FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Do I need to make a purchase to get the free birthday dessert? No - the birthday dessert is completely free with no purchase required.

What dessert do I get? The free birthday dessert is typically a seasonal option like apple cobbler or another dessert from the menu. Check the app to see your specific birthday reward.

When does the birthday reward appear in my account? The reward is loaded on the first day of your birthday month - so you have your entire birth month plus extra time (45 days total) to use it.

Can I redeem it online or only in-store? The birthday reward can be redeemed in-store at a Cracker Barrel restaurant or applied via the app for online orders.

What if I sign up right before my birthday? Sign up at least 30 days before your birthday month begins. If you sign up very close to your birthday, you may miss the reward for the first year.

Does the birthday reward renew every year? Yes - you'll receive a free birthday dessert each year as long as your Cracker Barrel Rewards account is active with your birthday on file.
