    First time martini maker?
    Cathleen L.

    We went in on a quite Sunday afternoon, nothing else in the area was open. Only a few tables with patrons. So full bar with a young, I'm assuming college kid bartender, that had idea how to make a martini or a cosmo?!! We almost jumped behind the bar to help! So food was actually ok. We were surprised after the drink ordering. Catfish and gumbo were excellent! Burger was ok. Salad was ok. I don't think mushrooms or large slices of red onion belong in a salad. Waiters, servers need help. They look like they just rolled out of bed and didn't brush their hair and or ran to work in their gym clothes. No utensils provided when they served the food and we asked for water and she brought one to the table. There were 2 of us eating. So ...... only going back if it's the only place open again.

    We met our cousins in Natchitoches for the Festival of lights & stopped in the Pioneer Pub for drinks & some good bar food. We started off with the Wookie....Homemade fries topped with brisket and melted cheese. Pretty darn good! I ordered the El Camino Burger with Cheese, Homemade Salsa, Guacamole & Jalapenos.....it was terrific! One cousin ordered the Mushroon Cheeseburger, another ordered the Shrimp Po-boy & hubby ordered the Spicy Shrimp Quesadilla....everyone was really pleased with their choices. I will go back to Pioneer Pub. It's the perfect laid back little Pub off the main drag in Natchitoches!

    My husband and I tried this restaurant while visiting. We really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. We weren't sure what kind of beer we wanted and the waitress was quick to offer samples which is definitely an "A+" in our book. I got the tomato basil pizza and he got the chicken fried steak sandwich. Both very good. Definitely a place to visit if you want good food and a place to relax!

    I wanted a soul food lunch and came here. I was not disappointed. The dining room is spacious so…read moregreat for large groups and work lunches. I got the special of the day which was baked chicken with rice and gravy and two sides. They guy serving was super sweet to explain to me the ordering process and I had a great conversation with the woman in line before me who comes every week for the Wednesday special. For my sides, I chose the greens and mashed potatoes. Even though I got two starches, it was worth it because the mashed potatoes and gravy were worth having as a main dish! I loved the greens, too, especially since they had all the hot sauce and peppers and vinegar choices you could want. The chicken was fork tender and I left nothing on the plate. I love that they provide each guest a little wrapped package of cornbread and iced cake of the day, too. I will definitely be stopping at Pamela's any time I'm in town.

We both felt really heavy afterward, and my mom even felt sick after eating there. It was just basic diner food and a bit overpriced for something you can get almost anywhere else. However, the cake that comes with the cornbread was my favorite part. SERVICE: The service was fine. It had more of a cafeteria-style vibe, so there isn't much to say about it. AMBIANCE: The inside felt very run down. The bar wasn't even finished and didn't look like it was ever used. Overall, it had a very hole-in-the-wall feel.
