Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

About a week ago, my friend Mitch and I went to the Gallup, New Mexico Cracker Barrel restaurant for lunch.

If you happen to like homestyle cooking and a varied menu, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store is the place to go.

From Wikipedia:

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. is an American chain of combined restaurant and gift stores with a Southern country theme. The company was founded by Dan Evins in 1969; its first store was in Lebanon, Tennessee.

Besides meals, Cracker Barrels have gift stores that are loaded with all kinds of things. They have outdoor furniture & accessories, women's apparel, antiques, quilts, bedding, home decor, candy, CDs, DVDs and other goods.

I picked up this Elvis Presley gospel album (my previous blog with news from Graceland stated that a new gospel album is to be released this summer). It is exclusive to Cracker Barrel. Their CDs are primarily by country & western artists.

Cracker Barrels have ample parking, including parking for RVs.
