Review:
I flew into BDR for a BBQ and the people at Atlantic were very nice. There was a $20 ramp fee so you might find cheaper elsewhere but they are open until 10PM and worked for me.

This is not far from the airport. I don't think there is much else to say about RT the burgers were good and the drinks were cool.
New England Pizza

Review:
This is in a strip mall right behind the airport. The food is standard Italian sub shop style and good for a stop if you are in the area. There are a few other places within walking also.

This is not your standard airport restaurant. This is styled after their NYC location and has a very nice atmosphere even if the venue is huge.
Sandpiper

Review:
The Sandpiper is on the beach in New Haven - so you are looking at about a 10 minute ride to get there.

Abbott's Lobsters
Current Rating:
Review:
This place is in Noank Ct and is about a 15 minute ride but at least you can get lobsters in the raw someplace other than Maine. It is seasonal and their website has a countdown to when they open for the summer.
Abbott’s Lobster voted Best Seafood Outdoor Dining by Connecticut Magazine's 2008 Reader's Choice!
