Go Virtual Clay Pigeon Shooting and Get Sloshed on Cocktails

Down at Clay’s this Father’s Day, you can combine two of Dad’s favorite things: guns and drinks. In honor of the big day, they’ve thrown in a package deal that can be booked for an additional £30. This package includes a bucket of six Camden Hells lagers and a whiskey sour on top of your shooting fee. The deal is only available on Father’s Day and can be booked on their website.

Take Dad to a Theme Park…

Father’s Day is all about a good laugh. Just so happens that’s what’s on offer at Phantom Peak. The place is the UK’s first immersive theme park and combines the story of a mysterious town with a bunch of puzzles, games, and activities to create a theme park that’s part performance, too. For Father’s Day, they’re offering dads a free glass of whiskey or a beer, a commemorative sticker, and a cowboy hat to go with all the puzzle-solving and fairground gaming. You can book you and your dad in for that here.

…Or Take Him to a Master Butchery Class

At Osteria Del Macellaio this Father’s Day, you can really treat dad. The Italian meat-Meca is offering a masterclass followed by a three-course meal for £120. We love this place – the food is great – but surprisingly it’s the masterclass we’re most excited for. At the masterclass, you’ll be taught how to select the best cuts of meat from lesser-known bits of beef and how to dry age them to get the most out of them flavor-wise. This’ll be followed by a meal of their best hits, including the lard on toast which is delicious, and Maccheroni alla Genovese – also delicious. You really can’t go wrong with this one.
