Welcome to Boise Favorites
We are thrilled to bring you the second edition of Boise Favorites! This magazine continues to showcase the effort to discover and celebrate the businesses, people, and places the community loves most – as voted by you.
Our readers and residents take pride in the communities they live in and know the area best. That’s why the Idaho Statesman set out to deliver a “best of” program that highlights local favorites while supporting Boise area businesses.
The Idaho Statesman and IdahoStatesman.com remain dedicated to providing expansive, comprehensive 24-7 news coverage of everything impacting the community, its residents, businesses, environment, and leaders.
Boise Favorites has become a meaningful extension of these goals, and we are once again impressed by the incredible voter turnout and enthusiasm from local businesses. In this second year, over 3,300 businesses, organizations, and individuals competed to earn a spot in the top three across over 200 categories.
During voting, more than 88,000 votes were cast – an amazing response that reflects the loyalty, support, and pride customers, fans, and friends have for their favorite local businesses and the Boise area.
Producing a contest of this magnitude requires a dedicated local team and the support of committed businesses. Thanks to them, along with our advertisers, this year’s Boise Favorites has been another resounding success.
We are proud to salute and celebrate the outstanding businesses voted the best in their individual categories. Thank you to everyone who participated in the voting process. We encourage you to visit BoiseFavorites.com to connect with our winners. Whether they’re familiar favorites or new discoveries, these businesses will welcome and value your support. Please be sure to congratulate them for being named Boise Favorites!
