Welcome to Richmond magazine’s 36th annual Best & Worst issue — here we present readers’ picks across 200 categories: services, stores, restaurants, entertainment and many more. Unlike other “best” lists, we explore the flip side, too, by sharing Richmond’s less than stellar aspects, from traffic jams to political drama. Consider this compilation a users guide to the region, covering everything from where to shop, dine and get a haircut to where to go for a first date (and where to find someone to ask). Enjoy!
