For your amusement:
TL/dw: Another female CEO tanks a long-established company. Her disparaging remarks about the company, Cracker Barrel, calling it irrelevant, and her pathetic attempts to drive away customers including rainbow colored rocking chairs on the porches to attract gen-Zers under the hypothesis that all gen-Zers are alphabet people, cause the stock to tank in the last week. 11 minute video, half that played at 2x: Woke Girlboss Cracker Barrel Restaurant CEO TANKS Entire Company In 1 Phone Call! A Worse Bud Light |

I have been there a few times, wifey's pick, not value, as food is very mediocre.
I would classify as budget, fills your belly if you have low standards. |

But still, they've done pretty well for a long time, even if they've had some troubles of late (like many restaurants). The CEO (chick in charge) should STFU, IMO. It's not her job to diss the company she is being paid to shill for. I'm fairly sure she's supposed to spin things in a good way. |

Shoving your woke horseshit down everyone's throat is always a wise business practice. I can't believe this is backfiring for her. Poor thing.

They bulldozed our local Golden Corral, closed Macaroni Grill and Red Lobster is on life support. Not sure how some of these big chains step on their own ....
In my area, if you don't give somebody hepatitis, serve decent food with polite wait staff its hard not to make money. |

Teh few off the Interstate Cracka Barrels in my Neck of the Rust Belt are real Examples of . . .
Ebony & Ivory ~ Eatin' Pancakes and Fried Foods in perfect ~ Harmony 'Bout a 50/50 split demographically of both Locals and Tourists / and Melatonin Identities Additionally ~ The Cheese Brand is NOT Affiliated with the Home Spun Gift Shop / Dirty Restroom / Sticky Wood Table Restaurant Brand One other Item of Note ~ The Resteraunts with the Rusty Farm Tools hanging over head on thin gauge wire . . . Seems like a Law Suit waiting to happen when a Rusty Saw Blade slices through Grandma's Minnie Pearl Hat and Wig and impacts her cranium . . Jus Sayin' Added + Added Note: ~ their Mini Syrup Bottles can be reused to hold single use brown colored Spirts ( hint / hint ) unelected as Booze if ya gotta HIDE Booze in any given situation ![]() |

The whole theme of their restaurants is classic Americana. Classic Americana is traditional, family values......not alphabet rocking chairs. People go to those restaurants to eat comfort food, and look at antiques, artifacts from a time in America those people liked. That's the customer base for Cracker Barrel, in the same way "bratty, fratty, blue collar is (well, was) the customer base for Bud Light.

Cracker Barrel was always a family favorite while traveling. But the last time I ate there, maybe 5 years ago, it was a new store style where the entire dining room was wide open. No partitions separating different sections. It was very off-putting sitting in a sea of people with tables crammed together. You had to literally squeeze between other customers to enter and exit your table.

Haven't been to one in years. Would meet my subcontractors for breakfast meetings back in the day.
I've noticed the past several years that some allow overnight camping/parking in their lots, wtf? |

When on the road I'd much rather eat at Cracker Barrell than any "fast food" place like McDonalds etc. I'll take mediocre food over shit any day of the week.

I can't remember the last time I ate at one of those, but the rainbow chairs would be enough to make me go on down the road.
