Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar at Disney Springs has brought back its holiday transformation for 2026, adding seasonal food and drink options to its aviation-themed setting. The venue does not take reservations, so guests looking for a table will need to join a walk-up waitlist for either indoor or outdoor seating.
Attractions Magazine reported that there was already a wait during a 4:30 p.m. media visit. Guests checking in can ask whether space is available at the outdoor bar, which may provide an alternative to waiting for a table, though availability varies. Nearby options for a snack or drink before joining the waitlist include The Ganachery, Six Ravens and The Basket at Wine Bar George.
New food choices this season include North Pole Catch, a lighter seafood assortment, and Tinsel and Tender Bites, Cabernet-braised short ribs served with cauliflower purée. The holiday menu also includes Boughs of Holly Deviled Eggs, Oh Christmas Brie, Present Perfect Croquettes and A Wreath of Wellington.
Among the drinks sampled by Attractions Magazine, the nonalcoholic Hangar Holly Jolly was described as a festive, somewhat sweet option. The Cranberry Apple Compass Mule and Frosted Passage Martini also stood out; the martini was noted as a choice for guests who enjoy dessert-style cocktails. The publication described the Holiday Cranberry Negroni as stronger and less festive than expected. Hot Chocolate Around the Globe Flight was not sampled during the media event.
For the fullest holiday decor experience, indoor seating puts guests among the bar’s Christmas decorations. Outdoor waterfront seating also has holiday decor and music, and may be a comfortable choice for visitors focused more on the food and drinks than the indoor atmosphere.
The seasonal bar can be part of a Disney Springs holiday visit that also includes the Christmas Tree Stroll, dining, shopping and seasonal entertainment. Disney Springs Vice President Debbie Hart said her family visited the free tree stroll before she took on the role, often pairing it with trying a restaurant or snack.
