Father's Day falls on Sunday, June 21, 2026, overlapping with the FIFA World Cup summer in Miami.
Options range from Zuma's Baikingu Brunch near the FIFA Fan Festival to a Michelin-starred chef's counter at MAASS.
Choices span Miami and Fort Lauderdale, from leisurely bakery mornings to all-day celebrations.
Father's Day lands Sunday, June 21 this year, right as Miami settles into a World Cup summer. Whether the day calls for a long brunch, a steak-driven feast, or a front-row seat to the football, South Florida's tables are ready.
Brunch with the game on Zuma anchors the day with its signature Baikingu Brunch, a spread of live cooking stations, an unlimited sushi and raw bar, robata-grilled favorites, and a dedicated dessert room. Its Bayfront setting puts the FIFA Fan Festival within an easy post-brunch stroll, the rare Father's Day plan that pleases both the table and the group chat. A few minutes away, Amazónico turns its second-floor lounge into a World Cup watch party for the length of the tournament, pairing every match with à la carte dining and bottomless drink packages from $50, with reservations on OpenTable.
For fathers who measure the day in dry-aged beef, MAASS in Fort Lauderdale offers three ways in: a four-course prix fixe brunch, a limited Dry Aged Beef Box to cook at home (a 20-ounce bone-in Châtel striploin with signature sauces and a Glenmorangie tasting pack), and a seat at its Michelin-starred chef's counter, where Chef Ryan Ratino serves a tasting menu. Maison Ostrow takes the maximalist route, turning Father's Day into a full-day celebration that runs brunch through dinner with live music, a cigar-rolling station, charcuterie, and a dry-aged ribeye at the center, before the room settles into a late-evening lounge.
For families who prefer something gentler, Casa Caracas brings its Venezuelan bakery classics and a Sunset Harbour menu to Harbour Club, a low-key way to gather over fresh pastries, a signature sandwich, or the bakery's beloved cachitos. No reservations, just walk in.
Father's Day and a World Cup summer rarely share a weekend, and South Florida is leaning into both. Whether the celebration calls for sushi by the bay, a Michelin tasting menu, a cigar and a ribeye, or a quiet bakery table, the through-line is a city that knows how to turn an occasion into an all-day event.
