Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

Fieldstown Road is a nice road full of restaurants conveniently located along Interstate 65.  Cracker Barrel is one of the great restaurants on this road and is the best spot to go when you want a good sit-down breakfast or dinner.

6/29/2013 The ac is on the fritz.  The dining room floor is slippery all over and it looked like the last party at our table spilled at least two glasses of tea under the table.  I told the hostess as soon as she tried to seat us over the puddle and she brought a dripping mop and proceeded to make it worse by just spreading the water around.  Its been 30 min since we ordered and no food yet.  Not too good.  Our waitress is new and needed some guidance, but the older waitress who came to "show her how its done" screwed up our orders even more and wouldn't listen to us as we tried to tell her who got what.  I ordered grill catfish and she kept calling it salmon, which two others at our table had ordered.  When every one else had been eating for 15 minutes and mine was not there I told them to cancel it.  So I did get it my entree free.  This is not a waitress problem or a kitchen problem, this is a management problem.  We won't be back for awhile.

This birmingham cracker barrel had things working against the grain with yelp before I even entered.... a) there are ten cracker barrels in between montgomery and nashville b) its not a yelp fan kind of  franchise c) everything in the 'authentic american store' was made in china d) i went to it for my valentines dinner which added guilt. However, due to the waiting service and unpretentious hospitality it did the trick and earned what no other cracker barrell will easily receive in the future....4 stars. We got 8 biscuits for free, tilapia with fries, and dumplings with a salmon cake. yup. Went there the next day on the way back from nashville.
