“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could give 10 stars, I would because Bryson earned every one of them! Since COVID, restaurant service has really gone downhill in so many places, but Bryson at the Cracker Barrel in Denton completely changed my outlook. From the moment we sat down, he was warm, welcoming, and genuinely fun to talk to. His energy made the whole experience feel personal and memorable. The food came out fast, hot, and absolutely delicious. It was exactly how you hope comfort food will be. But Bryson was the real star of the show. He did not just serve us; he made us feel like old friends sharing a meal together. That kind of attention and care is rare these days and it deserves recognition. If you ever find yourself at the Cracker Barrel in Denton, Texas, do yourself a favor and ask to sit in Bryson’s section. You will leave smiling, satisfied, and genuinely impressed. And when you do, make sure to leave him the biggest tip you can because the experience he gives is absolutely worth it. Bryson, you are the definition of great hospitality. Cracker Barrel is lucky to have you!“

“Took my dad there for his first visit. Food was good and tasty however, his salmon was a bit overcooked and a lil dry bit he liked it nonetheless. Service was good and it was sweet to take a couple complimentary croissants home. They make for a sweetl delicious treat. Don't forget to tip your servers. Now, go get your grub on.“
