  • 1. Abbott's Lobster in the Rough

    $$

    If you want some of the freshest lobster, crab, mussels, or clams on the half shell (there are also non-seafood options), head down to this unassuming seaside lobster shack in sleepy Noank, a few miles southwest of Mystic. Most seating is outdoors or on the dock, where the views of Noank Harbor are magnificent.

    • Fresh seafood by the seaside in the fresh air

  • 2. Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream

    $

    Sit inside or outside at this classic ice-cream parlor, right next to the Mystic River Drawbridge, and enjoy homemade ice cream and other soda fountain favorites—maybe a New York egg cream or an ice cream shake. This ice cream has half the air whipped into it compared to other "homemade" and mass-produced products, making it richer, creamier, and more flavorful.

    2 W. Main St., Mystic, Connecticut, 06355, USA
    860-572–7978

    Known For

    • Drawbridge original flavors—Mystic Mud, Mystic Turtle, and Seaport Salty Swirl
    • Espresso, pastries, and smoothies, too
    • Close up view of the drawbridge opening and closing to allow boats to pass through
  • 3. Oyster Club

    $$$

    In the Oyster Club's rustic, barnlike dining room, start your meal with a selection of oysters and clams from the raw bar or a cup of the raved-about quahog clam chowder—New England (creamy) or Rhode Island (clear) style—before moving along to either fresh-from-the-sea surf or prime turf for your entrée. In summer, the open-air Treehouse offers another lively spot to enjoy a casual meal or a drink—weather permitting.

    13 Water St., Mystic, Connecticut, 06355, USA
    860-415–9266

    Known For

    • Menu changes daily
    • Ingredients sourced from local farms and waters
