Finding the Best Food and Fun For Father's Day in Dunwoody
Everyone knows the quickest way to the heart of a man is through his stomach.
Everyone also knows that major cities like Atlanta are a nightmare during holidays. Your best bet is to travel outside Atlanta, for about 10 miles, into the city of Dunwoody. We have food, and we especially have fun.
The Food
We don't know any men who walk away from the Dunwoody restaurant scene disappointed. That is probably because we cater to the five major food groups for men - steak, burgers, barbecue, beer, and dessert. Let dad choose from any of the recommendations below and he'll walk away full of food and happiness.
Barbecue
What man doesn't like to get his hands dirty? If dad is hankering for some good old-fashioned barbecue, we recommend the following: Porter BBQ & Brewery
Beer
Kick back and relax with a cold one while you talk about those fun, childhood memories. Dad raised you right after all, so why not cheers to that? Here are some places where he's guaranteed to find some good brews: Bar{n}, Brass Tap, Moondog Growlers, Porter BBQ & Brewery, Dunwoody Tavern.
Dessert:
It's his day, let him have his cake and eat it too. There's plenty to go around at Cafe Intermezzo. No, seriously. They have so many decadent desserts here, it will be hard to pick one piece. Or, venture to Paris Baguette to grab an assortment and let him pick macarons, pastries, eclairs, and more.
The Fun
Give Dad a break from the yard work and housework and treat him to something fun! Dunwoody's green space and parks offer the perfect setting for a game of catch or to take a little stroll together as a family. And when all else fails, there's always sports! We've already done most of the work for you. Dear ol' dad would have a great time at an Atlanta United game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium or an Atlanta Braves game at Truist Park because honestly who wouldn't? And if you can't make it to a game, there's always the nearby College Football Hall of Fame which is a hit for any sports fan during any time of the year.
Go above and beyond your usual Father's Day festivities by taking dad to Dunwoody. It's the perfect destination for the perfect guy.
