F

or the 18th consecutive year, the advertising department of Peninsula Daily News and Sequim Gazette is proud to present the readers’ choices for the best eateries, shops and services on the North Olympic Peninsula.

Readers responded to an online promotional survey choosing the places where they go for both business and pleasure. Unscientific in nature, the survey is designed to be fun and give readers a chance to cite the local businesses that they deem to be the best in the Peninsula.

This year’s winners again demonstrate a common theme that contributes their success. The winning businesses have distinctive personalities and offer products and services that set them apart from the rest.

Congratulations to winners and finalists.

And, thanks to all our readers who participated in the survey.
