So, what’s popping for papi this year?
With the pandemic starting to be in the rear view mirror — hopefully — there should be a lot more going on for Father’s Day on Sunday, June 20.
For now, we’ve come up with a curated list of our favorite daddy-riffic dining and drinking specials we think the father figure in your life might enjoy.
Keep in mind that prices do not include taxes and gratutities. Also, keep checking back in with this post as we might add more to the list later on.
The Ben hotel’s restaurant, Proper Grit, will give the first 50 purchasers free engraving on bottles of the new Greenbriar Tennessee Whiskey, which cost between $80-$100. The engraving will be done from 5-8 p.m. June 18, the Friday before Father’s Day. And if you come back to Proper Grit on Father’s Day, Dad will get a free Greenbriar whiskey drink.

Bond Street is going to hook hubbies/daddies up with a new dish: Key Lime Pie Stuffed French Toast for $13.25. That’s two slices of French toast stacked on top of each other with a slice of Key lime pie in the middle and then topped with fruit and served with eggs and bacon on the side.
Carvel is bringing back their Fudgie The Whale Cake and Fudgie The Beer for Father’s Day. The ice cream cake starts at $21.99 and the stout-style ale beer is $18 for a four-pack. Not familiar with Fudgie? Well, it is a character Carvel created for Father’s Day back in 1977. By the way, the beer is brewed with 6% alcohol by volume and Carvel’s signature chocolate Crunchies, fudge and ice cream. The beer is made through a partnership with Captain Lawrence Brewing, so it’s sold wherever you find their products, such as Whole Foods and Total Wine & More stores. You can also call 1-833-FUDGIE1 (1-833-383-4431) to hear some dad jokes and get more information on Fudgie’s Father’s Day offers.

For the rest of the table, the restaurant is bringing back its BOGO offer where from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. if you buy one regular menu entrée, you get a second entrée of equal or lesser value per person.
Vecinos Market, a Miami-based digital marketplace (that also delivers throughout Broward County) will have a virtual tasting with a whiskey flight from Glenlivet and Bar Lab. Hosted by brand ambassador Robert Ferrara, the live stream will take place Wednesday, June 23 at 6:30 p.m. so you’ll have enough time to have the whiskey delivered to the dad in your life.
