5 reasons why you might want to consider skipping a restaurant on Fatherโs Day
While restaurant reservation books are usually filled for Motherโs Day, there traditionally isnโt as much ink required for those same books on Fatherโs Day, according to one website. Fatherโs Day does see an uptick for restaurant activity, according to Womply, which said the holiday brings in 22% more revenue for restaurants. In fact, only 29% of fathers surveyed said they wanted to be taken out to eat on Fatherโs Day, according to Zagat. While theyโre happy to spoil mothers on their special day and spend money at a restaurant, many fathers said theyโd prefer to keep some money in the bank, Fatherโs Day or no Fatherโs Day. Cooking up some burgers or hot dogs is a joy for many fathers, and Fatherโs Day provides a great excuse to do exactly that.
