We receive hundreds of responses and compile the results and publish one of the biggest sections of the year. We hope you enjoy the edition in print. It is also here, on line for your convenience.
Thank you to all our advertisers and readers.
Beacon Media, publisher of the Pasadena Independent, Arcadia Weekly, Monrovia Weekly, Sierra Madre Weekly, Temple City Tribune published the 2010 Readers’ Choice edition in all of our newspapers. This popular guide to the restaurants, retail stores, home & garden services and other businesses in the San Gabriel Valley has become an annual tradition since its inception 15 years ago.
