Oasis Drive-In: Ontario's Oldest

The Oasis Drive-In is a family-owned fast food restaurant in Caledonia. Open since 1927, it is Ontario's oldest drive-in.

According to a sign next to the order window, this place opened as "The Cone Cottage" (in a cone-shaped building) serving hot dogs and sandwiches, and its best customers were workers building an adjacent bridge.
