Polar Express Woonsocket

The Blackstone Valley Polar Express Train Ride has the ticket to Christmas memories that will last a lifetime.  For nearly 20 years, the Blackstone Valley Tourism Council has produced a family favorite holiday train excursion filled with Christmas experiences unlike any other. Their Blackstone Valley Polar Express attraction, based on the book The Polar Express written in 1985 by author Chris Van Allsburg, who lived in Rhode Island, has become a must-see tradition for families young and old.

A trip on the Express starts at the Woonsocket Train Depot, which was built in 1882 and looks as if it was pulled from a storybook. Clad in old-fashioned Christmas decorations, the depot has model trains for children to play with outside, a doorman dressed in top hat and tails to greet passengers, and immediately sets the stage for an imaginative ride.

Lops Brewery - Local

The home of Lops Brewing began construction in February 2019. The tasting room is located on the first floor and the brewery in the basement of a building built in 1891. Both spaces were completely rehabilitated while keeping some of the original features of the space. Historical highlights include the original brick along the north wall, large eye latches above the bar, original stone basement walls, and a bar top crafted from original reclaimed wood floor.   At Lops Brewing, they specialize in small batch beer, using the freshest ingredients possible. This means our beer list is constantly changing.

      Ciro's Tavern & The Famous Hampton Court 

Pomodoro's Sister Restaurant, Ciro's Tavern is an old English style pub/tavern serving a wide range of  made from scratch foods.   Its multi-floor features historic architectures for a unique experience and  and its outdoor courtyard patio attracts customers from all over the Blackstone Valley.


 Its History - In 1893 the Mee family, proprietors of a bottling company fulfilling bourbon and Ales for New York distilleries set forth to expand their business going into retail. Building a four-story building containing a retail liquor store on the first floor, the second floor a home for family members who managed the store, and the third and fourth floors to accommodate immigrants coming into America for new opportunities. Business thrived until prohibition forcing closure and property changing hands until post-prohibition where the store turned into a bar by a local Irish politician calling it Uncle’s Café. The upper levels became rundown and the boarding rooms became a brothel. It wasn’t until a new entrepreneur Evo “Curly” Donnini & his wife Martha took over in 1962 with a vision to build a highend food & wine establishment using King Henry VIII Palace of Hampton Court for its Tudor style as its inspiration with a budget of over one-million dollars to rehab the building in its entirety, now receiving architectural design awards for its design.        https://www.cirostavern.com
