ITEM 1. BUSINESS

      Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. (the "Company" or "Cracker
Barrel") was incorporated in October 1969 under the laws of the State of
Tennessee.  The Company owns and operates 191 full service "country store"
restaurants which are located in the southeast, midwest, mid- atlantic and
southwest United States along interstate highways, including 5 stores located
at "tourist destinations".  These family restaurants serve breakfast, lunch and
dinner between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.  and feature home style
country cooking prepared on the premises from the Company's own recipes using
quality ingredients and emphasizing authenticity.  Menu items are moderately
priced and include country ham, chicken, fish, barbecue pork ribs, roast beef,
beans, turnip greens, vegetable plates, sandwiches, pancakes, eggs, bacon,
sausage and grits.  The restaurants do not serve alcoholic beverages.  The
stores are constructed in a rustic, country store design and feature a separate
gift shop area offering a wide variety of items specializing in hand-blown
glassware, cast iron cookware, toys and wood crafts as well as various old
fashioned candies, jellies and other foods.  The Company considers its store
operations to constitute an integrated, single line of business.

Operations

      Store Format:  The format of each of Cracker Barrel's stores consists of
a rustic, country store style building.  All stores are free standing buildings
with adequate parking facilities and standard landscaping.  Store interiors are
subdivided into a dining area consisting of approximately 25% of the total
interior store space, a gift shop area consisting of approximately 22% of such
space, with the balance primarily consisting of kitchen and storage areas.  All
stores have wood-burning fireplaces and are decorated with antique-style
furnishings and other authentic items of the past similar to those used and
sold in original old country stores.  The kitchen areas contain modern food
preparation and storage equipment allowing for extensive flexibility in menu
variation and development.

      Products:  Cracker Barrel's restaurants offer rural Southern cooking
featuring the Company's own recipes.  In keeping with the Company's emphasis on
authenticity and quality, Cracker Barrel's restaurants prepare menu selections
on the premises.  The Company's restaurants offer breakfast, lunch and dinner
from a moderately-priced menu.  Most items may be ordered at any time
throughout the day.  Breakfast items include juices, eggs, pancakes, bacon,
country ham, sausage, grits, and a variety of biscuit specialties, with prices
for a breakfast meal ranging from $1.29 to $6.99.  Lunch and dinner items
include country ham, catfish, steak, barbecue pork ribs, chicken, vegetable
plates, baked potatoes, salads, sandwiches, homemade soups and specialty items
such as beef stew with muffins.  Lunches and dinners range in price from $2.99
to $10.95.  The Company from time to time increases its prices and increased
its menu prices approximately 3% in February 1994.

      The gift shops, which are decorated with antique signs, primitive tools
and other memorabilia in a turn-of-the-century atmosphere, offer a wide variety
of items consisting primarily of hand-blown glassware, cast iron cookware,
old-fashioned crockery, handcrafted figurines, classic children's toys and
various other gift items, as well as various candies, preserves, smoked
sausage, syrups and other foodstuffs.  Many of the candy items, smoked bacon,
jellies and jams along with other high quality products are sold under the
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store brand name.

      Product Merchandising:  Cracker Barrel maintains a quality control
department which also develops new and improved menu items in response to
shifts in customer preferences and changes in supply of ingredients used in the
Company's menu items.  Company merchandising specialists are involved on a
continuing basis in selecting and positioning of merchandise in the gift shop
areas.  Management believes that the Company has adequate flexibility to meet
future shifts in consumer preference on a timely basis.

      Store Management:  Store management typically consists of a general
manager, four associate managers and a gift shop manager who are responsible
for approximately 93 employees on two shifts.  The relative complexity of
operating a Cracker Barrel Old Country Store requires an effective management
team at the individual store level.  As a motivation to store managers to
improve sales and operational efficiency, Cracker Barrel has a bonus plan
designed to provide store management with an opportunity to share in the
pre-tax profits of their store.  To assure that individual stores are operated
at a high level of quality, the Company emphasizes the selection and training
of store managers and has a level of District Management to assist individual
store managers.

      The store management recruiting and training program begins with an
evaluation and screening program.  In addition to multiple interviews and
background and experience verification, the Company conducts testing which it
believes is important in selecting those applicants best suited to manage store
operations.  Those candidates who successfully pass this screening process are
then required to complete a 10-week training program conducted at the Company's
Lebanon, Tennessee facility.  This program allows new managers the opportunity
to become familiar with the Company's operations, management objectives,
controls and evaluation criteria before assuming management responsibility.

      Purchasing and Distribution:  Cracker Barrel negotiates directly with
food vendors as to price and other material terms of most food purchases.  The
Company purchases the majority of its food products and restaurant supplies on
a cost-plus basis through a distributor in Lebanon, Tennessee.  The distributor
is responsible for placing food orders and warehousing and delivering food
products to the Company's stores.  Certain perishable food items are purchased
locally by the Company's stores.

      The majority of gift shop items are purchased directly by Cracker Barrel,
warehoused at its Lebanon warehouse and shipped to the stores.

      The single food category accounting for the largest share (approximately
21%) of the Company's food purchasing expense is pork.  The single food item
within the pork category accounting for the largest share (approximately 5%) of
the Company's food purchasing expense is country ham.  The Company presently
purchases its pork food items through twelve vendors and its country ham
through three vendors.  Should any pork items from these vendors become
unavailable for any reason, management is of the opinion that these food items
could be obtained in sufficient quantities from other sources at competitive
prices.

      Quality, Cost and Inventory Controls:  Costs are monitored by management
to determine if any material variances in food cost or operating expenses have
occurred.  The Company's computer system is used to analyze store operating
information by providing management reports for continual monitoring of sales
mix and detailed operational cost data.  This system is also used in the
development of budget analyses and planning.

      Marketing:  New store locations generally are not advertised in the media
until several weeks after they have been opened in order to give the staff time
to adjust to local customer habits and traffic volume.  To effectively reach
consumers in the primary trade area for each Cracker Barrel store and also
interstate travelers and tourists, outdoor advertising is the primary
advertising media utilized, accounting for approximately 54% of advertising
expenditures.  Advertising costs are approximately 2% of annual sales.

      Seasonal Aspects:  The profits of the Company historically have been
lower in the Company's second fiscal quarter than its first and third, while
profits of the Company historically have been highest in the Company's fourth
fiscal quarter.  Management attributes these variations primarily to the
decrease in interstate tourist traffic during the winter months and the
increase in interstate tourist traffic during the summer months.

      Working Capital:  Since substantially all sales in the restaurant
industry are for cash, the Company, like most other restaurant companies, is
able and may from time to time operate with a negative working capital.
Inventories are generally financed from normal trade credit aided by rapid
turnover of the restaurant inventory.

Expansion

      The Company's primary customer is the interstate traveler.  Therefore,
the Company's major emphasis in the opening of new stores will continue to be
locating stores at interstate highway locations.  In addition, specific major
tourist destinations will be targeted as potential locations for new units.

      The Company opened thirty new stores in fiscal 1994.  Five of the stores
are located on Interstate 35 in Round Rock, Texas, Norman, Oklahoma, Liberty,
Missouri, Lakeville, Minnesota, and Lacy Lakeview, Texas; three are on
Interstate 75 in Flint, Michigan, Gainesville, Florida, and Middletown, Ohio;
three are located on Interstate 80 in Austintown, Ohio, Davenport, Iowa, and
Tinley Park, Illinois; two are located on Interstate 10 in Baytown, Texas and
Lafayette, Louisiana; two are on Interstate 40 in Knoxville, Tennessee and
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma;  there is one store each on Interstate 4 in Sanford,
Florida, U.S. Highway 17 in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Interstate 20
in Augusta, Georgia, U.S. Highway 41 in Germantown, Wisconsin, Interstate 44 in
Joplin, Missouri, Interstate 55 in Horn Lake, Mississippi, Interstate 64 in
Newport News, Virginia, Interstate 70 in Columbus, Ohio, Interstate 77 in
Akron, Ohio, Interstate 81 in Winchester, Virginia, Interstate 94 in Battle
Creek, Michigan, Interstate 96 in Walker, Michigan, Interstate 470 in Topeka,
Kansas, Interstate 635 in Mesquite, Texas and Interstate 694 in Brooklyn
Center, Minnesota.

      The Company plans to open thirty-six new stores by the end of fiscal
1995.  Nine of the stores are already open; there is one each on Interstate 70
in Independence, Missouri, Interstate 35 in Lewisville, Texas, Interstate 45 in
League City, Texas, Interstate 83 in York, Pennsyvania, Interstate 24 in
Chattanooga, Tennessee, Interstate 4 in Lakeland, Florida, Interstate 494 in
Woodbury, Minnesota, Interstate 88 in Napierville, Illinois and Interstate 10
in Pensacola, Florida.

      Prior to committing to a new location, the Company performs extensive
reviews of various available sites, gathering approximate cost, demographic and
traffic data.  The Company utilizes in-house engineers to consult on
architectural plans, to develop engineering plans and to oversee new
construction.  The Company is currently engaged in the process of seeking and
selecting new sites, negotiating purchase or lease terms and developing chosen
sites.





                                      5

      It is the Company's preference to own its restaurants.  The Company
presently owns 174 of its 191 stores.  Currently, average cost for a new store
is approximately $600,000 for land and $1,800,000 for site work, building and
equipment.  The current store size is approximately 9,700 square feet with 176
seats in the restaurant.

Employees

      As of July 29, 1994, Cracker Barrel employed 21,796 people, of whom 127
were in advisory and supervisory capacities, 1,121 were in store management
positions and 12 were officers of the Company.  Most of the restaurant
personnel are employed on a full-time basis.  The Company has an incentive plan
for its hourly employees which is intended to lower turnover and to increase
productivity by providing a defined career path through testing and ranking of
employees.  The Company's employees are not represented by any union, and
management considers its employee relations to be good.

Competition

      The restaurant business is highly competitive and is often affected by
changes in the taste and eating habits of the public, local and national
economic conditions affecting spending habits, and population and traffic
patterns.  The principal basis of competition in the industry is the quality
and price of the food products offered.  Site selection, quality and speed of
service, advertising and the attractiveness of facilities are also important.

      There are a large number of restaurants catering to the public, including
several franchised operations in the family segment of the restaurant industry,
which are substantially larger and have greater financial and marketing
resources than those of the Company and which compete directly and indirectly
in all areas in which the Company operates.

Trademarks

      The Company owns certain registered copyrights, patents and trademarks
relating to the name "Cracker Barrel Old Country Store," its logo, menu, design
of building, and other aspects of its operations.  The Company believes that
the use of this name has some value in maintaining the atmosphere and public
acceptance of its mode of operations.

Research and Development

      While research and development are important to the Company, these
expenditures have not been material.

Compliance With Environmental Protection Requirements

      Compliance with federal, state and local provisions which have been
enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials into the environment
should have no material effect upon capital expenditures, earnings, or the
competitive position of the Company.

     In September 1983 the Board of Directors of the Company initiated a policy
of declaring dividends on a quarterly basis.  Prior to such date the Board
followed a policy of declaring annual dividends during the first fiscal
quarter.  Quarterly dividends of $.00417 per share were paid for the first two
quarters of fiscal 1993.  Dividends of $.00500 per share were paid for the last
two quarters of fiscal 1993 and all four quarters of fiscal 1994.  The Company
forsees paying comparable cash dividends per share in the future.

     The stock prices and dividends per share have been adjusted to reflect the
three-for-two stock split in the form of 50% stock dividends distributed to
stockholders on March 19, 1993.

     The covenants relating to the $30,000,000 of 9.53% Senior Notes restrict
the payment of cash dividends and the purchase of treasury stock.  Retained
earnings not restricted under the covenants were approximately $260,000,000 at
July 29, 1994.
