Fan-favourite experience returns with more locations, an extended run, and a Father's Day twist that trades tea sandwiches for wings and cold beer

TORONTO, June 1, 2026 /CNW/ - After a standout debut, Boston Pizza is bringing back its fan-favourite High Tea for Dads this Father's Day, only bigger, better, and pouring into more restaurants across Canada. With twice the number of participating locations and an extended run from June 19-21, this not-so-proper tea party is officially a Father's Day tradition.

High Tea for Dads flips the script on the traditional experience, swapping dainty sandwiches for Boston Pizza favourites like wings, pizza, and cactus cut potatoes served on tiered trays, paired with ice cold beer poured from a teapot.

Last year proved that when you give dads a tea party their way, they'll show up. Because Father's Day isn't about another tie, it's about giving dad what he actually wants. So this year, Boston Pizza is answering the call with more locations, more tables, and more chances to dig in. "After seeing the response, we knew we had to bring High Tea for Dads back and level it up," says James Kawalecki, VP Marketing, Boston Pizza International. "We wanted to create something that brings families together effortlessly, so guests can just show up and enjoy the moment."

This Father's Day, Boston Pizza is also rewriting the rules on tradition. While Mother's Day may lean delicate and classic, High Tea for Dads delivers something a little more Dad-coded: bold flavours, cold pours, and zero egg salad. Even the kids are getting the high tea treatment this year, with mini teapots of pop and water making their way to the table. It's an experience designed to bring families together: no prep, no cleanup, just a table full of favourites and a guaranteed good time.

With more locations and more seats on the table this year, it's never been easier to plan your outing. Guests can simply visit BP's High-Tea website to find participating restaurants near them and call their location of choice to secure a reservation.

WHEN: June 19–21, 2026
WHERE: Participating Boston Pizza locations across Canada
HOW: Book a table by calling your preferred location, show up hungry, and get ready for a Father's Day filled with great food, cold beer, and a steady stream of Dad jokes (unavoidable, but somehow better with beer).
