My wife will often make fun of me for loving Cracker Barrel the way I do. She claims it’s a “old person restaurant,” I claim it’s just really good comfort food. Soon it’ll be easier to find in Colorado.

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 will open in our state in late-2025. 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.
