Holler & Dash, described as “Cracker Barrel for Millennials,” opens March 13 in South End

February 7, 2018 | By Ted Williams, Charlotte Agenda

Holler & Dash, a fast-casual biscuit restaurant owned by Cracker Barrel Country Store, will open near the new Harris Teeter in South End on Tuesday March 13.

This is the seventh Holler & Dash location.

I respect that fact that Cracker Barrel launched this type of concept to compete with quick-service chains like Panera Bread and Chipotle. Gutsy. It also diversifies the company without brand confusion.

“With its biscuit-inspired menu that pays tribute to the South in an innovative and modern way, Holler & Dash was created to extend our reach into urban [areas] and attract new audiences,” Cracker Barrel CEO Sandy Cochran said on a recent earnings call.

Chicken. Set. Go. ($9) – Fried chicken, pimento cheese, jalapeno, sorghum.

Hollerback Club Biscuit ($9) – sliced bacon, sliced fried green tomatoes, guacamole with hollerback sauce.

It’s a quick serve restaurant, so you’ll order at the counter and then sit at your table.

In terms of interior design, expect that industrial, millennial vibe: exposed brick, industrial lighting and a mix of booths and high tops.

It’s in the same shopping center as fancy smoothie spot Nékter and the future home of Sea Level sister concept, The Waterman.

Signature biscuits run around $9. Classic biscuits like a Bacon Egg and Cheese are around $5. Side items like their tot bowl, fresh fruit, grits and beignets range from $3-$5.

Also expect dishes like their Hey Eddy! Omelette ($7.50) – open-faced omelette with goat cheese, asparagus, heirloom tomatoes with basil, several fancy toast options and a few sandwich and salad options.

The most popular signature biscuits are the Kickback Chicken, Pork Rambler and the Chicken.Set.Go.

Signature biscuits:

Here’s a look at a few other dishes:

Grit Bowl ($7) – grits cooked with cheddar cheese, bacon, fried egg, hot sauce and green onions. 

Tot Bowl ($5) – Bacon, cheddar, green onion and Hollerback Sauce

Beignets ($5) – New Orleans-style donuts with coffee dipping sauce

Strawberry & Dash ($8.50) – strawberries, creole cream and cheese.

Will there be Avocado Toast at this “Cracker Barrel for Millennials” restaurant? Duh. It’ll run you $6.50 – Avocado Smash, Watermelon Radish and Lemon Dijon on wheat toast.
