The Cracker Barrel Holiday Menu 2025 brings back Country Fried Turkey, Cinnamon Swirl French Toast, and Turkey Sausage. Also, Cracker Barrel offers a new Breakfast Burger and Heat & Serve feasts for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

As the sign and decor changes (and then re-dos), public outcry dies down, the restaurant chain has unveiled the Cracker Barrel Holiday Menu 2025. The holiday season is officially underway at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, where comfort food and cozy memories take center stage. The brand’s 2025 holiday menu is brimming with returning fan favorites, crave-worthy new creations, and festive Heat & Serve meals designed to make celebrating easy and delicious.
As Cracker Barrel’s Vice President of Menu Strategy & Innovation, Thomas Yun, puts it:
“The holidays are a time to celebrate and make lasting memories with the people that matter most, and nothing brings people together like a scratch-made, comforting meal.”
This year, Cracker Barrel invites guests to focus on what matters most, time with loved ones, while the restaurant handles the rest.
Returning Holiday Favorites on the Cracker Barrel Holiday Menu
Cracker Barrel’s Country Fried Turkey is back, bringing the perfect blend of golden crunch and tender, juicy flavor. Each hand-breaded turkey tenderloin is topped with creamy herbed pan gravy and served with two country sides, a sampling of cranberry relish, and your choice of biscuits or corn muffins.
For those who start the day with something sweet, the Cinnamon Swirl French Toast makes a festive comeback. Made with cinnamon streusel bread dipped in Cracker Barrel’s signature batter, griddled to perfection, and topped with both cinnamon and cream cheese icing, it’s breakfast indulgence at its finest. Rounding out the returning favorites is the Turkey Sausage, the savory side to complete any breakfast plate.
A Brand-New Holiday Star: The Breakfast Burger
Cracker Barrel’s newest creation, the Breakfast Burger, brings southern breakfast comfort to the burger world. This hearty dish features a juicy all-beef patty topped with crispy bacon, a sunny-side-up egg, American cheese, and Cracker Barrel’s famous Hashbrown Casserole, all stacked on a toasted buttermilk bun. It’s served with a side, making it the ultimate “breakfast for dinner” option.

The Broccoli Cheese Casserole also makes its return, packed with broccoli and rice in a creamy cheese sauce and finished with buttery cracker crumbles. Pair your meal with the Merry Berry Tea, a freshly brewed iced tea bursting with the flavor of wild berries.
