Philadelphia Magazine just published its 2016 “Best of” Philly edition and there was some locals recognized, or at least some people and business with local connections. They are:

Yoga Home
Conshohocken’s Yoga Home topped the reader’s poll for the best yoga studio.

Maura Manzo
Maura, one of the owners of Yoga Home, was recognized for best yoga podcast.

Bar Hygge
Bar Hygge, which is in the city, won for best new brewpub. Stew and Julie Keener are part of its ownership. Stew ran Baggataway for years and is still the managing partner. Julie worked at Baggataway as well.

Jess Edelstein and Sarah Ribner
These two were recognized as the “reality stars we are proud of.” The duo appeared on ABC’s Shark Tank with their all-natural deodorant, PiperWai, obtained a deal and went on to make $2 million in sales in three months. The deodorant, at least at the time, was made at a factory on Conshohocken Road.

Kristel Closets
Conshohocken-based Kristel Closets was recognized for “best wardrobe guidance.” Its owner, Megan Kristel, lives next door in Lafayette Hill.
