We celebrate the Best of West County 2021 with the highly-anticipated Food & Dining winners! The following winners are the result of you, our readers, voting for your very favorite restaurants in our annual Best of West County voting campaign.
More than 20,000 of you participated this year! There were so many votes for so many businesses in fact, that, in addition to naming the overall winners for each category, we’ve decided to name finalists—those businesses which earned a high number of votes, but came in second or third place, so to speak. Not every category has finalists—only those categories in which the voting was most active.
So please join us in toasting and celebrating the Best of West County winners and finalists (listed alphabetically by category).
