Cracker Barrel Apologizes After Customer Spots Noose On The Ceiling

The restaurant Cracker Barrel is issuing an apology after a customer noticed what appears to be a noose hanging from the ceiling at one location. The Cracker Barrel in question is the East Windsor location in Connecticut.

Someone tweeted, “Someone at Cracker Barrel in East Windsor needs to explain why there are nooses on the ceiling.” This led another customer to head to the location and take a video of the ceiling. At first, she didn’t notice it, but you can see it appear around 1:02 in the video below (keep in mind, it may be offensive).

Cracker Barrel apologized and said that it used to hold an iron. It should have been taken down before any customers noticed. While some accepted the apology, other customers said that they would no longer frequent the chain.

We want to make sure our décor is welcoming and representative of the communities we serve.”
