48 Hills is proud to host the 44th edition of the Bay Guardian Best of the Bay! Here’s where you get to tell the world about your favorite places, people, and things in the BEST place to live on Earth.

BEST OF THE BAY 2019

This year, we’ve streamlined our categories for easier voting and to keep up with a changing Bay Area. Ever since Best of the Bay launched in 1974—the first “Best of” to appear in a local paper—it’s served as a snapshot of of the Bay Area, from Best Burrito and Best Bike Shop to Best Politician and Best Drag Queen (or King!).

We hope you take a minute to vote, recalling some of your favorite experiences and encounters of the past year. Voting continues through September 3, and winners will be announced in October! 

Stay tuned for a Best of the Bay party announcement. And HAPPY VOTING!
