We’re raising a glass at GPub to celebrate this year’s Best of the South Shore Awards! Our very own Melissa O’Connor has been named Runner-Up for Best Bartender, and we couldn’t be prouder!
The BOSS Awards are your go-to guide for the top restaurants, shops, and services across the South Shore—and it’s all powered by you, the community. Every vote, every nomination, and every shoutout came straight from local supporters who know and love these standout businesses. No behind-the-scenes deals here—just real recognition for the best of the best.
This year, over 25,000 people cast their votes in the BOSS survey, and we’re thrilled to be part of such an incredible group of local favorites. From burgers to beauty salons, and even new categories like “Best Mobile Bartender,” this year’s winners truly reflect the talent and passion that make the South Shore special.
Thank you to everyone who voted, supported, and continues to show up for your local favorites. And from all of us at GPub—cheers to Melissa and to every business honored this year!
