When Father’s Day rolls around on June 18 this year, we want to make sure Dad knows that he’s the best. After all — who has more love, care and Dad jokes for their kiddos than their fathers? There are so many ways to make the dads, uncles, grandpas and special men in our lives feel great, including delicious food, meaningful gifts and special family outings.

Gifts
Dads can be pretty tricky to shop for. Of course, you want to get Pops something special but a new tie year after year can get, well, boring.
If you’re looking to get your dad something that tops years past, consider one of the ideas in our roundup of Father’s Day gift ideas — bacon bonbons anyone?
Not feeling store-bought this year? A handcrafted gift that comes from the heart is another option and we’ve got roundups to help get your creative juices flowing. Check them out…
Food
Most restaurants will likely already be open when Father’s Day rolls around but we bet it’ll be crazy trying to get a seat for a while.
If you want to brave the crowds, we suggest taking dad to a kid-friendly bar or local brewery where he can sample some of the delicious beers our state is known for.
Want to avoid the crowds? You can’t go wrong with grilled chicken or sliders on dad’s big day.
Other activities
Outdoorsy dads might like a trip to a local fishing spot and more relaxed dads? They might enjoy a golf outing.
If Pops is a homebody, curl up with a Father’s Day movie that the entire family will enjoy.
