There’s something special about a “mom and pop” restaurant, especially in South Carolina. It’s just nice knowing that your food is made with love and care and that you literally can’t get that dish anywhere else. Sure, the chains are great, especially if you’re looking for consistency. But, it’s just an extra fun experience to go to a “mom and pop” restaurant and have one of their much-praised meals. As it turns out, South Carolina has one of the best “mom and pop” restaurants in America.
South Carolina ‘Mom and Pop’ Restaurant is Among the Best
The food experts at Love Food have a new feature out about the best “mom and pop” restaurants in the U.S. “Sometimes, only good old-fashioned comfort food will do, and there are plenty of places across the US that dish up exactly that,” they explain. “From century-old diners offering belly-busting breakfasts to old-timey Italian joints that have used the same recipes for decades, these are our favorite mom-and-pop restaurants in every part of the country.”
Looking at the biggest city in the U.S., Love Food picks Sylvia’s Restaurant as the best “mom and pop” restaurant in New York City. They say this place has been around for decades, serving up everything from “expertly made chicken and waffles to shrimp and grits with all the trimmings.” Sylvia’s was founded in 1962 by Sylvia Woods, and she passed away in 2012. This spot “has a reputation as somewhere everyone is welcome, particularly because of its history as an important meeting place during the Civil Rights Movement.” So, if you’re traveling to New York City at any point soon, you may want to check out Sylvia’s Restaurant and get some of those delicious chicken and waffles. The feature goes on to highlight one great local restaurant in each state, including ours.
So, which South Carolina restaurant is among the best “mom and pop” restaurants in America? It’s Sweatman’s Bar-B-Que in Holly Hill. I know this spot is known for its fantastic barbecue that you just can’t get anywhere else. “The original 1950s location eventually closed, but this cute farmhouse venue opened in 1977 and there’s been a storm cooked up here ever since,” Love Food states. “Faithful punters come in for the oak, hickory, and pecan-smoked pork, which is doused in a secret recipe mustard-based sauce.” If you want to give it a try, they’re located at 1427 Eutaw Road. In North Carolina, Bum’s Restaurant at 566 E 3rd Street in Ayden was their pick.
