36 Unique Gifts for Dads Who Like to Cook, Drink & BBQ

If you’re looking for gifts for dads who cook and drink, you’ve come to the right place. Father’s Day is fast approaching and you likely don’t want to give your dad the same ordinary gift. Neckties are so last year. We’ll help you think outside the box and give the best, most unique gifts for dads who like to cook, drink, and BBQ so they feel appreciated.

First, let’s cover the classics: a good gift is one that your dad will use (functional = the best!) and enjoy, so get down to basics with good ol’ food and drink gift ideas.

Good Ol’ Fashioned Food and Drink

Ah, yes: what could be better than giving him exactly what he already enjoys? For alcohol gift ideas, surprise him with a bottle of his favorite; you can even have it conveniently delivered to his door from here. This is a great idea if you don’t live nearby or won’t get to see him on Father’s Day.

A Bottle of His Favorite

Not sure what he likes? Try your best guess (you can read recommendations here) and send him something of a different variety. Who knows, it may just become his new favorite beverage!

Is he more of a wine connoisseur? Surprise your dad with special bottles of bubbly or wine, as recommended in this guide.

Send Some Cheer via Gift Card

For gift card options, spoil him with a certificate to Minibar Delivery. You can purchase an e-gift card sent digitally to your dad so he can pick out whatever he’d like and GET IT DELIVERED to him! How convenient is that? He can be grilling burgers and a delivery of craft beer will arrive, just in time for the game.

If your dad likes to cook, give him plenty of food for the barbecue grill this summer. An assortment of meats, a subscription to a particular food service he would enjoy, or even snacks to have on hand is a nice treat. Consider a beef jerky gift like this, or a delectable basket of meat, cheese, and snack foods. This basket is by ManSnacks.

Here are some additional gifts we know he’ll cherish.
