Here now. Mama's French Toast with eggs, bacon and hash browns on the side is what I always order. After I'm done eating I pay my bill and clap.

So Who Here Loves Cracker Barrel?

It is not bad. I have been to Cracker Barrel's in a variety of states and the food/service is always consistently good for what it is. Only have ever eaten breakfast there though.
There's an Alton Brown quote, "it's where southern food goes to die."
I wouldn't be that harsh but if you're in the south and you're just stopping at one cause it's right of the interstate-- i'm sure you could find something yummier and cheaper.

I always make it a stop when I travel. We don't have them locally or I'd have breakfast there every weekend
if you are in the south and stopping at a Cracker Barrel or an IHOP instead of a Waffle/Huddle House you are insane.
As far as chains go, Waffle House is so much better than CB or IHOP-- yeah.
Went once in my life. Only thing I remember is guy with a hunting hat grabbed his toddler aged kid by the arm and yelled at them, and then said "does anyone have a problem with the way I raise my child? Anyone want to say something?"
This was in the middle of 200 breakfast eating patrons, and we all shamelessly sat there in silence.

I kind of hate it. I don't really think it's bad, it's just that everything I get there is the definition of mediocre. 100% of the things I order, I think: I could get this better at X. Also, I live in the south, so it's always filled with the reddest of rednecks.
Now ya talking.
It's a good restaurant to take older relatives. Inexpensive, appeals to their palate, and they seem to like to fake country nostalgia.
But honestly the food quality is typically significantly lower than what I could cook as an amateur. Line cook meatloaf with ketchup (wtf) <<<<<<<<<<< Julia Childs Meatloaf from the way to cook.

My southern-ass grandma refuses to eat at any restaurant that isn't Bob Evans or Cracker Barrel. She just likes "southern" food. She cooks way better than the food at both places. It used to be so frustrating because when we would go on family vacations as a kid, we would pretty much have to stop at Cracker Barrel and ONLY Cracker Barrel because of her lmao
I have only been to a Waffle House once in my life and bah gawd. One of my favorite breakfast places ever.
Used to go as a kid. But i never been back from the horror stories my buddy told me when he worked there.
Not sure about other ones but he said his was highly racist and he got fired after they found out he was gay

I've never had my food come out at a Cracker Barrel and thought "this food is acceptably warm." No matter what I order the temp is like it came off of heat 20 minutes before I got it.
I actually really don't care for it that much, but I won't raise a stink if some older folks I'm with want to go. Neat little puzzles on the tables.
Now I AM a pretty big fan cracker barrel brand cheddar in the grocery store. shit's legit.

Has their racism improved? They were notorious for it a while ago. The food is...okay, but it's only a place I would ever stop at on a road trip, and there's usually better options even then.
it reminds of the never ending road trips i'd go on with my family as a kid. Besides the band, always thought they had the lamest shit in their gift shop.
Me and my friend are fucking obsessed
We're like the only people there under 60 and we go like every week. The people working there have started to recognize us.

Way back 20 years ago, they had a pretty good brunch buffet. I unfortunately went a course of years ago and it's definitely targeting a lower price point. Mehta bacon, mac and cheese (why?), and fried chicken. Used to be real eggs, thick cuts of bacon, pan sausage, French toast etc.
Love it. They're always located right next to highway exits to. On purpose I'm sure lol
I only have breakfast there. Scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuits and pancakes. Those pancakes are the best I've had, they're crack. I never look at the dinner/lunch menu 🤣

Honestly I like the store lol. I dont leave the house much, and even more rarely go to a "general" store. So I always look forward to browsing the random crap and more unusual candy. Food is ok.
I ask because I haven't seen a Shoney in like 20 years too. For whatever reason, the name popped into my head.
Me and my dad meet there for lunch a lot. The chicken fried steak is pretty good. I would rather go to Waffle House if I was getting breakfast though
