Description: CBRL Cracker Barrel Old Country January 19, 2026
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. (NASDAQ: CBRL) operates a hybrid restaurant-gift-shop concept across the United States, offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner alongside a retail area that sells décor, apparel, food items, and seasonal gifts. The brand emphasizes a “country-style” dining experience and a curated merchandise selection that encourages repeat foot traffic.
Key performance indicators from the most recent quarter (Q2 2024) show comparable-store sales up 4.2% year-over-year, driven largely by a 6.1% increase in average check size and a modest 2.5% rise in traffic volume. The company’s operating margin expanded to 13.8% after a 150-basis-point reduction in labor costs per hour, reflecting tighter staffing amid a tightening U.S. labor market. Macro-level drivers include discretionary consumer spending trends, which remain sensitive to inflation and real disposable-income growth, and fuel-price volatility that can affect travel-related dining demand.
