Father’s Day is this Sunday, and to honor the dads in your life, or if you’re scrambling for ideas about how to spend the day, I’ve rounded up some Nashville restaurants that would be great places to bring Dad. Whether young kids are joining the celebration or this is an adults-only get-together, I’ve got lots of unique ideas to honor that special guy or guys in your life. Enjoy, and happy Father’s Day! And if this day is hard for you, I’m sending you lots of love.
📍East Nashville
This is a great place to eat if you have young kids in tow. A playground guarantees a fun time for all, and the pizza is excellent.
📍South Nashville
Do you have a millennial or Gen X gamer dad in your life? Look no further. This arcade is tons of fun, with a classic arcade menu that includes corn dogs and loaded nachos, as well as a large drink menu. Kids, especially teens, will have a blast, too.
📍West Nashville
This casual restaurant and bar offers plenty of games for the family and is a great place to watch sports. On Sunday, they offer 2-for-1 beers.
📍Downtown
Give Dad and the entire family an unforgettable experience. House of Cards has a special Father’s Day Brunch with an accompanying magic show. Make sure to go ahead and reserve a time, and remember to follow the dress code.
📍Belle Meade & Cool Springs
This locally-owned steakhouse has been around since I was a kid. It opens early on Father’s Day at 11 a.m., and it’s THE place to go if your dad wants a classic steak experience for the big day.
📍Downtown
This fancy Italian restaurant is celebrating Father’s Day all week with special menus and whiskey tastings. They’re open for brunch and dinner on Sunday. Better leave young kids at home if you’re planning to go here.
