Typical Cracker Barrel store and restaurant. Great home style, comfort foods. My favorite is the chicken and dumplings with mashed potatoes! The raspberry lemonade is also very refreshing and served in an ice cold mug.
Great food!
Homey, warm, greeting waitresses who work hard and fast.
Close to Interstate 70 and hotels.
I've been a regular for a few years now and this used to be my favorite place to go, but I'm starting to think it's not worth the hassle. Over the past several months I've been noticing a decline in service and in food prep. This had been tolerable up until my most recent visit which may very well be my last. This last time it took forever to receive my food, there were mix-ups with my order, they forgot to send my sides out with the main dish, gave me the wrong dipping sauce after forgetting it entirely the first time around, so that was something that had to be corrected twice. And to top it off one of my pieces of chicken was still mostly pink when I took a bite. I was given a free dessert due to the piece of raw chicken but it wasn't as good as previous times I'd had it. The Coca Cola cake is usually moist and delicious but this time around it was just dry and sad. I honestly don't know what to think.
The roast beef was all fat. Nasty, I didn't eat it. The manager did fix my reciept and only charged me for the mashed potatoes and gravy that I did eat and my drink. Love the lemonade. Hate the cuts of meat. I get ones full of fat everytime. Will stick to the fish which is good when I am forced to go there. Will not voluntarily go there ever again.
My family and I visited this Cracker Barrel when we passed through town. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and it didn't take long to be seated at a great spot. Our server Angie was super sweet and helpful; she was always there when we needed her. We were accidentally sent out the wrong side and Angie and the kitchen staff helped fixed it right away and let us keep the extra side, which my youngest son loved!
Our overall experience was amazing and we will definitely be back to this location when we're in town. Hopefully we will get Angie as our server again!
Clean restrooms, usually friendly service. Prices are reasonable.
Want to try Thanksgiving there. Hope we can get in.
