“It was Sunday about 2:00pm. A 20 minute wait was reasonable. When we ordered they were out of the pot roast I requested. Changed my order to meatloaf, carrots and greens. Waited about 45 minutes for food. When it was delivered, I was told they were out of the greens and needed to choose a replacement. The wait staff were wonderful and did mention it had been a little slower than usual that day. Fortunately, this restaurant has not yet been ransacked and destroyed by the new remodel, though it is coming. My family has always enjoyed Cracker Barrel for many years. Good home style cooking and cozy atmosphere. We will miss it and will not be returning post remodel. We can get that atmosphere anywhere. Cracker Barrel will no longer be special, it will be gutted. I know there are many who will disagree and that's okay. I can only speak for my family.“

Unfortunately I wanted pickles on it and the bald cook said to bad they don’t come on it. Went to the cashier inquiring about how to get pickles and Alessandra went out of her way to get me some! From taking our order to resolving my pickle problem she was amazing! Will come back just for Her!!! She’s wonderful 🙌🏽“

“I love this place! When I was a young child I would play T Ball on this property and as a adult I would frequently enjoy steak night when they opened the bar and grill on this property. Once they even had all of us at the fire station (Sandy Oaks VFD) judge a BBQ contest there. Today we joined together for a family meal they hosted after the loss of a family member. They have always cared about others and the community and today was no difference. Josie has a little shop in there with so so so many cute things, from jewlery, clothes, and hats to household decor. I definitely will be coming back to do some more shopping. If your in the area on the weekend and you need a little break from the hustle and bustle of life I highly recommend stopping by, grabbing a drink, catching up with old or new friends and even doing a little shopping inside the bar.“

“Average sports bar with fried food and burgers. Lots of huge TVs above the bar Service was OK prices were reasonable. Enjoyed my fried pickles. The 3lb burger we ordered to share was just a 3lb burger nothing special tasted rather bland. Bottom of bun was really soggy. Topped with plenty of bacon which helped with flavor. No choice of cheese just plain old easy singles American.
The Hienz ketchup bottle on the table opened with a pop and tasted a bit ripe.
Fries were not great. First batch was cold and tasted of oil. Second batch were a little better but really salty.“

“The fish here really is good. The only disappointment was the fries. For a family pack, the amount of fries given were not even enough for one person. Also tried the chicken burger. It was a very simple sandwich, just a formed chicken patty, tartar sauce and pickles, but it was pretty decent for the price. It was on sale for $1.15. The employee that helped me in the drive thru was very nice and they filled my order pretty quickly considering it was freshly fried.“

My husband got the chicken Alfredo with broccoli, my mom got the chicken tender salad, my son got the chicken tenders with fries, and I got the salad with blackened salmon. The lemonade is really good!

If you don’t know the way of salvation, please read🙏

“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.”
‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭3‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.”
‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭4‬-‭6‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.”
‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭21‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭18‬:‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬

May the Lord bless you in Jesus name amen“
