a great meal like any other day! The food is DELICIOUS, its not like any other restaurant, its REAL FOOD, authentic and homemade, you can buy the mixes and syrup right here in their Emporium. Will definitely be visiting again!

Great service and food! We were seated right away and they didn’t even blink an eye or make it apparent that our table was going to be trouble. I have a 10 month old son. We did try to clean up but no, they wouldn’t let us.

Great service and food! Waitress was helpful and friendly. Never been to a Cracker Barrel I didnt like.

So I love Cracker Barrel and their oh so country breakfast! My absolute favorite is the pancakes!
This location is new to Fayetteville, i think the other is way off of 95 somewhere! So it’s great that this one is right near the mall.
I went on opening week, I think they’d only been open a day, it wasn’t crowded (but this was also a weekday).
The prices are great, I think my favorite pancake breakfast is under 12 dollars.
Definitely family friendly and worth a try. If you’re not into crowds I would avoid weekends.
