The weather is getting warmer, which means Father’s Day is fast approaching. And if there’s one thing that has become a Father’s Day gift staple, it’s the necktie. So, given that, and the fact we’re on a food site, let’s check out some of the best food ties for Father’s Day. Wait. Food ties? Yes. Food ties. Just go with it. It’ll be fun! Particularly if you have a dad in the house who likes to cook and host.
Chicken Wings & Legs
Chicken Wing Necktie, $18.95 on Amazon
Do you have a wing junkie dad? If so, he can loudly and proudly proclaim his proclivity for chicken wings with this neck garment. It’s navy with small patterned orange wings, so it should “go” with a bunch of dad wardrobe staples. Like jeans. And khakis.Buy Now
Chicken Leg Tie, $24.38 on Etsy
If he prefers drumsticks, this fried chicken leg tie is also pretty understated, and would pair well with most of dad’s wardrobe.Buy Now
Hot Dogs
Hot Dog Tie, $26.95 on Amazon
I don’t know about you, but there are few father-child pastime activities like watching a ballgame. And the signature food staple at the ballgame? Hot dogs, of course (no offense to peanuts and Cracker Jack). If you and your pop spent time chowing down on some franks at the game, this tie might have a particular sentimentality. What’s more, because of the pattern and colors, he might be able to get away with incorporating it into his bi-weekly tie rotation for work (if he still wears a tie for work…).Buy Now
Hot Dog Tie with Mustard, $18.95 on Amazon
Do you think he’d prefer something that makes more of a…statement? Can’t go wrong with this bad boy. Who wouldn’t want to wear a picture of a giant hot dog on a glorified scarf hanging from their neck?Buy Now
Tacos
Silk Fish Taco Tie, $55 on Amazon
Is your dad angling to eat tacos every Tuesday? And Friday? And Saturday? Maybe he’d appreciate a taco tie. This one features the fish variety, and is a bit more subdued.Buy Now
Beef Taco Tie, $9.98 on Amazon
Want something more in-your-face to match dad’s in-your-face demeanor? I’d go with this one, with large, detailed taco illustrations on a lime-green background. Perfect.Buy Now
Pizza
Pepperoni Pizza Tie, $28 on Amazon
I think I’ve only met one person who’s ever claimed to dislike pizza, and for all I know, it was a joke. Had to be, right? Who doesn’t like pizza? So, chances are, your dad likes pizza. Which is why this tie would be perfect. Alright, alright, this tie is perfect because it’s unapologetically a close-up pic of pepperoni and cheese. I wouldn’t wear this to court, but a family party? Game on!Buy Now
Sushi
Black Sushi Tie, $18.95 on Amazon
Does your dad love sushi? Is he the kind of guy that loves to make dad jokes with silly puns? If he doesn’t take things too seriously, he might get a kick out of this tie that features pictures of sushi. If so, this one is your best bet.Buy Now
White Sushi Tie, $4.95 on Amazon
That being said, if your dad is the kind of guy that would be more appreciative of a tie that he can incorporate more seamlessly into his wardrobe, here’s one that’s a little less in your face.Buy Now
Cherry Pie
Cherry Pie Tie, $17.20 on Amazon
Is your old man a pie guy? Maybe he bakes. Maybe he makes sure to pick up pie for every family gathering. Maybe he just eats a lot of pie. Whatever the case may be, this clever cherry pie tie with a lattice crust pattern could be just the thing to give to dad for his day.Buy Now
Fast Food
Junk Food Tie, $5.92 on Amazon
Burger? Fries? Pizza? Guys love that stuff (Yes, I know not every guy). This tie incorporates it all. But, the thing I like? It’s not super obnoxious. It’s patterned in a way that could allow you to get away with wearing this without too much trouble in multiple settings. And the colors are light and summery.Buy Now
Tacos & Pizza…& a Cat
Taco-Pizza-Cat Tie, $9.11 on Amazon
Does your dad hate wearing ties? Does he think it’s a ridiculous, antiquated, nonsensical part of a man’s attire? Does he appreciate rubbing people’s faces in arbitrary or arcane practices, and showing the world who’s boss? If that sounds like your pops, he’d love this tie. “Oh, I have to wear a tie? How do you like this tie!” It’s a cat. Eating pizza. And a taco. It makes no sense. And if your dad is what was just described above, he thinks wearing ties makes no sense, and he’ll love it.Buy Now
Salmon
Salmon Tie Clip, $24.99 on Amazon
Is dad an accessorizer? He might enjoy a tie clip. “What’s a tie clip?” you ask? Well, it’s a clip, that holds your tie in place. Tie clips are still somewhat in style, and they are extremely functional. I hate when my tie slides around and doesn’t stay centered. If your dad could use one (and he likes salmon), this one will do the trick.Buy Now
Steak
Steak Tie Clip, $24.99 on Amazon
Maybe daddio would really appreciate a tie clip, but he’s not a seafood guy. If he’s the type that prefers steak, never fear! You can get a laser-engraved steak one instead!Buy Now
That does it for me. Hopefully you got some great ideas. As a dad, I’m gonna let you in a little secret. At the end of the day, we like to laugh, spend time with our kids, and eat on Father’s Day. If we get a gift, it’s icing on the cake. Some of these ties (or clips) will bring a laugh. Others might actually slide into his wardrobe on a regular basis. Whatever the case, as long as you’re there giving it to him, he’ll be a happy camper. And if you can’t be there in person, try to Facetime him. Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there!
