Father’s Day meals that will delight your dad

Father’s Day meals that will delight your dad

While sending a gift on Father’s Day is a lovely gesture, this seems a great year to take the time to meet up in person and treat your dad to dinner in one of London’s many wonderful restaurants. A meal provides the perfect occasion to catch up after the months of social distancing – and there’s the added bonus that you get to enjoy great food and even support the reopening hospitality industry. Here are a few of our suggestions for spoiling your dad with stylish comfort food on 20th June.

Contemporary Indian at Kahani

Contemporary Indian restaurant Kahani in Kensington has put together a Father’s Day menu not to be missed (priced at three courses for just £50pp). Chef Peter Joseph has made sure to include some of their favourites, including the much-loved Tandoori Tiger Prawns with Chilli, Coconut and Curry Leaves, Hyderabad Lamb Biryani and Chocolate Delice with Pistachio Sponge to finish. Book a table here.

Italian pasta plates at Como Garden

New Italian tapas restaurant Como Garden is ideal for celebrating special occasions – and if you take your Dad this Father’s Day, everyone on the table gets a complimentary glass of champagne. Not only that, but the restaurant will be serving a special dish for the day – yet to be revealed. Inspired by Lake Como in Italy, the interiors are lush with greenery, and even a giant olive tree. Bag a spot under it for the ultimate dining experience. Book a table here.

Latin American tapas at Zuaya

Much like its cool new sibling Como Garden, Zuaya will also be treating the table to a complimentary glass of fizz and have a special dish available to order on the day. Zuaya has an atmosphere like no other – vibey music, dark and mysterious interiors and wow factor to seduce the senses. The menu is Latin American, featuring everything from tacos to empanadas, and made to share. Book a table here.

Wine Dinners at Trinity Upstairs

If your dad enjoys a nice glass with his meal, why not up the ante and treat him to a Wine Dinner? The evenings are taking place on Mondays from June to November, and see Michelin-starred chef Adam Byatt joined by GQ Sommlier of the Year Sara Rossi for the ultimate night of indulgence. Each event shows off amazing produce, carefully paired with a different wine. The menu is £195pp inclusive of food, wine, water, coffee and service. Book a table here.

The Garden Pavilion at Chiswick House

Does your dad deserve spoiling? Lord Burlington’s 18th-century villa in Chiswick has just opened a new family-friendly pop-up restaurant housed in a stylish and floral-adorned marquee, nestled in the natural surroundings of the 65 acres of Grade I-listed Chiswick House and Gardens. Championing a farm to fork ethos and showcasing high quality, fresh and seasonal produce from Chiswick House’s own Kitchen Garden, the menu features modern re-interpretations of classics and well-loved dishes of yesteryear. Book a table here.
