I need ideas for a pleasant restaurant for Father's Day, fussy father.
Plus, men, guys - need ideas on what you like as presents from your adult kids?
Shirts & golf balls become boring year after year. Not a techno dad.

Tools or gift certs for HD, Lowes, OSH. Any other sports, then gift certs for REI, Sport Chalet, etc.
Early Toast, Acorn Cafe, Viscontis

For the Dad who seems to have everything he ever wants, buy him consumables.
An expensive single malt scotch.
A nice filet mignon to cook up on the BBQ.
But really, the only gift a father ever needs on Father's day is pampering.
All of the above work for me anyway

I would rather be Backpacking

He likes most all foods. You think like cooking a lunch or dinner? Didn't think of that till I saw your question & maybe a gift card to HD. Who couldn't use that? Thanks.

take him to a RiverCats game or something like that. Time with him may be the best present you could give.

I love to go to Early Toast for a Daddies Day Brunch.
Get him a really good quality pocket knife... it's the kind of gift that can last dad a lifetime and will most certainly be used and appreciated often. I know I've really enjoyed the one I received.
YMMV,
