We’re joining all those doting dads out there and are encouraging families to take part in the unofficial holiday that celebrates the special bond shared between a father and his daughter/s on Sunday 3rd of August.

This unofficial event, which complements other dates honouring family members like Mother’s Day and Father’s Day puts a big emphasis on the spending time together. Something we all struggle to do sometimes due busy schedules and work commitments.

This will be the fourth year the Bistro has got behind the event. We’re encouraging all the dads and daughters to take some time out for one another. Watch a movie or have a chat on the phone, and at the Bistro we’ll shout every daughter that dines with her dad a glass of  Codorníu (Spanish bubbles) or an alcohol-free cocktail.
