Father’s Day, find a gift that feels like him

Father’s Day is Sunday 6 September 2026, which means August is the perfect time to start thinking beyond the traditional gift card and find something that genuinely reflects the dad, stepdad, grandfather or father figure you are celebrating.

The best gifts are often the ones that connect with the things he already loves. Whether he is happiest behind the barbecue, particular about his grooming routine, always looking for the perfect bottle or never leaves home without his sunglasses, Kiaora Place makes it easy to find something with a little more thought behind it.

For the dad who takes cooking seriously, start with 1888 Certified. Its paddock-to-plate approach puts quality produce at the centre, making it a natural destination for the home chef who appreciates exceptional ingredients. Pair a premium cut of meat with something from the gourmet pantry and you have a gift that can become the centrepiece of a Father's Day lunch. Woolworths is also ideal for picking up the finishing touches, from speciality ingredients to something delicious to share around the table.

For the stylish dad, Bladez & Co offers a more considered approach to grooming, combining premium products and techniques with an experience that feels polished and personal. It is a particularly good option for the dad who appreciates looking after himself but rarely makes time to do so.

For the dad who spends weekends outdoors, a quality pair of sunglasses from Eye Mechanics can be both practical and stylish. A visit to the optometrist also offers the opportunity to find eyewear that suits his lifestyle and personal style.

For the drinks enthusiast, Dan Murphys offers plenty of possibilities, whether his preference is a beautifully made wine, craft beer, whisky or something new to add to his collection. The team can also help you find a bottle that feels personal rather than predictable.

Father's Day does not need to be complicated. The most memorable gifts are the ones that say, "This made me think of you."

Start your Father's Day shopping at Kiaora Place, the vibrant heart of Double Bay, and find something that feels unmistakably him.
