More about Pioneer Grill

What it isPioneer Grill is the all-counter American diner inside Jackson Lake Lodge.

Pioneer Grill is the all-counter American diner inside Jackson Lake Lodge. Its 1950s-style look, long counter and swivel stools make it a relaxed place to sit down for a familiar meal during a lodge visit. I'd come for the easy diner atmosphere and a huckleberry treat, not make it a special trip on its own.

What to orderThe menu covers diner staples, from pancakes and omelets at breakfast to burgers, hot dogs,…

The menu covers diner staples, from pancakes and omelets at breakfast to burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, soups and salads later in the day. Huckleberry milkshakes are the standout, with berry desserts such as pie and the Huckle-Brownie for another local-flavored pick. The menu can change with the season, but huckleberry treats are a recurring draw.

Set expectationsThe casual counter setup is part of the appeal.

The casual counter setup is part of the appeal. Visitor experiences with the food and service are mixed, so I'd treat this as an easy lodge meal rather than a sure bet for a memorable dinner. Pioneer Grill follows Jackson Lake Lodge's seasonal dining schedule; check the park's current dining information before planning around a meal here.
