This unassuming restaurant located in Frontierland has undergone a menu change in the past few years.
While once heavily focused on burgers and barbeque, now Pecos Bill offers a Southwestern themed menu.
Guests can dine on tacos, fajitas and burrito rice bowls.

Guide to Eating Quick Service at Magic Kingdom
If you want to only eat at quick service restaurants while you are in Magic Kingdom, you don’t have some choices.
These are the places I would suggest dining for breakfast, lunch & dinner on your day at the Magic Kingdom:
Breakfast at Sleepy Hollow Inn
Sleepy Hollow Inn is a breakfast favorite. Serving some of the BEST waffles in all of Disney, you can’t go wrong anything.
Menu options include a traditional waffle topped with fruit & Nutella, the breakfast egg and cheese waffle sandwich, or a Mickey Waffle with cinnamon & sugar!
Lunch at Pecos Bills
When deciding on lunch, you could always grab a turkey leg, but if you want a cool place to sit down and seat, consider Pecos Bills.
They have great Tex Mex favorites and meals that can easily be split if you so choose.
Dinner at Columbia Harbour House
Columbia Harbour House has great options for great meals that make you feel as if you are getting a meal at one of Disney’s table-service restaurants.
Just because you are eating a Quick Service meal doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice quality food!
