No paper towels in bathroom, told the persons at the register and they just said that they had told someone twice and maybe 3 times would be a charm.Parking: Out front of store.

Have always been a fan of Cracker Barrel but had never done a breakfast meal before. The prices were as expected and the food was tasty. Our waitress was exceptional as she had basically a whole side to serve because they were short staffed. She was a go getter and kept a smile the whole time. Can't leave without checking out the merchandise throughout the store. Something in there for everyone. Will be back. Highly recommend.

Meat extremely tough. Server (Aljundro not sure of spelling) rude when I told him and argued with me. Did let me order another dish, but ignored me and my husband the rest of the time. Have had the roast beef many times and this was sub par.

Started off good until we waited already 25 min and then was told they were out of what 2 of our party ordered. Then 2 of our plates were done and delivered cold, one did not get the other half of her order. No napkins on the table. Then we talked to the manager, he thinks everything is made better by not charging us. That does not fix their kitchen and miscommunication problem between the kitchen and the waiters and waitresses. Very frustrating. And the manager had not decency to even make a conversation with our table just walked over promptly and whispered," your food is paid for". Lol, solve your problem that is not how to solve it

We are traveling in an RV, and this was a great place to pull into and have dinner. We spent the night in their parking lot with permission from the manager. However, all of the rv spots had cars parked in them, but there's a couple of areas large enough to park out of the way. It was a safe and quiet place to sleep.Parking: There's 5 parking spots for RV'sand plenty of space to park large vehicles along the back perimeter

Staff - this gentleman was unbelievable- he was moving!!! While we were there he had at least three active tables that I could see -with all of us getting our food close to the same time - he was observant and was very visible watching his tables (last time we were there our server dropped food of and never saw him until he dropped ticket off - assuming he was in kitchen talking??My husband and I was doing a bit of food sharing (I got turkey and he got ham) and felt comfortable in doing so - I had asked about cranberry sauce for turkey and staff made it happen (which made all the difference to my meal).Didn’t care for the dressing (with turkey) which was disappointing- hubby’s ham was delicious.If all staff were like Alejandro what a wonderful experience - he was constantly moving all time we were there be it meeting a customer need or clearing/wiping off tables after customers left.It would be my hope that management recognizes and acknowledges this.
