| Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | 1. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the "Company") are principally engaged in the operation and development in the United States of the Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® ("Cracker Barrel") concept. The condensed consolidated balance sheets at May 3, 2013 and August 3, 2012 and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the quarters and/or nine-month periods ended May 3, 2013 and April 27, 2012, have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring items) necessary for a fair presentation of such condensed consolidated financial statements have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 3, 2012 (the "2012 Form 10-K"). The accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as described in the 2012 Form 10-K. References to a year in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are to the Company's fiscal year unless otherwise noted. Recent Accounting Pronouncement Adopted Presentation of Comprehensive Income In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued amended accounting guidance which requires companies to present total comprehensive income and its components and the components of net income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two consecutive statements reporting net income and comprehensive income. This requirement eliminates the option to present components of comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders' equity. This guidance affects only the presentation of comprehensive income and does not change the components of comprehensive income. The Company adopted this accounting guidance on a retrospective basis in the first quarter of 2013 by presenting separate but consecutive statements. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities In December 2011, the FASB issued accounting guidance which requires companies to disclose information about the nature of their rights of setoff and related arrangements associated with their financial instruments and derivative instruments to enable users of financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on their financial position. Each company will be required to provide both net and gross information in the notes to its financial statements for relevant assets and liabilities that are eligible for offset. In January 2013, the FASB issued additional accounting guidance which limits these disclosures to derivatives, repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions to the extent that they are offset in the financial statements or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. These disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013 on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect that the adoption of these disclosure requirements in the first quarter of 2014 will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income In February 2013, the FASB issued accounting guidance which requires companies to provide information regarding the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. A company will be required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required by GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, a company is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail regarding those amounts. This accounting guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012 on a prospective basis. Since the guidance only affects presentation and disclosure of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income, the adoption of this guidance in the first quarter of 2014 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. |

The Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at August 3, 2012 were as follows:
*Consists of money market fund investments. **Represents plan assets invested in mutual funds established under a Rabbi Trust for the Company's non-qualified savings plan and is included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as other assets. The Company's money market fund investments and deferred compensation plan assets are measured at fair value using quoted market prices. The fair value of the Company's interest rate swap liabilities is determined based on the present value of expected future cash flows. Since the values of the Company's interest rate swaps are based on the LIBOR forward curve, which is observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the swaps, it is considered a Level 2 input. Non-performance risk is reflected in determining the fair value of the interest rate swaps by using the Company's credit spread less the risk-free interest rate, both of which are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the terms of the swaps. Thus, the adjustment for non-performance risk is also considered a Level 2 input. The fair values of the Company's accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts because of their short duration. The fair value of the Company's variable rate debt, based on quoted market prices, which are considered Level 1 inputs, approximates its carrying amount at May 3, 2013 and August 3, 2012. |

| Debt [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Debt | 4. Debt Long-term debt consisted of the following at:
The Company's $750,000 credit facility (the "Credit Facility") consists of a term loan and a $500,000 revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). At May 3, 2013, the Company had $212,500 of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $28,171 of standby letters of credit, which reduce the Company's availability under the Revolving Credit Facility (see Note 11). At May 3, 2013, the Company had $259,329 in borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. In accordance with the Credit Facility, outstanding borrowings bear interest, at the Company's election, either at LIBOR or prime plus a percentage point spread based on certain specified financial ratios under the Credit Facility. As of May 3, 2013, the Company's outstanding borrowings were swapped at a weighted average interest rate of 3.98% (see Note 5 for information on the Company's interest rate swaps). The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants, which include maintenance of a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio. At May 3, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. The Credit Facility also imposes restrictions on the amount of dividends the Company is permitted to pay. Prior to the June 3, 2013 amendment described below, if there was no default existing and the total of the Company's availability under the Revolving Credit Facility plus the Company's cash and cash equivalents on hand was at least $100,000 (the "liquidity requirements"), the Company could declare and pay cash dividends on shares of its common stock if the aggregate amount of dividends paid in any fiscal year was less than 20% of Consolidated EBITDA from continuing operations (as defined in the Credit Facility) (the "20% limitation") during the immediately preceding fiscal year. In any event, as long as the liquidity requirements were met, dividends could be declared and paid in any fiscal year up to the amount of dividends permitted and paid in the preceding fiscal year without regard to the 20% limitation. Effective June 3, 2013, the Company amended the Credit Facility to provide more flexibility with regard to the dividends the Company is permitted to pay. Under the amended Credit Facility, if there is no default existing and the liquidity requirements are met, the Company may declare and pay cash dividends on shares of its common stock if the aggregate amount of dividends paid in any fiscal year is less than the sum of (1) the 20% limitation and (2) provided the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio is 3.25 to 1.00 or less, $100,000 (less the amount of any share repurchases during the current fiscal year). In any event, as long as the liquidity requirements are met, dividends may be declared and paid in any fiscal year up to the amount of dividends permitted and paid in the preceding fiscal year without regard to the 20% limitation. The note payable consists of a five-year note with a vendor with an original principal amount of $507 and represents the financing of prepaid maintenance for telecommunications equipment. The note payable is payable in monthly installments of principal and interest of $9 through October 16, 2013 and bears interest at 2.88% per year. |

| Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | 5. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company has interest rate risk relative to its outstanding borrowings (see Note 4). The Company's policy has been to manage interest cost using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. To manage this risk in a cost efficient manner, the Company uses derivative instruments, specifically interest rate swaps. For each of the Company's interest rate swaps, the Company has agreed to exchange with a counterparty the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount. The interest rates on the portion of the Company's outstanding debt covered by its interest rate swaps are fixed at the rates in the table below plus the Company's credit spread. The Company's weighted average credit spread at May 3, 2013 was 1.75%. All of the Company's interest rate swaps are accounted for as cash flow hedges. A summary of the Company's interest rate swaps at May 3, 2013 is as follows:
The Company's interest rate swap with a notional amount of $525,000 and a fixed rate of 5.57% expired on May 3, 2013. The Company does not hold or use derivative instruments for trading purposes. The Company also does not have any derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and has not designated any non-derivatives as hedging instruments. The estimated fair values of the Company's derivative instruments as of May 3, 2013 and August 3, 2012 were as follows:
The estimated fair value of the Company's interest rate swap liabilities incorporates the Company's non-performance risk (see Note 2). The adjustment related to the Company's non-performance risk at May 3, 2013 and August 3, 2012 resulted in reductions of $360 and $851, respectively, in the fair value of the interest rate swap liabilities. The offset to the interest rate swap liabilities is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL"), net of the deferred tax asset, and will be reclassified into earnings over the term of the underlying debt. As of May 3, 2013, the estimated pre-tax portion of AOCL that is expected to be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve months is $5,959. Cash flows related to the interest rate swap are included in interest expense and in operating activities. The following table summarizes the pre-tax effects of the Company's derivative instruments on AOCL for the nine-month period ended May 3, 2013 and the year ended August 3, 2012:

| Seasonality [Abstract] | |
| Seasonality | 7. Seasonality Historically, the net income of the Company has been lower in the first and third quarters and higher in the second and fourth quarters. Management attributes these variations to the Christmas holiday shopping season and the summer vacation and travel season. The Company's retail sales, which are made substantially to the Company's restaurant customers, historically have been highest in the Company's second quarter, which includes the Christmas holiday shopping season. Historically, interstate tourist traffic and the propensity to dine out have been higher during the summer months, thereby contributing to higher profits in the Company's fourth quarter. The Company generally opens additional new locations throughout the year. Therefore, the results of operations for any interim period cannot be considered indicative of the operating results for an entire year. |

| Net Income Per Share and Weighted Average Shares | 10. Net Income Per Share and Weighted Average Shares Basic consolidated net income per share is computed by dividing consolidated net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted consolidated net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities, options or other contracts to issue shares of common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock and is based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common equivalent shares outstanding during the reporting period. Common equivalent shares related to stock options, nonvested stock awards and MSU Grants issued by the Company are calculated using the treasury stock method. The Company's outstanding stock options, nonvested stock awards and MSU Grants issued by the Company represent the only dilutive effects on diluted consolidated net income per share. The following table reconciles the components of diluted earnings per share computations:

| Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract] | |
| Commitments and Contingencies | 11. Commitments and Contingencies The Company and its subsidiaries are party to various legal and regulatory proceedings and claims incidental to their business in the ordinary course. In the opinion of management, based upon information currently available, the ultimate liability with respect to these proceedings and claims will not materially affect the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position. Related to its workers' compensation insurance coverage, the Company is contingently liable pursuant to standby letters of credit as credit guarantees to certain insurers. As of May 3, 2013, the Company had $28,171 of standby letters of credit related to securing reserved claims under workers' compensation insurance. All standby letters of credit are renewable annually and reduce the Company's borrowing availability under its Revolving Credit Facility (see Note 4). At May 3, 2013, the Company is secondarily liable for lease payments associated with two properties. The Company is not aware of any non-performance under these lease arrangements that would result in the Company having to perform in accordance with the terms of those guarantees; and therefore, no provision has been recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for amounts to be paid in case of non-performance by the third parties. The Company enters into certain indemnification agreements in favor of third parties in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that the probability of incurring an actual liability under such indemnification agreements is sufficiently remote so that no liability has been recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. |
