Spotlight on Hartsville: Yogi Bear's Honey Fried Chicken

Damn! Baked Tilapia again?! I wish there was some alternative dining option that could cater to even the most distinguished palate. Look no farther than Yogi Bear's Honey Fried Chicken, amigo.

Apparently this used to be a regional chain, and Hartsville has yet to catch on to the fact that it is home to the only surviving location. After extensive research,* I've found that most of the other restaurants closed down in the 1970s, and, as a matter of fact, most of the Internet thinks this chain is defunct. There apparently used to be giant fiberglass Yogi Bears at restaurant locations, but sadly they have been vandalized and/or buggered into the history books.

In my experience, although the restaurant itself is pretty off-putting, the food is surprisingly edible. Who can resist a nice Pic-a-nic Basket full of delicious honey fried chicken? You can certainly do a lot worse in Hartsville (looking at you Huddle House), so why not go for this unique dining experience? Let's face it: you don't have anything better to do with your spare time, by which I mean weeknights from 8 -10.
