"The worst dining experience I have had in years occurred at the Meadville Cracker Barrel. We stopped on our way back from Erie since it was conveniently located off the exit. We scheduled our spot in line, but that was the only thing that went smoothly. After being seated, we waited over 10 minutes for a waitress to take our order, which was understandable given the busyness of the restaurant. However, things took a turn for the worse when another couple seated next to us received their drinks and food before us, despite ordering after us. After waiting for an unreasonable amount of time for our drinks and food, we ultimately decided to leave. I have never experienced such poor service and would advise travelers to avoid this place and choose elsewhere to dine."

"I feel so bad even leaving this review, and I want to preface this by saying that it is not the fault of the waitstaff. There seemed to be a shortage of kitchen staff. We wanted to try a new restaurant in the area and took my parents out for their 40th anniversary. We had a reservation for 6:00 pm and we were seated promptly. We had a group of 5 that ordered a few appetizers, two burgers with fries, and 2 entrees. It took about 45 minutes for appetizers (deep fried basic food including wings and onion rings) to come out to the table. After being seated at 6 we waited until about 7:40 for entrees to come out. It came out plate by plate, but had to ask for silverware and waited about 25 minutes to see the waitress/the bartender to get it. By the time we got to eat the food, some was cold, but the food that had just come out was hot. Overall, the food tasted fine nothing spectacular, but certainly not bad. Some parts of the order were a little wrong, no big deal. The waitress apologized multiple times, and on a $135 bill, they did discount it by $22, but truly, it should have been comped to a greater degree. Multiple patrons walked out because it took so long. We were one of 2 or 3 tables that stayed, although, I wish we had not to be honest. It takes the cake as the worst dining experience I have had thus far in my life, but I am glad we were surrounded by the company of family, and I am glad that the staff was kind."

"I hate to be negative, especially since we genuinely support local businesses, but we encountered an issue where we were charged twice for our meal, with the second transaction occurring nearly a week after our visit. I sincerely hope this was an error, but it’s unfortunate that such mistakes can undermine the trust of loyal customers. I recommend being cautious and double-checking your bank statements, or opting to pay with cash."

"Decent food. Overall nice atmosphere. DO NOT go here if you are constrained for time or unless you order ahead. I have never waited less than 30 minutes for my food. Every time I go I enjoy what I get enough but I find myself asking if it was worth the wait in the end. And it's usually a no. Unfortunately there aren't many options in Meadville for non fast food. You're probably better off coming here when you have the day off or just making your own food at home. This isn't a lunch break type restaurant."

"My wife and I decided to make the drive from Erie based on recommendations from our son. Couldn 't have been happier with our experience. Our server, Kelly, was a delight: knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. The food was incredible, from the fried green tomatoes appetizer to my steak (the baseball, a perfectly done medium filet to my wife 's pork chops. The menu was a la carte, and we both ordered baked potatoes (actual restaurant-sized! and the asparagus (seasoned and prepared perfectly . Oh, and the Cajun gumbo! Just a little spicy but not overbearing. Could 've made a full meal of just the gumbo and fried green tomatoes! Sooooo good. The owner made his rounds asking if we were enjoying our meal, something you don 't see very often nowadays, and we assured him everything was perfect. Definitely worth the drive, and we 'll be heading back again soon."
