ANNAPOLIS, Md. — It's been years in the making, but Cracker Barrel is officially set to open their first Annapolis restaurant later this year.
The new location is currently under construction at 175 Jennifer Road, where the old Fuddruckers once stood before being demolished in November 2022.
Cracker Barrell took over the space in March of 2021, yet a prolonged planning and zoning process has stood in the way.
"The restaurant will be approximately 10,500 sq ft.," the company said in a statement to WMAR-2 News. "We look forward to bringing our authentic restaurant and retail experience and country hospitality to guests in the area!"
While there is no specific opening date, Cracker Barrel expects sometime this winter.
It marks the chain's tenth Maryland location. Currently the closest Cracker Barrel to Annapolis is in Stevensville.
