The women who raise us deserve to be celebrated. In order to help you find the perfect way to thank those maternal figures in your lives on Mother’s Day, Eater put together a guide to Austin’s best holiday brunches, dinners, pop-ups, and more happening around town.

There is something for everyone this year, from drag brunch at the W Hotel to a winery brunch buffet at William Chris Vineyards to upscale dining at Jeffrey’s to brunch special dishes galore. All events are on Sunday, May 8, otherwise noted, and reservations are usually required.

If you’re looking for takeout Mother’s Day desserts, Eater has it covered with a separate guide, and then there are general brunch guides too.

If there is a Mother’s Day brunch, celebration, meal, or party missing from the guide below, let Eater know on the tipline.

As with all businesses, be sure to call ahead to make sure each restaurant/truck is still open or if there are updates on current offerings and service models, as things are changing constantly. Wear a mask, tip well, and if you’re ordering delivery, try to order directly from the restaurants/trucks themselves.

Health experts consider dining out to be a high-risk activity for the unvaccinated; it may pose a risk for the vaccinated, especially in areas with substantial COVID transmission. The latest CDC guidance is here; find a COVID-19 vaccination site here.
