Child passing Father a gift over a meal.

One Destination. Endless Ways to Treat Him This Father’s Day.

From laid-back brunches to full family feasts, bowling nights to mini golf, discover the best ways to spend quality time with dad this Father’s Day.

Every Dad is different – and we’re here to celebrate them all. Whether it’s your dad, stepdad, grandad, first-time dad or dog dad, our Father’s Day edit is packed with ideas to give them the day they deserve.

We’ve listed out the best things to do with Dad this Father’s Day, so you don’t have to - but we’ll let you take the credit.

Here’s our round up of the best ways to treat dad!

 

 

Blog - Breakfast

 

Treat him to brekkie. Stay for the banter.

 

He’s not into fuss, but he’s always up for great coffee from Sweet Bloom Cafe and an even better chat. Maybe he’s an early riser, a local regular who knows the baristas' names (and vice versa), or the kind of guy who can nurse a flat white while flicking through the paper.

His dream treat? A scoop (or two) of his favourite gelato, a sweet moment to himself, and absolutely nowhere to be. Whether it’s a quiet one-on-one or the start of a fun day out, a visit to Artigiano Gelato is an easy win for Dads who just want to enjoy something delicious, unhurried, and all theirs.
 

 

Blog - Dining 2

 

Treat him to a family feast. Stay for the after-dinner treat.

 

He’s got a go-to order at every restaurant, a talent for picking the best dish on the menu, and a gift for turning your table into the best seats in the house. He doesn’t just eat – he hosts, he recommends, he reviews (nicely), and he always finishes what’s left on your plate.

So, give him what he wants: a proper meal, a full table, and the kind of chat that lingers long after the plates are cleared. A table full of share plates from The Architect, Hello Harry burgers with all the sides, or next level noodles from Soka – whatever’s on the table, dining out is a no-fail move for the dad who just wants good food and great company. 
 

Blog - Entertainment 4

 

Treat him to bowling. Stay for the “best two out of three”.

 

He’s never just watching the movie – he’s rating it, quoting it, and debating whether it deserves a spot in his ever-changing “top five”. He’s way too competitive at mini golf, weirdly good at claw machines, and insists he’ll let you win your next game of air hockey (spoiler: he won’t.)

Father’s Day with him should be a good time: fun, easy and full of laughs. Banter over bowling at Strike Bowling, putt-putt showdowns at Holey Moley, dad style dance offs at Archie Brothers and always leaving room for a rematch... or two. However you spend it, you’ll hear about it again (and again) over dinner. Especially if he wins.

Top Tip: When choosing where to go on Father’s Day, a dinner and entertainment combo always tops the score board.

 

 

Blog - Pamper Dad

Pamper him with self-care. Stay for the relaxed smile.

Father’s Day isn’t just about gifts - it’s the perfect excuse for Dad to indulge in a little self-care. After all, he deserves to look and feel his best.

Start with a fresh cut and tidy-up at Hair 10 Quick Cut for that sharp, confident look. Follow it up with a relaxing massage at Real Health Massage to melt away the stress of the week, leaving him refreshed and recharged. And to round things off, explore Ramsay Pharmacy for skincare and fragrances - whether it’s a new moisturiser, aftershave, or a timeless cologne, there’s something to make him feel extra special.

 

Blog - Gifts

Gifts to top it all off.

The best Father’s Day experiences pair perfectly with a thoughtful gift. So, if you're looking to wrap something up for Dad, we’ve got that covered too.

Whether you’re shopping for the dad who loves a good read, the creative soul who enjoys crafting, or the one who appreciates something quirky, you’ll find it here. Think a favourite magazine or book from Maroochydore News, a fun DIY kit from Kaisercraft, or a novelty gift from TSG Maroochydore to make him smile.

Whether it’s the main event or just the cherry on top, you’ll find something he’ll actually use (and maybe even love).
