Oasis Drive-In, Drive-in restaurant in Caledonia, Ontario, Canada
The Oasis Drive-In restaurant spans a large area along Argyle Street South, featuring an outdoor dining setup with traditional car service stations.
Opening its doors in 1927 as Cone Cottage Refreshments, the establishment served workers constructing Canada's first nine-span bridge across the Grand River.
The restaurant maintains original recipes from both the Richardson and Leousis families, representing multiple generations of local culinary traditions.
The restaurant operates from April through November, serving an extensive menu of hot dogs, homemade sandwiches, fresh-cut fries, and ice cream.
The establishment changed its name to Oasis Drive-In in 1956 due to its location overlooking the Grand River, becoming Ontario's longest-operating drive-in restaurant.
