ESSO Cardlock Dixie-Derry

Everest Restaurant Milton. (This was more famously the Chalet Restaurant truck stop. The owner of the Chalet passed in 2022. Not sure if itis still open 2022/3.)

Everest Restaurant sign (I have to pass on some sad news. This man wasn't a trucker but he cooked up and served more bacon and eggs than probably any one else around. John Chronopoulos, the owner of the old Chalet Restaurant has passed away. For you older truckers a lot of you might remember that place. It was on the west side of Highway 25 north of the 401 in Milton. When he bought the restaurant in the early 70's it had an "A" frame entrance and when the town told him he couldn't tear down the old building, he built the new restaurant around the old one. A lot of truckers would fuel up at the 5th wheel, maybe sleep there but go to John's for breakfast. If something went wrong you'd hear from the kitchen in a Greek accent "Jezamachrist that stupids". He didn't suffer fools, but had a heart of gold. When he laughed, his face would light up with the humour. His friends from Greece also worked with him, Dimos as a cook and Adrianna as a waitress. We spent a lot of time there, eating, drinking coffee, visiting with old and new friends. Judy Greenfield Bonner - January 2022.)

Flying M TS -1 (No longer has a restaurant . Fuel stop, convenience store and garage.)

GATEWAY TRAVEL CENTRE (The NOTL, which I consider to be in St Catharines, had an ESSO Cardlock for commercial vehicles in 2010. Transport Grp Robert and CEVA were getting fuel. It is run by BVD and now operates under Petrocan banner.)
