Surprisingly good seafood for an airport. The prices were high, but R and R Seafood Bar did Maryland seafood justice. Service was very fast and friendly, making it a solid stop during a short layover. *Deviled Crab Cakes: came as four small, freshly fried pieces with a very small amount of cocktail sauce and a lemon slice. They were hot, crisp, and packed with sweet, tender Maryland crab. There was no filler and the light breading let the crab shine. Even with minimal sauce, they were flavorful on their own. *Oysters: each order included three oysters that were well shucked and clean. They were East Coast oysters with a nice balance of sweet and briny flavors, again served with basic cocktail sauce and lemon. Overall, this is a great airport option, even if it is a bit pricey. I ate seafood at an airport and did not get food poisoning, so I count that as a win. read more

The people were very warm when you walk in and very friendly... I got a very tasty orange crush!

As I was walking towards my gate, saw R&R seafood bar had fresh raw oysters and I knew I had to get it. Luckily there was couple open high top seats available. They had 2 types of raw oysters and ended up getting 3 of each, the wellfleet from MA and the local kent island from MD. This was my first time ever eating fresh raw oysters at the airport and wow both were delicious!! How often can you get Bomb fresh Oysters shuck in front of you in an airport. The staff here working over the counter were constantly busy, but still had great customer service, checking up on meC refilling my water. Im definitely getting oysters here again whenever I fly over to this airport. read more

Fantastic! This place goes on the list with Pappadeaux and Legal Seafood. Astonishingly great food in an airport, really anywhere. I had the lump crab roll with coleslaw pictured below. Home run! read more

As a former Maryland girl who now lives in Boston, I only order crabcakes when I visit Maryland (or Delaware.) Everywhere else, they use too many breadcrumbs. On a recent layover at BWI, I ventured over to R&R Seafood in Terminal A. I ordered a Caesar salad with a crabcake on the side. The Caesar was great. My cocktail was great. My server was awesome (Jamal). The crabcake, however, was a bitter disappointment. It tasted like it came from the freezer section at the grocery store. I wouldn't have been so disappointed if it hadn't been a $35 item. Lesson learned. Next time I have a long layover, I'll uber to G&M and back. read more

Very cool bar in the middle of Gate A terminals. I don't drink liquor but I got drawn by the raw oysters menu written on the board so I think maybe something cooked ia available and I was glad there was the Bacon and Parmesan roasted oysters! 3 huge oysters were on a plate and I love it with Tabasco! However, the last one looked raw or half cooked, not roasted at all:( So I only ate 2... the second one looked half cooked too but well... the servers were busy and really doing their best to keep up with customers. Price was $15.99 for 3 oysters, so about $5.33 a piece plus tax. Will try a more filling snackin' next time:) read more

I got to the airport super early and decided to come here for a drink. The bartender (can't remember his name but he was from further up the east coast) was super quick, personable, and attentive. I did not try any of the food, though I was tempted. I sat here for about 45 minutes and had 2 old fashioneds. They were good. The only thing that didn't make them perfect was of course the ice. No fault of the bartender of course. I would totally come back here again. I remember thinking the price was very comparable to those outside of the airport, which had me pleasantly surprised. read more

Vibrant bar in the A terminal of BWI. This place gets going at 6:00 AM and is a modern, lively rectangular bar in the middle of terminal hallway. From my experiences here, would recommend skipping the food and just going for drink(s). The bartenders are fun and drinks are good. Felt like most patrons were friendly and saw a lot of randoms talking to each other. Food is mediocre and overpriced, although oysters are good. Better to go to Miss Shirley's adjacent to this for food. read more

A typical airport bar by gates A11-16. We didn't eat prior to going through security, didn't want the usual Food Court offerings (Mickey D's Chipotle, CFA etc.) so we carried on until we reached the bar. I figured I could get a nice crab cake and a glass of wine. They were packed with the normal weeknight travelers. Hubby and I found a seat and waited. The waiter/bartender looked swamped but did make sure he acknowledged us and came over to offer us a menu and water. He was running around the bar as if he was on skates! (No wonder he stays slim and trim). The Caesar salad and crab cake was...just okay. Like airline food really. I watched the cooks as the warmed up previously frozen items. So be aware, it's not homemade. Hubby said his fish tacos were "aight ". They are a bit oily. Marylanders, don't be fooled into thinking you're getting a G&M or Pappa's crab cake. Can't compare. But wasn't horrid either. If in a pinch, I'd eat here again. But since the service was friendly, I'd come back for another pre-flight pour! read more

Your usual bland airport food. I was nervous when the food came out within 5 minutes of me ordering it. Not so good cheesy crab dip (but the pita bread was good) and over fried, bland shrimp. But lady working there was really nice and my drink was fantastic. So I'd go back on my for a drink while waiting on my flight. read more

Careful if you go here and expect to be acknowledged with in 15 minutes or be treated with any respect when you don't have time to order after they finally acknowledge you. Young short skinny black male server started cussing at me and trying to instigate a fight with my husband after I left my sandwich wrapper on the counter - telling me the bar was for patrons only, I told him I tried to be but he wouldn't acknowledge me- mind you I have a 5 hour flight home and I had time to go purchase and eat from another shop before I was acknowledged while my husband sat at the bar waiting to order us drinks. This is less of a review but more a hope his manager takes notice of his employees behavior. read more

Not sure what kind of backup this bar was experiencing the day I patronized this place, but service was awful. We weren't greeted at all, and had to eventually flag down one of the staff after 10 minutes of sitting there to get any service at all. I ordered the shrimp basket with a salad. The shrimp was good, the salad was a Caesar which I didn't expect b/c the menu said side salad. I didn't want a Caesar but was hungry so I ate it regardless. Had to flag down the bartender to pay. Next time I'll make sure I eat before I go to the airport if I'm at the International terminal. read more

We stopped for a drink while we were waiting to board our flight. We were lucky to get seats at the bar and ordered some wine. Bartender was helpful and got our orders in quick. Overall not an overly memorable experience but it was great that you could choose the size of your wine pour and they got us in and out quickly. read more

I don't expect much from airport restaurants but I was pleasantly surprised here. Sat at the bar and the staff were extremely friendly. Drinks were good only had one didn't want to be denied boarding haha! Had the shrimp basket although it was served on a plate....luckily I had a long time before my flight because it took a while to come out. My perceptive server noticed I had been waiting a while and went back to the kitchen to "light a fire" under them. Once I had it the shrimp and fries were delicious and huge portions! Pricy of course it's a seafood place in an airport you'll have to go elsewhere to find a bargain but I think it was 100 percent worth it. I always appreciate great staff and service in airports because aside from the tip they know chances are they'll never see you again. Should I be in BWI again I would definitely go back! read more

Anytime I'm strolling through the airport, I make it a point to grab a bite to eat and a nice glass of vino. Well I did just that! I ordered the Crab Dip with Pita bread and a glass of Altitude Chardonnay. Can you say scrumptious! Well...it was for sure. The service was great! Elizabeth provided great service and she made sure I was taken care of. She was very polite and I didn't have to ask for anything. She was very attentive and the vibe was pretty chill. The bar was just right.. I guess this is where my decreased intake plays a role because I barely ate anything, although the food was very tasty! If you're ever at BWI airport, and you're strolling through concourse D, I would said R&R Seafood would be the place to stop by! Until next time-Cheers! read more

I walked the wrong way in the bwi airport, and saw this place and decided to hang out for a bit to kill some time, they have a nice selection on the menu, and a number of different drinks. I'm a Bloody Mary fan, so of course I had to try the crabby Mary! It was very tasty! I loved the garnishing, and the flavor especially! They added some type of sea food seasoning to it which I had never had before and loved the flavor! If I ever have the time, I would certainly come back here to check out more food and drinks! The service was also great! read more

I'm not one to sit at an oyster bar or whatever at an airport. I usually have a very short time period before a flight and get something quick. But after the last two weeks I had I will be honest I really needed a treat and hopefully something decadent and tasty. This was it.. I walked up the the long bar, it went all the way around the space. Sat down, got a menu and was warmly greeted. I ordered a glass of Sauvignon Blanc which plays nicely with Crab Cakes. I've never been to the Baltimore, MD area and thought why not. I was grateful for the wine an it was as if my server knew what to say as I said many thanks and he said "You deserve it." I needed to hear that...I'm sure they deal with a great deal of weary travelers. Now when you order the crab cake it comes with a local bag of chips, crackers, lemon and they ask if you want cocktail sauce or tarter sauce. I'm partial to rémoulade on my crab cakes. Although they did not have it get the spicy aioli it's what you want. Granted the other stuff is house made but it's not for a crab cake. The crab cake sure it was a little smaller than I expected but it was full of crab and little filler and it was very savory. Everyone sitting around you is pretty chill as they may be waiting for a flight or a long layover and are usually pretty friendly or they keep to themselves. Staff is friendly, efficient and empathetic a plus. If you find yourself in this particular gate at the airport give it a whirl. They have other food too and freshly shucked oysters. Cheers read more

Seriously, you're known for crab cakes, and this is all you get for $30? What an absolute ripoff. This is supposed to be a dinner entree, GTFO with this weak crap. I'm sure you feel a bit dirty on the way to the bank. The crab cake itself is just alright. I've had far better. read more

Service was miserable! They had one poor lady try to serve entire bar and she was overwhelmed. Blackened salmon salad was superb!

Only restaurant in the airport that served any food past 8:00pm. That said, they only had two options from the entire menu available to order, chicken tenders or fish and chips. I ordered the chicken and they were surprisingly good and so were the fries. The coleslaw was just okay. Relatively reasonable price for airport food. It was $16. The service was relatively quick. They have many alcoholic drink options available. Bar seating and tables as well with TVs. read more

This was the absolute best crab dip I have ever had! With all the delays with flights, this made things better. I enjoyed the dip along with mimosas. The server was amazing and nice and quick! He kept coming back often to make sure I was ok. And to check if I needed anything else. Not much of an ambiance as it's the middle of an airport terminal. But it's a nice place!

Surprisingly good spot to grab dinner and drinks before a flight. There's a nice seating area with tables against a window with a view of the runway, in addition to a full bar. We snagged a table next to the window and ordered: - fish and chips- came out hot and fresh, fries a little under seasoned. The malt vinegar was watery - shrimp tacos- with the grilled shrimp. Came out cold but otherwise good - shrimp basket w fried shrimp and fries- standard butterflied shrimp, nothing not to like - big wave ipa - light drinkable ipa - house Chardonnay - ok a bit harsh - chalk hill Chardonnay - enjoyed this - house Cabernet- ok Overall a very enjoyable airport meal! read more

I haven't really tried the food here but this is my go-to for drinks when leaving out of A12-16 at BWI. Service is always on par and right in the middle of all those gates so you don't kiss any announcements. Ambience is what to be expected in the middle of terminal. read more

Come on, this is an airport bar with bar food. If you know what to get this place is great! Get the shrimp. Get the bloody Mary. Beers are a safe bet. They have a few High Noon type cans that are always safe. They do run out of stuff. But consider the other options and stop whining... My bar tender was servicing the entire half of the bar, probably 50 customers. Five stars! read more

BWI seems to have lots of solid food options, but I was craving crabcakes and oysters and this was a great choice. It wasn't cheap ($23) but the quality of crab meat was high and I felt merited the price. The cocktail sauce also tasted homemade and not from the jar. I also sprung for the oyster shooter (when in Rome). I liked the flavor profile, but felt there was too much vodka relative to the other ingredients. Bonus points for 20 oz drafts for $7-8. The menu is small, but if you're wanting that last dose of seafood, it's a great bet. There are also a few more affordable options like fish tacos under $15. read more

We had a long delay in the airport and luckily this bar was right next to our gate. Thought we'd just sit for one drink but ended up staying a whole 4 hours. The server was friendly and fun, definitely a good bartender personally. He served up good drinks and shucked the oysters. Maybe not high end restaurant shucking, but I didn't get shell and that's a big plus, and they tasted clean and fresh. Shrimp cocktail was also very good. I think we had 4 orders while hanging out trying to make the most of a Bad situation. Luckily the A&M basketball game was on. Definitely a nicer place to be instead of gate seating! read more

Visited this place while waiting for the flight. Was hoping for a quick service that one would expect from a facility in the airport. Well, that's not the case here. It took way over 5 minutes for the staff to take our order even though (1) it wasn't busy, (2) we sat at the bar. 5 minutes might not sound like a big deal but when you have 25 min left u til your boarding starts, every minute counts! Then it took another 20 min to get the order even though we weren't looking for complex, long-prep food. So the boarding started, we just got good, that means we have 5-10min tops to "enjoy" it. The food was ok, maybe 6-7/10 which sounds sufficient for a restaurant. read more

I had a one hour layover and this seafood bar was found in the Southwest terminal of BWI .. it was just that.. a bar with seafood. .The blackboard at the bar listed different types of oysters available and the menu consisted of only a few items but i didn't pay much attention because i was there for only one reason, a Maryland Crab cake. No further questions asked, i ordered and It came with saltines and a small bag of chips. Not a very large cake, but sufficient for my tasting. There were very large pieces of crabmeat inside and i found it to be delightful. I was satisfied, even with the hefty price of $21, soon to be $23 i was told. (Thats a whole nother story) Would i do this again? Probably not but when in Maryland.. you gotta have the crab. read more
