Cracker Barrel Poor service, fireplace not on customers cold

11/24/2023.

We were very disappointed with the service at the mount Arlington location.

We always come here, but recently the service had been not up to par. Shouldn’t wait 20 minutes for someone to take our order. And another 20 minutes to get our orders.

Plus the restaurant is cold and they refused to put on the fireplace to help warm it up.

This really is not the quantity I expected at Cracker Barrel.

There is a side item that I often purchase from Cracker Barrel's. The quantity I order is to serve ten people; I went in today and placed the same order and was told that I could not purchase as always because they were expecting customers tomorrow (Thanksgiving) and they did not want to run out of food! This statement was absolutely asinine to me; you are...

We arrived at Cracker Barrel at 1215 p.m. and had multiple issues at this location. 1. Tried to order soup but said they were completely out of soup. Even though the soup of the day was vegetable soup 2. We ordered a baked potato and it took the server 15. Minutes to let us know that they were out of baked potatoes. Ordered grilled chicken tenders. 3...

Cracker Barrel Defective product

On 31 Oct I stopped at a CrackerBarrel in Bridgeport Michigan. Used my Rewards app to purchase an apple streusel pie. Took it to a family gathering and was absolutely embarrassed and upset, the pie was moldy. I have sent to feedback forms on the app and have heard nothing, sent an email to guest relations and I was first contacted back on Nov 6, and was told within three days I would receive an electronic gift card. I sent a message on the 10th to say I have received nothing. Today is the 19th and still nothing. Totally disappointed, the nearest Cracker Barrel to me is about 120 miles round trip, so just going there would be an expense. I have always been happy with the food and customer service with this company until now.

Claimed loss: Apple streusel pie

Desired outcome: Total refund

Cracker Barrel Website

October 31,2023

Tried to order thanksgiving dinner on line. A total disaster. Not a good website, tried to chat and I never was answered. I ask 3 times if I can go into the store and order. Kept sending me to a tech that I had to pay 1 dollar . Having yo give my credit card number etc. I’m not paying one dime yo get an answer. Then had to look up corporate phone numbers and it sends me to chat sgsin and wanting a dollar. Does anyone at corporate work in office and answers phone. You have it set up do you do not get calls! Why is that! I’m fine!

We arrived at your restaurant and was told a 15-minute wait, this was fine. When seated we were deep in dirty tables. They attempted to bus the one right next to us, our server snapped at the busser not to clean it until she talked to management as she had been working for 22 hours straight. She took our order, took 15 minutes to get drinks (should have...

Cracker Barrel Breakfast (chicken sausage)

My wife and I were regular Cracker Barrel customers, But our complaints with them at the local Cracker Barrel in Hagerstown, Md was why was the turkey sausage taken from the menu? Who ever change it to chicken sausage alt to be fired without remedy. unless they bring back the turkey sausage, we won't be back we'll go to Bob Evans. Also since I had gotten chicken sausage I was charged extra We didn't eat the sausage after tasting it. A restaurant should be in business to please the customer, thats the area Cracker barrel is lacking!

All I can say is BRING BACK THE TURKEY SAUSAGE, at this restaurant I know were not the only one's eating turkey sausage. (I cannot eat pork for health reasons) I expect to hear back from Cracker Barrel Question why ruin a good thing?

Cracker Barrel likely illegal actions of sandra cochran, ceo of cracker barrel

this is a complaint about the likely illegal activities of sandra cochran, ceo of cracker barrel and board member for lowe's.

i had interaction with lowe's over sept. 4, tried to apply for a credit card online (there's should have been no issue, as my credit score is over 800). but the online system glitched and wouldn't let us complete. i called the 800 number offered and was offered the same online system that already glitched multiple times. so, as i already had clicked a "cancel" option in the process, i was told my request would be "declined."

i objected, as my cancellation of a request is not the same as being "declined." i asked to speak to a supervisor for the lowe's program, and the operator hung up on me.

such a statement steals my reputation, lies about me and is crooked in all respects. . cochran, as a board member, is directly responsible for this illegal activity.

please have cochran contact me

regards. mr. unruh, [protected]. or [protected]@gmail.com

Desired outcome: a recognition, in writing, that i canceled the request, and was never "declined."

Cracker Barrel It’s sad that this once great breakfast place

It’s sad that this once great breakfast place has changed the Potato casserole! I have eaten at 3 different places. The food is definitely not the same. Ate in Concord, NC last week, scrambled eggs were running, potato casserole was nasty. There is no taste. My husbands bacon was dripping in grease.

Ate in Greensboro, NC off wendover pretty much the same!

Can’t even eat at the Winston-Salem off union cross! It’s the worst place thus far!

We are done! Breakfast is nasty. Not sure what corners your cutting, but lots of ppl are done with you.

I guess trying different ones made me realize it’s across the board!

Desired outcome: For your information. I don’t need anything
