Halloween has made its way back to Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar at Disney Springs, and once again, Jock has gone all-in. The seasonal takeover is happening now through November 9, filling the waterfront hangout with vintage Halloween decorations and a new menu of food and drinks created just for the occasion.
There’s quite a bit that’s new on the menu this year. On the food side, Disney has introduced Candelabra Eggs, Dark Forest Dip, Bone Kebabs, Midnight Mayhem Popcorn Chicken, and the rather impressive-looking Skull of the Dead Dip. The Alien Invader Sliders are back as well, bringing crispy Nashville hot chicken to the mix.
The drinks may be having even more fun with the Halloween theme. Fright of the Espresso offers guests three boozy cold-brew combinations to choose from, including pumpkin spice, salted caramel, and toasted marshmallow. There’s also a new Temple of Doom Margarita, along with the Skull and Sour and purple, glittery Midnight Relic. For anyone looking for something without alcohol, the bright green Viper’s Nest joins the lineup. Let’s take a closer look!
Jock Lindsey’s Halloween Menu
Surrounded by kitschy 1940s Halloween décor, dig into the new and exclusive sips and nibbles on the devilishly delicious menu.

The Halloween decorations are worth taking a look at while you’re there, too. Jock’s usual collection of aviation memorabilia has been mixed with the kind of Halloween decorations you might remember seeing decades ago. Pumpkins, black cats, old-fashioned blow molds, tinsel garland, and vintage-inspired pieces are scattered throughout the bar, and even the diving bell has a collection of jack-o’-lanterns hanging overhead.
Of course, this is Jock Lindsey’s, so Disney has worked a few movie references into the decorations. Keep an eye out for a weathered Bigelow’s Air Circus banner, a nod to Disney’s 1991 film The Rocketeer. You might spot another Rocketeer reference on one of the South Seas Club coasters.
I love that this takeover doesn’t try to turn Jock Lindsey’s into a full-blown haunted bar. The old-school Halloween decorations actually fit the place surprisingly well, especially mixed in with all of Jock’s treasures and travel memorabilia. Add in a Skull of the Dead Dip and a Temple of Doom Margarita, and this seems like a pretty fun excuse to stop by Disney Springs before November 9.
