They're screwing with the peg game as well ... look at the instruction line wording:

Old Peg Game

It’s not going to help.

Corporate blather and jargon

It’s 4 pages too long. They could have, and should have, said what they needed to say in 3 sentences.

Give them a shovel. Force then to dig their own grave.

I saw a video of the interior of one of the newly decorated stores and I really liked it.

However, my wife and I stopped eating there because the consensus is that their food has gone terribly downhill. I’m sure it’s because they want to avoid raising prices in spite of increasing costs. But at the end of the day it means we are no longer fans of their food.

“The restaurant chain, long beloved for its traditional American charm”

I’ve always found it a little disingenuous that more than likely 90% of the merch they sell in the store front is made in china....and the wall art as well more than likely. šŸ˜

Again, this reminds me of the evolution of Fuddruckers in Idiocracy. Step by step...

...but we’ll keep testing, learning, and listening to our guests and employees,ā€ the statement said.

Doesn't seem they've been listening at all. If they keep "listening" like they are now they'll go the way of Steak and Ale...

Nice try but you’ll have the bend the knee and eat this one, CB. Another lesson for corporate America: Beware the girl bosses with the smart girl glasses, and their manifestly stupid ideas. I’m thinking they need to change the logo back, hit some sort of middle ground on the decor, and offer some big promotion. Been there many times while traveling in the Midwest. They’re rare here in CA, but there’s one of the few about ten miles from my
House, and I’d go just to show there’s no hard feelings, but they have to be more contrite than this

Guess I missed out on that one. Fuddrucker’s Fudded up I guess.

Well, Cracker Barrel cracked their own barrel.

Now they have to live with that. I don’t go where the alphabet people are hailed.

ā€œA Promise to Our Guestsā€

Pure vagueness and avoidance of the real issue.

We're sorry. We will keep our traditional logo. We fired our CEO.
