In 2018, Harrisburg Magazine’s Simply the Best went digital. For the first time, voting would take place online rather than the paper ballot. The new method allowed results to be more precise and have more categories: 237 categories to be exact. When the results were released in the August 2018 issue, 728 winners were announced. Below are the winners for the Drinks & Nightlife category. If you’re looking for a place to eat or drink, you’ll want to check out the Food and Restaurants groups. Click on any of the business names for more information about them. Don’t forget to check out the other 2018 Simply the Best Winners or check out a list of All 2018 Simply the Best Categories.
