Nest’s ultimate Father’s Day gift guide

Check out our edit of non-naff gifts for Father’s Day, all under £100

Father's Day is just around the corner, and it's time to celebrate the amazing dads in our lives with gifts that show just how much they mean to us. However… we don’t know about you, but Sophie and I often find a lot of Father’s Day gifts a bit gimmicky or cringe-inducing so we’ve done the hard work to sort out the wheat from the chaff and find those good-looking gifts that will please both daddies and the rest of the family alike. Our ultimate Father's Day gift guide has something perfect for every kind of dad, whether you’ve got a keen chef in the house (or one who just likes to eat), a gardener, a cool dad, or a brand-new dad. Dive in to discover the best Father's Day gifts of 2024.

For the designer dad – who also likes a tipple

Have you got a partner who loves a cheeky snifter after a long day? These Tom Dixon Tank whiskey glasses are giving Mad Men vibes and they’ll also look good on display too in a home bar – that’s a win-win in our book.

For the Masterchef wannabe 

For the budding chef in your life, they will LOVE this clever new cookware range from Joseph Joseph. Not only do the pans look the part, there’s some nifty engineering at play here too – they come with innovative folding handles, designed to save up to 50% more space. That’s 50% more space to fill your pan drawers with extra lovely cookware items you definitely (probably don’t) need…

For those with green fingers

This planter is a great piece of kit for growing herbs and a present that the kids will love joining in with too. The VegTrug Herb Garden is made from 100% FSC-certified durable cedar wood with 8 handy pockets to keep the herbs separate, plus a shelf underneath for storing dad’s garden equipment. Positioned close to the kitchen, it’s great for adding that little pizazz to your family meals (or grown-up drinks).

For the daddy of BBQs

I don’t know about you, but in our house, barbecues are a very serious business, so it’s important to have the right tools for the job. If you’ve got a dad who loves a barbie as much as we do, then he’ll be over the moon with this fab set of barbecue tools in its chic khaki canvas case. The set includes a two-pronged fork, a spatula, basting brush and tongs.

For the snacker

If dad is just as bad as the kids for constantly raiding the fridge and the pantry, this one’s for them. Thoroughly British fare, there are pork pies, sausage rolls, cheese scones, chutney, tea and Prosecco (you may even be able to convince him to share a glass or two with you too).

If you’ve recently welcomed a new addition to the family, this personalised gift box from my 1st Years is a super-cute memento that he’ll treasure for years to come.

For all the fathers out there…

Even if we don’t say it often, it’s sometimes nice for them to get a daily reminder that we do love them really (with the added bonus of a caffeine hit) and it’s a cute gift to give from the kids too.
