For the upcoming spring season, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store is refreshing its menu. The lineup includes returning favorites, seasonal dishes, and all-day breakfast options. Classics like the Ham Dinner and Fried Catfish are back at the center of the menu.
Classic Favorites Take Center Stage at Cracker Barrel
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store is a well-known, decades-old restaurant chain that operates hundreds of locations across the country. The longstanding restaurant was founded in 1969 and is known for its homestyle cooking and country-style retail shops. It is welcoming spring with a refreshed menu that includes returning favorites and seasonal dishes.
The spring menu brings back several longtime guest favorites, including the Ham Dinner and Fried Catfish.
- The Ham Dinner features sugar-cured or country ham. The dish is served with a choice of classic sides such as dumplings, fried cinnamon apples, hash brown casserole, macaroni & cheese, and mashed potatoes. Fans can also choose warm buttermilk biscuits or corn muffins to complete the meal.
- The Fried Catfish includes two cornmeal-fried, U.S. farm-raised fillets served with tartar sauce and hushpuppies, along with a choice of sides. The Smoky Southern Salmon has returned with an updated recipe offering a deeper, savory flavor. It can be ordered as an entrée, paired with shrimp, or added to a salad.
Vice President of Menu Strategy and Innovation at Cracker Barrel, Thomas Yun, shared that the spring season has always been a time for bringing people together, which reflects the company’s values. According to the PR Newswire report, he also added, “Our spring menu brings back the flavors guests know and love, while offering new ways to enjoy the comfort and care that make Cracker Barrel feel like home.”
Carrot cake is back as a dessert option, made with coconut, pineapple, walnuts, cinnamon, and vanilla, and topped with cream cheese icing and pecans.
All-Day Breakfast Highlights the Spring Menu
Breakfast remains available all day at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, with two new savory scrambles added to the lineup.
- The Farmhouse Scramble includes bacon, sugar ham, peppers, onions, and Colby cheese, topped with a sweet and spicy maple syrup drizzle.
