    Food was fresh and delicious, drinks stayed full, staff was sweet and great! Best Cracker Barrel I've been to in a while!

    Super friendly staff and quick service, the store looks pretty fun too. Chicken tenders are really good, juicey and crispy! French toast stuffed with cheese cake was skippable. Kids meal comes with fries and those are good too, great deal $6.99 :)

    Doug Adams with fire rescue/ life pak. We train with life flight once a month in Kissimmee, we often dine inn at this location and the service and food are extremely good. We are from Georgia and love the southern food as well as the atmosphere. But I wanted to give a special thanks to Jereil the manager for stepping up when we were mistakenly given the wrong order. I highly recommend this restaurant for it great food , service, and price.

    We were a big group but everything went smoothly. We frequent Cracker Barrel’s and this was definitely one of the better experiences. Food was great-especially the cheesecake pancakes. Store and restaurant was clean. Holly was wonderful and even handed our toddler a little sticker to keep her entertained. Would recommend!

    The store in Orlando on highway 192 is so different than the store in Tallahassee where we live. This store is so nice and well put together lots of staff to work and treat you well. They could teach the people in Tallahassee so much about how a store should be run !!!

    Always great food and service...not a fan of the newer look, but, I go to eat, not get entertained...

    Ordered the biscuits and gravy that had zero seasoning in it.

    2026 Fabulous southern chicken lunch, served by the amazing Brandon & Amber. Busy Sunday session and they really looked after us. Went last year too but forgot to leave a review, which was also excellent. 2024 What a difference today was. Super service, great food and worlds away from last years visit. Loved the hash with bacon and my better half loved the old timer breakfast. Fresh steaming coffee and a lovely, attentive server. 2023 Poor, slow, breakfast service. The pancakes were very stodgy and greasy, rest OK but not worth waiting for over 40 mins with no refills.

    We stopped by Cracker Barrel in Kissimmee for breakfast, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was delicious, just as we’ve come to expect over the years. The pancakes were fluffy and flavorful, the bacon was cooked perfectly, and the eggs were cooked just like we requested. Of course, the coffee was hot and kept coming! What really stood out was the friendly and attentive service. Our server made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us throughout our meal without being intrusive. After breakfast, we spent some time browsing the country store, which is always part of the fun. We found a few unique items to take home and enjoyed looking through the seasonal displays and gifts. The store was well-stocked, clean, and full of charming treasures. If you’re looking for a dependable breakfast spot with great food, friendly service, and a fun shopping experience all in one place, Cracker Barrel is always a great choice. We’ll definitely be back!

    If I’m being honest, This review is for ROBERT! Truly the best waiter we’ve ever had. So attentive & personable! He literally went to find my son and I in the store because the food was delivered to our table (and my husband was at it). Wanted to make sure the pregnant lady had her food!! Haha! He refilled drinks at halfway, asked us several times how we were doing and such a friendly guy! Everyone here has been so so friendly and service has been quick! Food warm & cooked well.(Second time at this location as we live 2 hours away but we’re at Westgate!) More people should be like Robert!
