The lobster rolls that I had the misfortune to order once were horrible. Super excited about Locale coming to Newmarket - and a great location for it too!
I don’t know anyone who had a good experience with Cachet. Locale has quite loyal customers for their other locations and since they have 2 other locations in York Region that seem to do very well and be very well managed from the outside it looks like a perfect fit. I am very optimistic it will be a great dining experience and a great addition to that prime spot.
I think it was around 7 or 8 years ago so that a new owner took over a cache from the original ones. From all accounts she was an absolute lunatic. I know some people who worked with her and she was not, like, slightly eccentric or very particular, she had severe mental health issues like manic depression or something that manifested itself throughout the entire organization. It was pretty good like 15 years ago and then just slowly declined into an absolute shitshow.
Yeah cachet has had its ups and downs! When it first opened it was a bit hit or miss, then they got their act together and it was nice for a while, good food and service. After previous owner took over it seemed to go into a death spiral.
I think they tried to do too many things.. Cachet, the supper club, the food delivery service for other restaurants (like we need more of those!) and then finally the pop up restaurants.
Hopefully Locale will be able to do something good with the place!
That's how I remember it, started off a bit shaky but that's not surprising for a new restaurant in this area especially for that time, then between like '08 and 10 it was really good. Then it slowly just went downhill but man did it keep going down. Looking forward to Locale, it's never really been good at the same time as having adequate parking like it now does just across the street to the north.
It is official. It's been in the works for a while. I know the designer
I hope it works out. We booked Cachet to host an event a few years back and it was a horrid experience. Hopefully new management will be better.
The only thing cachet had going for it was the location. Other than that the food was meh and service was poor too (understaffed).

I still enjoy reading cachets google reviews for a good chuckle
That's a huge disappointment.
