The Company reported that comparable store restaurant sales for the five weeks ending Friday, October 29, 2004, in its Cracker Barrel Old Country Store(R) ("Cracker Barrel") units were up 2.3% from the comparable period last year, with an approximately 3.6% higher average check.

Comparable restaurant sales in the Company's Logan's Roadhouse(R) restaurants in fiscal October were up 5.2%, including an approximately 5.7% higher average check.
