Starting on Monday, you'll see a new feature on Waltham Patch, where you, the reader, can tell us who makes the best smoothie, where to find the best park or what the best destination is for a night out. 

Patch's "Best Of" series highlights a different segment of the business community each week, striving to help Waltham residents get the best service, find the biggest bargains or choose the tastiest cup of coffee.

Each Monday morning, a new topic will be available to vote on. Tell us your pick in the poll, and also defend your choice in the comments section, letting fellow readers know why your choice is the best. You can also click through to our business listings to leave a review.

We'll collect the votes and comments throughout the week, until Friday at 9 a.m. Because this poll is not scientific, it is not the sole consideration in choosing a winner. The winner will be determined by the Patch editor, based on poll results, comments and reviews. 

Then, find who is crowned the "Best Of" winner each Friday when the result is posted at noon.
