Welcome to the 30th annual Best of Halifax Readers' Choice Awards. Yes, 30 years of The Coast's awesome readers voting for their favourite people, places and things about our great city. To mark this major anniversary, we've made a major change—adding Honourable Mentions in each category, along with the standard gold, silver and bronze winners. These are the contenders who were nominated by readers and competed in the BOH final voting, and who also embrace the goals of Haligonian excellence. After all this time, somehow the Best of just gets bigger and better, like Halifax itself.
