Patch's "Best Of" series strives to help Jamaica Plain residents get the best service, find the biggest bargains or choose the tastiest cup of coffee.

When we first started these contests, we did one a week. But this summer, we're changing gears by doing 25 categories at the same time.

We're done with nomination period. Thanks, everyone who nominated!

Now it's time to vote. The polls are open through Aug. 17.

Vote for your favorites in each one of the categories below. (Click on the links under each category and vote in the poll attached to each article.)

The business or community resource that gets the most votes will be named the Readers' Choice winner.
