Yep, it's that time of year. CN&R readers have once again flexed their voting muscles in order to recognize their favorite shops, restaurants, artists, service providers, entertainment venues and a whole lot more. And now we get to reveal the winners!

Flip through these pages to see who's taken the top spots this year—there are more than a couple upsets. We even added a dozen or so categories, giving even more people and places a chance at the spotlight. And, as is tradition, CN&R editors jumped at the chance to honor their faves as well. Can you dig it?

Congratulations to Chico's best of 2018!
