Best (Dutch pronunciation: [bɛst] ⓘ) is a municipality and a village in the province of North Brabant, southern Netherlands.

Each time the military wanted to quarter troops in Best, they had to request to be stationed in Oirschot, 10 km away, for this to be allowed.

[citation needed] Archaeological excavations around the village suggest settlement in the area dating back to the Roman era.

[citation needed] Best received a railway station on the line Rotterdam – Breda – Boxtel – Helmond – Venlo – Maastricht.

[citation needed] The spoken language is North Meierijs (an East Brabantian dialect, which is very similar to colloquial Dutch).
