Some truly down home, wholesome food can be found on the back roads of South Carolina. Big cities in the Palmetto State may have more restaurant offerings but in a small town, the flavorful experience extends well beyond the food on your plate.

Such is the case in the tiny town of Patrick, South Carolina.

Found in the Sand Hills State Forest halfway between McBee and Cheraw, the town got its start as a railroad town and still proudly preserves the historic train station (pictured here).
Home to approximately 350 people, Patrick hosts an annual Pine Straw Festival each spring to celebrate the many long leaf pines that line the landscape.

It's also home to one restaurant: Bills Grill Cafe. And a visit here is as rewarding as getting out of the city for a drive over to the tiny town of Patrick itself.
