The local businesses we’d send our own neighbors to. Every one is picked by the Star, and being featured is free.

You can’t buy a spot here. Featured businesses are earned, not sold, and they’re kept separate from advertising. An advertiser isn’t featured because it advertises, and a featured business never has to advertise.

Featured businesses

Our first picks are coming soon. Know a place that belongs here? Tell us below.

What we look for

• Locally owned, within about 45 minutes of West Point
• Neighbors who’ve used them speak well of them
• Does good work, shows up when promised and treats people fairly
• Gives something back to the community, whether that’s sponsoring a team or hosting an event

We look into every business before it’s featured, and we take it down if that stops being true.
