For the dads

Father’s Day is gaining momentum, so be prepared to make the most of this opportunity

It’s great that at least once a year there’s a reason to thank Dad for all he does. And what better way than with good food and drink?

Keep it simple and cater for all meal occasions throughout the day. A bacon baguette, full English breakfast, ploughman’s lunch, classic burger, traditional roast and homemade pie are some of the most popular meals eaten out on Father’s Day.

PREPARE TO SUCCEED

» Use your mailing list, website and social media to advertise your offer for Father’s Day and how you’re planning to make it a special day.

» As it falls in June, offer take-out options such as picnic boxes, especially if you don’t have an outdoor area for customers to sit in.

» Why not include a free slice of cake or dessert as a special treat?

» Offer bottles of beer, ale, cider and wine, plus non-alcoholic alternatives and soft drinks, to enjoy with the food.

Whatever you do, make sure you promote well on all your different platforms to show you’re dedicated to making it the best Father’s Day possible.
