Disney Springs announced that CrazyShake by Black Tap will open a pop-up location in March 2026, bringing their famous Instagram-worthy milkshakes to Florida for the first time. This will be a grab-and-go window focusing on extravagant milkshakes rather than a full restaurant.
The menu includes Instagrammable specials like a Mickey Mouse Shake, featuring a rim of vanilla frosting and Mickey sprinkles, topped with a Mickey-shaped crispy treat, rock candy, whipped cream, and a cherry. This Disney-themed approach ensures unique offerings for visitors, even for those familiar with CrazyShake from California.
These Milkshakes Are Legitimately Insane
CrazyShake milkshakes are far from ordinary, tall glasses of ice cream and milk. They’re extravagant creations with frosting-rimmed glasses topped with cookies, candy bars, brownies, pretzels, and whipped cream, designed to be visually striking and shareable on social media.
Black Tap’s marketing strategy cleverly encourages organic promotion as friends and followers see these delightful shakes. Unlike many Instagram-friendly foods, CrazyShakes taste as good as they look, ensuring satisfied customers who become brand advocates instead of feeling scammed by mere appearances.
Black Tap Already Exists at Disneyland
Black Tap operates a full-service restaurant at Downtown Disney in California serving burgers, sandwiches, and their signature CrazyShake milkshakes alongside other menu items in a sit-down dining environment. But they also have a CrazyShake window at Downtown Disney specifically for people who want the shakes without committing to a full meal and waiting for table service.
That grab-and-go window model is what’s coming to Disney Springs instead of trying to replicate the entire full restaurant experience. The smaller footprint makes it way easier to slot into Disney Springs without needing massive space for a sit-down restaurant, and honestly most people visiting Disney Springs probably just want the shakes anyway without sitting down for burgers.
No Location Confirmed Yet
Disney Springs hasn’t confirmed where exactly the CrazyShake by Black Tap pop-up is going to be located, which is kind of annoying because it makes it harder to plan visits or know what to expect. Disney Springs has four different neighborhoods with totally different vibes, and where this ends up could affect how convenient it is to access during typical Disney Springs visits.
The pop-up model suggests this won’t be a permanent standalone building but rather some kind of temporary setup that could be a kiosk, converted retail space, or outdoor setup depending on what’s available. Pop-up concepts at Disney Springs have appeared in all kinds of configurations over the years.
At Disney Springs For Limited Time Only
The announcement says CrazyShake by Black Tap is opening for “a limited time,” which creates urgency to visit during the availability window instead of assuming it’ll be there forever. Limited-time food offerings generate way higher initial traffic because people rush to try stuff before it disappears.
Disney Springs has done limited-time and seasonal food concepts before, using pop-ups to test whether guests actually want something without committing to permanent spaces and long-term lease agreements. If CrazyShake performs really well during its limited run, it could extend or even become permanent, but nothing in the announcement confirms any plans beyond opening in March for a limited time.
When to Visit Disney Springs
The March 2026 opening gives Disney Springs something new to promote right as spring break travel season kicks into high gear. For Disney Springs visitors in March and beyond during whatever timeframe this operates, CrazyShake provides another dessert option beyond the existing ice cream shops, bakeries, and candy stores.
Whether this becomes a genuine must-visit destination or just another option in an already crowded Disney Springs food scene depends on execution, pricing, how convenient the location ends up being, and whether the shakes actually deliver on their visual promise when you’re standing there trying to eat one. The March opening is coming fast, and those viral Disneyland milkshakes are finally making their way to Florida.
