Cracker Barrel offers a separate gluten-free menu with breakfast, lunch, and dinner items. Standouts include the Grilled Chicken Tenders (not breaded), Loaded Baked Potato , Country Vegetable Plate , and grilled fish with seasonal veggies. They also have gluten-friendly pancakes and waffles made with a dedicated mix.

However, the kitchen is small and not certified gluten-free. Cross-contamination is possible because they cook everything on shared surfaces and use shared fryers (so fries and fried items are not safe, even if listed as “gluten-friendly”). Many staff members are unfamiliar with gluten-free protocols.

Here’s a concise review of the gluten-free options at Cracker Barrel, suitable for sharing on sites like Google Maps, Yelp, or TripAdvisor:

Decent gluten-free choices, but cross-contamination is a risk Rating: ⭐⭐½ (2.5/5)
