Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

We have TRIED to dine at this Cracker Barrel. After sitting for 22 minutes with no acknowledgement whatsoever, no drinks, nothing, we chose to leave. This same thing happened to us about a month ago. That time asked for the manager, she spoke with us offered free items which I declined. I just asked that she do a better job of serving the seated customers. She said that she would. Clearly this did not happen. Today when we were leaving a very kind server asked us why we were leaving and she offered to serve us personally. I was very impressed with her concern and kindness, but declined the offer. We love Cracker Barrel, but this is the third very bad experience in a row for us at the Manassas store!

It was ok. Disappointed in the cook in the pancakes and the dumplings were super salty. Eggs were also very cold. Expected better.

A bottle of soda to-go costs as much as a premium side ($3.49). You can get the same soda for a dollar less at your local hardware store. I had a curbside and waited forever. The web said 7:59 ready time (got there 5 minutes early, and I didn't get my order (one meal) until 9:00. The delay was caused by one of my sides (broccoli casserole) not being available, but I only found this out because of a lack of patience (subbed for baked potatoe). I watched car after car get their order, and not tipping is sincerely what I think caused this (exceeded daily per diem). My business should be enough. The end of order process literally says, "Don't forget to tip", for what? A to-go order? You're getting paid to prepare that and then I'm gone. Top to bottom, this location is about the money. Not at all happy; and, if it wasn't for some understanding, the review would be much worse.

After waiting an hour, I walked in to find my food on the shelf with the item they said they didn't have, they stayed it wasn't brought out because the ticket said online order, but I literally had a curbside notification and spoke to the manager on the phone about the substituted item with details of it being a curbside order. The kitchen remaking my food is the only reason I gave this location three stars. However, in dont think it was remade, because the contents of the box remained the same and I received the side they were supposedly out of.

I had a barrel bites reward that they would not let me redeem because of a limited menu. Chicken and dumplings were a little gummy and light on the sauce.

Love the food. We came for Thanksgiving early dinner. I just prefer the regular stuffing instead of corn bread stuffing.

We ordered some to-go on Thanksgiving. We have done this in years past. It was very efficient picking up. However, we get chicken and dumplings with sides of dumplings. It’s a side my daughter loves. This particular time none of our dumplings actually had any dumplings. It was literally all just the gravy. We received three sides of gravy with no dumplings. We like 40 minutes away so trining around to run back out wasn’t really an option.

As you can see in the pictures. There is lumpy gravy with one piece of chicken and then the other sides are just lumpy gravy. Zero dumplings.
