- AAAmine AFeb 18, 20263.0Pilot in Joliet is a fantastic spot for truckers and travelers in need of reliable amenities and services. The location is convenient, staff are friendly, and the facilities are generally well-maintained. Their fuel pumps are efficient, and there’s a selection of food and supplies available in the store. The parking lot is spacious, making it easy to maneuver even larger rigs. It’s a welcoming and practical stop when you’re on the road. The one area that could use serious attention is the showers they could definitely benefit from an upgrade. A cleaner, more modern setup here would elevate the overall experience. Nevertheless, it’s still a go to stop if you’re in the area.
- MNMohamed NurJan 13, 20261.0Showers are not working very slow
- AАлексей ХубраковJan 9, 20261.0This is the worst truck stop. I've been waiting for a shower for two hours already. They don't give showers to drivers on purpose.
- RPRobert PattersonJan 4, 20264.0Very clean truck stop plus can park anywhere lol Only thing that was bad was the showers was down SMH
- MSmark simmsDec 26, 20252.0I got a 6 piece chicken for 9 dollars and a cup of coffee for a couple of dollars, the coffee was good but the chicken was old and dried out like it was sitting there from over night,I arrived at 10:30 am so I know they didn’t just cook that chicken because it wasnt even fresh hot and crispy, it was cold and dried out, I didn’t have time to go back inside to tell them about the issue because I was on my way to work, it was the day after Christmas so they probably didn’t feel like cooking fresh chicken but they should not be selling old dried out chicken for full price of 9 dollars,they should just throw them in the garbage and don’t sell none at all, I’m only giving it 2 stars because the coffee was good but the chicken wasn’t, if you get chicken make sure you ask them how old is that chicken or you might be buying yesterday’s chicken that they never threw away.
