TRAVEL OPTIONS

From The Northeast Corridor Via Rail:

Within the Northeast region the easiest method of transportation is via rail. For attendees coming from Washington D.C., New York, Philadelphia, Boston, and other parts of New England with rail access, New Haven Union Station is serviced by Metro-North Railroad to and from Manhattan’s Grand Central Station and Harlem-125th Street Station, as well as Amtrak with easy access from all metropolitan areas in New England.

 

Outside The Northeast By Air, Flying Into Connecticut:

Flying by air is inconvenient unless you fly directly into Tweed New Haven Airport. Attendees may take a taxi or Lyft from Tweed New Haven Airport to the hotel or conference location. Summit attendees may want to compare the length of the itinerary of flying into Bradley International Airport in Hartford, CT or New York City which do not have direct public transportation access to New Haven.

DINNER IN NEW HAVEN

Go out and get dinner after the summit and experience our foodie city!  New Haven is best known for its apizza or "ahbeets".  The most famous pizzerias on Wooster Street, Pepe's and Sally's, will have a long wait.  Pepe's white clam pizza consistently gets ranked as the best pizza in the US.  Modern Apizza on upper State Street will also have a wait, but it is bigger, and the wait isn't as long.  The other pizza option is BAR that does a more modern, hip version of New Haven pizza and they take reservations, and brew their own beer.  They are known for their mashed potato bacon pie.  New Haven is also allegedly the site of the first hamburger, Louis' Lunch.  They cook their patties in the original cast iron grills and no condiments allowed.  There will also be a line to get in and they don't have much seating, but they are open until 2am.  There are numerous other exceptional restaurants in New Haven, and we recommend making reservations for Friday and Saturday nights, if possible.  Here are some more recommendations, Olmo, Soul de Cuba, Zinc, Shell and Bones, olea, Roia, Prime 16, Heirloom, August, and L'Orcio.
