History

The chain was founded in 1988 by two former Earls' waiters, Richard Jaffray and Scott Morison. The partners started with a restaurant named "Café Cucamongas", which they sold in 1988 to fund the establishment of the Cactus Club. In 1996, the company expanded into Alberta, which resulted in near financial ruin. The organization survived and by 1998 the chain expanded to 10 locations in British Columbia and Alberta. In 2005, Jaffray bought out Morison's interest in the business; the owners of Earls, the Fuller family, holds minority ownership. Morison has gone on to establish Browns Socialhouse, a chain of Vancouver restaurants.

By 2008, the chain had 19 locations in British Columbia and Alberta. That year, the chain took on Rob Feenie (the first Canadian to win Iron Chef America) as its executive chef and "food concept architect". Dishes created by Feenie are indicated on the restaurant's menus with "RF". By the chain's 25th year in business, it had about 2,500 employees and 27 locations.

In 2013, Matthew Stowe, a product development chef with the chain, was named the winner of Top Chef Canada's third season.
