Boone Hall Farms
(Restaurants - American)
2521 Hwy 17N, Mt Pleasant  29466 • 843-856-5366
        Description: MOUNT PLEASANT. The café at Boone Hall Farms market serves huge slabs of cake – the chocolate is absolutely sinful, and the spicy, tender carrot cake has a thick layer of cream cheese icing that has to be seen to be believed. There's also ice cream and a few home baked cookies and brownies, if you'd rather. Before you indulge in all that, take a peek around the store, where you'll find an assortment of clever gifts, wine, produce and gourmet foods. And if time permits, this is a great place for lunch, with satisfying sandwiches, soups, and chilidogs. Free WiFi too.
