Host
They say you are the company you keep—and at Cracker Barrel, we take that seriously. Whether you’re greeting guests, rolling out biscuits, or keeping things humming behind the scenes, you make the moments that matter, both big and small. Here, the work means more because we take pride in doing it together.
About the role
Every great guest experience starts with a warm welcome. As a Host, you’ll invite guests in and make them feel right at home. You’ll keep the dining room flowing by managing the waitlist, updating guests with a smile, and making sure each table is ready for the next group to gather around.
No restaurant experience? No worries. We’ll teach you everything you need to know.
