2017 Loudoun’s Favorites: The Readers’ Recommendations

During June, Loudoun Now asked readers to share their recommendations about their favorite places, people and businesses. The response was enthusiastic. Nearly 2,500 names were submitted as nominations in the poll’s more than 200 categories.

Voting ended June 30 and the results are reflections of all-things Loudoun: Categories with the largest number of nominations included schools, places of worship, child care centers and restaurants.

Winners spanned from some of the county’s oldest businesses to its newest. The Red Fox Inn, which opened in Middleburg in 1728, was recommended as the favorite bed and breakfast, while Twenty8 Fifty7, which opened this spring in Leesburg, was the favorite women’s clothing store.

This special section announces the winners in all categories and puts the spotlight on a few. The list of winners also can be viewed at loudounsfavorites.com.

The winners gathered for a special reception July 26 at the Lightfoot Restaurant in Leesburg—the 2017 winner of the favorite fine dining location, favorite romantic dining choice and home to the favorite chef, Ingrid Gustavson.
