Full list of Father’s Day meal deals including at Harvester and Tesco – and a free pint
FATHER’S Day is just around the corner, which means that many retailers have launched deals to treat your dad.
This year, the special day lands on Sunday, June 16, so to help you prepare, we have put together a list of deals and freebies on offer next weekend.
If you’re stuck for ideas or have left buying a gift to the last minute and don’t have time to get something for your dad, a meal out could be a good way to redeem yourself.
Many restaurants are offering deals for Father’s Day – and you should always remember to shop around to find the best prices.
Here, we list the best deals we have found that could help make your dad’s day a little more special this year.

The chain of Italian-American-themed restaurants says dads feeling brave can also take on the Frankie’s Feaster, which includes chicken wings, steak skewer, crispy chicken goujons, sticky BBQ ribs, BBQ beans, slaw & fries.
Free pint for dad at Bella Italia
Free pints seem to be a popular perk this year, as Bella Italia is giving a complimentary Stella Artois with every booking on June 16.

Free wine at Harvester
For Father’s Day this year, Harvester is offering a free bottle of Casillero del Diablo wine to those using the code “TREATDAD” at checkout when buying a £50 eGift card that can be used to pay for a meal out.
Free drink at Hungry Horse
Hungry Horse is also offering free drinks to those booking a table for Father’s Day on either June 15 or June 16.
The offer includes a free Madri, Coors, Carling, Coca-Cola, Schweppes Lemonade or draft soft drink alternative for dads.

The offer is available to Pizza Express Club Members on June 15 and June 16 and applies to dine in and set menu items only.

What can I get with Tesco Clubcard?
TESCO'S Clubcard scheme allows shoppers to earn points as they shop.
These points can then be turned into vouchers for money off food at the supermarket, or discounts at other places like restaurants and days out.
Each time you spend £1 in-store and online, you get one point when you scan your Clubcard.
Drivers using the loyalty card get one point for every two litres spent on fuel.
One point equals 1p, so 150 points gets you a £1.50 money-off voucher, for example.
You can double their worth when you swap them for discounts with “reward partners”.
For example, £12 worth of vouchers can be swapped for a £24 three-month subscription to Disney+.
Or you can swap 50p worth of points for £1 to spend at Hungry Horse pubs.
Where you can spend them changes regularly, and you can check on the Tesco website what’s available now.
Tesco shoppers can also get Clubcard prices when they have the loyalty card.
The discounted items change regularly and without a Clubcard you’ll pay a higher price.
These Clubcard prices are usually labelled on shelves, along with the non-member price.
But it’s worth noting that just because it’s discounted doesn’t necessarily make it the cheapest around, and you should compare prices to find the best deal.
You can sign up to get a Tesco Clubcard in store or online via the Tesco website.
Unlimited breakfast buffet at Brewers Fayre
Brewers Fayre regularly organises special deals for Father’s Day and this year is no exception.

How to bag a bargain
SUN Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to find a cut-price item and bag a bargain...
Sign up to loyalty schemes of the brands that you regularly shop with.
Big names regularly offer discounts or special lower prices for members, among other perks.
Sales are when you can pick up a real steal.
Retailers usually have periodic promotions that tie into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends, so keep a lookout and shop when these deals are on.
Sign up to mailing lists and you’ll also be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.
When buying online, always do a search for money off codes or vouchers that you can use vouchercodes.co.uk and myvouchercodes.co.uk are just two sites that round up promotions by retailer.
Scanner apps are useful to have on your phone. Trolley.co.uk app has a scanner that you can use to compare prices on branded items when out shopping.
Bargain hunters can also use B&M’s scanner in the app to find discounts in-store before staff have marked them out.
And always check if you can get cashback before paying which in effect means you’ll get some of your money back or a discount on the item.
Earlier this week, we also listed six incredible Father’s Day gift ideas under £50 including a Beavertown beer bundle featuring 18 of the brand’s best-selling craft beers for £40, and a Hugo Boss black leather bracelet for £49.
If your dad needs a new pair of shorts, M&S is selling a comfortable pair for £30, and if he’s looking for a new electric shaver, then the 3000X Series Wet & Dry Electric Shaver, costing £50, could be a good option.
For perfume-loving dads, The Essence Vault is offering a perfume set for £44.95 – down from £59.80.
And if your dad is an adrenaline-seeker but your budget is too low for jumping out of a plane, you could consider booking an indoor skydiving experience.
The iFLY Indoor Skydiving for Two Off-Peak is priced at £49.99 – down £99.98 – thanks to Virgin Experience Days.
Always remember to shop around to find any further deals we might have missed.
But whatever you do to celebrate the special occasion, enjoy the day to the fullest to celebrate your dad, or any father figures in your life.
