Mother’s Day is quickly approaching. Don’t forget to make plans for a wonderful day spent with the most important lady in your life at some of our favorite New York establishments.

 

It doesn’t get more quintessential New York City than Tavern on the Green. Nestled within Central Park, this picturesque spot offers tried and true brunch favorites like eggs benedict, steak & eggs and brioche french toast to pair with the unbeatable ambiance and beautiful views. Plus, throw in some mimosas or bloody mary’s for good measure. (67th St. and Central Park West; 212-877-8684)

 

Live music, picnicking and more await at the Mother’s Day Weekend garden party at the New York Botanical Gardens. Both Saturday and Sunday from 10 AM-6 PM, visit the beautiful Bronx space to experience the spring blooms and spend time with mom. Food trucks will be parked throughout the gardens for more casual dining, or make a reservation at Hudson Garden Grill for a more formal affair. (2900 Southern Blvd.; 718-817-8700)

 

Homemade pastries and a quaint outdoor garden await at this Williamsburg establishment that is the spot to be for weekend brunch. Reimagined versions of classic staples—like the strawberry mascarpone stuffed french toast or spiced walnut pancakes—pair perfectly with brunch cocktails like mimosas and Bellini’s for a casual and delicious meal out with mom. (352 Bedford Ave; 718-782-0910)

 

This popular seafood spot is known for their all-night Monday happy hours, but don’t overlook it for your Mother’s Day celebration. This year, they’re offering complimentary flowers and a special menu at both locations. Delicious options like goat cheese toast, savory donuts and lobster rolls are all on offer, along with unlimited cocktails for an added $25.
