SOCO Collection’s Father’s Day Gift Guide
Father’s Day is around the corner and finding the perfect gift for Dad can be a difficult task, so this year let SOCO and The OC Mix’s line-up of premier stores and restaurants do the heavy lifting. Whether your dad is an outdoorsman, techie, wine aficionado, or foodie, you’re sure to find something he’ll love. Read on for more dad-approved gift ideas from Orange County’s favorite destination for inspiration.
The Techie
For the music man, head to Cloth & Metal, which boasts a selection of state-of-the-art audio gear, specialty headphones, and vintage-style radios, so dad can jam out all summer long!
The Outdoorsman
Treat your active dad to some new equipment from Gear Coop for his favorite hobby – be it hiking, camping, skiing, or yoga. Throughout the year, Gear Coop also leads “Radventures,” a series of guided hiking, camping, and climbing trips with their experienced outdoors team.
The Grill Master
Whether Dad is a professional chef or a secret foodie, SOCO’s premiere culinary and dining destinations serve up great gift options! For the grill master, stop by PIRCH to pick up a new barbecue and grilling accessories. Paired with Savory Spice Shop’s “Best of BBQ” spice blends, Dad will be well stocked for an entire summer of outdoor e ntertaining.
The Foodie
For a memorable Father’s Day experience, sign up the whole family for a cooking class at Surfas Culinary District, SOCO’s one-stop shop for gourmet ingredients and cooking tools. Or you could let someone else do the cooking and enjoy dinner at one of SOCO’s award-winning restaurants such as Pueblo, The Iron Press, or Arc Food & Libations.
The Mixologist
If your dad enjoys refreshing libations, head to The Mixing Glass at The OC Mix and surprise him with a mixology class to perfect his craft cocktail skills – or some new barware to stir up his favorite drink at home. Just across SOCO, LCA Wine offers wine tasting classes with some of Orange County’s most knowledgeable sommeliers and a hand picked collection of more than 300 wines from around the world.
