Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

Great Party Room! This is why the staff of my school gather here for our year-​end celebration. It has a great room that accommodates all of us in a private setting. The service courteous. I don’t enjoy all the servers that had to keep our orders in order. The manager came by a few times to check-​in. I wasn’t particularly peckish so I had the Bacon with Hashbrown Casserole for $ 4.99. I enjoyed my lovely lemonade in a frosted mug. My first two were in a frosted mug. The third serving came in a regular glass with ice cubes (not cool). Were they trying to send me a message? Hint, hint, we don’t want to give you another refill. Plus the ice diluted the lemonade. My colleagues ordered some beautiful meals which I photographed as well. The rating was lower this time because of the lemonade incident and the fact that they had only one cashier staffed for the morning. She complained that she had to fly solo until 11 am.

A 3.5 really.
Food is consistant and manager will replace what fails…
Always come when my mom visits: it is her ultimate favorite place to eat. Unfortunately no senior menu so minus a half star there.
Not top notch, but the biscuits and corn bread makeup for lack of freshness (as a veggie lovers, a minus on that.).

I enjoy eating here the staff is great food is good except the chicken and dumplings never order that again I don’t know what they are thinking but that’s not it but everything else is great. Waiting staff is great the store is super and a really great young lady on Friday working there that I in joy seeing when I come in she is always friendly and helpful I hope they never loss her or the rest of the staff for they have a great team there and they should be paid more for what they do! I have been to other stores/​restaurants and they can’t hold a candle to this one Just they need more room for POEPLE getting in and out and waiting to be seated other then that its find

Have come here a few times. I love the chicken fried chicken it is delicious. The hash brown casserole is too. This time I had the chicken dumplings, and it was not great at all. It was bland and hardly any chicken in the serving. My son enjoyed his salad, and mac and cheese. The waiter was friendly and did check on us. I will continue to come here, like I said the CFC is delicious. Lots to choose from. If one item is not great just try another.

Jesse the server is the best server Cracker Barrel has ever employeed! Jesse goes way above and beyond for his clients. Very professional and greatly personable! Way to go Jesse!

Was here for breakfast for the first time in years. No reason why, just a lot of other places to visit. Place was crazy busy like usual but they do seat quickly. Shopping in the store is always fun!

We live on the west side of the valley and last night we had a meeting scheduled on the east side. Needing a place for dinner along the way, we picked the Cracker Barrel. We’ve never eaten at this restaurant but have had good meals at others.
We allowed extra time because these restaurants are usually pretty busy. We should have added another hour.
From the time we entered the parking lot till we got a table was less then five minutes. You can’t beat that, but it was all down hill from there. We were seated at a table in the center of the building, with my wife facing the front and I the back. To my left was another couple at a table about 3 feet away. On my right were three more tables, along the wall, with a husband and at each.
The waittres got our drink order quickly and while she was there, we ordered our dinners hoping to speed things up. While we were waiting the couple on my left finished up and left. At that point we were there about 20 minutes. About 5 minutes later another couple was seated at that table.
The waitress (the same lady that is serving us) was there quickly and took their drink order. A short time later she was back and got their food order. At about the same time one of the couples to my right finished up and left. Again, about 5 minutes later the table was filled again. A different server was helping them and it was probably 10 minutes later that their food order was taken. At this point we were about 40 minutes into our experience.
Another 10 minutes passes and I see our surver approaching with a tray of food but she goes to the table on my left. What? As she leaves I catch her eye and ask where is our food? She says something about a server not coming in and having to take her tables also and their food came out first. I give her a disbelieving look and she leaves. Another few minutes go by and the newly arrived couple on my right gets their food. Now we’ve been there close to an hour.
Now a older lady shows up at our table an apologizes for the delay and tells us one of their grills is down and they are running a little behind. I ask her how come these other two tables got their food before us and all she can say is that a grill is down. What?
Soon after that our food arrived. It was good and there was plenty of it, but we had to gulp it down, get our check, leave, and drive like crazy to get to our meeting.
All together we were there for about an hour and twenty minutes. The’re are a couple of things that should be looked into: First they lied to us. I’m sure our order got lost. Way not just admit it. Tell the truth. Second, show you care by comping one of the dinners. Don’t just sluff it off as business as usual.
We will not be returning to this restaurant.

Love this place. It’s a home town little place. Food is like what your mom makes. Chicken fried steak mashed potatoes and close slaw are the best. The turkey dinner is to die for. The service is great. Servers are very attentive and friendly. I have to say everything I have had taste great. Where I live there are none of these so I make sure to stop at one when ever I see them.

We came here after we walked out of another establishment for not waiting on us… we now think it was by the grace of God! We were waited on by Kaylie and could not be more happy with this little gal! She was courteous, friendly, funny, professional, and quick witted! When we were seated our drink order was promptly taken by another server who apologized for Kaylie who was waiting on a large group, we were dumfounded by how quickly he was at our table! Kaylie was not far behind and scooped up our order and we were feasting in no time! She came back and retrieved our dessert order and we rolled out shortly after! I would highly recommend CB and if you do choose to stop in… ask for Kaylie!

The staff was very friendly and the patrons seemed moderately happy with the place.
I ordered my eggs cooked over medium and they came out over hard. The waitress offered to take them back and get them cooked properly but I will never return food because people are a-​holes and do nasty things to your food for complaining. Can’t believe they charge 2.50 for a cup of coffee and won’t offer flavored coffee creamer. They also offer toast but no peanut butter.
It just seems that I should have stayed at home and cooked for myself because it would have been cheaper and it would have tasted better.
I may go back but it won’t be anytime soon.

Great place! I’d never eaten at a Cracker Barrel before (we don’t seem to have them out on the West Coast) but had always heard good things and I wasn’t disappointed! Two of us arrived just past the dinner rush, the place was still quite packed however we were seated within ten minutes or so.
Our Server was quite friendly and upon hearing that my friend and I had never been to a Cracker Barrel before she patiently explained all of the menu items and specials along with the Cracker Barrel specialties. Our food arrived quickly and was just what we ordered. Portions were generous and we both left with full bellies. Now if only they would expand to the West Coast!

We were really pleased with this Cracker Barrels food and the items in the store for sale. I think Peoria is such a nice little town. And the items sold here seems to fit the feel of the town.
I usually get the same thing: Fish, Grits and Eggs meal. I like the biscuits and the hash brown casserole thing, My BF gets something different each time. This time he had ham and pancakes, eggs over easy and apples. Everything was good!

All across the country Cracker Barrel is the go to place for breakfast! This one is no exception. Even in a busy Saturday morning in December our waiter is on it and the food is delicious

Always love the breakfast here. I love the fact that you can go to any location and get the same quality and service. Love the pancakes.

We come here all the time but tonight dinner was awful. The food was fine it was the service we received from Tyrone. my husband ordered a Bacon cheese Burger and I the trout dinner. We sat there with empty drinks for 10min and when the food came out they brought my husband a Patty and fries… and I got one fillet of trout instead of the two it was to come with. My husband said it was to be a Bacon cheeseburger and they brought him out a plain cheeseburger. he ate it but was done with the service. Upon paying at the register when my husband was explaining how dinner was bad, Tyrone walked up and said oh I rang it up wrong as a hamburger steak, but I can charge you the the real price instead of saving you a dollar like I did you know. My husband paid and was like wow really who says this? So yea dinner was a disaster we got one refill our entire wrong meal.

Packed as usual on a Saturday morning. They have it figured out though. We waited less than ten minutes before our name was called. Our server came by almost immediately to take our drink order. Our order for food was taken and ready in under ten as well. Everything was fresh, hot and delicious. I had the cheesy hash browns, apples and biscuits. I love their hash browns and the biscuits were fat and melt in your mouth. Our coffee was refilled promptly.
Cracker Barrel has delicious food whether it’s for breakfast, lunch or supper!

Breakfast has been relatively consistent, but our family experience at dinner this past Thursday:
1. Spoiled food;
2. Overcooked food;
3. Argumentative servers;
4. Absent supervision;
5. Argumentative shift management (when they’re in the store, which they often were not);
6. Non responsive store management
Staff seemed very comfortable with me being in the kitchen getting:
A. Butter/​cream/​condiments;
B. Silverware/​plates/​napkins;
C. Etc etc
Not sure what happened, but it seems like staff were *quite* used to customers getting up/​getting their own items, and arguing with customers.
Family thoroughly offended; me thoroughly embarrassed. Posted here after 24 hours/​no response from Cracker Barrel management.

An elderly woman with a back hump in the handicapped spot and smoking a cigarette gave me the old stink eye… I did not feel welcome here. But the inside staff was inviting, warm, and friendly to the point my worries melted away.
Food is pretty good so I can’t complain. I recommend the chicken-​fried steak with biscuits and gravy. That’ll put you in a nice coma for your afternoon nap. ⁴⁄₅ would eat here again.

We bring our girls here when we want some down home food. They love their soups when they are feeling under the weather. I have always liked the store they have with the nastalgic candies and clothing for little ones. The rocking chairs they make are sturdy and adorable.

Got the chicken salad salad. Was so excited as it was good last time. This time 4 small pieces of chicken, a ton of huge chunks of celery. We told waitress she goes that is the portion they give you. Ok so the chicken salad is now 90% celery good to know. Very disappointing and customer service bad. She never came back to check on us. Won’t be back. I can spend my money where they care.

Came to AZ to visit family and they suggested this place for lunch. I almost got breakfast but was happy I chose the lunch menu. Hubby got meatloaf and said it was good. I got the farm raised catfish with fried okra, steak fries and brown rice. It was soooooooo good. Cant forget about the great service! We will definitely be back.

My wife and I try to get to Cracker Barrel whenever we are in Arizona or New Mexico. The blueberry pancakes and the hashbrown casserole are a must for breakfast.
We have had lunch and dinner here also and the food never disappoints. Be prepared to wait a while to get seated on Sunday mornings since this place gets packed.

This is a highly consistent establishment!
Food ALWAYS fresh and piping HOT — a must.
Long-​term servers with kind personalities and efficient service.
Sundays Special = Hand-​dipped Chicken Fried Chicken w/​biscuits, fixings is still the BEST on the menu.

A chain restaurant for sure. The corn bread and biscuits were average. I had the bacon cheese burger, it too was average. The service was average and the prices were fair. It was very busy and I don’t understand why so many people like this place.

What can I say? I love this place. We don’t have them in California so I make it a point to eat here every chance I get.
Every location I’ve been to has always been pretty busy. This was no exception.
I love going through the store and checking out all of the neat décor.
The staff is really nice and helpful. I witnessed 2 employees assisting an elderly woman. They take care of their patrons.
And the price can’t be beat. You get a good amount of food.

I love Cracker Barrel! I come here for my birthday breakfast every year. Even though it was busy this year since my birthday fell on a Sunday, our waitress was very attentive and efficient.
Food wise: The pecan pancakes are phenomenal! The hash brown casserole is also very tasty. The bacon is always perfectly cooked. You can’t go wrong with breakfast here.
Definitely one of my favorite spots!

Typically, I am not a Cracker Barrel fan. This location changed my mind!
The server was fantastic. He was super nice and extremely attentive. The food was better than any Cracker Barrel I’ve ever been to. I usually find their biscuits to be dry, but these biscuits were amazing! Maybe I was so hungry from travelling all day that average food tasted wonderful, but I honestly think they just have really good cooks at this location. I even saw an employee cleaning the already clean bathroom! That makes me feel good about sanitization, for sure! If I am ever looking for a Cracker Barrel in this area again, I will definitely be back.
