If you ever have a chance to stop at Exit 139 Ft Myers Florida on I75 on the way to Miami, there is a yellow trailer just before the Pilot Stop that has the best Cheesesteak you have ever eaten. Family owned and operated and we love truckers! Burgers, Fries, Sausage and Peppers,Fried Shrimp,Onion Rings and more! Stop by, say hello and get a free drink with your order! Just tell em you saw us on the "Truckers Forum".

A few years back this stop was Grandma's Kitchen with a great home cooked buffet, but then Pilot took it over and replaced it with a Subway. Now we offer fresh hot food for all the truckers and workers in the industrial area surrounding the exit. My wife and daughter run it from 8am - 6pm and then my wife and I from 6-8. We truly believe you deserve great food at a fair price and great service.
 
I like truck stops like that,good home town country cooking as well as AWESOME SERVICE.Unfortunately I don't think i'll ever get that way anytime soon.Companies like to keep me in the east coast and midwest.
 
yep me too. i much prefer a mom/pop food place over a truckstop anyday. food is usually much better and priced right also. whenever i would find one when i was driving i would write it down so i would remember to stop there again when i came back thru.
 
It has taken a few weeks but business has been getting better every week as people stop by to give us a try. All I have to do is feed you once and you'll be back. We also visit the local shops in the commercial park and hand out menus and coupons. We have picked up a few steadys from Roofing Companies, Camping World, etc.

You're truck stop i'm sure beats the heck out of the everyday pilot,flying J,loves ect you see.I avoid those truck stops except to get fuel.I never take my 10 hr brk at any of those well known truck stops.It's either a mom and pops place or a restarea.That's why I have a large truck stop book instead of the pocket book.
 
This sucks i live in florida and am the last one to know about this place... I think I will have to move out of the state. Maybe then I will see a little more of it.
 
Don't forget, mention truckersforum.net and get a free drink with your meal!

Does this include Budweiser? ;)
