Make Mother’s Day Brunch, Dinner Reservations Now In Wethersfield

WETHERSFIELD, CT — Everything Mom has done over the past year of the coronavirus pandemic should add up to an extra-special 2021 Mother’s Day celebration on Sunday, May 9. To start her the day off right, how about taking Mom to her favorite Wethersfield brunch spot?

Many restaurants and eateries are still limiting seating, so making a reservation early is especially important this year. And if you’re still undecided about going to a sit-down restaurant, curbside pickup or delivery is an option in many places.

But again, call ahead for reservations; some of your local favorites may be closed on Mother’s Day so the moms who work there can have a day off with their families.

Many restaurants offer prix fixe menus, signature cocktails, decadent desserts and five-star service.

Here are some local chains that are offering special deals on Mother's Day:

Olive Garden, Plaza at Buckland Hills Mall, Manchester: Olive Garden offers family-style takeout meals for five that include ready-to-bake entrees and breadsticks with homemade alfredo or marinara dipping sauce, and a large house solid with the signature Italian dressing.

LongHorn Steakhouse, 350 Buckland Hills, Manchester: Celebrate this Mother's Day with a quality steak. LongHorn offers cuts like Flo’s Filet and the Outlaw Ribeye, which are available with other signature items via the restaurant's curbside service.
