Jackson Jambalaya

The water isn't really drinkable, therefore the city has them over a barrel.

No more chicken licking good chicken.

Is there a conference in Miami “Watching your Retail Sales Tax Base Erode?”

You’d think their customer base is dying off. Better move to the suburbs

@4:15 you mean the city has the crackers who own it over a barrel.

What were the buzz words in the 1970's advert
about the old Triumph TR7 "sports car" ?

Answear: ... (The Shape of Things to Come)

This is bullshit!! Water has nothing to do with it!! Why are all the restaurants still operating in Eastover??? It is closed due to no customers. Cracker Barrell cannot survive on 10 for breakfast and 15 for lunch then a fluctuating number for dinner!!! I pass it almost daily at different times and never see more than 10-12 cars in the parking lot.

There's a lawyer's commercial that starts with, "Let's Face Facts Folks".

Fact is, despite the wishes and actions of the business, the place years ago turned into a Fred Sanford, Chicago-Elite, bunch of non-tipping Sunday mornin' locals who craved sugar and salt and who pocketed salt shakers, silverware and jelly packets.

This chain has survived for years on the traveling public of all types, sexes, races and age groups. But, that wasn't the case in Jacktown.

Cracker Barrel sucks!

6:01 - check a map next time. That CB is nowhere near Eastover.

Personally, I've never understood the allure of this chain.
(But to each their own).

And I doubt that Jackson location will ever reopen.

Other than their Pearl site,
I think the next one with safe water is in Brookhaven.

NE Jackson especially Eastover ole miss crowd is way too good to eat Cracker Barrel. Actually Cracker Barrel stays busy
Mostly out of state tags in parking lot

I zoomed the 1st picture.
Looks like all the rocking chairs have been stolen!

Good thing I know how to make biscuits, butter fried apples, and that chopped tater casserole. My cornbread is actually better than their's.

It will be burglarized in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

When a family restaurant starts trying to sell alcohol… it won’t be long.

Hitting "like" button for 6:15. Especially the non-tipping part. Char will be the next to go.

Did the Starbucks in maywood open back up? It was also “closed” due to water days after the water was running.

8:43, Char is going nowhere. If you tip well, you can always get a seat. Know your server. I walk in at 12:15, tons of people waiting for a table, I have one waiting for me.

Cracker Barrel is Waffle-House-grade food at Char prices.

Only here can a moron use a story about Cracker Barrel to slam Ole Miss. get a life!

I can only think of one time I've ever eaten at Cracker Barrel and that was years ago at a soccer tournament in another town. So, I can't really comment on the quality of their food (but I've heard their chicken and dumplings were good). I don't know if they had any staff left before closing but hopefully they were offered a position at the other one (Pearl, I think ??). If what others are saying about the clientele there, yeah - it's not the water that is/was the problem. They were probably looking for a reason to close. Losing cost center off the charts for Cracker Barrel corporate.

6:01, thanks professor!!

And Chowe Antar is still on GMA saying “first and foremost, thank you for lifting up this issue.” He makes me want to vomit.

I think they have already thought ahead to what will happen when Jackson takes the water plant back. Everyone knows it is coming. Everyone knows what will happen. They are just the first to accept it and look somewhere else.

I don’t understand all of the snarky remarks about the Cracker Barrel food. I’m not a regular but have never gotten anything that wasn’t good at a very reasonable price. If you want oxtail soup and caviar don’t go there.

I really enjoy breakfast at Cracker Barrel sometimes ( and I’m sad for their staff). I also like Waffle House sometimes, and I sometimes like Breakfast at Brennan’s. Some of you folks don’t seem to like much. You could probably find fault with Mothers milk.Your life must be real sad. I do appreciate some of the humor on JJ. “Crackers over a barrel”.

Turns out turbidity did not help chicken and dumplings. Although, it does add complexity to dirty rice and Mississippi mud cakes.

Future pawn shop, strip club, check cashing payday lender, adult novelty store, or late night club of ill repute…pick one.

8:09 bragging about his “clout” at Char.

Hahahaha. That’s rich.

@11:20 PM - @8:09 AM misspoke - he meant to pen Burger King, not Char.

I don't think this location is opening back up. Drove by yesterday on my way back from Clarkco and it's still got the sign on the door.
