Reader Deborah asks:

Update on Cracker Barrel opening Snellville, GA???

Gwinnett County residents have been anxiously awaiting their new Cracker Barrel since it broke ground in September. Snellvillians will soon be able to snap up their very own Sunrise Sampler or meatloaf dinner, but when?

The simple answer is: March...probably.

The full answer is that the old-timey restaurant chain won’t give a solid opening date this far in advance, but the target opening month is March, according to spokesperson Samantha Toth.

But, fret not, Cracker Barrel lovers. March is but a few weeks away. You will soon be playing that peg pyramid game and munching on biscuits with abandon.
