Share a Great Escape
Escapism and Breakout Chester offer exciting challenges for two or more players. Tackle a variety of escape rooms against the clock as a family or with just you and dad with themes featuring cursed carnivals, Arthurian Legends, museum heists and mutants.
Hunt for treasure
You may instead wish to become pirates for a day with your dad and play Treasure Hunt Chester on your smartphone.

Brew award-winning ale
Chester Brewhouse and Kitchen will let you and your dad get hands-on under the tutelage of master brewers. The pub and restaurant has an award-winning microbrewery and offers immersive beermaking days that include breakfast, lunch and plenty of beers, plus a takeaway mini keg to remember your fantastic Father’s Day.
Taste cheese and wine
Esteemed cellar bar Vin Santo offers tasting days, but if one isn’t available around Father’s Day, you can create your own. Enjoy white Riesling from Germany, Primitivo from Italy and select Malbec’s all the way from Argentina, and for just £12, order three cheeses and an assortment of crackers to complement them.
Paddle the Dee
Finally for fathers, sons and daughters who like to keep fit, Paddle the Dee can’t be beat. The recently rebranded company offers unbeatable river adventures including kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding and white-water thrills.
