For some characters you can handle it by using
[[http://orgmode.org/manual/Special-symbols.html][Special symbols]] in
the tables
for example this lines up correctly:
| hi | there | a | b | c |
|----+-------+---+---+---|
| \laquo{} | \raquo{} | \pi{} | \check{} | |
[[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-symbols.html][Here]] are the symbols.
You can also list them by calling `org-entities-help'.

DejaVuSansMono.
With Symbola as a fallback:
(set-fontset-font "fontset-default" nil
(font-spec :size 20 :name "Symbola"))
