“ Tonight I enjoyed a delicious hand rolled tenderloin sandwich. It was meaty, tender and cooked to perfection, on a soft bun. Their food is always top notch, including broasted chicken, potato wedges, pizza, burritos, subs, pie, ice cream and more. I highly recommend it! ”
“ The staff cooking are always so nice! The food and service is excellent! Taco Salad has chips, salsa & queso! Very nicely decorated like the original cracker barrel. ”
“ This was our first time eating here. Always heard wonderful things, and let me tell you those things were RIGHT! My husband and I went out for a date night Thursday night, we loved this place. Food was absolutely amazing. Their fried chicken was so juicy, and that's surprising for white meat. It is usually really dry but this chicken was on a whole nother level. I got the seafood platter, and my goodness their was so much wonderful food on my plate, I took the rest in a to go box.Well done! We will definitely be back ”
“ This is a quaint little place, just a little off the beaten path. I stopped by on a whim and I am so glad that I did! It's a family owned business that is maintained by the second generation. The food is mostly family recipes that are absolutely delightful. If you like sweet in your pickles eggs and beets, they are most definitely a must try! The owner served me and I felt like I was at home. He is very warm and sincere and the service was prompt and timely. If you are in the area, you can't go wrong with a stop @ the barn. ”
“ I was in town for work and stopped up the road here for a nice lunch. We were met with wonderful smiling faces, a great atmosphere, and great food! The owners were very friendly and came out to talk to us. The owners husband shared the history of the restaurant and the story behind the unique decor. He described that he usually sees celebrities hanging on the walls of restaurants and to him, local folks were his celebrities. Some pieces of decor had to do with local racers, local musicians and just the general history of Union City. This place reminded me of what it felt like to be recognized in a small town. Overall wonderful place and I highly recommend making a trip! ”
“ This was a spectacular stop. The food was very reasonably priced, and good quality the fried chicken was in the top tier, anywhere. I wish it was not so far out of the way for me. ”
“ I love this restaurant so much. We come to eat with my husband’s grandparents every now and then and I love it every single time. After trying a few different items I just get chicken, mashed potatoes, mac n cheese, and sweet tea. The fried chicken is some of the best in the area, the prices are great, the menu is perfectly diverse and sized, and the atmosphere is wonderful it’s like what cracker barrel used to be with so much charm and cute decor. My favorite is all of the cow figures! They have blue bell ice cream for dessert which is a 10/10 brand. A fantastic little hole in the wall I’d make the drive for anytime. ”
