Honoring The Businesses That Make Every Day Great

This week we take a break from offering ideas for a single location and look at the businesses you love - and which ones you'd love to see in Southington.

Each week, Visions for Vacancies has gone around town and offered empty locations and asked our readers what they would like to see fill each location. Some have been filled, such as the old Bernie's Store, the empty storefront in Walmart plaza and now work is being done at the site of the former Blockbuster.

So this week, we are going to take a break and change things up a bit and highlight some of the business in town that you already love.

On Friday afternoon, we asked everyone to share their favorite spots in town on the Southington Patch Facebook page. And you guys came up with many answers, highlighting every kind of restaurant you could imagine and even nominating Faith Living Church in Plantsville.

But now it's time to ask the questions. You've shared who you love, but what business could Southington most benefit from? Which favorite spot do we not have here in town? Where would you put them?
