Cracker Barrel Old Country Store at 1736 S Convention Center Dr sits just off I-15 in St. George’s south end, near the Dixie Center. It combines a Southern-style restaurant with a country gift shop. Road-trippers heading between Las Vegas and Zion National Park, along with local families, stop here for all-day breakfast, buttermilk biscuits and an unhurried sit-down meal.
Rocking chairs line the front porch, and the entrance leads through a retail store stocked with old-fashioned candy, seasonal décor, toys and kitchen goods. Inside the dining room, vintage tools, signs and photographs cover the walls, and a stone fireplace anchors the space. Each table has the chain’s wooden peg game. Pancakes are the big draw, including Momma’s Pancake Breakfast. Other popular plates include Uncle Herschel’s Favorite, chicken n’ dumplins, meatloaf, Sunday Homestyle Chicken and the hashbrown casserole. Most entrées come with a choice of country sides plus biscuits or cornbread muffins. The location carries a 4.3-star average rating, and reviewers often mention generous portions and steady service.
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
Weekend mornings and Sunday after church bring the longest waits, especially during St. George’s busy season from March through May and over holiday weekends. For shorter waits, arrive before 8 a.m. or come mid-afternoon on a weekday. The restaurant does not take reservations, but you can join the waitlist through the Cracker Barrel app or website. You can also order online for curbside pickup. Hours typically run from early morning through evening, so confirm current hours before you go. Allow time to browse the store after your meal. The Dixie Center and Sand Hollow Aquatic Center are both close by.
