Giving guests a choice of their breakfast dish, a fresh juice and a hot drink from £16.45. All dads dining at breakfast on Father's Day will be treated to a free Bloody Mary (or Virgin Mary). For those opting for lunch (or dinner), Côte's French Sunday Roast starts at £26.50 per person with a twist on the traditional favourites.

This Father's Day, we've designed menus that honour time spent together, from long brunches and hearty roasts to restaurant-quality meals at home. With classic French flavours, handcrafted desserts, and our complimentary drinks for Dad, we hope to make his day as special as he deserves.'

Forget Lurpak – Gen Z has gone wild for a new kind of bougie butter
Boomer: Why is the blender out at 9am? Gen Z: I need exactly three hours to prepare my homemade butter. The Lurpak is in the fridge. This isn't just any butter… It's M&S butter? It's wunderkind chef Thomas Straker's bone marrow and burnt chilli butter recipe, which has racked up 19 million TikTok views. Sounds like what you'd get if Satan opened a deli. TikTok's crazy for it. 'I audibly moaned watching this,' one user wrote. Another called bone marrow butter their 'Roman Empire'. I'm not convinced the Roman Empire was founded on spreading spruced-up beef fat on toast. If you're not feeling the bone thing, give TikToker Mary Amzekria's saffron and cinnamon honey butter a go. Her recipe has 157,000 likes. What about my cholesterol? My doctor will go mad. I'll leave the honey-infused fats to your unsullied arteries. Judge away, but searches for flavoured butter on are up 444 per cent this year. Like that fancy salted one they serve at Côte brasserie? See, I'm au fait with foodie trends. Not quite. Waitrose's three most popular butter recipes are nduja, stilton and cowboy. Does that last one come with a Stetson hat and leather chaps? It's a mix of butter, garlic, mustard, lemon, chives, parsley, paprika, chilli and horseradish. Not churning up my appetite. It has buttered up writers at the Financial Times, who have described haute butters as 'disgustingly moreish' and the 'elite category of condiment'. Heresy! In my opinion, the only 'elite' condiment is Flora melting into a Warburtons crumpet. Eww! Flora is margarine. It's full of ultra-processed ingredients – worse still it's not even salted! What about all those adverts in the 1970s and 80s about it being low calorie and better for your heart? Total con! Appaz, margarine has nearly as high a plastic content as the tub it comes in. So it's a choice between piling on the pounds or ingesting so much plastic I'm essentially half Tupperware? Don't you listen to Dr Tim Spector's Zoe podcast? The fats in butter are apparently good for your gut microbiome, so they could actually help you to lose weight. And what's Dr Tim's standpoint on you infusing your butter with the contents of Tesco's sweet treat aisle? He wouldn't be best pleased. But if you insist on plain butter, at least make it Les Prés Salés. With a name that posh I'm betting a tub costs about the same as my first car. It comes as a fancily wrapped block, obviously. And it's only £5 for 250g, which is great value for what one TikTok taster described as 'the best butter in the world' and 'so good, it makes me emotional'. For a fiver, I'd want it to spread itself and sing me a tune while doing it. Five pounds is nothing. Manchester brand Pollen's £10 Croissant Butter with white chocolate is so popular, it even has a hundred-strong waiting list. A butter selling out faster than Oasis tickets. Whatever next? The real spenny stuff is served at restaurants. Diners pay £199 for the tasting menu at London's Michelin-starred Frog, the main event being chicken-skin butter and bread. I'd suggest you dunk a slice of Hovis in the remnants of the roasting tin. That's free. Then there's Plates, the first vegan Michelin joint, famous for its bright green whipped spirulina butter. That looks like someone's mixed butter with their neighbour's lawn trimmings. It really pops on your Instagram story. I should've known it would have something to do with 'collating your Instagram aesthetic'. Anyway, let me try this bone marrow concoction you've made. What do you think: butterly delicious? I Can't Believe It's Not Better.

La Redoute's new homeware collab is here - and it's the cutest thing on the high street right now
Do you know Côte Brasserie? Yes, the chain of French restaurants that serves up classics such as Steak Frites and Poulet Breton and doesn't charge a fortune. (In fact, it's about the only place in London where you'll be able to find a table on a weeknight without a reservation and only pay £22.95 for a three-course menu.) Well, turns out Côte Brasserie is venturing into homeware – and it has teamed up with one of our favourite high street brands, La Redoute, on its first-ever interiors collection that will take your tablescapes to the next level. (It's outdoor hosting season, after all.) The 12-piece collaboration is split into two ranges. The Breakfast Collection will come in handy when you're serving up a breakfast spread for your friends this summer – think a trio of unscented, croissant-shaped candles, as well as a tote bag, set of four napkins, a set of two placemats and two different wall prints featuring the flaky pastry. Le Marché Collection is inspired by the seasonal produce you'll find at a French farmer's market this time of year and comprises another wall print, tote bag, tablecloth, table runner and set of four napkins with hand-drawn illustrations of all your favourite foods: asparagus, radishes, strawberries and, of course, baguettes. Just like its à la carte menu, prices for the collaboration are super affordable, ranging between £9.95 for the tote bag and £49.95 for the tablecloth and wall prints. The homeware collection launched alongside Côte's new Spring Specials menu, and is now available on and Shop Côte x La Redoute Intérieurs Le Marché Table Runner £24.95 Shop Breakfast Set of 2 Placemats £24.95 Shop Le Marché Set of 4 Napkins £34.95 Shop Breakfast Set of 4 Napkins £34.95 Shop Le Marché Tablecloth £49.95 Shop Breakfast Pause Café Wall Print £49.95 Shop Le Marché Wall Print £49.95 Shop Breakfast Croissant Wall Print £49.95 Shop To get more of what you love from your favourite Sunday supplement, follow us on Instagram (@youmagazine), TikTok (@you_magazine) and X (@YOUMagSocial).
