Who says that one day is enough to celebrate the dad who held your hand on the first day of school, snapped photos at your prom or tossed you your first football. Applebee’s Neighborhood Bar and Grill is honoring fathers all week long from June 10th through the 17th with an affordable feast that’s truly fit for a king. Applebee’s Father’s Day Feast includes a half rack of ribs, chicken and a 4 oz. sirloin steak cooked his way for $18.99 and if he’s still hungry you can splurge and add on grilled or fried shrimp for an additional $6.99. So, forget the loud ties and polo shirts, if Dad loves sizzling meats straight off the barbeque, the Father’s Day Feast is being served up just for him at all Applebee’s restaurants in New Jersey all week long.

If dad lives far away, and you can’t be together on Father’s Day, you can send him an Applebee’s gift card and get a bonus for you. From now through June 24th, purchase Applebee’s gift cards totaling $50 at any Applebee’s restaurant in New Jersey and receive a free $10 bonus gift card that is valid for a limited time.
