Boston Pizza, Saint John, N.B.

There are 348 Boston Pizza restaurants in Canada and over 40 in the United States and Mexico. The Boston Pizza I have been visiting is the one in Saint John, New Brunswick. When you think of Boston Pizza's food, you might think of their pizza, or maybe the pasta. However, they do have nachos as well.

Water's Edge Resto Bar Grill: Charlottetown, PEI

Water's Edge Resto Bar Grill is located inside the Delta Hotel in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. I spent a lot of time drinking a lot of Corona Zeroes (I emptied their stock) and just having some great conversations before and after running the Charlottetown Marathon. They were some of the friendliest servers and bartenders that I have experienced in a long time and they really made my stay feel special. After I ran the marathon, it was time to have some nachos. What could be better than a plate of nachos after running for 5+ hours? (Hope for it to be 3+ hours, but that's a story in itself)  Water's Edge Resto Bar Grill Beef Nachos - October 2025 Distribution of Toppings I would give the distribution of toppings a 4/5. It was not perfect as there were some bare chips left over, but I was satisfied with it. There were lots of dips for the chips in case there was a chip with nothing on it! There was also some queso with multiple layer distribution.  Quality I found that...

Nacho Pub: Québec City, QC

I love going to Québec City when I am visiting the province of Québec. Old Québec gives me that feel that we are walking down historic streets in Europe and there are such great museums to visit. When we went this time, every person I talked to was very nice (were they in the Christmas spirit?). I really wanted to make sure that during the few days we were there, that we were going to have the best food experiences whether it be pasta, steak, or nachos. We had to try Nacho Pub based on its name and prime location, located in old Québec close to the Pub des Borgia  and many shops. It seemed like kind of a big deal with mandatory reservations and the nacho theme, but you can't judge a book by its cover. Nacho Pub Beef Nachos - December 2025 Distribution of Toppings One of the few things that was good about these nachos was the distribution. It was not flawless, but there was something offered for every chip. If not, there were 4 different dips. Quality The chips were c...

Pub des Borgia: Quebec City, QC

Pub des Borgia is located in old Quebec City and it is at the bottom of the steep set of stairs called  Escalier Casse-Cou (Breakneck Stairs), and also at the bottom of the Funiculaire . I was happy to re-visit this place in our second visit to Quebec City in December 2025. I think we will visit this pub every time we are in town and consider ourselves "regulars".  Pub des Borgia Smoked Meat Nachos - December 2025 Pub des Borgia Smoked Meat Nachos - September 2023 Distribution of Toppings Pub des Borgia had pretty good distribution of toppings. There were a lot of toppings to go with every round chip. No picture with leftover bare chips required for this place! Quality There was a lot of mozzarella cheese to go with the smoked meat and they went well together. We asked the server for extra cheese but she laughed and said we did not need the extra cheese. We didn't! As you may be able to see from the picture, there was plenty of cheese. In addition, the nachos had a great...

Brackley Drive-In Threatre, Brackley Beach, Prince Edward Island

The Brackley Drive-In Theatre, located between Brackley Beach and Charlottetown, has been around since the mid 1950s. It has been restored with an authentic 1950s theme with vintage decor, and it has two massive screens that each show two different movies each night. On our 2025 summer vacation we spent a couple of fun evenings here watching great movies and eating delicious snacks. Of course we had to try the nachos. Brackley Drive-In Nachos - August 2025 Brackley Drive-In Nachos - August 2025 Distribution of Toppings This type of nacho does not really qualify for distribution ratings since the components are kept in individual containers. It's up to you to distribute things as you like! Quality Crispy tortilla chips, and the salsa was pretty good! Not amazing, but it tasted great at the Drive-In. Same goes for the queso - it's just perfect for the setting. With the dips in their own bowls, you can take your time dipping without worrying about soggy chips. I wish they had lit...

Hub City Pub: Moncton New Brunswick

Hub City Pub is located in Casino New Brunswick, Moncton, NB. This is a fun spot where you can play lots of games, see some live entertainment, and eat some delicious food. There is also a buffet in the casino that offers a variety of different delicious foods if you're undecided on what you would like to eat. We have stayed here on a few occasions and enjoyed some amazing concerts including NOFX, The Beaches, the Buzzcocks, and the Descendents! After the concerts, we always have the nachos at the Hub City Pub. Hub City Pub Beef Nachos - August 2025 Hub City Beef Nachos - May 2025 Hub City Pub Regular Beef Nachos - August 2024 Hub City Late Night Chicken Nachos - August 2024 Distribution of Toppings The distribution of toppings greatly improved the last time we visited in August 2025. There were still a few bare chips but I was happy with how much they improved in just a few months.   Quality The taco beef was nice and moist and well-seasoned. The chicken was tasty! It defin...

The Painted Pony Bar & Grill: Sackville, New Brunswick

We spent the night in Sackville the night before we ran across The Confederation Bridge for the Terry Fox run. I highly recommend that to anyone! It was unlike anything I ever experienced in running! Amazing! We ate a lot of food in Sackville and there was an opportunity to do some nacho research. Normally I would not eat nachos the night before a 13km run but I decided to make an exception and make my way to The Painted Pony Bar & Grill for a nice snack.  The Painted Pony Chicken Nachos - September 2025                                        The Painted Pony Chicken Nachos (what was left over) - September 2025 Distribution of Toppings The distribution of toppings was poor. It looks like there are about 20 bare chips left over. Not much under the hood! Quality The nachos were very bland and not spicy with just a few jalapeños on them. The little bit of cheese that was on these na...

Island Stone Pub Kensington Station: Kensington, Prince Edward Island

The Island Stone Pub is located in Kensington, Prince Edward Island. It used to be a train station back in the day and when you walk in, it feels very classy and old school. It gives a bit of a diner vibe with good food and friendly staff. It is also located just around the corner from a haunted mansion so it's a good place to fuel up before you experience some spooks! The day we visited was also the first time we had rain in weeks so I was tempted to do a little rain dance. I feel like I missed out not doing the dance, since we didn't actually get much rain. Island Stone Pub Kensington Station  Nachos - August 2025 Distribution of Toppings The distribution of toppings was excellent. I think every chip had the perfect blend of veggies and cheese. Quality These have to be the best kettle chip nachos we have ever had! There was lots of bacon bits and green onion with plenty of perfectly melted cheese. There was a variety of huge dips that you can get with the nachos and we got ...

Captain Dan's Seafood Bar & Grill: Pointe-du-Chêne, New Brunswick

It was NB Day weekend and we decided to visit some family and eat some delicious food in Shediac. The weekend definitely did not disappoint! On one of the nights we decided to walk the beautiful trails to the Pointe-du-Chêne Wharf where we visited an old favorite: Captain Dan's . I am not sure exactly when this restaurant opened, but I think it has been around since at least the 90's. We got there on a hot August evening to find a big line of people waiting to be seated. We employed our usual tactic and went straight to the fairly empty bar, skipped the line, and got our nachos. Secret's out!  Captain Dan's Veggie Nachos - August 2025 Captain Dan's (what was left over) oh no! Distribution of Toppings The distribution of toppings was very poor as you can see from the pictures. All the fun was at the top and there was nothing underneath the hood. Quality The salsa and jalapeños were nice and spicy and the cheese at the top was tasty. We recommend you ask for extra che...

Salt Bight Restaurant & Bar: St. Andrews, New Brunswick

Salt Bight Restaurant & Bar  is located in downtown St. Andrews, New Brunswick. It has a nice patio with a great view and it's the perfect place to go on a beautiful day, especially after running an 8km race. We actually had these nachos the day before the race (yay carb loading!) and we loved it so much we went back again after the race. Salt Bight Nachos - June 2025 Distribution of Toppings There was a lot of cheese to go with these nachos. The distribution of toppings was perfect with a mouthful of cheese and chips in every bite. Quality There was a lot of banana peppers on the nachos which really popped out and overpowered the other flavors. There was a lot of cream on top which normally I like to have on the side to dip, which helps avoid soggy nachos. However, these nachos were not soggy, so not a problem! There was a lot of salsa on the side for dipping. The toast factor  was on point and all the cheese was melted. The overall taste was great as well. I really appre...
