Father’s Day on Sunday June 16th is a time to celebrate all the wonderful Dads out there. What have you got planned for him? If, like us, nothing yet (!) here’s a handy guide to cool gift and experience suggestions in and around Surrey that he’ll love and treasure you for!
FATHER’S DAY FESTIVAL

See www.foxhills.co.uk (winner of the Best Hotel at the Surrey Awards 2024) to make a booking now.
TREAT HIM TO A TREATMENT
Men are definitely more proactive in their approach to grooming these days! We can thank the likes of David Beckham and Harry Styles for this, who advocate regular facials and put the ‘MAN’ into Manicure! It’s certainly considered more acceptable for men to head to a spa or beauty salon – either as a relaxing way to forget about the stresses and strains of life or as preparation for a special event or maybe just because it makes them feel good! This Father’s Day get him a pamper session; be it a facial, massage or an aesthetic treatment visit J’Adore La Beaute & Esthetique in East Molesey for offers on male grooming for your wonderful Dad. See www.jadorelabeaute.co.uk for more details on treatments and offers.
SUITS HIM SIR
Get him a suit that will last forever and always look on trend! Howard & Co Attire (winner of the Best Men’s Fashion at the Surrey Awards 2024) have created the ultimate tailoring for men wanting to look at their dapper best. Be it for business, work, weddings, or special events and occasions, Howard & Co Attire give a full contrast look of empowerment with their range of suits and accessories. A perfect gift for Father’s Day this June! See www.howardandcoattire.com for more information.
SUNDAY LUNCH
They say a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. So, what better treat for Father’s Day (and to give your poor old Mum/Dad a break!) is to treat him to a delicious Sunday Lunch at one of Surrey’s most highly respected restaurants/pubs. And you are spoilt for choice this Father’s Day! We have tried and tested some of the best Roasts in Surrey and can highly recommend Kinghams in Shere, The Watermill in Dorking, The Black Swan in Ockham, The Seven Stars in Ripley, The Gosling in Woking, The Victoria in Oxshott, The Garden House in Leatherhead, The Running Mare & The Bear in Cobham, The Plough & Harrow in Long Ditton, Langleys in Surbiton, The Fox & Finch in Godalming, plus all three Coppa Clubs in Cobham, Haslemere and Guildford. Bon Appetit!
BROFATHER
Surrey Rocks is loving the newly coined phrase… brofather. The Urban Dictionary describes a brofather as, “An extremely cool dad. One that is a “bro” and a “father”. One that always has your back, and can easily be considered one of your closest friends, yet is a dad when he needs to be.” Trending on social media are the cutest clips of fathers and sons enjoying spending quality time together. If you head to www.bizay.co.uk you can get cute pics turned into mugs, T-shirts or just framed for the ultimate in Father’s Day gifting, now with 20% off for new customers! Or we love these cool Family Tees pictured on www.etsy.com (Are you a brofather? We’d love to hear your stories in our upcoming Modern Parenting feature. Get in touch via info@rocksmag.com)
