It’s Sunday morning. I'm hungry. I'm craving...pancakes! Where's the best pancakes in town? Cracker Barrel!

Pulling up you may be wondering what your doing there. Besides circling the parking lot looking for a spot. You may even find a line when you walk up to the door. I can assure you it'll be worth the wait.

While you wait you can take a break in one of the wooden rocking chairs lining the front porch of this Orlando Florida restaurant.

And have a nice conversation while playing a friendly game of checkers.

You may find yourself rocking and enjoying the scenery so much you miss your name over the intercom. Before you get too comfortable remember you're here to eat!

It has a country charm to it. When you first walk through the front door you are greeted with a quaint little store. Filled with antique looking items.

Once you walk into the restaurant itself you are greeted with old timey pictures and memorabilia. Every nook and cranny has something different and unique.

A wood burning fire place will keep you warm and toasty while you wait for your grits.

The tables are set up simply with a napkin and silverware on top. With old time hurricane lamps on every table.

With so many distractions it's easy to forget about being hungry. A large checker board can be found in most of these restaurants.



Plus on each table there's a peg game. I’ve never been good at this game. I usually leave three or four pegs. Which makes me, according to the game, just plain dumb. Oh well it gives me something to work towards.

The game is good for a laugh when you realize most people at your table and the tables around you are also just plain dumb!

Cracker Barrel is a great restaurant in Orlando Florida if you are looking for a good hearty breakfast. I especially like the pancakes. They come served HOT with a little bottle of syrup.

You can choose fruit toppings to put on them. My favorite's the apples. Not the healthiest option but oh so delicious! Warm apples in a caramelized sauce. Topped with whipped cream and syrup. My mouth's watering just thinking about it!

The picture is of a meal for two people! It's enough to feed a small village. The Cracker Barrel menu is full of these belly filling options.

My husband likes to the “scrambler”. It comes with eggs just the way he likes it, sunny side up. Two choices of meat (bacon, turkey sausage, pork sausage) a biscuit and a side of apples.

The apples are again the dessertey type ones I get for my pancakes. He never finishes.

Nothing on the Cracker Barrel breakfast menu is more than $9.00 and the dinner menu features most meals in the $6.00 to $8.00 range. With only a few items over $10.00. One of those items being a rib-eye steak.

In fact the Cracker Barrel menu has many combinations that run from $1.89- $2.99. These are different combos of eggs, meats, hash browns and fried apples.

I don’t normally eat lunch or dinner at here. That’s because I can (and do) eat breakfast any time of the day.

Not to mention that the few times I did try their meals outside of breakfast I was not impressed. I remember the sides to be bland and the meal itself unmemorable.

People do enjoy items off the dinner menu though. The meat loaf and the chicken pot pie get high ratings (neither of which I eat so that would explain alot.)

Unless we're talkin about barbeque :) You must walk back through the store to leave the restaurant. Be sure to check out all the cool things they have on sale.
