Best of Watauga 2025 by Mountain Times Publications

CELEBRATING WATAUGA COUNTY’S BEST OF THE BEST

Approximately 270 community members gathered in Appalachian State University’s Grandview Ballroom to celebrate the winners of the 16th annual Watauga Democrat Best of the Best award winners.

The April 23 event was a significant celebration of local businesses that were voted the “best of the best” in various categories. This year’s event was made possible through the generous support of sponsors Austin and Barnes Funeral Home,

Dougnet Computer Consulting, Mountaineer Dental and Sleep Center, Hopscotch Primary Care, Mountaineer Heating & Cooling, AppleJuice, Capones and Chickfil-A.

Executive Editor and Watauga Democrat editor Moss Brennan helped present the awards at this year’s event.

“Each year, this event gets even bigger and more fun,” Brennan said. “We had a great time celebrating these winning

businesses that our readers voted best of the best. From winning ‘Best Hotdog’ to ‘Best Computer/ Repair Service,’ the businesses in this special publication are truly the best in Watauga County in their respective category.”

Thousands of Watauga Democrat readers voted for their favorite businesses to determine winners in more than 150 categories. Voters’ enthusiasm demonstrated that the efforts of local businesses do not go unnoticed in Watauga County.

After eating a meal catered by

App State Catering and listening to the smooth sounds of jazz played by the Todd Wright Trio, recipients and their guests enjoyed impressive views of the App State Football stadium and the surrounding mountainous landscape as award winners were announced.

The Watauga Democrat applauds each of the winners and is thankful for their tireless work in the community and their support of Watauga County’s newspaper of record.
