My experience at the restaurant was quite disappointing. The food was average, and the service left much to be desired. We waited two hours for our meals, which arrived completely without seasoning. To add to our frustration, my friend had to manage with just a knife and no fork, even though we were promised that a fork would be provided. Overall, it was a very frustrating visit. Food: 1, Service: 1, Atmosphere: 1.

I had the best Cracker Barrel experience in years! The food was excellent and even surpassed my expectations. Our server, Paxton, delivered outstanding service, and the entire staff was friendly. They had plenty of Nightmare Before Christmas merchandise and a bunch of adorable new Christmas ornaments as well! I would definitely travel from Atlanta just to visit again. :P Meal type: Dinner

**Review:** As we were being seated, I noticed a tip left on the table by the previous guests. The host glanced at me nervously and quickly said, "Don't take that," before removing it. I found this comment unnecessary and a bit awkward. Once at our table, we realized we were lacking some silverware and asked for more, but unfortunately, it never arrived. One of my friends had to manage with just a knife for his meal. The wait was frustrating—over an hour to get seated and then another hour for our food to come out, which made us eager to leave. Regarding the service, the staff had rather unpleasant attitudes and often stared at us. I’m not sure if they were taken aback by our mixed group, which included a Black man and Asian individuals, but laughing at us when we left, especially after such poor service, felt highly offensive. On a positive note, the chicken and lemonade were quite tasty.
