The F.A.T. Friday Trolley Hop provides FREE parking and transportation to participating shops, restaurants and galleries along the Frankfort, Mellwood and Story Avenue corridor. Instead of the F.A.T. Friday Trolley Hop taking place on the Final Friday in December, this special Hop will be held on the Friday before Christmas. With such a unique shopping experience, you’re bound to find the perfect gift for family and friends alike. Stroll along the avenue- or take a trolley- and enjoy the locally owned boutiques, studios, galleries, antiques and consignment shops.

Once you’ve exhausted your shopping appetite, indulge your palate at one of Frankfort Avenue’s locally owned bistros, pubs or cafe’s. Choose from Filipino, Irish, Japanese or Mediterranean cuisine, as well as authentic Italian and classic Southern comfort food, in a wide range of atmospheres to suit any taste.

Many of the participating shops, restaurants and galleries will feature special holiday sales, specials, menus, and fun events, entertainment and exhibits. For more information about specific events, the trolley schedule and participating businesses, please visit www.fatfridayhop.org. Exciting things are always happening here!
