Cracker Barrel Old Country Store 5706 Northridge Drive, Gurnee, IL 60031

"Had a great time, this was my first time here actually. Went with my kids and my sister's entire family. Service was good, no complaints. Food was the same; very good, and no complaints! Everyone was happy...and they serve breakfast all day which 2 in our group took advantage of. The country store at the front of the restaurant was fun to shop around before and after the meal! I see now how Cracker Barrel has stayed such a highway drive staple for decades."

"I was here really early, so it was like having the restaurant to myself. Food was great, atmosphere is great, and Natalie was great too!"

"This was my first time ever going to a Cracker Barrel and I came here with couple of friends. I ordered a Peach Cobbler for dessert and got some free biscuits if I signup for the member newsletter. I’ve enjoyed both of them. The price is very affordable and staff was very nice. Amanda was very professional and nice the entire time even during 8:00 pm. Overall my experience was very positive!!"

"Stopped in for breakfast before a cold day at Six Flags Great America. Filled up and ready to before the park, is the right way to go! An added bonus, there's all kinds of things in the gift store to tempt you, even record albums!"

"On a good day, the food looks fresh, cooked well, and tastes delicious. The mac and cheese is creamy, dumplings soft, biscuits fluffy, everything is served to satisfaction. The best comfort food. On a bad day, you will receive burned, dry, lumpy mac and cheese that looks and tastes as if it were scraped from the bottom of the barrel. The biscuits are bricks. I posted two photos of how my usual order is served on a good day next to when it's a bad day. The inconsistency at this location is exhausting. You never know if you're going to get food that tastes and looks delicious. It's a surprise. Never know what you're gonna get. The service is okay. The prices are decent when the food is made right. The atmosphere is cute. Very country and cozy. The shop is overpriced but you definitely find a few things to take home."
