The Kinsey Spirit Trio is available online at New Liberty Distillery’s website and is also available for purchase on-site at the distillery itself.
If dad is more of a gin drinker, another local distillery just released a new product that would make a great gift. Philadelphia Distilling now sells a gin made specifically to use for seltzer cocktails.
Ocean Prime
From 3-8 p.m., the restaurant will feature its dinner menu for dine-in or carryout. Also, Ocean Prime’s most popular cocktails, the Berries + Bubbles and the Prime Manhattan, are available to take home in a cocktail kit with truffle popcorn for $45.
Silk City Diner
To celebrate Father's Day, there will be a surf and turf special available on Sunday from 4-9 p.m. at the retro diner in Philly. Dad can enjoy Silk’s summer filet and jumbo shrimp skewer ($20). The meal includes filet tips, gulf shrimp, tri-colored bell peppers, red onion, locally-sourced mushrooms, ramp butter and an arugula and heirloom tomato salad.
A pint of Philadelphia Brewing Co.'s Kenzinger beer or a glass of peach iced tea is included with the skewer.
Sabrina's Café
Over in Jersey, Sabrina’s Café is cooking up delicious burgers on the outdoor grill at their Collingswood location this Sunday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The Dad’s Breakfast Burger is made with an 8-ounce patty of beef, cheddar cheese and an over-easy egg on brioche, served with chips and water, available for takeout.
Sabrina's also is bringing its weekend brunch to the Shore this summer.
More Options
If you're unsure what to gift dad for Father's Day, Reading Terminal Market has a lot of options for dads who love food. You could also spend the day there together, either sitting down for lunch or shopping for items to cook at home.
Parks on Tap also will be open at two locations in the city if you're looking for an outdoor place to hang out together on the holiday.
Another suggestion is to shop Occasionette, Art Star or The Little Apple for creative gifts and cards for dad.
There's also the option to cook a seafood feast for dad with Oyster House's new kits.
Whatever you choose to do to celebrate Father's Day, remember that it's the thought that counts.
