Cracker Barrel serves old fashioned comfort food and sells old fashioned candy and toys in its attached gift shop. Both are a treat. They are well known for their chicken and dumplings - you can order them as an entree or as one of the two or three vegetables you get with your entree. I always order as an entree because they are so good. Green beans are also good - and on Thursdays sweet potato casserole is one of the many vegetable choices. The gift shops sells pretty much every old time candy you can think of - this time I bought Clove gum and Mallomars. We also found old fashioned toys like balloon-powered trains. All in all, it's fun to eat and shop there. My only complaint is that they only serve the sweet potato casserole once a week!
