About

I'm Nick, but most people around here know me as NoHo Nick.

I live in North Hollywood, CA in the San Fernando Valley.

What is San Fernando Valley Business Directory?

This is a curated business directory for the San Fernando Valley.

I cover every neighborhood in the Valley.

I run a weekly newsletter called NoHo Nick that goes out to thousands of people every Thursday morning where I share Valley events, food spots, and local news.

This directory is an extension of that. It’s a way to give local businesses ongoing visibility instead of just a one-week mention.

How does it work?

If you're looking for a coffee shop in Burbank or a pet sitter in the San Fernando, you can browse by neighborhood or category.

I tag certain places as "Local Favorites.” (Learn more about ratings.)

These are spots that multiple people in the community have recommended, places I actually go, or businesses my readers trust.

Business owners can submit their business for free. No tricks, no extortion.

Why did I make this?

Other websites make it hard to discover cool new spots.

Plus, they often pressure businesses to pay up or risk getting buried.

I wanted something better.

Hyperlocal focus, community curation, and built-in traffic from people who actually live here.
