Toronto's Best Father's Day Dinners
Written By
Posted Jun 15, 2021
The best Father's Day dinners in Toronto are the perfect way to cap off dad's special day. No matter how the dads in your life choose to spend their time -- parked in front of a screen, sweating up a storm, snoozing without interruption or something else entirely -- each one deserves to end Father's Day on a high note. With delivery or pickup from these top Toronto spots, nothing will be left to chance. Whether you go luxe or keep it casual, there's something here for every type of dad. Keep grill-fiends happy with ready-to-cook BBQ or pamper those who'd rather not lift a finger to an elegant meal that requires nothing more than a fancy plate.
If the dad or father figure in your life is still cocooning, not quite ready for the din of packed patios, an intimate dinner at home is the best gift. Peruse the list, pick the menu pop will prefer, and Father's Day will be perfect.
