Waldo Peppers Moving!!!

[Hermit Cover]

Breaking News!!!! Leave it to the LDS to scoop the WSJ, NYT, WP, and the MUL......Pepper's is leaving the Weirs and will relocate to Gilford on the lot that had been Nader's Auto World. Seating for 100 and lots of parking....and most importantly a varied menu, family restaurant serving THREE meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner.....Yippee!!!! Bruce and Barbara Foster (Our Waldo and Pepper)..are brilliant. What a coup....'Waldo Peppers' will surely serve as a "restaurant anchor" to the growing development that is taking place on that corner of of our region. How exciting is this???....way to go Bruce and Barbara. Stay tuned...........

[Skip]

[Island Life]

You know what would make me order from there A LOT? If they delivered to the Glendale Public Docks.

[Silver Duck]

Bruce & Barbara are great folks, and Waldo Pepper's is one of my favorite places.

While I'll miss the current Waldo Pepper's, I look forward to enjoying the new location even more!

Best of luck to them! I think that we should all plan on giving them one heck of an opening day once the new place is ready.

[NHskier]

My wife and I will very much miss Waldo Peppers at the Weirs as it was just a quick walk from our slip at Thurstons. But I certainly can understand the advantages of location, traffic, and seasonality. And no doubt we'll still be stopping by for the best lobster roll around. Yum

Best wishes for the new location!

[phoenix]

so when will the move happen??

[Pepper]

Well we are thrilled to see that you are all happy for us! We are, needless to say, extremely excited about this wonderful new location where we will be able to offer a truly family-dining experience.

This has all been made possible because we have joined forces with our dear friends, Janet and Walter Hutchinson, who are our partners in this new endeavor. This has been a dream for all four of us for some time now, and we are truly blessed to have this dream come to fruition.

We have a lot of work ahead of us as we undertake renovations on the building, therefore it is impossible to give an exact date when we will open. Obviously we hope to open as soon as possible.

More than anything, we want to thank all of you for your years of loyal support and friendship, and we look forward to bringing you even more of what you've come to expect from Waldo Peppers!

[secondcurve]

I'm not that familiar with the area they are relocating to. Is it within walking distance to Glendale? We used to take the boat over to Weirs for lunch at the old location. Not sure if this will be possible at the new location.

[Argie's Wife]

What a smart move! We're jazzed!!

Congrats on your continued success!

It would be a long walk... This is down near the Wendy's and shopping plazas just past the bypass, heading towards Laconia. A few miles away from the docks.

[wMw]

Seems like a great business decision...and Janet is one of my favorite people in the Weirs. You are heading to a very good location with great partners.

Oh, but I am going to miss being able to walk up from my house in the Weirs. Couldn't you consider becoming a small chain of 2 awesome eateries?

Best of luck!

wMw

[Waterbaby]

Pepper, will you be keeping the original location open until the new place opens, or are all efforts being geared to Gilford?

Best of luck to you all in the new place -- this should make it a lot easier for a lot of people to find you!

[GWC...]

Here's Google's version of the new location...

P.S.- Convenient to Lowe's, too...

[SAMIAM]

Great move,you guys. Best of luck and call if you need anything.With the economy they way it is,that kind of operation should do very well....especially considering the great meals you put out.

[Pepper]

SecondCurve - it would indeed be a very long walk! The new location is just east of the Laconia Savings Bank across from Walmart Plaza.

Argie's Wife - Yup! We're jazzed too!

wMw - and all our other loyal customer's in the Weirs - we're sad that we must leave you, but it is truly a matter of survival in a neighborhood with continually declining traffic.

Sam - you're always there for your friends. You've been so much help over the years, and it's nice to know we can always call you for guidance! You rock.

[codeman671]

I am very excited. We typically end up at the Diner for a quick meal when going onshore for groceries, there is not much in that area without going further down into Laconia.

I think the other woman in my life, as my wife calls her (Wendy's) will miss me greatly

Now if you can only get it up and running by ice out

[hazelnut]

YES! Now we have a place to eat when we do our regular WAL-MART trips. In the summer we usually come "off island/off boat" once a week to head to "Wally World." Peppers is now going to be even more of a reason to make those trips!

Last time Pepper spoiled my twins with cookies after lunch. She definitely knows the way to win them over. Great marketing idea get the kids to love it and you know they'll be back! Oh yeah the food is really good too!

[Newbiesaukee]

Well, it is a little longer for Mrs. N and me, but nothing worth it is easy. Besides, it gives me a destination for the required "ride around the lake" when we have guests ( which seems like all the time). Best of luck on the new venture.

[Gatto Nero]

Will the plane be making the flight over to the new location?

[pmj]

Oh this is the best news! That area so needs family owned and operated restaurants. I am very excited and happy for you, Pepper! Best of luck.

[sa meredith]

Well, I certainly can see the move as a step forward for them. Congratulations!
But I will miss the lobster roll...I could easily pass by on my way to the Marina, late on Friday mornings. I'm sure business will be much better in the new location. The Weirs area...there's a topic all unto itself. I read something earlier in this thread that seemed so appropriate...something like "you have only 12 weeks to make it as a business in the Weirs area" (something to that effect). And it make so much sense. It seems, at times, travelling thru that area, one might even considered "depressed"or "run down". Soooooo different (yet so much alike) than I remember, as a kid in the 70's, visiting with my parents for vacation each summer. There would be crowds everywhere. It's like, the place never changed with the times. The land that time forgot type stuff.
Look at Wolfeboro...it's old, but like a mint condition classic car, it has great appeal. The Weirs is just plain old!

[RI Swamp Yankee]

I was at The Weirs area in February (school vacation week) and it was desolate. I knew WP was open this Winter so "where to eat" was not a question. What to eat was problematic, so many good choices. While looking over the menu I commented to my wife that I had heard the pulled pork was good. A young man in front of me hear that, turned around and said "the pulled pork is awesome man". Problem solved. I also just had to try the onion rings so it was a (big) half sandwich and rings. The pulled pork was excellent with a really good BBQ sauce. The rings were excellent too. Now my list of favorites is longer. I think hot buttered Lobsta is still at the top though.

While I will miss the old location (us Swamp Yankees don't take change easily) I know I will find the new location. Best of luck to "Waldo" and "Pepper" on the new location.

[Pepper]

To answer a few questions:

We have already ceased operation in the Weirs.

Yes, the plane will be making the move to Gilford with us! Ya just can't have Waldo's without the plane!

And to all, we are so excited about this new location, and are glad to see that so many of you are, too!

[Hermit Cover]

to start getting excited about getting the Forum Fest-ers together for a Summer Kickoff ( A time to say hello to the new Fest-ers anxious to get together with the old timers)....Now....If We Only Had A Really Great and NEW place to gather.....Hmmm...Let us think about that one!???? We'd probably need a place with at least 90+ seats....and food for the Winter-Weary....Sunshine-Starved Fest-ers. Let's give this some thought.....Where....Where???

I haven't been yet but this would give me doubly purr-fect excuses to make the trip up!

I hope you don't mind, I'm going to "jump the gun" a bit and start a thread on General about this -- and refer to your post here............. perhaps get some people interested, and ask for location suggestions.......... I really am not sure how to organize this but I have a feeling I'll end up doing it by default, lol.

Hi Pepper,

Nancy and I look forward to seeing you. We both wish you the very best for health, happiness, and success!

[Lin]

Congratulations Waldo and Pepper on the new move. Can't wait to try breakfast there!! We will be by to visit for sure.

[Lexxi]

Your theme song should be the one from the "Mary Tyler Moore Show"........We're going to make it after all..........

Congrats on your expansion! We will see you there !!!!!

Good Luck

I have to work two jobs to make it up here, but I'll take the peepers, bear, moose, lakes, mountains, fresh air, great schools, and great place to raise my kids over what I left in Philadelphia 15 years ago. Then again, I worked 60-70 hour weeks climbing the corporate ladder in Philly - might as well have been 2 jobs.

Living here IS my brass ring.

I absolutely agree! I left Philadelphia just one year before you, and wouldn't return if someone offered me all the money in the world! My brass ring is the quality of life here!

I certainly agree that the intangible "quality of life" certainly seems better in NH than Philadelphia / NYC.

Less crime, less people, less...craziness.

I've seen most of America, and areas I've visited and considered worth settling down in included:

Lakes Region

Boulder / Nederland Colorado

Taos, New Mexico

Portland / Eugene.

All offer a great Quality of Life, but how does one support himself / herself upon relocation? ...That's the question.

Well first off if you leave Oregon you'll save the 9% state income tax, NH has zero. When I work for the oscilloscope guys, they all drooled over that. As I remember property taxes in Portland are no picnic either. So if you're working you can take home the same money on less salary here. Of course if you're retired NH will no look so good.

You are correct.

But I do not live or work in Portland, although I hang out there a lot and take full advantage of the myriad cultural and other offerings of that absolutely wonderful city.

I live and work across the Columbia River from Portland, in Clark county, Washington.

There is no income tax here in Washington, therefore I pay no income tax.

Now, as luck would have it, Oregon (a mile or two away from my home, as the sea lion swims) has no sales tax.

I shop for all but the least expensive items in Oregon, and therefore pay little or no sales tax.

Thus, like you folk in NH, I pay no income tax and (essentially) no sales tax.

But what about that bane of us all, the real property tax?

That's the best of all ... (wait for it...) ... we have great, fully funded schools, superior city and county services, and my locale has a low real property tax rate.

Most of the money for government service comes from the state coffers, which is funded by income tax, of which I pay little or none.

Yeah, living on the border of Washington and Oregon and then milking the cow for free has its benefits.

Did I tell you that the Quality of Life here is to die for?

We all make our choices...

[Mr. V]

S/B "sales tax," not "income tax."

oops

[Dave M]

Pepper, maybe you ought to sell some of the Taskykakes,etc at a counter in your restaurant. Similar to buying pastry at some of the restaurants for breakfast.

Dave M

[twoplustwo]

I was in Yeadon before we moved up here, and was all over the place from West Philly (while they burned down MOVE and everything around it, oy) to Ardmore for a few. I'm a St. Joe's grad and suffered through a law firm, a small software developer, and several looong years at the Philly Stock Exchange before I traded in suits and Aigner bags for hiking boots and jeans. I like the jeans a lot better

I can't wait until you open up the new place, I want to pop in and say hi

[Pepper]

Yo!

I'm from Prospect Park! We're old neighbors!!!

I had my share of stress jobs there, too. Law firm, Smith Barney, Glenmede, and Sunoco. I took advantage of Sun's first voluntary severance package and never looked back!

There's only one thing I miss from home ...
Federal Street Pretzels.

[Mr. V]

Did someone say Philadelphia soft pretzels?

Crave no more!

http://www.atasteofphilly.com/

[twoplustwo]

Wow, small world!! I do miss pretzels, and Amoroso's rolls, and cannoli from Termini's at the Reading Terminal Market. I don't miss the fiberglass seats at JFK Stadium that left your backside itching after a Dead or Neil Young show or a ride on the 69th Street El. They got rid of JFK, now if they'd get rid of the El!!

[Pepper]

Wow, the El. Haven't thought about that in a lot of years!

I can help you with the craving for Amoroso's rolls, though! Come see me after we open, and I'll introduce you to Quinzani's bread. It's as close as you'll ever get this far away. We can sit and have a cheesesteak together. * You can have it wit or witout. You'll be happy. Trust me.

* ya gotta be from Philly to understand that part...

[twoplustwo]

I'm a wit girl, I even like Whiz wit, although I'm partial to American! My ex husband says I bastardize the cheesesteak by putting mayo on it. I have to have Heinz and Hellman's, it's my cheesesteak way!

[Pepper]

Whizwit, Heinz and Hellman's. No problem.

How about a Frank's Black Cherry Wishniak and some Herr's to go with that?

[Pepper]

... and Jelly Krimpets for dessert!

[SIKSUKR]

You can hold the whiz and the mayo.I'll take mine spread with Peppers infectious personality please.Boy can I lay it on thick!

[Pepper]

Hold on, I need to go get my waders ...

[Pepper]

Butterscotch Krimpets ROCK!

Now if we're going to confession here, I must confess that every time I drive down to visit family I come home with a cooler filled with Porkroll and Scrapple. Beside that in the back of the car is usually a large grocery bag full of various Tastykakes.

OMG sounds like me. I am originally from NJ and we always take about 5 coolers down with us-stock up on pork roll, tastycakes, Wawa ice tea, cold cuts, rolls, etc. We even wrap up pizza in foil and ziplocs to bring back. We really stock up. That is all we miss is some of the food-nothing else. Too funny-hubby and I are not the only one who stock up

I am partial to Butterscotch tastycakes but I also like the mint candy Tastycakes too

We are looking forward to you opening your new place-hopefully you will make Mem Day


Nicole

[Loony Singer]

oh boy...here we go. I grew up in Upper Darby and later Villanove. As I write this, the freezer has a couple boxes of Butterscotch Krimpets in it, plus my all-time fave, Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes. They made me what I am today (for better or worse). I remember way back when you couldn't get em in the summer cuz the chocolate coating would melt. Oh, and there are a couple Taylor Pork Rolls in there, too. The really, really good news is that you can now get a limited selection of TastyCakes at Market Basket, at least the ones in the Boston area. Don't know about the big one in Tilton, but I'd bet they have 'em too.

[Merrymeeting]

When you guys get back to speaking NH english, can you let us know?

[Waterbaby]

I LOVE mayo on my cheesesteak................ Thought I was the only person in NH that does! And what is the "whiz" part, is that cheesewhiz?

[twoplustwo]

I love Herr's! But I prefer my Krimpets in Butterscotch form. I actually have a couple of boxes in the kitchen - my mother mails them to me. Yes, embarassing but true. My mother mails me Butterscotch Krimpets because she knows I miss them. You'd never know I'm 44 years old

Siksukr, that deserves an award or something. Are you on Pepper's payroll??

[SIKSUKR]

Yup.I get paid with an emotional paycheck.

[ghfromaltonbay]

Gee, if I make my twice a month commutes from NJ to Alton Bay, maybe I can start a delivery service for Taylor Ham (as we call it in north jersey) and other delicacies. Pepper, I even brought some pork roll for DRH and Quilt Lady to try when you had the Waldo Pepper spring opening party in 2006. It was a first for them.

When I took my early exit from Verizon I toyed with the idea of starting a business sending ex-Jerseyites the delicacies they missed. I pictured a toll free # 1-800-I-MISS-NJ and shipping the goods packed in dry ice. Shortly after that an article in the paper showed 2 South Jersey women who had started a business shipping pork roll all over the USA to those who missed it.

In that vein, I did meet a man from CT at the Moultonborough Country Store who was buying several large orders of the cheddar cheese. He said he made a monthly trek and brought orders back home for friends and neighbors.

[Pepper]

Loony Singer - welcome to the secret cult!

I was having lunch one day in the breakroom at work, and noticed someone opening a dessert. The packaging was clear plastic, and the object within was clearly recognizable to me. I said to him "is that a Tastykake Creme-filled cupcake package?" He looked at me wide-eyed and said "Yes! How did you know that?" Turns out he'd been at Drexel for five years, and developed at taste for them. Then while wandering the aisles at Market Basket somewhere near Dover he spotted them on an endcap and nearly lost his mind! As yet I haven't seen them in the Tilton Market Basket, but I have put in a request to the management there.

On occassion I have also been able to find Scrapple in the freezer section at Vista on South Main Street in Laconia. Of course, it's not Habbersett's, but when you're this far from the source you can't be choosy.


Now the really exciting news is that Taylor Ham (porkroll) can be found at TWO local establishments here - The Gourmet Barn on Rte 3 in Lochmere, and at our beloved Wine'ing Butcher as well! The owners of the Gourmet Barn (known to many as Between-the-Bagel) are originally from Jersey, and have always had this as part of their menu. Not at all sure how the folks at the Wine'ing butcher found out about the stuff, but I'm darned glad they did!

now I'm hungry ...

[wifi]

Heaths, in Center Harbor used to carry Taylor Ham (porkroll) until about a month ago, then it disappeared from the shelves, BUT, I did locate a good supply at Hunters (Wolfeboro)

[twoplustwo]

They're Tandy Kakes! I don't know why they ever renamed them, but darn it, they are Tandy Kakes! Taylor Pork Roll fried up real nice with a side of scrambled eggs, mmmm mmmm!!

I think we need to have a Philly/Jersey reunion at Pepper's and clog our arteries together

[twoplustwo]

GH - my ex (also lives here in MBoro) travels a ton for business, and he's from right near Metuchen. He's been known to drive back up with a ton of burgers from White Castle (AKA, 'a sack of rats' or ratburgers) because the frozen ones just aren't the same. Not a regional delicacy as I define it, but further proof that the very last thing that leaves home is your taste buds

[Loony Singer]

Not that I've ever been desperate enough to use it, but it's comforting to know it's there:

http://www.atasteofphilly.com

Kinda pricey, though...

[Pepper]

Dave M - we've often thought about it, and researched it. As of yet we haven't found a supplier in the area that will sell to small establishments. Gotta buy in huge numbers, and we couldn't make that work.

Loony Singer - my thoughts exactly when I visited their site many years ago. Somebody's making a ton of $$ on that site!

[phoenix]

Pepper is it going to get pretty hot under that quilt as the summer hits us

[twoplustwo]

Yup, it's Cheese Whiz. You had to order whiz wit - Cheese Whiz and fried onions after a night of college partying was so very fine

[mcdude]

Pepper: Some friendly competition? Friends of yours?
New Restaurant to be called KITCHEN CRAVINGS

Currently the Bickfords are in the process of converting the old bank building off Lakeshore Road. The building has sat vacant for the last 10 years but Sally noted once they took a walk through, they immediately saw its potential.

When it is all said and done, Kitchen Cravings will have indoor seating for 54 patrons and a full kitchen constructed out of the old drive-up awning. Not just the indoor atmosphere, with historic photos from Gilford prominently displayed, the Bickfords plan to take full advantage of the nice weather and their surroundings.

[Pepper]

Wicked nice people! I had the opportunity to meet them at the Nadia's auction, and wish them the very best. They're putting their heart and soul into that property, and it's lookin' good!

[IslandSib]

Hey Pepper...
When are you opening...I have yet to be up and want to make sure I dont miss your opening....
Also will there be outside seating in case somone brought a four legged friend.

[Pepper]

IslandSib - we're working like mad to get open as soon as possible. Hopefully in two weeks!

To answer your other question the answer is YES. There will be outdoor picnic tables overlooking the stream - it's quite pretty out there.

I'll post a better update as all the pieces start coming together.

[SAMIAM]

Saw your "opening soon" sign,Pepper.......can't wait to stop in.I'll bet that the new location will be a huge success for you.Best of luck.

[SIKSUKR]

Went by the new location yesterday and did not see the plane.It was a little sad to see the plane missing from the old WP's also.

[jetskier]

I heard that the airlines have offered her a newer plane as they are becoming un-economical due to fuel prices. Likely a 747.

We drove by this weekend and saw that the sign is up. It looks like a bit more work inside and some outside work is all that is needed.

We drove by the new location this morning and the plane is still there, sitting on the left side of the property with the wings removed. The view of it from the road is mostly blocked by a large white truck, but it's still there!

[gtxrider]

Pepper I hope you open up on time since I am driving up 2 weeks from tomorrow! Jonesing for a LOBSTAH roll!

[SIKSUKR]

Thanks DRH.I probably didn't see it cuz of the wings removed.I'll; be there in 2 weeks and hope she's flying again with an open sign on it!

[jetskier]

You can only see a portion of the tail behind the truck on the left side of the building...but it is there.

The outside of the building does not show much activity; but, the windows are covered so it is difficult to tell what the ETA will be. There is a sign on the car dealership down the street indicating that Pepper is hiring...so, I am sure that it will be soon.

Pepper - you will need to get rid of all the cars behind the building...they are UGGLY

Jetskier

[Hermit Cover]

At the Grand Opening, Pepper and Waldo give each customer a "WP PUNCH" card. With each World-Renowned Lobster Roll purchased...the happy diner gets a punch (on the card). When 10 punches are completed...the now Very Happy diner gets to walk out back and choose a car...which MAYBE will start, and drive home. (Some of those cars look like they have $1.25 /gallon gas left in the tank)...Eventually...

[Pepper]

OMG you guys have me cracking up!

The cars have been slowly leaving, a few at a time. The remainder of them should be off the lot by the end of the week. Hallelujia!

We've been making a ton of progress inside and out. New well has been drilled. Fire alarm system is almost finished. Electrical is underway, plumbing is underway, fire supression is underway. Walls are finished, kitchen equipment all steam-cleaned and waiting to be placed. Tile in restrooms starts tomorrow, along with several other projects. Dining room is almost finished, and interviewing process is underway. Landscaping has begun, sign is now in place, menu is almost finished.

The plane will be be undergoing some intense refurbishment, so it will be a little while before she's flying. Wait till you see where she lands!!!

Meanwhile, we're almost ready to welcome everyone! I'll let you know soon!!!!!

[SIKSUKR]

Lots of fun opening a new place isn't Pepper?Hard work for sure with so many different items on the checklist as you just pointed out.I'm working 4 of the next 5 weekends Pepper so my only chance to get there until mid July is June 14/15.Crack that whip so I can fill my belly at all new WP's!Good luck!

Clearly you have not seen these cars. You would be TOWING IT HOME. I think that the gas in the tanks is probably the most valuable part.

The best part about them is - they're almost all gone!

But my tongue was firmly planted in my cheek
