The old Waldo peppers site

ripley · 08-25-2012, 02:01 PM

HI All,
I haven't been in the area for some time...Any one know if their is any progress with the Waldo Peppers old site?
I remember someone announced a breakfast place and maybe someone else running it for lunch and dinner..any one see or hear anything ??

webmaster · 08-26-2012, 07:24 AM

This sign was hanging over the door last week. I don't know how long it has been there or what the permit says. Maybe someone else has more information.

nicole · 08-26-2012, 10:46 AM

The sign has been there since at least June. I first noticed it around the end of bike week. Was hoping for them to open and really hoping to get a decent pizza instead of having to drive for one.

The pizza place is supposed to be sharing the space with "Megan and Rosie's-for breakfast-according to another post-have not seen an update lately-hopefully soon.

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to inform everyone that in a few weeks, not sure of the exact date I will let everyone know when I know, but Rosie and I will be opening for breakfast!! The place is next to Guilbickis Towing in the Weirs. Mom and I will be doing breakfast then friends of ours will be running a pizza/sub shop for lunch and dinner. Yes, our lobster rolls will be available due to their popularity. Also, for lunch and dinner we deliver. I just wanted to give everyone a heads up. I will post on this thread when I figure out the exact date that we will be opening. We look forward to seeing everyone there!!

Thanks for all your support and we hope for the continued support,

Meghan and Rosie

This is from another thread , "Sam and Rosie's fans......."

Mr. V · 08-26-2012, 10:35 PM

Wow, one can only hope that the quality of the pizza and the subs approaches that of Waldo Pepper's in its heyday.

Best of luck!

SAMIAM · 08-27-2012, 09:05 AM

Funny...thought I saw a sign there last week that said "Breakfast by Rosie and Mehgan coming soon" wonder if they might be doing breakfast in the A.M. with pizza after that.

I don't think anyone can top 'Pepper'!

phoenix · 08-27-2012, 01:42 PM

Pepper is one of a kind

ripley · 10-03-2012, 12:31 AM

Because I find that location to be interesting and i am always curious about what might go in next ,i stopped and read the building permit. It is made out to a person who shall remain pretty well nameless other than to say this:
there is a direct connection to this place [waldos ] and the finacier who was supplying money for the huge condo project in concord that went bust when the money for it suddenly went dry. As best as i can tell from the legal documents I have read they state that the money that was building the condo project called Abbott village condo is also the supplier who was providing the money for the waldo purchase and renovations such as building renovation and the ability to dock a boat and walk over for pizza and lobster rolls/subs.
The legal documents read " Scott Farah" as the money man behind both projects. I am not making any statements .I am just telling you what I read in the Newspapers I looked up.
Now ,while I am sure it is more complicated than what I have just written and that perhaps many legal wrangelings have taken place since the documents I read were first published , a few of the names might provide a clue as to why waldos sits empty 2-3 years later..I don't know the answers ,,,,only more questions that no one wants to answer ..
So i think it may sit empty for a little while longer .I think this simply gives us more questions than we had before and fewer and fewer answers...I hope what I read was incorrect

Happy Gourmand · 10-03-2012, 10:31 AM

If the name is posted, why the mystery?

ripley · 10-04-2012, 10:28 AM

Because I have taken the time to get out of my car and read who the contracot is and who the building permit was issued to.
I then went to the News papers trying to find out who owed the place as I might be interested in it if no one else is going there.
I learned what I did by reading the newspapers and many court documents and i am leaving it there for now.
I expect that someone will come along and have their 2 cents [99 cents ] worth to put in . I am not going to state that the world is round because someone will come along and explain away anything the newspapers or the court documents say, and explain that no matter what the documents say, the world is flat .
I know there are often 2 or 3 or more sides to every story.I believe this is accurate ..just gonna wait to see who's head pops up and spins a tale !
lets wait a few days and see who it is and what their "take ' on the situation is.the documents say one thing and the newspapers seem to back it up.time will tell

Hi all,

This is Meghan.. My mom and I will be running this restaurant in early/late spring. Yes, it was supposed to be breakfast in the morning and a pizza place at night, but plans have changed. My mom and I will be doing breakfast, lunch, and dinner 7 days a week. Scott Farah has NOTHING to do with this restaurant and has not given any money to this "project". As for the Abbot Village situation I know first hand what happened and I assure you money didn't "dry up." Also, the man you're airing stuff about has only been leasing this building for not even a year. LEASING, does not own! I wouldn't publicly air people's news on a site like this when you're not sure if you're even telling the right facts. Sorry to sound mean, but I don't think you'd want false statements written about you.

Thanks,
Meghan

Meghan,

I wish you and your mother all the best with your plans. I enjoyed what was there when it was Waldo-Peppers and I know that if you work hard and provide good food at a fair price, you can make it.

I'll say hello when you open. Glad to hear it will be breakfast, lunch and dinner!

Thanks for your post!

ripley · 01-23-2013, 01:13 PM

please note that I never said that scott fargar had anything to do with this business. the only thing I mentioned is that the GC or the owner was getting some funding for the project from farhar not that farhar has anything to do with the company who owns the place.
And in spite of saying that and addinf several disclaimers there is ,as always, some who will put words in others mouths, just to suit their needs
I wish you well

Belmont Resident · 01-25-2013, 07:38 AM

I was staying out of this one but after you posted again beck peddling.
Maybe the previous ventures had the dealings with the people you mentioned but Meghan posted none of what you say appears to be true.
Why back peddle and try to say others are wrong instead of saying maybe I was wrong?
Are you from here? Do you have first hand knowledge or are you just digging hoping to create friction or change the topic?
This is a perfect example why this forum is going down the tubes.
Way to may discussions about absolutely nothing lake related.
The original post was about the lake but when you start digging dirt and trying to make others looks bad then it strayed from lake related.
Just wish them well in their new venture. We all know that this is a really hard location to make it in.

It depends on the people and the product.

The original Waldo Peppers seemed to do pretty well there.

Frankly, they did not do well enough or they would not have moved. It is a tough business to be in.

I cannot speak for her but I believe they moved to their new location in an attempt to expand business. She was at the Weirs location as long as I can remember (but I've only been here 11 years) and business did good all year round. But again I'm only going by what I know in the years I have been here.

I do know that the Weirs during off peak season is a tough area to keep a business in. I work all around the area and there just are not many people around the Weirs during the winter and many of us contractors want those quick in quick out no more then $5 meals.

phoenix · 01-25-2013, 02:18 PM

i think that was it the weirs was too difficult in the winter and remember pepper's actually shut down one winter. So problem will not be the summer but are there enough people in the winter. the follow on location for Pepper's assumed a larger drive by in the winter. But i wish them well

You are wrong. They did very well at that location and their reasons for moving were not for a lack of business.

Most of the "information" posted on this thread is inaccurate speculation by people with little or no knowledge of the actual facts. Great reading, but no basis for the majority of the posts.

It would serve no purpose to post the real information so at this time it will remain out of the public view but if you do not have real information you should probably be an observer rather than post your ideas as if they are factual.

How is your idle speculation different from mine? This is an internet forum and as such speculation is a large part of what is posted.

I don't know of too many restaurants that "did very well" at a location move and then be gone in a short time.

If you know anything about the restaurant business, that location is a dog (and too small).

Have a good day

Is there anything at this site now (Waldo Pepper building)? or is it still for rent/lease? I know someone looking to branch out and is looking for a small place

phoenix · 08-31-2013, 11:13 AM

went by a couple of weeks ago and it was empty

Legionnaire70 · 08-31-2013, 04:07 PM

I live across the street, yup.. Still empty. There's a # out front for rent/lease.

nahgem521 · 10-11-2013, 09:02 AM

Hi Everyone,

This is Meghan...supposed to be Breakfast with Rosie and Meghan...Obviously we are no longer going into the building. My mother always said, "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." And frankly, I don't feel like being sued...'nuff said
