With all of the restaurant closures in Denver lately, it’s refreshing to report a restaurant OPENING!

Did you know there are currently only four Cracker Barrel restaurants in all of Colorado? The Denver-area only has one, in Northglenn. The others are in Loveland, Pueblo, and Colorado Springs.

A new Cracker Barrel is getting close to opening, and will be the first in Denver-proper. The new location will be in Denver’s Central Park neighborhood off East 40th Avenue. That location is just south of I-70 off of the Central Park Boulevard exit.

The company said the new store and restaurant would be its first new Colorado location since 1997, that’s 28 years!!

An exact opening date has not yet been announced, but this Cracker Barrel is currently hiring for 150 open positions, including cooks, servers, dishwashers, night maintenance, and guest services and sales (restaurant hosts who double as store cashiers).
