How we checked Cracker Barrel's hours
Cracker Barrel's FY2026 annual report (10-K, filed Sept 25, 2026) says its restaurants serve breakfast, lunch and dinner daily and that breakfast items can be ordered at any time throughout the day. It defines the day-parts as breakfast until 11 AM, lunch from 11 AM to 4 PM and dinner from 4 PM to close, and reports that breakfast, lunch and dinner made up 29%, 40% and 31% of 2026 restaurant sales. The 10-K does not state opening or closing times. The only store hours we could read are in the company's Feb 2, 2026 release for the new Annapolis, MD store at 175 Jane Road. Cracker Barrel's own store pages return an access-denied (403) error to automated requests, so other stores' hours are not verified. Check the store page or the app for your location.
