As promised, here's our (limited) list of Father's Day specials. Note that it consists only of information submitted by the establishments, and does not in any way reflect what's out there for dads on Sunday. We're pretty sure most places that open for Sunday brunch, for example, will still be open and many will offer paternal benefits. We've included phone numbers with which to make reservations or to obtain more information.
