The New Logo Has Been Pulled and the Old Is Back
The updated logo, which ditched the “Uncle Herschel” character and the words “Old Country Store,” has been tossed. The old one is back. “We have heard our guests, and we are continuing to listen. We are focused on the kitchen and our guests’ plates and serving up generous portions of craveable food with Cracker Barrel’s warm country hospitality,” a Cracker Barrel spokesperson said.
The restaurant also tossed a plan to update restaurants, giving them a modern, sleek look. They have already remodeled four of 660. “You’ve shared your voices in recent weeks not just on our logo, but also on our restaurants. We’re continuing to listen. Today, we’re suspending our remodels. If your restaurant hasn’t been remodeled, you don’t need to worry, it won’t be,” the company said in a statement posted to its website. “We heard clearly that the modern remodel design does not reflect what you love about Cracker Barrel,” the company said. “The vintage Americana you love will always be here — the rocking chairs on the porch, our fireplaces and peg games, unique treasures in our gift shop and antiques pulled straight from our warehouse in Lebanon, Tennessee.”
Handmade Biscuits Are Returning
Cracker Barrel is announcing the return of handmade biscuits on Wednesday, which will be “rolled by hand and baked fresh throughout the day,” they said. “Cracker Barrel was built on biscuits, so when you told us our biscuits weren’t the same anymore, we took it to heart,” the company will say on social media Wednesday. “We aim to serve up the best food possible, starting with our biscuits. From now on, our biscuits will be even better than you remember. Rolled by hand and baked fresh throughout the day.

Did they fire their woke CEO?
S#itcan that Smart Glasses-wearing CEO and I’d call it a win.
Fireplaces?
I never saw one, but haven’t been to a CB in >30 years.
Lookit them crawdad!
Did Cracker Barrel decide to quit funding far-left entities?
If so, they haven’t announced it yet.
Dang. Nothing about putting the deviled egg and large cheese wedge back into their salad.
Ours has a huge fireplace.
Good.
Here’s hoping.
I suppose I should go visit a CB again soon.
I’m off to Tenn. next month, so that should be an easy stop.
Quality food, good service, and a clean restaurant. Focus on the basics and don’t skimp on that. Glad to hear they’re listening to customers.
An early Cracker Barrel picture on FR showed an old rifle on the wall. If that goes, then that will be a tell of what to expect down the road.
Thank God - and thanks to the good people who run Cracker Barrel. And thanks for bringing back handmade biscuits.
I don’t need to know anything as I have not nor will not eat there. Stop telling as “what we need to know.”
They could have saved a lot of money by listening to their customer base earlier.
Have they sh*t-canned the woketard CEO yet? Until that happens, I won’t set foot in Cracker Barrel again.
Sounds like they got some sense knocked into their heads.
“what we need to know,” same as “You are making everything wrong,” “you won’t believe our surprise pick,” and a myriad of others. I do not blame them as they are struggling for your eyeballs as the former Intel chief said. Ok, just do not take us for fools.
