Father's Day is just around the corner, and with it comes the opportunity to show some love to the father figures in our lives. Whether it's your dad, stepdad, grandad, or someone who’s been like a dad to you, this is the perfect time to say, "Thanks for everything… and sorry for never laughing at your jokes." And what better way to say it than with one of our thoughtfully curated gift hampers for dad, packed with treats he’ll genuinely enjoy (and not just pretend to like)?
There’s lots to love about our dads, but the most groan-worthy way? The dad joke! The most eye-roll-inducing form of humour known to man. But also, somehow, one of the most endearing. Because behind every pun and awkward pause is a simple truth: Dads just want to make us smile. Even if it's through terrible wordplay.
Why We Love (and Tolerate) Dad Jokes
Dad jokes are a rite of passage. No matter who your dad is, the moment he cracked his first pun he earned his stripes. He became part of a long-standing tradition of cringe-worthy comedy.
"I’m reading a book about anti-gravity. It’s impossible to put down!"
But here's the thing: these jokes work. Maybe not because they’re funny (although some are), but because they’re full of love, personality and a unique kind of silliness that’s hard to resist.
And, let’s face it, there’s something comforting about a dad who tells bad jokes. It says, "I’m not trying to be cool. I just want to make you laugh." And that’s makes us love them more!
Say It with Snacks: Gift Hampers for Dad
There’s another way to raise a smile and say thank you on Father’s Day. Sometimes, the best way to show appreciation is through snacks, sips and a well-chosen selection of his favourite treats. That’s where our Father’s Day gift hampers come in.
Whether your dad is a fan of craft beer, has a sweet tooth, or just loves a nibble while watching the footie, there’s something in our range that will suit him to a T (or a tea, if he’s more of a brew-and-biscuits kind of bloke).
Here are a few of our favourites, each with their own pun-laced twist...
The Father's Day Delight Hamper
Full of sweet treats and personalised touches, this hamper is perfect for the dad who deserves a little indulgence.
"What do you call a fake noodle? An impasta."
Chocolate, fudge, crisps and a choice of beer. Sounds like a recipe for delight (and probably some loud crunching from the sofa).
The Cheers to You Father’s Day Beer Hamper
If your dad’s idea of relaxing involves a cold pint, this one’s for him. With beer, cider and classic pub snacks, it’s the next best thing to a night down the local.
"I only drink on days that start with T: Tuesday, Thursday, today, tomorrow..."
It’s a Father’s Day beer hamper that raises a glass to his sense of humour—and his impeccable snack selection skills.
To an Amazing Dad Hamper
Classy, understated and full of gourmet goodies, this one’s ideal for the ‘quiet chuckler’ kind of dad. The one who delivers his jokes with a straight face but still expects applause.
"I asked my popcorn if it wanted to hear a joke. It said, "I’m all ears."
Sweet and salty, just like his one-liners.
The Ultimate Man Cave Hamper
Snacks, beer and proper man cave energy. Give him a reason to hibernate in his shed, garage, or armchair and he’ll thank you between mouthfuls of crisps.
"I made a table out of beer cans once. It was very un-stable."
This one’s perfect for the DIY Dad who swears he “meant to do that.”
Name Your Tavern: The Personalised Pub Hamper
Put your dad’s name above the door with a custom pub sign and a line-up of beers. Cheers to that!
"I named my home bar 'The Gym' so when I say I’m at the Gym, it’s not a lie."
It’s a pub. It’s personal. It’s packed with pun potential.
The Perfect Pairing: Dad Jokes and Hampers
When you think about it, dad jokes and hampers have a lot in common. They're both thoughtful, they’re full of surprises and they bring a smile to your face. One delivers delicious snacks; the other delivers wordplay that’s just as hard to forget (or forgive).
This Father’s Day, why not combine the two? Pop a printed joke in the card. Share one at the breakfast table. Or better yet, choose a hamper that you know he’ll love.
A Thoughtful Gift That’s More Than a Laugh
While the jokes might be light-hearted, the sentiment behind them isn’t. Giving your dad a well-chosen hamper shows that you’ve thought about what he likes, what makes him smile and what helps him unwind. It’s a small gesture that can make a big difference.
And when paired with a good laugh? That’s a gift that sticks.
So whether you’re looking for gift hampers for dad, a Father’s Day beer hamper, or something packed with chocolate and character, we’ve got you covered. Add in a bad joke or two, and you’ve got a winning Father’s Day formula.
Just don’t be surprised if he starts reading them all out loud.
