If you are willing to drive southwest for about 25 minutes, you will find a true gem for good, country eats at Bubba-Cue's Bar B-Cue House, 6165 Savannah Hwy., Ravenel, SC. Bubba-Cue's has tender, moist and still flavorful pulled pork, succulent friend chicken, the best macaroni and cheese my daughters claim to have ever eaten and delicate, sweet hushpuppies that stopped me from crying.

I would highly recommend going to the visitors center and then taking one of the mini bus tours. The busses are located behind the visitors center. We had avoided doing this for years, and then we took one of the tours. It was wonderful.
I would also recommend California Dreaming for a meal.
