Locally Loved Awards 2026
Welcome to the inaugural Visit Anaheim Locally Loved Awards! Anaheim is vibrant, diverse, and filled with incredible neighborhood spots—from legendary taco joints rooted in deep local heritage to the cozy coffee nests where our community gathers. Now, it is time to give our hard-working local businesses the ultimate shoutout.
We are handing the microphone over to the people who know this city best: the locals. Whether you reside right here in Orange County or are a passionate regular, your voice matters. Voting begins in late June 2026, and winners will be officially crowned by early August 2026!
Explore the categories below, cast your vote using our official ballot, and help us shine a spotlight on the spots that make Anaheim feel like home.
