Cracker Barrel

Allergy menu but not a lot of selection on Gluten Free

The restaurant had an allergen menu which I was excited about, until I looked at it and realized there aren’t many options. You can basically just have eggs or yogurt for breakfast. The breakfast meats are gluten free but they are cooked on a shared grill so not safe for celiacs. The staff working that day was not familiar with celiac disease or cross contamination.

The “wheat free” menu doesn’t have ANY meats. Their grilled chicken and grilled catfish should be safe and didn’t cause a reaction but aren’t listed.

We had read options online, suggestion grilled chicken, pork chops and other options. Got there and asked if they had a separate menu. Our server said “yes, but it’s VERY small”. We ended up with 2 eggs, fried apples, baked sweet potato and pinto beans. We are both very sick now, only 1.5 hours later :(

We came here for breakfast and disappointed to see there was not many options, (not a menu, just a list) the only breakfast item they had was egg, fresh fruit, and yogurt. I Would say not celiac friendly since they couldn't tell me or guarantee me if other items in the regular menu were GF.

love it! The GF menu doesn't match their online one.

Not Celiac friendly and they have fewer safe options now then ever before.

One of the worst gf breakfast menus for a chain restaurant I’ve seen. Choices are eggs, egg whites, yogurt and fruit. That is it.

Definitely NOT celiac friendly. I’ve been severely sick twice from them. I ordered eggs, bacon, and sausage. I was horribly sick within hours.

Had breakfast of bacon and eggs here. Also had grilled chicken tenders dinner with mashed potatoes and green beans. Decent food for a decent price. I was confused with the allergen menu they gave me, so I started pulling info from different websites about what the chain has that's GF (which is a lot). Not sure if celiac friendly.

Don’t count on too much. Mostly sides. No gluten free bread. Salad is about it.

Ok, so I would like to have NEVER expected a CRACKER BARRELL to be Gluten Friendly, but I went to one with my Non-Celiac Family on vacation, and the Manager at this location not only knew what gluten was, he made me my breakfast (2 scrambled eggs with cheese, 3 strips of bacon, & a side of hashbrowns) adeptly because his daughter has Celiac, hypoglycemia & cannot eat dairy. I THOROUGHLY enjoyed eating like types food as my family with my family & felt FINE all day long!! Thank you, Cracker Barrel!!!

I had to go online to find my options and even then I couldn’t do what other suggested. All of their meats have been seasoned or fried already, so you can’t ask for them to do it plain. I had the sugar ham with steamed broccoli and mashed potatoes which was fine. The staff I had wasn’t very knowledgable, but then again I came at a time that was SUPER busy and didn’t ask any other questions. If you go to celiac-disease.com they have a list of what is most likely safe.

They have food allergy menu, just ask. Son ordered off regular menu, the signature cheese burger and asked they remove the bun. It was an awesome experience in my son's eye's so we will be back.

Menu had no meal options other than vegetables.

They are able to remove things to accommodate for certain items

Tried to be safe, had a menu, asked the waitress and listened, but something Still got me.

Staff was friendly & tried to be helpful. At one point three employees were searching for the ONE gf menu in the Tallahassee restaurant. They never found it. I felt safe eating bacon & eggs but was disappointed they do not have gf waffles, pancakes, biscuits, etc.

Only come here if you like eggs! Nothing else suitable for a celiac diet.

Gluten free menu online 0 consistent with restaurant. Hostess unaware of what gluten was. Did have 1 menu for allergies available in the restaurant. Did not eat here due to above.

limited for GF. Salads and veggies. No breads or proteins. I had the chef salad, no croutons, and a bowl of pinto beans Food was good. Love the store.

Very few gluten free choices. Wait staff not very knowledgeable but were quick to check with kitchen to verify food safety.

very nice and took time to talk with us about what gluten free items were available. they have a allergy list with the items we could have and had no problems

Not worth the risk! They've updated the gf menu to mostly veggies and yogurt and even then cross contamination is a nightmare!

They do have a separate GF menu, however it is limited to a few vegetable sides. No entrees or desserts are GF. Food and service is reasonable, but they certainly have not tried very hard to become celiac friendly.

Didn't have anything other than vegetables on the gluten-free menu. Ordered a plain side salad, green beans and a baked potato. They couldn't even bring my food all at the same time. By the time I received my potato, the rest of my group had finished eating. The potato wasn't cooked completely, the green beans were ok, the salad had brown edged lettuce.

Small portions. Over priced. Cluttered. Not a fan.

I had a horrible experience last time I went here. I would not recommend it to anyone! I can’t fathom why it is even coming up on this app. The waitress told me “Ma’am, we serve comfort foods here and if you can’t eat those, you are at the wrong place!” 😡 Wish I could give it zero stars.

Cracker Barrel needs to step up their game! It shouldn’t be impossible this day and time to find food on a restaurant menu that doesn’t contain gluten. It’s crazy! You can’t hardly eta anything here if you are celiac!

Had breakfast there. Very friendly staff, but they only offered eggs, yoghurt without granola and fruits on their GF breakfast menu. I asked for GF bread, there was none which was very dull (couldn’t they just have GF bread in the freezer, and keep a separate toaster for the GF bread? Or put GF bread in a plastic bag and microwave it. Like other restaurants do). Also they don’t seem to know the difference between “wheat “ and “gluten”, since they got it mixed up in the menu.

Very few breakfast options for GF. My daughter and I both had tummy issues after eating there today. Seem to be less accommodating than in previous years. Do have an allergy menu that lists items in major allergen categories . No meats on the wheat free list. All are cooked on common griddle. My daughter only had poached eggs and still had issues.

Very little I could eat due to dairy allergy too. Staff made me very uncomfortable but tried to help.

No Gluten Free toast for breakfast

Menu is very odd and SMALL. Lists eggs, vegs and ice cream. Disappointed!!!!

Salad was served with crackers and biscuits although waitress was told 3 times no crackers..no croutons..no biscuits. She offered to take the crackers off and have the kitchen replace food just where the crackers were. NO! Hubby had salad for late dinner.

The veggies here are very delicious!

No gluten free options don't waste your time!

Like everywhere else that isn’t a dedicated gluten free restaurant, they can’t say it’s for sure gluten free but I eat here at least three times a week and have no issues. I have all the grilled fish, hamburger steak or grilled chicken tenders. They have a variety of sides I can eat, too. And it’s always good!

I ate off their gluten sensitive menu and I was also very clear that I had an allergy; however, I was horrible sick the next day so they must have cross contaminated my food.

Cracker Barrel doesnt even make an attempt at gf anymore...avoid at all costs. Id put zero stars if i could.

We've eaten there twice and both times hubby felt sick. Not horrible sick but defiantly I don't feel good need to lay down sick. The last time we went the manager came and talked to us and told us what was truly safe and what wasn't so he ordered eggs and the sweet apples. Came out with a biscuit in the eggs and when we pointed out he can't have that he's Celiac the waitress rolled her eyes and took it away and came brought new eggs but he still got sick. The only reason I didn't give this a 1 star is the manager tried to be real helpful which is always nice but we won't be going again. Meat is cooked on the same skillet as the pancakes. She did assure us the eggs are on their own surface but still....

Handy laminated allery menu for no egg, no wheat, no soy, etc. It says to notify the manager if cross contamination is a concern for you. No protein on the list (thus my 3 star rating).

Asked for a gluten free menu and was handed an allergy book. I asked the server for information on food prep and informed him I am Celiac. He said the salad was prepared separately, and if on the allergy menu, should be okay. I think there’s too much risk of cross contamination to be really celiac safe.

I had a Cobb salad and had no reaction.

They state GF menu, however it is only veggies and fruits that are GF. No meats, pasta, etc. Also, wouldn't recommend for celiac due to cross contamination. I had mashed potatoes and carrots for dinner.😐

Not gluten free at all. Within 10 mins of eating what I thought was gluten free (grilled pork chop, green beans and turnip greens) I was sick. Waitresses did not understand was gluten free or celiac was. Very disappointed

Their gluten free options are very very limited. It’s one little tiny page. Sucks. Go somewhere else.

They have a few gluten free items, but it’s not celiac safe. They make biscuits all day long in a shared kitchen. I’ve had a manager tell me they can not say anything is “gluten free” once it’s prepared.

This is an excellent choice. They will have a manager prepare the food, and they are aware of celiac and very careful. My daughter has eaten here numerous times and has not had any problems .

Julie the Manager cooked the food and delivered it to the table personally to ensure no cross contamination. Melissa was our server and was very helpful with our food selection. I highly recommend this restaurant!

The Manager oversaw the preparation to ensure that there was no cross contamination. Excellent job!
