Pioneer Lakeshore Café - Colchester

We recently moved to the area and after trying most local restaurants, pioneer has made its way to the top of our list as a reliably good quality take out meal. We haven’t done in yet, but for what we have seen, that will also be a good experience ?Kid-friendliness: The chicken tenders are more like quality breaded cutlets. My 6 year old loves them but every kid may not.

Best hash brown I've ever had. Amazing service and incredibly friendly owners.

Staff is extremely friendly and makes you feel welcome your whole stay and I really appreciated that. Breakfast menu is limited. Was slightly disappointed when an omlette was not on menu but they had all ingredients needed for omlette. When I asked if I could order one I was told it could not be made. I have also has a chicken sandwich that was very yummy. The poutine was disappointing though. Did not have curds of cheese and just didn't taste like poutine.. just tasted like frys with some side of can gravy.

This place is clean with a nice vibe. The menu has a lot of fried food- not very heart healthy. We tried the salad with baked salmon side and Bahn Mi chicken meatball sandwich. Fresh greens average portion with a small but tasty tender salmon steak for an additional $10.

What a great find! We had the pulled pork sandwich, grilled cheese, and a salad and it was excellent. The fries are also great. Service was super friendly and you can tell the staff takes pride in their food. We will definitely be back.
