All Aboard the Cocktail Train at Tony C’s Bar & Grill

Wickford's new Tony C's offers railway-inspired drinks

Posted

All aboard! The new Tony C’s Bar & Grill at Wickford Junction has 13 new exciting railway-inspired cocktails ready to tempt you. The former Junction Bistro reopened in February with a new name, a new menu and a new energy. Owner, John Cioe named the restaurant after his brother Anthony, who died too young. He says, “Tony C’s is about cherishing the good times while they last.” With live music, cocktails and a tasty new menu, Tony C’s is a great spot to enjoy life.

Since Tony C’s is located adjacent to the Wickford Junction Commuter Rail Station, General Manager Mark Chase named each of the 13 signature cocktails after a stop on the rail route. The cocktails go from Wickford Junction (a gin martini) to South Station (the house version of a Moscow Mule) and hit all of the stops in between. The Hyde Park sounds positively sinful with Oreo infused vanilla vodka, Godiva chocolate liqueur, Tres Leches liqueur, marshmallow and a Double Stuf Oreo. There is even a gluten-free martini available called The Sharontini (see the recipe listed below).

The food menu is equally as inventive. Take the standard hamburger for example. Tony C’s Cuban Burger is a 1/2 pound hamburger served on a house-made ciabatta, pretzel or bulky roll and pressed with ham, swiss cheese, sliced pickle and topped with a secret Cuban sauce. For a side, try the Hell’s Fire Fries, topped with buffalo sauce and blue cheese. 1051 Ten Rod Road Unit 7, North Kingstown, 294-4400, www.tony-cs.com
