The new logo jettisons an illustration of a mostly silhouetted man in overalls leaning on the eponymous barrel.

Following the logo reveal and backlash, Cracker Barrel stock dropped 7.2% on August 21, 2025. This amounted to a $94 million loss in market value before partially rebounding later that day. Analysts cautioned that both the controversy and the high $700 million rebrand cost contributed to investor uncertainty, not just political outrage.

Change is never easy, and it has definitely come at a cost for restaurant and gift store chain Cracker Barrel. On Aug. 20, the company unveiled the redesign of its iconic logo, and you wont believe why the MAGA faithful are losing their collective minds over it.
