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: The Coffee Club, IKEA, Le Bon Choix, Shingle Inn and Salt by Café One.

For the lover of all things spice

If Dad isn’t quite a morning person but doesn’t shy away from a chilli jam crispy pork dish or a jalapeno topped, pulled-pork tacos, consider adding one of these places to your Father’s Day shortlist.

Check out: Kinn Thai, Guzman y Gomez, Tikka of India, and Ka Chow.

For the timeless burger lover

Nothing beats a good old-fashioned cheese burger, but maybe it’s time to pull out all the stops and introduce Dad to something with a little bit more oomph. Try one of the delicious burger joints below - they won’t disappoint.

Check out: Betty’s Burgers, Grill'd, Beach House, Schnitz and North Lakes Tavern.

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: BBQ Town, Oi Sushi, Beach House and North Lakes Tavern.

And finally, something for the sweet-tooth dad

If you’re still stumped for ideas on where to take him, this option is foolproof. Indulge the family with a visit to one of these hot spots for dessert, and end the celebrations on a sweet note.

Checkout: San Churro Chocolateria, Yo Way, Brooklyn Donut and Coffee Co , Gelatissimo and Donut King.
