• American River Paddle: Rent kayaks or paddleboards on Lake Natoma or Nimbus Flat for a relaxing day on the water.
Get your rentals here.
• Fishing Excursion: A guided trip along the Sacramento River is a great gift for dads who love a quiet morning with a rod and reel —and if you’re more of a DIY type, you can always plan your own personal fishing day, too. Check out the best spots and tips here: Fishing in Sacramento.
• Brewery Tour: Hit a few of Sacramento’s best breweries like Urban Roots, SacYard, or New Glory for flights and food.

Where to Eat with Dad:
A hearty meal is always a win, especially when it’s served with a cold drink and good company.

• Tank House BBQ: Head to Midtown for smoky, fall-off-the-bone ribs and tender brisket at Tank House BBQ, a local favorite with a laid-back vibe and solid craft beer selection.
• Bacon & Butter: Start your day right with a hearty brunch at Bacon & Butter, known for its farm-to-table comfort food, generous portions, and mouthwatering pancakes.
• The Firehouse: For a special night out, visit The Firehouse in Old Sacramento for refined American cuisine and an expansive wine list.

Gift Ideas He’ll Actually Use:

• Local Finds: Check out Bonobos in Sacramento for polished menswear and wardrobe staples with a modern fit, or book a relaxing experience at Hammer & Nails, where he can enjoy expert beard care, haircuts, and hand and foot treatments in a refined, masculine space.
• For the Golfer: A session at Haggin Oaks Golf Super Shop or a custom club fitting makes for a gift he’ll remember.
• Experience Gifts: Plan a lake day, family hike, fishing charter, or purchase tickets to a summer concert at Thunder Valley or Golden 1 Center.

 

Set the Scene:

• Create Shade: Stay cool in style with a pergola or shade sail that provides both comfort and charm.
• Add Outdoor Lighting: String lights, lanterns, or solar path lights instantly elevate your backyard ambiance for long summer evenings.
• Bring the Fire: Cozy up with a propane fire table or a sleek, smokeless option like the Solo Stove, perfect for late-night chats and roasting s’mores.

Outdoor Cooking & Dining:

• Upgrade the Grill Zone: Make your backyard the go-to BBQ spot with a built-in grill, griddle, or smoker.
• Pizza Night, Elevated: The Ooni Koda turns outdoor dinners into events—crispy pizza in just 60 seconds.
• Stylish Furniture: Shop outdoor furniture that blends comfort and style at Pottery World, Terra Outdoor Living, or California Backyard.

Low-Maintenance Landscaping:
