Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer at Marina Bay Sands is the first Asian flagship of the New York City institution known for its juicy burgers, giant milkshakes, craft beers and old-school hip-hop vibe. Everything about the restaurant is designed to feel larger than life, from the food to the room itself.
The menu's signature craft burgers include The All-American Burger and the award-winning Wagyu Steakhouse Burger, which pairs a wagyu beef patty with pepper jack cheese, bacon, crispy onions and roasted garlic aioli. No visit is considered complete without one of Black Tap's over-the-top CrazyShake milkshakes, towering and wildly colourful creations ranging from Cotton Candy to Cookies 'N Cream Supreme.
Set within The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, Black Tap has been recognised with the 2023–2024 and 2024 TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards. Guests can also take a piece of the experience home, with Black Tap's iconic t-shirts and caps available at the restaurant. The venue operates a casual dress code and welcomes guests with dietary restrictions and food allergies when informed in advance.
Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer occupies #01-80 of The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, and it wears its New York roots proudly. This is the first Asian flagship of the original New York City institution, known back home for its juicy burgers, giant milkshakes, craft beers and old-school hip-hop energy — and the Singapore outpost brings all of that with it, wrapped in a room designed to feel larger than life.
The backbone of the menu is Black Tap's lineup of signature craft burgers. The All-American Burger anchors the classic end of the menu, while The Wagyu Steakhouse Burger has picked up award recognition of its own, built around a wagyu beef patty layered with pepper jack cheese, bacon, crispy onions and roasted garlic aioli. Other named burgers on show include The Texan Burger and the Chili Cheese Burger, both featured among the restaurant's highlighted dishes. Guests have also singled out the Caroline chicken wings in reviews, describing them as saucy, sticky and delicious — a strong option for anyone looking beyond the burger menu.
No trip to Black Tap is considered complete without a CrazyShake. These towering, over-the-top milkshakes come piled with toppings and built for spectacle as much as flavour, with options spanning Cotton Candy, Cookies 'N Cream Supreme, Brooklyn Blackout and The Cookie Shake. For those who can't make it to a table, CrazyShakes are also available to go, so the experience isn't limited to sitting down for a full meal.
Black Tap Singapore has also become the first place in the world to serve CrazySundaes, described as the dessert-first evolution of the CrazyShake. The debut lineup includes Hella Hot Fudge (vanilla soft serve with flourless chocolate cake, spiced peanut brittle, candied peanuts, cocoa pebbles and hot fudge sauce), Cherry Bomb (vanilla soft serve with cherry pie, granola, butter crumble, maraschino cherries and black cherry sauce), and Bangkok Banana Crunch (vanilla soft serve with fried banana fritters, banana pudding, cornflakes, banana chips and dulce de leche sauce).
Black Tap regularly rotates in limited-time specials. The Sweet Heat Comeback brings back the Truffle Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich each July, stacking a crispy chicken patty with truffle hot honey, white BBQ sauce, red pepper jam and pickles. These kinds of specials mean it's worth checking what's currently running before a visit, since the lineup shifts through the year.
Black Tap's reputation isn't just word of mouth — the restaurant has picked up both the 2023–2024 and 2024 TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards. Guest reviews back that up, with diners praising the burgers as flavoursome and generously stacked without going overboard, the craft beer as exceptionally good, and service — with particular mentions of staff member Edwin — as attentive and memorable.
Black Tap keeps a casual dress code: T-shirts, polo shirts, jeans, chinos, sundresses and skirts are all fine, though swimwear, robes and hotel slippers aren't permitted, and guests not dressed accordingly may be declined entry. The restaurant is open Monday to Friday from 11.30am to 10.15pm (last seating), and 11am to 10.15pm (last seating) on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, with drinks orders taken until 10.30pm.
Parking is available nearby at the South (Blue Zone) carpark, and diners spending a minimum of S$75 can redeem complimentary parking, available on request at the restaurant or bar, limited to one redemption per table. Guests with dietary restrictions or food allergies are welcome to inform the team in advance or on arrival, though the kitchen notes it handles a variety of ingredients and can't guarantee a fully allergen-free environment.
Beyond the meal itself, Black Tap sells its own branded t-shirts and caps at the restaurant, so regulars can take a piece of the experience home with them, and Sands Members can earn Resort Dollars on their spend, with rates varying by day of the week and membership tier.
