FHBA Happy Hour Recap – July 9, 2026

FHBA July Happy Hour at Noto’s Old World Italian Dining

Sponsored by Atwater Law

The Forest Hills Business Association gathered in July for a vibrant Happy Hour hosted inside the timeless, Old World setting of Noto’s Italian Dining. Nearly 40 attendees joined us — with almost half attending as guests — marking one of our strongest turnouts of the year and a clear sign of the growing interest in FHBA’s community‑focused programming.

Members were welcomed by the venue’s signature architectural charm: curved staircases, brick archways, warm lighting, and beautifully displayed wine collections. A highlight of the evening was a gracious tour of the establishment led by Tony Noto, who guided our group through Noto’s distinctive spaces. The photos of the sweeping staircase, the brick‑arched hallways, and the wine cellar reflect the behind‑the‑scenes experience he shared with us.

Throughout the event, attendees connected over drinks, shared conversations in the lounge and cellar spaces, and enjoyed the relaxed flow of the evening. The photos capture exactly what made the night special: genuine interactions, small‑group conversations, and the elegant character of Noto’s that elevated the experience.

Atwater Law, our event sponsor, joined us to greet members and share their commitment to supporting local businesses. Their partnership helped make this Happy Hour possible, and we are grateful for their continued support of the FHBA community. We also extend our appreciation to the FHBA board members who organized the event, the members who attended and invited guests, and the guests who joined us — your presence contributed to an outstanding evening for our association.
