It's Papa Johns AINEC. God that place is gross. My favourite chain joint is probably Sarpino''s in Victoria. Not sure where else they are though.
Chicago Deep Dish here in Calgary is pretty good as well.
Second Slice is pretty hit or miss.

I was in Calgary a few weeks ago and ate Boston Pizza. It was just ok. Not really very good. Just ok.

Who cares? Who the f@$* orders ham on pizza anyways when bacon is readily available? I've only had Papa John's once, since there are not a lot of them around here, but the $5 one topping small I had from them was excellent, plus their free garlic dip is superior to the more generic creamy kind.

Gino's Pizza is absolute ****ing garbage. Don't waste your money folks.
Lirl @ people who wasted their time and money going to Boston Pizza. Imagine supporting a Canadian businessman who thought it'd be cool to name his business after an America city, which shares no relationship with pizza.

Yeah, Boston Pizza was not very good. Luckily, however, I "wasted" only ten minutes of my time and $12 of my money. It was quick, close and convenient, but, in the end, not worth it.

I find Gino's is very hit or miss. They don't seem to have the same franchise wide consistency of bigger chains, so each location is more like a mom and pop shop. Some are great, others not so much.
As for Boston Pizza, the guy purchased an existing business with the name, he didn't come up with it himself. After he grew it from a flop to a very profitable venture, it would have been stupid to give up the goodwill that comes with name recognition just to have something more Canadian.

I was making fun of his Boston Pizza comment. Hell - I'm also a Canadian that cheers for an American team. Even worse - I'm from just outside Montreal and cheer for the much hated Boston Bruins.
Yea Pizza Pizza is atrocious.
Megabite is a Vancouver-only chain but it is delicious. I highly recommend it.

It's not that, I was getting at the irony of naming your business because of the "brand appeal" of Boston, even if it doesn't make sense for the stuff that its selling.
I mean, when you think Pizza, you don't really think of Boston.
