Trying to think of the perfect birthday gift idea for Dad?
Do your requests for suggestions often get greeted with “I don’t need anything!”?
Whilst that’s sweet, we all know it’s not very helpful!
Not to worry though, as here at hampers.com, we’ve been thinking about those hard-to-buy-for dads and have come up with a selection of recommendations based on what you know your dad will love.
Whether it’s a special milestone birthday… 40th, 50th, 60th or more… or simply another year of wanting to show your dad that he’s no. 1 – explore our wide range of gifts that will bring pure delight.
Birthday gift ideas for Dad based on what he likes to enjoy
Take a moment and think about what you know your dad loves.
What does he like to do?
How does he relax?
What will bring the broadest smile to his face?
Whether it’s a family gathering or a quieter affair, what will add to his perfect day?
Below, we have a range of hampers based on Dad’s possible favourite tipple, as well as some classic combinations for foodie dads.
Rum Hampers
Is a classic rum and coke a favourite drink of your dad's?
Why not ‘spice’ it up a little for his upcoming birthday with one of our rum hampers from our Spirits and Cocktails Collection?
The Spiced Rum and Chocolates Hamper is the perfect ‘something a little extra’ for Dad’s birthday this year. It includes a bottle of The Kraken Black Spiced Rum, cola and ginger ale mixers, alongside the finest dark chocolate and fudge.
Whiskey Hampers
For the whiskey or whisky connoisseur (trust us he’ll know the difference), we have a lovely range of keepsake birthday gifts.
Our Spirit Hampers Range, once again, includes a lovely, hand-curated selection of some fine malt whisky from Scotland, as well as premium blended whiskey from Ireland. Choose one that you know Dad will love.
One of our favourites (although we love them all equally…just like dad and all his children…!) has to be the Premium Whisky and Food Gift Basket, thanks to its wonderful combination of Scotch paired with cheese, crackers and a whole almond-topped Dundee Cake....the perfect birthday cake!
Beer Hampers
Another birthday…just another beer gift? Not this year!
Choose something truly unique for Dad’s birthday. Whilst you know he loves a pint, why not select a birthday beer hamper that offers something a little extra?
We have Beer Hampers which include craft beers, real ale and lager.
To complement his favourite type of beer, you then have a wide choice of delicious accompaniments from cheese to chocolate and beyond.
As a great example, the Craft Beer Hamper includes three cans of Tap Social Craft beers. Plus, there is an array of pub-inspired snacks, including snacking pickles! We think this is one of the best birthday gift ideas for Dad, yet.
Cheese Hampers
We’ve done birthday beverages, so now let’s explore some foodie favourites.
Is your dad a bit of a turophile – an absolute cheese lover?
Add something a little special to the cheese board on his birthday this year with one of our delicious Cheese Hampers.
There are so many to choose from and paired with port, red wine, cider, beer or fizz too.
There are also alcohol-free alternatives, including the little Cheese and Nibbles Gift Set which includes a truckle of Snowdonia Red Storm - a smooth cheese with a hint of caramel…and a name that sounds like a superhero!
Treat your dad…your very own superhero to this lovely hamper on his birthday.
