Cracker Barrel has made its way into the internet zeitgeist as the hybrid restaurant and country store has been rolling out its redesigned interiors and new logo to mixed reviews, but its CEO told "Good Morning America" this week that the feedback so far has been "overwhelmingly positive."
"People like what we're doing," Julie Felss Masino told "GMA" on Tuesday, in response to the shift to more modern country touches. "Cracker Barrel needs to feel like the Cracker Barrel for today and for tomorrow -- the things that you love are still there. We need people to choose us, and we want people to choose us."
Masino added that at a recent on-site meeting with managers in Florida, the "No. 1 question I got asked was, 'How can I get a remodel, when can I get a remodel, and how do I get on the list?'"
"The buzz is so good, not only from our customers, but from our team," she said.
Masino also announced the company's new campaign on Tuesday, dubbed "All the More," which she said "highlights how people feel about Cracker Barrel."
"It is bigger than just a meal. We have a retail shop, you're gonna get great country hospitality with our scratch-made food in our restaurants, and that's really what the campaign celebrates," she explained.

You must be a mind reader! I had the very same thought. Regards
There is a point where lying from a CEO just pisses off customers even more.
Why lie?
Yeah. I'm sure Heinerscheid told the board at Bud Light that too.
Sorry, I don’t believe it. Maybe her employees are afraid to tell her her idea stinks?
Deliberately done.
Liberals are liars, but liberals do talk to only liberals. Us conservatives can recite the liberal talking points and even discuss the reasoning behind their talking points. However, liberals can’t do that with conservative talking points, because they dont talk to conservatives.
I’m guessing Cracker Barrel isn’t really based in Lebanon, TN (small town USA) anymore?
I miss Uncle Herschel...
He is the guy sitting in the chair in the old logo.
Because we live and work with liberals.
But liberals do not live or work with conservatives.
Notably, the Cracker Barrel CEO is talking with the legacy media, specifically Good Morning America. Whether the negative buzz in the conservative media results in a drop in sales depends on a Bud Light or Gillette bottom up reaction.
I think it’s still here in TN.
A few months ago they had a huge warehouse auction of the folksy decor. Now I know why.
Exactly. Liberals dont talk to conservatives.
Lying is not a good trait of a CEO.
That's their biggest challenge in '26 and '28.
Bill Clinton knew how to talk to Conservatives in Arkansas.
Gavin Newsom?
No way.

I live in Hawaii.
I don’t think we have too many
“Cracker Barrels” here.
One thing I do know is we have very few Blacks
on my island.
I’m not called a “Cracker”,
I’m called a “Haole”
That word applies to everybody that is not of Hawaiian decent. Much more fair than Nigga politics.
Niggas don’t do so well here. Hawaiians don’t like
them. You have to earn your keep here.
Just like I did!
Let me guess: Female MBA?
The CEO is full of you know what. She is running the company into the ground and will be gone within one year or less.
