Each year, the Best of Dayton celebrates all that the Miami Valley has to offer. From doughnuts to bike shops, we love celebrating the businesses of this community. This year, the Best of Dayton was both an online and in-person competition, with thousands of people voting online and hundreds voting at our in-person event, held Nov. 2 at the Top of the Market Banquet Center. Dayton Magazine readers voted for their favorites in 140 categories, and we are excited to bring you this year’s winners. The community partner was the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce. The media partner was WDTN.
