Can't believe I never reviewed Cracker Barrel after noticing I just reviewed one in a different state.
During the drive over in the rain, I realized on my way that it wasn't Thursday (I was craving turkey hard and this is only served on Thursdays), and although I was disappointed, I had alternatives. What I didn't realize was that this location actually had a 'bar' which is where I decided to seat myself. After perusing the menu (even though I checked it out several times online prior), I decided to go with another turkey option. Of course, they were out. Good lord, I then went with the next best thing, the homestyle chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans (and one biscuit/muffin). Also added on the limited edition berry tea which was the best thing I've done all month (had 3 refills which I never do).
Biscuit/muffin were demolished with all the butters (and single grape jam) provided which probably ruined me since I couldn't finish my main, but I made it through more than half of the first piece of chicken. Sides were fine as usual, although more lukewarm. Was considering the fudge cake dessert but went with one of the takeaway meals ($6 instead of $5 since we're in expensive California) which I'll update once I actually eat it.
As for the service, the hostess and Rebecca were great (the latter was overworked but on it, doing the best she could), but the one who rang me up could have been a little better. I had forgotten to provide my rewards info, but I also wasn't asked to do so, so I suppose this falls onto both of us. I emailed support, hoping they can add this on for me remotely.
Cracker Barrel has always been a mainstay for me; I'll go eat at some overpriced L.A. place, but always return to here eventually. Yes it's far, but worth the while. I only wish they offered turkey daily, but I'll adjust.
