There's no food here. It's a bar. Unless I'm missing something. It's become tradition to stop here before flying. I made some good friends here. I had a weird request for the bartender: a vasectomy. Only asked because they had the Deadpool edition of aviation gin. So the bartender didn't make it before. Showed him the recipe and he did a great job. The bartenders have always been attentive, hard work and helpful for recommendations. Ambience... is a cocktail bar at the airport. It's nice, clean, and full of random people looking to escape life for a while. Overall, if it wasn't good, it wouldn't be a tradition. read more

Traveltini Martini Bar - Vasectomy - Lounges Near Me - Windsor Locks, Connecticut

Kimberly does an excellent job hosting travelers wherever they are coming from or going. Great wine list and the cocktails are superb.

One of the best airport martini's I have ever had. Ask for Kim for a good pour and no less than 50 shakes!! read more

Traveltini Martini Bar - Goose Martini - Lounges Near Me - Windsor Locks, Connecticut

The food is good, the spring rolls, just the right amount of spice. I enjoyed the blood orange spritz, just my taste in mix. The waitress is very nice. I had plenty of time because of a 6-hour flight delay. She didn't rush me. However, they don't take the disruption vouchers from Aer Lingus. She says that venues that serve alcohol don't take the voucher. It puts a damper on things. Would I come back? Absolutely, but I rarely come to the airport hours before a flight. Cheers! read more

Traveltini Martini Bar - a blue chair in front of the bar - Lounges Near Me - Windsor Locks, Connecticut

Adult refreshments galore. Our bartender was very personable and we had a fun time passing some time, while waiting for our plane.

Bartender can't be bothered to get off his phone and the prices are ridiculous. $21 for a martini and no olives!

Best service, great drinks. Sophia was amazing! Real rock star! She stayed 1 hour after closing time because of our delayed flight!

Had a bit of time to kill and was so impressed with my visit here. The bar tender basically handled the whole place with the help of a bar back. Granted it wasn't crazed, but airport bars are a bit of an oddity so I was definitely impressed. Also her old fashioned... guys. Top notch. I was "lucky" enough to have someone who had quite a few sit down next to me and the bar tender handled his situation with tact. I was impressed. They had cheese/meat boards and some other snacks but I didn't partake. If you have some downtime at BDL, stop on in for a great old fashioned! read more

Great spot to have a bite to eat before your flight and watch the game! Great service!!

It was the between time. The gray 60 minutes with no obligations other than waiting: between the angst of getting to the airport and through security... and ultimately boarding the plane. The bartender at Traveltini was a colloquial woman who seemed as if she'd been plucked out of a rundown neighborhood bar. She was comfortable. She chatted with the assortment of travelers at the bar - all men except one. They discussed smoking (one of them was puffing on an electric cigarette) and politics. One guest chauvinistically told her step-by-step how to make his Bloody Mary. She was the only employee but she easily served her patrons. We each ordered a glass of wine. The prices were all moderate and the pours were fair. We sat at a low table along the wall where we had access to electrical outlets, a view of the bar, and two of the discretely mounted televisions. The physical space of Traveltini is thoughtfully decorated to be sleek and efficient. Besides two or three low tables, the only seating is at the bar. Spending our 60 minutes at Traveltini was preferable to waiting at the gate. I might try one of their martinis one day; however, none of them caught my eye this time. read more

The best way to head off from Bradley, the staff are super friendly and the drinks are amazing. I had the best Bloody Mary prior to my flight to Orlando which made the delay worth while. read more

Traveltini Martini Bar - Bloody Mary - Lounges Near Me - Windsor Locks, Connecticut

This is the best option for a top shelf cocktail at BDL hands down. Great atmosphere and very friendly staff with a nice bar area and a few tables scattered around if you need a place to relax and a little more privacy to get some work done or have a phone conversation. Not much in food offerings (cheese tray and crackers) but they do allow you to bring in your own food and they also recommend walking across the terminal and grabbing a sandwich at D'Angelo's (if there is line waiting for food you can also call from the bar place your order for pickup). Hopefully Jill S is tending bar when you arrive she's awesome! read more

If you want a drink to help you relax before your flight, this is the place to go. The appletini is very refreshing, and the seats are very comfy to just sit, relax. And unwind in. It makes your airport experience far more enjoyable. Well worth the $12-$14 per drink, and an excellent way to start your vacation. read more

Traveltini Martini Bar - Kettle One martini with fruit - Lounges Near Me - Windsor Locks, Connecticut

Traveltini opened recently at the airport. It is located across from Black Bear Saloon. The ambiance is nice and upscale and there is excellent seating to the side of the bar in addition to at the bar. The bar stools, however, do not feel very stable to me. The martinis are pricey but good. I ordered a dirty martini with blue cheese stuffed olives and was happy with it. read more

I love this little spot. It's small and quaint with a few tables, pretty good size bar, and plugs for all your electronics. I'm not too impressed with the drinks or selection, but it does the job. read more

Good selection, quiet atmosphere, self consumed - and electronics consumed - patrons (not a bad thing, especially at an airport), decent prices (not that I'm paying) and a charismatic, efficient, pretty bartender! (Jill) What more could you ask for? A coworker and I dropped in because we saw another coworker sitting at the bar. We were happily surprised, especially after the other nearby establishment we had just left. The liquors are mid to top shelf and the beer is .. well, they had exactly what I wanted so I was happy. From where I'm sitting, I see both Sam seasonal and Boston Lager, UFO, Bud, Heineken and Corona - and way too may liquors to list. Final verdict? Stop here if you have some extra time! Actually, plan some extra time because it's a great wind down before you head out. (And if you see a smiling brown eyed brunette running the place, absolutely drop in!) read more

If you are looking for a great selection of cocktails at Bradley this is the place to sit down. Very nice atmosphere and the bartender was very helpful and pleasant as well. As Dave indicated this is not were you want to eat so bring your food with you from the food court. read more

Nice little martini bar with excellent service close to Terminals 21-30 in Bradley. Bradley only has two places to grab a drink, (and none in the direct terminal areas). This one has beers, martinis, and wine. I had a good gose. Overall, this is a good place to grab a drink before your flight. Also there are PokeStops nearby. read more

A martini bar at Bradley?! YES! Finally! It's comfortable and human. (Well, in my definition of human.) The crowd was chill and the martinis chillier still. There wasn't a bottle of beer in sight, and for that I was grateful. Seeing a group of frat guys wearing university t-shirts ordering 'a round of sweet shots' showed me that stereotypes are just that...stereotypes. Bradley, you've done me proud. read more

I am sitting at the bar now trying my hardest not to be disappointed in everything this bartender is doing. I am a bartender myself, and a passionate one at that. Our bartender was not rude but very short with her responses and uninterested, despite our friendly hello and attempt to engage with her. Currently she is texting on her phone in the corner. To start, she asked "what do you want" to which we replied 'a drink menu.' I am hoping she is new, because when my boyfriend asked what was on tap, she could not recall the whopping 4 draft beers. I asked for the Pink Skies martini. "I actually don't remember what is in that" she said as she took the drink menu from in front of me to look at the ingredients. It's too sweet, needs a little citrus if it's going to be perfected. Another couple sat next to us. The gentleman ordered a basil Hayden on the rocks and a water, his wife ordered a glass of red wine which was poured into a wine glass covered in finger prints and water marks. The woman noticed this and asked for a clean glass. As a professional bartender, had this situation occurred with myself (it wouldn't have, though..) I would have made sure to wipe down (buff) a new wine glass for her. Jennifer (just got the chance to read her name tag) grabbed another wine glass, held it up to the light, placed it front of the woman, and asked if it was ok, still smeared with fingerprints and watermarks. Seeing her displeasure, Jennifer began to buff the glass and dump the wine into it, while explaining that they hand wash the glasses so they all have water spots on them from drying. Time to lean, time to clean... Instead of texting, ten minutes could be spent buffing the glasses and the problem would have never arisen. The professionalism of this girl blows my mind. I work hard for my money as a bartender, and poor Jennifer could obviously care less if we are enjoying our drinks or our time here. Being restaurant people, we are inclined to be awesome tippers, to those deserving of it. It would be insulting to my own personal hard work to tip this girl at all. I'm sure she will be pissed when we leave, because she is just expecting the money to come. But as a bartender, you should engage with your clientele, especially at an airport!!! What a chance she has to meet characters and talk to people. I thought maybe she was studying with a notebook in the corner while texting, but now I see it is a magazine she is flipping through. Better luck next time, Jennifer. You either need to find a passion for your job or get out of the service industry. I fly frequently and this has by far been the most disappointing bar trip ever. read more

Traveltini Martini Bar - This is Jennifer in her prime. I'm trying to finish my subpar $13 martini... - Lounges Near Me - Windsor Locks, Connecticut

Great bartender and nice selection of cocktails and beers. Pricey as you expect to pay in an airport, but a comfortable place to relax between flights. However the hours are short and with very few places to get a beer in the Hartford airport, try to get there early. read more

Typical overpriced airport bar that advertises food but only serves potato chips, but Jill was awesome and made it worthwhile.

Nice waitress very friendly, drinks were on point. If you are looking for a good wind down spot I would suggest this place

Great, quick service. Perfect spot for airport drinking :)
