When two old friends drew plans in the dirt forty years ago for a new restaurant, there weren't too many people expecting a whole lot from that parcel of land on Highway 109, including them! But Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® has done what few other restaurant companies could – it has grown into a national favorite that satisfies its guests’ hunger for good country cookin’, genuine hospitality, and honest value, both in its restaurant and in its retail store. Along the way, Cracker Barrel has tried to remain true to its values from “back then” while staying relevant and important to its guests now.
