Good breakfast diner. But always packed, expect to wait. They offer online wait list but it makes no point since you still have to check in when you get there.

The place was packed. There is not much of a waiting area inside so the store at front get really tight. Wait time was about 40 min. But food was delicious. Service was great and friendly. Portions were good and the pricing is very reasonable.

Never a let down. Come here every time I visit town. The good is great, the staff is wonderful and the food, well I order the same thing every time but it's always perfect! Love the kids area when waiting, a bit hard to not impulse buy but then again you can wait outside.

The food was okay at most as well as the service. I ordered the meatloaf with greenbeans and beef soup on the side, and sweet tea. The food wasn't anything special. Plain flavor. The sweet tea was way too sweet. For dessert, I ordered the peach cobbler. I was disappointed. The peaches tasted like canned or jar peaches, and they most likely were. Moreover, the waiter would forget to bring stuff(extra butter or refills) on occasions. However, he did a good job overall by checking on me once in a while and asking if everything was good. The side store makes up for what the restaurant is overall.

Service was very bad , our server never checked on us. Had hand raised for a good 3 minutes for a refill on coffee. And still ,no one came to our table. Finally got the attention of one of the managers ? And he sent another server to fill our cups. We make a trip to San Antonio once a year. Our food there is always hot and Service is GREAT 👍🏻 Wish this restaurant took better care of their guests.

My family and I visit this Cracker Barrel once every couple of months. The food has been better recently relative to when it first opened and we enjoy going here. The service is usually good, although they seem to have a high turnover rate so you never know. Anytime I've had an issue with my food, the manager has been quick to reconcile it. The store section is well stocked and has a good selection of seasonal merchandise. The bathrooms are kept clean as well.

Great place for something other than the usual breakfast tacos. I love their pancakes with the crunchy edges. Fast and friendly service.

I took my mom here to eat recently because she has been craving meatloaf and I got a burger. When I asked if they had blue cheese my server said they did but what she brought me instead was blue cheese dressing in a little container which is totally different! I asked for blue cheese on my burger but I was sadly disappointed. The dressing sucked and I'm not going to put dressing on the burger. My mom's meatloaf grossed me out and didn't leave her desiring to come back for more. It had these little unidentifiable pieces of I don't know what it was... were they some type of sinew or unidentifiable legumes? Who knows, but it grossed her out she only ate half of it and she only ate it because she was very hungry. We're the type of people that don't complain we just don't come back. We don't like making a big deal although it's true we are paying for it so we do have a right to ask for something else. Other than that I do like the store that's there, we did some shopping and I like the old timey decor.

Every single time I come here for breakfast, I have yet to have a bad experience. It's real crowded but the wait is usually worth the food. The biscuits are so dang good. Their eggs are just like grandma used to make them. The servers are extremely nice and extremely helpful. The prices are just right lol. Seriously though, it's not too expensive nor too cheap.
