Rumor Pecos Bills to be rethemed?

[Charlie The Chatbox Ghost]

They could just as easy turn it into something themed to the attached Country Bears. A Hungry Bear 2.0 with BBQ like in California. If that area of Frontierland is going for a Northwest national park vibe like the concept art suggests, it would fit perfectly.

If they want it to be different from California's, they could make it a more bear-themed restaurant than BBQ. Fish, fruit, honey, that sort of stuff. Salmonburgers? Probably basic burgers and chicken too. I think it would be awesome if they brought back the Mile Long Bar, but as an actual bar- you could give each bear their own "usual" that they'd order after a show. Sell novelty drinking mugs shaped like Big Al's Moonshine Jug.

Then if you want Tiana's, you could probably fit it in next to TBA by changing the route of the parade on-road and then getting rid of Pirate's Adventure since, iirc, that's long abandoned.

My argument is that Tiana's Bayou Adventure currently feels like a glorified advertisement for Tiana's restaurant, so it's weird to have a whole ride with deep lore about a food cooperative and special spice to not have an accompanying restaurant.

That would have the train going through the middle of the restaurant...lol
If they are going to add Tianas Palace, Pecos Bill's is the location...and really should have been done already...

Whoops, I wasn't fully awake, totally missed the train tracks. That said, the initial square I marked has more than enough space for a restaurant behind the tracks (could have a tunnel to walk through)
Alternatively, you could nestle it right up next to TBA to have a proper building with the full appearance of the one in the movie that's in front of the tracks, and then reroute the parade onroad.

It is weird, but that’s modern Disney for you

Brand new redone menu debuted at Pecos Bills today.

Whatever they do I hope its qs, and not an all you can enjoy to eat, a bar, or something with low throughput. The park needs more QS not less.

Both coasts just need more dining overall.

RIP my hopes for a WDW Hungry Bear and/or Mile Long Bar

Retheme seems to be off the table for now according to BlogMickey, mainly due to unknown future Cars expansion costs.

That's just BlogMickey theorizing. That's not inside information.

 

[Charlie The Chatbox Ghost]

AFAIK no inside sources have said anything recently about Pecos. Here over at the site that shall not be named, we haven’t been told anything by sources. Last word on it was the Tiana’s rumor years ago iirc

That corn mousse sounds like it has potential.

Could be, but BlogMickey does have correct sources from time to time, so couldn't really tell if they are implying that.

 

[granfiesta]

The new menu looks like it has lots of potential! I wasn't a big fan of the previous one but this actually looks decent.

Ate here on Monday and got the fajita platter. Thought it was pretty solid. The bowls sound like a great addition

Anything regarding a retheme about Peco's being rethemed has been kicked down the street because of Lightning McQueen speeding in and raising the electrical bill /s.

Nah but seriously, Peco's is gonna hang on until Cars is open, and probably a bit after that. Would be shocked if a retheme happens prior, be it Tiana or Hungry Bear or some secret third thing like 'Mater's Junkyard BBQ'.

 

[ToTBellHop]

It all comes down to the quality of the ingredients. Is it Fancy Feast meat or closer to what they serve at Satu’li? With the old menu, I walked out onto the street and told everyone, “they’re eating the dogs!” Do better!
