“Ma’am, do you serve crackers?”/“Honey, we serve errybody.”
The word “cracker” has several meanings. “Do you serve crackers?”/“We serve everybody” is a popular joke.
In the American sketch comedy television series In Living Color, the episode “Player’s Club” that originally aired on March 15, 1992, President George Bush visited a soul food restaurant and was served gumbo. “Do you serve crackers?” Bush asked. “Oh baby, we serve anybody here,” the waitress responded.
“Ma’am, do you serve crackers?” “Honey, we serve errybody” (shown on an image) was posted on America’s Best Pics and Videos on August 4, 2021.
“Do you serve crabs here?”/“We serve anyone. Sit down,” “Do you serve fishcakes?,” “Do you serve women at this bar?”/“No, you have to supply your own” and “We don’t serve black people.”/“That’s OK. I don’t eat them” are similar jokes.
Wikipedia: Cracker (term)
Cracker, sometimes cracka or white cracker, is a racial epithet directed towards white people, used especially with regard to poor rural whites in the Southern United States. Although commonly a pejorative, it is also used in a neutral context, particularly in reference to a native of Florida or Georgia (see Florida cracker and Georgia cracker).

1 April 1995, Washington (DC) Post, “Puttin’ On The Ritz” by Phil McCombs, pg. C7, col. 1:
Apparently there’s this TV show called, “In Living Color,” and they portrayed what might have happened if George Bush went into a soul food restaurant.
Bush orders chili and asks the waitress, “Do you serve crackers?”
“Why sure, honey,” she says. “We serve anybody!”
