It’s time to show Dad some extra love and appreciation, and the Memorial District is the perfect place to do it! We have everything you need right here in the District, including great gifts, memorable dining experiences, and events the whole family can enjoy. Read on for some fabulous Father’s Day ideas.

If your dad loves sports, treat him to a new jersey or his favorite team’s ball cap from Academy Sports and Outdoors (9734 Katy Fwy). If he’s an avid outdoorsman, he will surely enjoy the latest hunting, fishing, or camping gear as he prepares for summertime adventures, so pay a visit to Fishing Tackle Unlimited (10303 Katy Fwy), too.

Speaking of upcoming adventures, we think the men’s collection by Brahmin is a great place to find bags that can function as an airplane carry-on, a weekend carryall, or an office tote. The versatile Beckett tote is always impressive, whether Dad uses it for vacation or in the office. Find a variety of wallets, travel bags, business bags, and backpacks at the retailer’s CITYCENTRE location (796 Town and Country Blvd., Suite 110).

Coach (740 Memorial City Way) offers classic wallets, briefcases, duffel bags, and more that will make any dad’s day. A timeless fragrance, like Coach for Men eau de Toilette, is sure to be a hit. You can also find some unexpected items like an Apple watch strap, slide-on slippers for lounging by the pool, or even a leather jacket.

 

Then, you could pick out Father’s Day treats from Three Brothers Bakery (12393 Kingsride Lane). Stay on the holiday theme with their deliciously humorous cupcakes decorated with a mustache or a shirt and tie made of frosting. Or, if Dad has a favorite sweet treat, choose from their everyday menu of scrumptious breads, cakes, cookies, and pies. They even sell their own hand-roasted coffee beans, which are the perfect gift for every coffee-lover dad.

 

Does Dad like to whip up his own creations? At Williams Sonoma (12850 Memorial Dr.), you can find specialty kitchenware for dads who enjoy wearing the chef’s hat and being a grill master. If Dad loves to grill, get him stainless-steel skewers, high-heat nonstick cookware, or a top-quality grill brush. Or go all in this year and get him his very own outdoor pizza oven or Traeger Timberline grill.

Alternatively, you could skip the kitchenware and put together a well-deserved home-cooked meal just for him. Williams Sonoma’s test kitchen menu has a ton of great recipes for dishes like Skillet Spoon Bread and Pork Sliders with Cherry Compote. These dishes could complement some of the great steaks over at Omaha Steaks (650 West Bough Lane).

 

If Dad is a meat lover, take him to Texas de Brazil (822 Town and Country Blvd) for a delicious gaucho churrasco he will never forget. Be sure to arrive hungry because this upscale Brazilian steakhouse offers a wide range of all-you-can-eat meat, including marinated pork, lamb picanha, filet mignon, and braised beef ribs. There also is a chef-crafted salad bar and authentic Brazilian dishes like feijoada black beans. Finish the meal with a decadent dessert like the Brazilian papaya cream.

 

If you and Dad would like to spend some extra quality time together, combine a great Father’s Day meal with a hotel stay at The Moran Hotel at 800 Sorella Court in CITYCENTRE. When you book their “STEAKation” staycation deal, Dad gets a $100 gift card to use at Capital Grille (840 W Sam Houston Pkwy N), Eddie V’s (12848 Queensbury Lane), Seasons 52 (842 W Sam Houston Pkwy N) or Yard House (800 Sorella Court). All these restaurants are within walking distance of the hotel. He will feel like a king all night. Click here to book a reservation he is sure to love.

 

The Memorial District always has fun activities and events to enjoy, too. For example, you could kick off Father’s Day weekend on Friday, June 17, with “Live! On The Lawn” at Memorial City Mall, where you and Dad can enjoy some live music and peruse the Shops Under the Arbor vendors. Food and drinks from Ciro’s Italian Grill (9755 Katy Fwy) will be available for purchase while you sit back, relax, and enjoy songs by musician Chase Demaster. Don’t forget to swing by the Memorial City table at the event to sign up for your chance to win a $100 gift card to Ciro’s.

Last but certainly not least, you and Dad could catch one of this year’s most highly anticipated summer blockbusters like “Jurassic World: Dominion,” “Lightyear,” or “Elvis.” Just look through the showtimes at Cinemark Memorial City(310 Memorial City Way) or Studio Movie Grill (822 Town and Country Blvd), where Dad can sip on this month’s featured drink, the Don Julio Anejo Margarita, a blend of Don Julio Anejo, Grand Marnier, agave nectar and freshly squeezed lime juice served on the rocks with a salt rim.

 

With the shops, restaurants, cinemas, and special events right here in the Memorial District, you and Dad are sure to have a fun-filled Father’s Day!

Memorial District retailers have rolled out the red carpet for fall fashion this year. This season brings orange, amber, and neutral tones into the mix along with faux leather textures, and let's not forget the shacket—a cross between a jacket and a shirt. Some call it an overshirt. It is excellent for layering, especially in Houston's mild fall weather.

 

In fashion this fall, we expect to see billowy blouses tucked into straight-legged jeans, sporting the newer loose fit. Trends will include neutral-toned shackets in patterns or solid colors paired with faux leather skirts and a neutral bodysuit, and knee-high boots have made a comeback this season, along with booties in different textures and colors. Jewel-toned sweatsuits can pair with an ankle-length shacket and the neutral-colored Nike Jordans or Air Force 1s. Military boots paired with skirts, button-down shirts, and soft floral patterns have been seen on all the runways this season. Doctor Marten shoes make for a classic, comfy fit, allowing you to put your spin on a utilitarian boot.

Anything Bling, located in Town and Country Village, is well stocked on everything for fall fashion. They are a one-stop-shop for everything you need to update your wardrobe, including boots, jewelry, coats, and dresses.

The Memorial District is pleased to welcome Postino Wine Café to its new location at 791 Town and Country Boulevard in Town and Country Village. Postino Wine Café has two other Houston spots in the Heights Mercantile and Montrose. This new Memorial District establishment is sure to be a hit among Houston foodies.

Postino Wine Café in Town and Country Village offers 4,500 square feet of space for incredible dining experiences indoors, where you can enjoy an open-air layout, or outdoors on the patio, where you can kick back and relax with fresh air and tasty treats during patio season. The distinctive décor pays tribute to the Memorial District and surrounding Houston neighborhoods. Here you will find decorations such as old-fashioned ad campaigns decoupaged onto the ceiling, mid-century modern furniture, and glass decorations such as sconces and a large Murano chandelier. There is also an art installation piece comprising nearly 28,000 keys that Postino Wine Café collected from guests of the Heights Mercantile and Montrose location to prepare for the opening of the restaurant here in our community.

"How we choose where we open is more of an art than a science," said Lauren Bailey, Postino co-founder. "When we open each of our restaurants, we feel an immense responsibility to impart joy and positive energy upon every guest we have the privilege of serving. When this happens, there's a ripple effect that uplifts the community in a larger way. That's what we're after, and that's what we're excited to do in west Houston."

You can expect to see $5 glasses of wine and $5 pitchers of 32-ounce craft beers on the menu from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day at Postino Wine Café. Signature boards like The Bounty, Chef's Charcuterie, and Pub Board are also on offer, and you should check out the soups and salads selections along with the Snacky Things menu that includes fan favorites like the Meatballs with Goat Cheese, Crispy Cauliflower, and OMG Grilled Cheese. The weekend brunch comes complete with $5 mimosas and Bellinis from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, and there are $7 brunch cocktails like the Sure Shot made with Cocchi Rosa, sparkling rose, grapefruit juice, and soda. Similarly, the restaurant's Panettone French Toast would be a delicious way to start the day, or if you brunch with a group, you could all go in on the Cast Iron Sticky Bread.
