Couple more 94th Aero Squadrons for you.. Columbus (CMH) on Sawyer Road near the ARFF station and Greenbelt/Riverdale Maryland, near the Capitol Park Airport. There is a great little museum there, on the site of what makes a claim of being the oldest active airport in the world. Go down on a Sunday and grab brunch, then check out the museum.

If anyone is ever in Daytona Beach, take a drive up Interstate 95 to Flagler County Airport (XFL). There is a restaurant called Hijackers (really bad irony?). The food is great. It's a hamburger french fries kind of place. Obviously that's not all they serve. It is right on airport grounds on the fence for the ramp. People actually fly in just for the restaurant.
As for the 56 Fighter Group Restaurant at FRG, that is on my list to eat there one day.
Went up to Albany area last weekend and ate lunch at Control Tower Icecream. This place has your typical ice cream joint type food and then some. They also have panini sandwiches that have aviation themed names (The Red Baron, The Boeing, The Cessna). Excellent food and decent prices too! Its right on Route 7 at the end of Runway 1 overlooking the approach for Runway 19. Below are a few shots showing the view. They're not the best shots, but they get the point across.

There was a free website that listed restaurant recommendations for whatever airport you wanted ala $100 Hamburger one. I cannot seem to be able to find it thou :(
If you like great pancakes, Sky Acres (44N). Open Thursday-Sunday. Great fly-in spot!
Locally, in my area, I enjoy going over to Plymouth, MA, especially during the summer to catch some GA stuff and have lunch at Plane Jane's, a hamburger, pizza, sub establishment. http://www.planejanesplace.com/ Second floor outside deck has a great overview of this small airport.
This was taken from inside the Collings Foundation B-24 looking out at the tower/restaurant building.
