Min & Bill's Dockside Diner[edit]

Min & Bill's Dockside Diner is a quick service restaurant in the Echo Lake section of Disney's Hollywood Studios

History[edit]

Min & Bill's Dockside Diner opened with the rest of the then Disney-MGM Studios on May 5, 1989 [1]. The structure was built by Ray Walker, who also built the Sailing Ship Columbia for Disneyland [2]. Located on the shores of Echo Lake, the quick service restaurant is based on the 1930 film "Min and Bill" starring Marie Dressler and Wallace Berry.

Fun Facts and Trivia [3][edit]

  • The SS Down the Hatch that serves as the restaurant's "building" is clearly a cargo steamer.
  • The naval flags that fly atop Min and Bill's Dockside Diner actually spell out "DOCKSIDE DINER" in code. The ship's pennants give the number 782562896354, although the meaning of this number is unclear.
  • The flag flown at Min and Bill's Dockside Diner is a 45-star United States flag.
