Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Inc. said it’s suspending store remodels as the restaurant chain continues to walk back planned changes such as a new logo that hurt the shares.

“If your restaurant hasn’t been remodeled, you don’t need to worry, it won’t be,” the company said in a statement Tuesday on its website. Cracker Barrel said it had tested a new store design in only four out of its 660 locations.
