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 same building that offers a variety of different delicious foods if you're undecided on what you would like to eat. We stayed in the hotel for a couple of nights and watched NOFX's last concerts in Canada! While we were there, we had the nachos at the Hub City Pub twice because we wanted to research the chicken and beef options, and because they were just that good.
Hub City Pub Regular Beef Nachos - August 2024
|
The distribution of toppings was just okay as there were some bare chips left over at the end. That was the case both times that we tried these nachos.
Quality
The taco beef was nice and moist and well-seasoned. The chicken was tasty! It definitely did not taste like it came out of a can like we've had at other places. There was a proper cheese blend and the toast factor was spot-on. The nachos were perfectly cooked through and the overall presentation was pretty good. The atmosphere was great as you sit right beside all the action happening in the casino, and they have televisions all over the place with sports playing on them. The chips were fresh and tasty and the veggies were good as well.
Quantity
The regular size was good enough to share as a meal and the late night size was good for a snack after bouncing around at the punk rock concerts.
Service
The server both times was very friendly and efficient. Make sure you find out how late the late night menu is available! The kitchen shut down at 11:45pm when we were there.
Value
The regular sized nachos are $22. If you add beef, it is $7 extra. If you add guacamole it is $2 extra. The late night nachos are $16. If you add chicken it is $7 extra and it is still $2 for the extra guacamole. It would normally seem kind of pricey, but the casino is a special attraction and the nachos were pretty good. I would say it's a great value overall.
Conclusion
I am hoping to go back to this pub during football season when there is football on those tv's instead of tennis! The nachos had most of the elements of what makes a good nacho. The only improvement I would make would be the distribution of toppings, and drop the price a bit. And in case you were wondering, no I did not get into the mosh pit at the NOFX concert!!
