Edinburgh's a great place to give your Dad to a bit of Father's Day attention, with restaurants and events across the city primed to suit your old man.
If your Dad's a Motown man, The Granary host a classic soul night on Friday 17th June that runs til the wee small hours, or if you're looking of imaginative ways to tell him he's 'Simply The Best', Brunton Theatre hosts a Tina Turner tribute showcasing with the diva's back catalogue. Alternatively if he's a comedy fan, Monkey Barrel Comedy hits The Beehive Inn on Friday and Saturday, providing a potential break from the cringeworthy dad jokes.
