Patch is compiling the best of Barrow. We want to know where you love to shop, eat, take your kids and which local businesses you just can’t live without. We want to know, and so do your neighbors! 

Winners will be determined solely based on poll votes. Because this is a contest, you’ll need to create a Patch login vote. You'll find contest rules in a PDF to the right of this text underneath the photo. 

Voting will end Aug. 17, and the best of Barrow will be announced Aug. 24.
