Eat and Shop at these New Places in LYH
LYH is growing and there are so many exciting new businesses to try in 2024 and beyond! One thing that makes Lynchburg so special is the number of small businesses, boutiques, restaurants and everything else in-between. We have compiled a list of the newest businesses to try out and support this year. (And don’t forget about the ones that have always been part of our City, too.)
