Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Southern country restaurant in Tangipahoa Parish, United States.
Cracker Barrel is a restaurant in Tangipahoa Parish that serves traditional Southern cuisine in a wooden building with rocking chairs on the front porch and country-style interior design. The establishment pairs dining with an attached retail store offering a wide range of regional goods and household items.

The restaurant serves breakfast items throughout the day and offers a children's menu with adjusted portions of traditional dishes. The combination of dining and shopping means visitors should allow time to browse and eat comfortably.
Each location features its own collection of antiques and decorative objects specifically selected for that region. A dedicated team regularly verifies these items to ensure every location maintains its own visual character.
