When your on your way up north to the cottage, you look forward to these rest stops along the highway for a fill up on the tank (either the car or the person)...sometimes its to empty the tank as well...In any case these rest stops were usually a gas station with a restaurant attached and they had there own little charm. Today's rest stops are full blown dining food courts, information booths, and plenty of seating. The King city OnRoute is one of the newer style locations.
Modern Looking, lots of glass, lots of seating...but along that comes with that it is now a much busier place. Long line ups for the Tim Hortons, washrooms etc...at least there is free WIFI. A nice welcome change from the old On Routes, somewhere you can actually sit down and take a break not just sit an eat in your car when the restaurant or OnRoute was full. 4 stars for the amenities, 2 for the long line ups...so 3 stars it is..
