The OTHER Peach State
Did you know that South Carolina produces more peaches than Georgia? Route 23 through Aiken and Saluda Counties takes you alongside endless orchards where the sunshine-sweet fruit thrives and is harvested from May through August. In the midst of the bounty is Peaches N Such, a farm stand diner that not only sells them by the bag, peck, and bushel, but also serves peach-bread French toast for breakfast (with peach syrup) as well as memorable peach cobbler for dessert. In the city of Aiken, at the counter-culture coffee shop called New Moon Cafe, accompany cold brew or espresso by thick slices of crisp-toasted sourdough spread with ricotta cheese and topped with peach preserves. And in the official “Peach State,” just over the river in Augusta, Georgia, at Honey From the Rock Cafe, a truly divine church-made lunch concludes with house-made peach ice cream.
Peaches ‘n’ Such
A farm-stand cafe surrounded by South Carolina orchards, Peaches 'n' Such serves breakfast, lunch and, of course, peach ice cream and peach cobbler.
Honey From the Rock Cafe
Serving 4-star Dixie cafeteria fare with spiritual purpose, Augusta's Honey from the Rock is known for baked chicken, crisp corn fritters & homemade ice cream.
New Moon Cafe
Aiken's town coffee house roasts its own and offers hearty casual dishes, many vegetarian. New Moon Cafe is great for leisurely eating and web-surfing.
