In Short
Originating in Lebanon Texas, this country store and restaurant has branched out all over the U.S. The décor includes old advertising signs, farm equipment, early kitchen appliances and photos which complement the country-style seating. Their menu includes home-style comfort foods like meatloaf and house-made mashed potatoes daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Make sure to stop into the gift shop for souvenirs and a variety of knick-knacks.

The best value

by petergaryr at Citysearch

Whether breakfast, lunch or dinner, Cracker Barrel has something for everybody.

Best is breakfast with real maple syrup, fluffy eggs and crisp bacon.

Mashed potatoes are "real" and not from a box. Meatloaf is soft and moist.

• Pros: Consistency, Value, Store items
• Cons: Wait times

Hands Down and Granpa's Favorite!

by savvytravelagent at Citysearch

The Cracker Barrel chain restaurant in any city is always one of if not the best choice for breakfast 24 hrs. The Old Timers and Grand Pa's breakfast entrees are served hot and superb. Be sure to ask for extra gravy or strawberry jam with sour dough toast. The staff is friendly, unfortunately the distance for most to the restaurant is quite a jaunt. Enjoy -- the worst thing is that they did away with the frequent diner's club.

• Pros: Hot and Tasty, Above Average Service, Clean and Orderly
• Cons: No Frequent Diner Clb, Parking at Some Hours

Bob is Better

by lyle1414 at Citysearch

If you like Cracker Barrel, you should try the new Bob Evans that has opened up just north of 295 on San Jose Blvd in Mandarin. They serve the same home cooking style meals - but they taset even better. I suggest you try the Country Bisquit Breakfast - a fresh bisquit topped with crumbled sausage, an egg (I like mine scrambled), creamy country gravy, and shredded cheddar cheese served with a delicious side of home fries. If you're there in the morning, ask for Pat, she is one of the best servers in the business!

Very Family Friendly

This is a busy restaurant that draws a large family crowd. The portions are large and prices reasonable. This is a good place for a big Sunday breakfast. Wait times are long, so browse the gift shop.
