Cracker Barrel will ditch new ‘woke’ logo after backlash from Trump and others

The old timer — aka “Uncle Herschel” — will return, along with his barrel: “We said we would listen, and we have."

After suffering more than a week of online backlash to its new streamlined logo design — and a 9% drop in its stock price — the Cracker Barrel restaurant chain agreed to use its old logo.

"We said we would listen, and we have," the company announced in a statement. “Our new logo is going away and our ‘Old Timer’ will remain."

The move came just hours after President Trump weighed in on the controversy, urging the company to “go back to the old logo” and “admit a mistake based on customer response (the ultimate Poll).”

Citing his own experience in business and politics, Trump framed the flap as a great opportunity to “manage the company better than ever before.“

Previously, the Southern-flavored chain had said only that it “could’ve done a better job sharing who we are and who we’ll always be," adding that “the last few days have shown us … how deeply people care about Cracker Barrel.”

It was an optimistic take on what had been by any measure a fraught period for the retro roadside restaurant.

The trouble started last week when CEO Julie Felss Masino and her team unveiled the new logo — a simple gold shield with the restaurant’s name in a brown, more contemporary font — as part of a rebranding campaign that also saw them flying social media influencers to Manhattan to visit a slick pop-up location and attend a country music concert.

Felss, a veteran of Starbucks and Taco Bell, was recruited to shake up the chain, which had been receiving middling marks on food, value, experience and convenience — and attracting 16% less traffic last year than in 2019.

But her recent move backfired spectacularly, sparking a culture war firestorm that saw some fans accusing Cracker Barrel of abandoning its Americana roots in favor of a sanitized — even “woke” — new look.

Much of the meltdown focused on Felss's decision to update the Tennessee chain’s longstanding logo: ​its rustic illustration of an actual barrel and — even more galling, according to detractors — the seated man in overalls who had been casually draping his arm over said barrel ever since the design was first sketched by a Nashville artist in 1977.

The sweeping $700 million makeover also included a revamped menu and “decluttered” dining rooms, with fewer knickknacks on the walls.
