Michigan Can Soon Crack a Cold One at Cracker Barrel
Manager says alcohol is coming soon
For Michigan residents it may seem awkward to sit down in a Cracker Barrel and order a mimosa with an Old Timers Breakfast or Grandma’s Sampler, but at select Cracker Barrels in Florida, Kentucky, and Tennessee, people have been doing it since before the pandemic. Other states like Indiana and Illinois have also joined the party.
Now it’s Michigan’s turn. The Cracker Barrel in Stevensville, Michigan was granted a liquor license by the Lincoln Township Board of Trustees in April 15, 2022. This morning, Jim Intveldt, manager at the Cracker Barrel in Stevensville, told me they are in the process of training their employees to serve alcohol now. He said, “We want to get them trained up and certified. We need a minimum of 60% of our servers to go through the four-hour certification course before we can start serving alcohol. We want to do everything right. We should be able to begin soon.”
Expect to see alcohol on Cracker Barrel menus across Michigan in the future. In late October 2022, the Cracker Barrel in Genoa Township was granted a Class C liquor license for the restaurant located on Conference Center Drive.
