Cracker Barrel Is Making A Major Change & Customers Are NOT Happy: ‘It’s Giving Soulless’

Comments like “Corporate minimalism strikes again” and “The atmosphere was the whole reason to go” reflect a widespread sentiment: the redesign might be erasing what made Cracker Barrel unique in the first place.

Some have compared the new interiors to Bob Evans, lamenting the loss of personality and warmth. For now, many locations still retain the original aesthetic, but with growing public backlash, Cracker Barrel may need to reconsider how far it’s willing to modernize—or risk losing the very guests who cherished its old-school vibe.
