Harold's Country Club - Yemassee

Harold's is a great place for a tasty, down-home supper after a nice, long paddle on the Combahee River (and don't forget dessert! . We four gals high-fived tonight over the perfect culinary ending to a perfect kayak day. Or if you're feeling low, and missing Aunt Minnie's meatloaf or Grandma's jelly biscuits, well, Harold's on Thursday potluck night might be for you. Consider whether you should just bring the in-laws to Harold's instead of slaving over a hotstove--they'll enjoy the garage decor, and you don't have to wash the dishes. Harold's is a local institution that has earned the title. You eat off styrofoam, serve yourself at the hot bar, and maybe, if they're busy, share a table withstrangers-soon-to-be-friends. Pay when you enter, after passing the bar up front, and fill up as many time as you like. Service is friendly, and you can learn a lot if you smile and ask questions. Don't expect fine dining. Expect vinyltable cloths, brown gravy, and iceburg lettuce: family reunion fare from the 60's and 70's. Like I said, tasty!

A Lowcountry classic that still feels like a slice of home whenever I return. The potluck Thursday dinner (whatever is on sale at the Piggly Wiggly) and Saturday steaks are pure and simple. The beer selection at the bar is right on, and the pool tables are waiting. Harold is gone, bless the man, but the family feeling persists. And the jar of pickles pigs feet on the bar might be older than I am. Do yourself a favor. Take the Yemassee detour (no speeding through town unlessyou want to meet Johnny Law and pay into municipal coffers) and park yourself at Harold's Country Club
