Welcome to The Best of North County
presented by North County Injury Lawyers!
We live, shop, eat, and play in North County and we wouldn’t have it any other way. In celebration of our great communities, The Coast News Group is presenting The Best of North County in 2026. This contest is truly designed to engage the community in celebrating the places, restaurants and local businesses we love.
Last year, we introduced a brand-new ballot platform to improve the voting experience and added a Bronze award to each category, further highlighting the depth of talent and service offered by our local businesses. This means that instead of just honoring Gold and Silver winners, we now recognize three standout businesses in every category—because North County deserves a broader spotlight.
