The Train-Themed Restaurant In South Carolina That Will Make You Feel Like A Kid Again

Trains and food. They’re both such iconic representations for the state of South Carolina that if and when you can combine the two, the result is out of this world. Such is the case on Main Street in Traveler’s Rest at The Whistle Stop at the American Cafe’.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
