The Old-School Restaurant Chain That's A Seasonal Decor Goldmine

If you love seasonal decor that speaks to every holiday, there's one unusual spot you might be skipping on shopping trips that you have to check out. Funnily enough, this place is none other than Cracker Barrel, an old-school restaurant chain where you can grab a bite to eat and some fun items before heading out the door. If you're confused as to how this chain — known for its pancakes that taste so much better than other spots, cheesy hashbrown casserole, and perfectly crispy country-fried steak — also has tons of holiday-themed items, that's understandable. 

At first glance, it seems like an unlikely duo, but step into the front section of the store, where the shop is often located, and you'll understand the vibe and fall for the country charm. Plus, the storefront is perfect for browsing while you're waiting for your meal, or for shopping after you've satiated your appetite! Depending on the season, the chain features a variety of figurines like this adorable pumpkin pie slice candle, kitchen towels, wall decor, and signs. More specifically, for Fall or Halloween, they currently have items like this super adorable light-up Harvest House that looks like it's straight out of your favorite autumn movie. Perhaps you'd like to enhance your front porch with this leaf- and pumpkin-adorned Welcome Post, which instantly adds coziness.

If you're looking for more than home decor, the good news is that there's a little something for everyone at Cracker Barrel. The chain also sells tumblers (perfect for a steaming, creamy pumpkin spice latte) and seasonal-themed apparel, such as casual crewnecks, autumnally colored and printed maxi dresses,and seasonal bibs and clothes for babies. As the holidays come and go, so do different themed items throughout the store. If you're not keen on buying seasonal items, Cracker Barrel also carries tons of other everyday goodies like foods, old-fashioned candies, kids' toys, and home items.

To get your hands on any seasonal or general items, you can head to the nearest Cracker Barrel and shop without buying a meal. Since there are 657 locations across the United States (mainly concentrated in the Midwest to the Southeastern side), you should be able to find one. If you're not near an actual storefront, then consider shopping online, where you can access all of these lovely items from the comfort of your home. In no time, they'll show up at your front door for that seasonal finish your home craves.
