Save the grilling for another day! This Father’s Day has special dishes, cheap pints of beer, and meal deals that are big enough to feed the entire family.
Is your dad hard to shop for? Does he have everything he could possibly need, including all your love? If you’re looking for a gift that just keeps, giving might I suggest a Foodie 500 membership? It’s all that and a bag of chips.
Keep in mind that we’ll be adding to the list each day leading up to Dad’s big day, so check it occasionally if you haven’t found the perfect meal for your parent. Oh, and pay attention to the dates because some of these are happening before Father’s Day on Sunday, June 18.
For the rad dad. Celebrate the dads, fathers, poppas, and paternal role models in your life at Playground! Try out their incredible food and drink menus — we recommend the I’ll Be Bac (Del Bac Dorado, House Bitters, Demerara, Amarena) and the Jalapeño Popper Burger (Two chorizo smash burgers, bacon wrapped cheddar stuffed jalapeños, American cheese, cheese sauce, lettuce, and shaved onion) for dad-themed deliciousness! Celebrate with the whole table with $20 bottles of wine! Beats provided by ZAW.
The resort’s Father’s Day edition of Blues, Brews & BBQ will have some serious star power, too, featuring guest chefs from around Tucson. The festive experience will be held inside and outside of The Canyon Club.
