The tastiest places to take Dad this Father’s Day

Father's Day Dining - Carindale

With Father’s Day fast approaching (Sunday, 6 September, to be exact), it's the perfect time to start thinking about how you're going to treat Dad on this special day. If he appreciates a good meal, taking him out for a Father's Day feast will be the perfect way to make his day.

So, put that pair of novelty socks down and read on for our round up of places to take the fatherly figures in your life for a feast to remember.

For the breakfast connoisseur

It’s time for dad to put the tongs down, leave the apron at home and let someone else do the hard work. We can’t look past these cafes, which specialise in all things breakfast (pancakes included).

Check out Aroma Bakery & Cafe, Cafe Siena, Table 26, Eats, Hardy Boys and Nodo.

For the lover of all things spice

If dad isn’t quite a morning person but doesn’t shy away from <insert spicy food options i.e. a warming Massamann curry, piping-hot dumplings, drizzled in chilli oil or jalapeno topped, pulled-prok tacos>, consider adding one of these places to your Father’s Day shortlist.

Try Guzman Y Gomez, Yum Cha, Motto Motto, Jackpot Dining and David's Noodle & Hotpot.

For the dad who can't choose

If dad is one to stare at the menu for eternity, take him to a place where you can order a bunch of dishes to share with the entire family (thank us later).

Check out Carindale Hotel, Vapiano or Haad Thai.
