Father’s Day Gift Ideas at The Maynard
If you’re searching for a Father’s Day gift that’s a little more meaningful (and a lot more delicious), we’ve got you covered at The Maynard in Grindleford. Whether he’s a foodie, a wine lover, or just deserves a cracking day out in the Peak District, here are four great ways to show your appreciation for the Dad in your life this Father’s Day.
1. A Savoury Twist on Afternoon Tea
If your dad prefers a pork pie and a pint over a finger sandwiches and fizz, our Savoury Afternoon Tea is the perfect choice for a memorable experience.
Served Monday to Saturday from 12 to 5pm, this hearty take on a British classic includes:
- A fish finger buttie with tartare sauce
- Ginger Butcher’s pork pie with piccalilli
- Sausage roll, Scotch egg, and a roast beef Yorkshire pudding
- A Stilton and walnut scone and chocolate brownie for good measure
Plus a pint of ale, lager or fizz.
It’s indulgent, it’s handcrafted, and it’s guaranteed to put a smile on his face.
Available Monday to Saturday (pre-booking required).

2. Treat Him to a Wine-Lover’s DINING EXPERIENCE – Meet the Maker Wine Dinner
If Dad’s more grapes and good chat than gardening gloves and golf tees, this one’s for him.
On Thursday 19th June from 7pm, we’re hosting a Meet the Maker evening with Henners Vineyard, alongside Hattersley Wines and Master of Wine, Mike Best.
What to expect:
- A beautifully curated three-course dinner

- Behind-the-bottle stories and brilliant company

It’s the ultimate gift for dads who enjoy the finer things in life (and you’ll get serious brownie points for a gift idea that’s not socks or smellies).
