He's probably still wearing that old watch he got years ago, so this might be the nudge he needs to finally upgrade to something that actually does more than tell the time.

He might not need another physical gift, but a trip to the cinema is something he'll actually use — especially if there's a film he's been meaning to catch.

He probably has a go-to bottle he reaches for on special occasions, but a high-end wine is the kind of gift that actually feels like an upgrade. Worth every penny for Father's Day.

A good cologne is something most dads wouldn't buy themselves, which makes it a genuinely thoughtful last-minute pick.

If your dad's the type who takes his morning brew seriously, a gourmet coffee selection gives him something genuinely worth savouring — different origins, roast profiles, and flavours to work through at his own pace.

If he's the type to pour a proper whisky or mix himself an old fashioned at the end of the day, he deserves a glass that's actually worth drinking from.

If your dad's the type who likes a proper game night, a domino set is one of those gifts that actually gets used rather than put on a shelf.

If he's still got a record player gathering dust in the corner, this is the excuse he needs to finally plug it back in.

If your dad's the type who'd rather be doing something than sitting still, this is a no-brainer. Ziplines, treetops, fresh air — it's the kind of day out he'll actually talk about afterwards.

If he's a whisky fan, this is the kind of gift that actually gets him out of the house and doing something he'll genuinely enjoy.

A vineyard tour is one of those gifts that feels far more considered than it is. Book it last minute, hand him the details, and he'll think you planned it weeks ago.

Not every dad wants another tie. If yours appreciates a bit of culture, an art gallery tour is a genuinely solid idea — and you can usually book it last minute without any fuss.

A stone cheese board looks impressive on any table and he'll actually use it, not just leave it in a cupboard.
