Pecos Bill was a fictional Wild West cowboy probably invented around 1916. Yep, old Bill is a tall tale (hence the name).
For years this Frontierland restaurant was the home of the “Mile Long Fixin’s Bar”, which was a good reason to eat here. There used to be cheese, grilled onions, and all kinds of fixin’s for hamburgers. You could make a killer sandwich by adding anything you heart desired.
Today the fixin’s bar is smaller, but you still get to fix your own sandwich. The way you like it.

Wheat Buns
A couple of years ago Disney got on a wheat bun kick. I don’t know what genius in Anehiem thinks that hamburgers and hot dogs taste better on a wheat bun, but they are just stu … (better not say that) let’s just say, they aren’t very smart. If god meant for hamburgers and hot dogs to be served on wheat buns, then bread would be made out of wheat. (Who’s not so smart now?) I know. But you get what I mean.
The last time we ate at Pecos Bill they had wheat buns. Yuck.

Dad’s Bottom Line
For the last several years, Disney has been standardizing menus at counter service restaurants. This restaurant has suffered from the standardization. Yes, the cheese may be gone off the fixin’s bar, but you can still make a mean burger here. (Love those mushrooms and onions.) And now that the white bread buns are back, this place is fit to eat at again.
