This year's holiday lineup gives guests more ways to get their season's worth through festive flavors, family traditions and stress-free hosting

LEBANON, Tenn., Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The best parts of the holidays don't have to wait for the big day. Beginning today, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® is giving guests more reasons to gather, celebrate and enjoy the flavors of the season with new Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes, the new Country Fried Turkey Sandwich and other festive favorites, plus convenient Thanksgiving Heat & Serve meals for celebrating at home.

Cinnamon Swirl Pancake Breakfast

As part of its "Get Your Season's Worth" holiday campaign, Cracker Barrel is inviting guests to make more of all the moments that bring people together, not just the biggest days on the calendar. That could be a festive breakfast on an ordinary morning, a comforting family dinner on a busy weeknight or a Thanksgiving feast without all the cooking. All season long, Cracker Barrel is helping guests turn more everyday moments into holiday memories through craveable food and the country hospitality that makes gathering feel special.

"Some of the best holiday memories happen when you're not planning on making them," said Sarah Moore, Chief Marketing Officer at Cracker Barrel. "A breakfast that turns into a tradition. A family dinner where everyone can finally get together. A holiday meal where you get to enjoy the company instead of spending the day in the kitchen. That's what 'Get Your Season's Worth' is all about. We're bringing the food, traditions and country hospitality that make those moments special to the table all season long."

Rich DIY Hot Chocolate: The returning favorite is topped with whipped cream and chocolate drizzle and served with a variety of toppings guests can mix and match to make it their own.
