Father’s Day is nearly here, and the businesses around Mission Bay have put together some genuinely good reasons to get the family out for the occasion. Whether Dad’s after a big feed, a quiet drink, or a delicious dessert, there’s something for him this Sunday 6 September.

🍔 Bald Eagle Diner: The Elvis Upgrade, On the House

Bald Eagle Diner is marking the day by upgrading Dad’s meal for FREE. Order any Momma’s Burger with a drink on Sunday 6 September, and Dad’s burger gets bumped up to the Elvis — a double patty — with a side of fries thrown in at no extra cost.

It’s a simple idea done well: no gimmicks, just a bigger burger for the man of the hour. Bring the kids, grab a booth, and let Dad eat like a king for a change.

When: Sunday 6 September
Where: Bald Eagle Diner, 89 Tamaki Drive, Mission Bay

🍷 Mission Thai: A Complimentary Glass for Dad

Right next door at Mission Thai, every dad who’s booked in for Father’s Day gets a glass of wine on the house. It’s a nice touch for anyone planning a proper sit-down meal rather than a quick bite.

When: Sunday 6 September
Where: The Mission Thai, 93 Tamaki Drive, Mission Bay

Bookings are essential — reserve online or call 09 600 1459 ahead of the day.

🍽️ Mission Bay Café and Bistro: Take Your Pick

Mission Bay Café and Bistro is running two separate offers from Sunday 6 through Tuesday 8 September, and Dad only needs to choose one:

– A burger and beer combo for $32.90 any time of day — his choice of burger alongside either a 350ml tap beer or a glass of Poco vino;
Or
– At dinner, order an entrée and a main and dessert comes free.

Worth deciding in advance which one suits the visit, since it’s one or the other, not both.

When: Sunday 6 September to Tuesday 8 September
Where: Mission Bay Cafe & Bistro, 85 Tamaki Drive, Mission Bay

🍺 Mission Bay Taproom: The Father’s Day Schnitty

For something heartier, Mission Bay Taproom has put together a Father’s Day Schnitty for $32— parmesan-crumbed, topped with a fried egg, served alongside apple slaw and a cider and mustard gravy. It’s the kind of plate that pairs itself with a beer.

When: Sunday 6 September
Where: Mission Bay Tap Room, 71 Tamaki Drive, Mission Bay

Between a free burger upgrade, a glass of wine, a shot at $50 vouchers, and a couple of solid feeds, Mission Bay has Father’s Day well covered this year. Get the whole family together and make the most of it this weekend!.
