20 food gifts to spoil dad this Father's Day, from whisky fudge to cider subscriptions

This vodka is perfect for the martini lover. Crafted with olives and lemons inspired by the Aegean coastline, Ammos Aegean Vodka creates an ultra-crisp, savoury martini that feels made for sunshine-filled weekends.

A few drops of the best extra virgin olive oil and an ice-cold pour is all you need. We’re also obsessed with the striking ceramic bottle, which looks more like a piece of Mediterranean décor than a spirit bottle – definitely one dad will want to keep on display long after it’s empty.

An entire 1.2kg pork pie all to himself? Heck yeah! Dad will be super happy with this gift, and it'll be the easiest dinner he will make too. Made with quality ingredients, the award-winning, hand-made pie is best served with the brand's picalili.

Beware though, it has a shorter shelf life – not that your dad will need an excuse to get through this in good time!

Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage makes an incredibly sophisticated Father’s Day gift. Unlike regular Champagne, this bottle is only made in years when the grapes are considered especially good, which makes each release feel a little more unique and celebratory. Fresh citrus and stone fruits are balanced with richer, buttery notes, giving it a smooth, elegant taste that’s perfect for marking an occasion. Whether shared over a long lunch or opened on a summer evening, it’s a bottle that feels really special for Dad.

Who wouldn't love the idea of café-quality coffee at home? This is where the Nespresso Vertuo Up is a brilliant choice. With its ultra-slim design, quick three-second heat-up time and sleek finish, it looks seriously stylish on the worktop while delivering rich, velvety coffee.

Dad will love that it can brew everything from espresso to larger mugs and even features a dedicated mode for iced coffees. Compact, clever and wonderfully easy to use, it’s ideal for busy mornings and smaller kitchens alike.

A failsafe Father’s Day present, this letterbox-friendly hamper proves Bloom & Wild is about far more than flowers. For under £30, it packs in an impressive selection of treats, including a whisky cocktail, clotted cream fudge, carrot cake bites and a chocolate bar. Thoughtfully curated and easy to send, it’s a great-value gift that feels more generous than its price tag suggests.

Proof that you needn’t spend a fortune to show you care, Cartwright & Butler’s rich whisky fudge comes presented in a smart reusable tin and costs just £11. Sweet, creamy and suitably indulgent, it’s an easy Father’s Day win that feels far more premium than the price tag suggests.

For a Father’s Day gift that feels extra special, Cutter & Squidge’s afternoon tea hampers are hard to beat. This Father's Day themed selection includes rich chocolate fondant truffle cakes, zesty lemon poppy seed cakes, handmade scones with clotted cream and jam, plus English Breakfast tea for the full experience. It’s a generously filled hamper that brings the afternoon tea experience home — no reservation needed.

Before you buy him another bottle of whisky, why not switch things up with a tequila reposado instead? Designed to be sipped, this one delivers complex notes of caramel, vanilla and oak. The barrel ageing gives it plenty of whisky-like depth, making it an easy crossover for dads who usually reach straight for a dram.

A smart Father’s Day gift for cider lovers, The Newt’s quarterly Cyder Box subscription delivers a curated edit of standout seasonal bottles, handpicked by Cellar Master Luke Benson.

We sampled the First Fall alongside estate favourites Dabinett 2022 and Orchard Amble, plus a guest bottle and thoughtful extras including a bar of Sourdough Salted Dark Chocolate and macadamia nuts. It’s a generous, beautifully presented subscription that feels considered rather than gimmicky.

For the dad who believes a bacon sandwich can solve almost anything, The Modern Milkman’s Bacon Butty Bundle is guaranteed to go down well.

Packed with quality breakfast essentials, it contains everything needed for the ultimate weekend butty – think sizzling bacon, soft bread and all the extras for a proper comfort-food breakfast. We love the nostalgic feel paired with the brand’s sustainable delivery model, making it feel a little more thoughtful, too.

Feltham’s Farm’s The Big Five is a dream gift for serious cheese lovers. This beautifully curated set brings together all five of the farm’s award-winning organic cheeses, from the famously funky Renegade Monk to the creamy Gert Lush and fresh La Fresca Margarita. Each cheese is thoughtfully made in Somerset and are indulgent, memorable and guaranteed to impress any foodie dad.

Big Green Egg’s collaboration with Falcon Enamelware is the kind of cookware that looks just as good on the table as it does on the barbecue.

This oven-to-table pie dish is crafted from durable porcelain-fused steel and can handle temperatures up to 270°C. It's perfect for smoky pies, crumbles and hearty sharing dishes, and we love the fact it has been finished with Big Green Egg’s signature racing green trim, too.

Yes, even dad deserves a pretty mug for his morning coffee or tea and this beautiful set from Danish brand Ferm Living is ideal. Crafted from 100% stoneware and with a volume of 200ml – it's the perfect size and weight to use every day.

If your dad loves a Negroni, you can’t go wrong with this classic Italian aperitif brand. A staple for any well-stocked bar cart, it’s brilliantly versatile – equally at home in a Negroni as it is in a refreshing Garibaldi. This gift set also comes smartly boxed with a mixing spoon included, so he can brush up on his mixology skills while he pours.

If your dad is a coffee drinker, he'll love this YETI lowball tumbler. It comes in a range of colours and works really well at keeping your coffee hot (or cold!) for hours. It also works well to store a dram of whisky on ice, or a cocktail at the park. And the best part? It's entirely dishwasher safe.

Audrey’s Handcrafted Caramels are the kind of chocolates you end up hiding so they'll last longer. Made in small batches and coated in silky Valrhona milk and dark chocolate, each caramel is beautifully soft, buttery and rich.

Dad will especially love the mix of vanilla, mint, orange and chocolate varieties, which keeps every bite feeling fresh yet indulgent. Plus, the packaging is so gorgeous, it saves you wrapping it up!

Danish brand Moebe has released these beautiful oak cutting boards which would make a great gift if your dad loves to cook. It's designed with a tapered V shaped edge which gives it two main functions: to make it easy to pick up and carry, and to create a narrow edge for the board to stand on and dry after being cleaned.

If your dad is a wine buff, he'll love this sleek and modern wine decanter from ETO. Once you've poured your wine in, it's as simple as pressing down the seal until all the air has been removed and the preservation system starts, allowing the wine to be savoured over time, without compromising on quality or taste.
