Not even a recession can come between me and Cracker Barrel.

I agree with you. There is plenty I would cut back on but Cracker Barrel would not be one of them.

Same here...being Kentuckians stuck in NE Ohio we were pleased to find a Cracker Barrel 4 miles from our house. Apparently the yankees up here like it as well because it’s always packed.

I've eaten there twice. It seems fat and salt were the two things on the menu. Even the kids hated it.

What did I miss?

Cracker Barrel is the worst. For one thing, they don't serve beer or wine is is simply inexcusable for a proper restaurant.

But aside from that, their food is bland and unappetizing, served by waitresses that remind me of Church Lady from SNL.

On top of that, you got the hokey "front porch" with the chairs and swinging benches (all with price tags) that are the exact same whether you are in Tennessee or Massachusetts.

Worst of all, you got the ticky-tacky gift shop with the "They'll Do It Every Time" glasses, the Duck Dynasty calendars and the "Now That's What They Call Music" CDs.

Our last few Cracker Barrel visits (2 or 3 different states while traveling) were really disappointing in terms of both food and service, to the point I don’t know if we’ll continue to patronize them.
