| Virginia Living Magazine's Best of Virginia 2012 |
In January and February of 2012, Virginia Living Magazine asked their readers, to tell them their ‘bests’ in everything from dining to doing. And they told them! After receiving nearly 10,000 responses, Virginia Living counted the surveys and compiled the list of winners. They now know the best restaurants and bars, shops and boutiques, even dermatologists and architects from across the five regions of Virginia—Eastern, Northern, Central, Southwestern and the Shenandoah Valley.
As expected, Olde Towne Portsmouth fared well in the competition and beat out some pretty respectable Hampton roads competition in both food and drink categories and shopping and services. Here's the list of Olde Towne Portsmouth's distinguished winners from the Best of Virginia 2012! You can also preview all of the winners around the commonwealth by clicking here.
