These Are All The Best Places To Book For Mother’s Day In Brisbane

For endless Mother’s Day sipping, savouring, and spoiling, just head on down to Howard Smith Wharves for family fun on the riverfront. Starting strong at the renowned Felons Barrel Hall, raise a beer to Mum and all she does with a line-up of free activities like pinball, ping pong, reptile shows, face painting, balloon twisting, and kids eat half price from 11 AM – 3 PM. Or, if your mum doesn’t stop raving about Italian, book a table at CIAO for a share-style set lunch menu complete with homemade focaccia and silky burrata, fresh pasta, and finishing with a classic tiramisu for $110 per person. For full indulgence, treat Mum to Stanley Restaurant’s Mother’s Day banquet lunch, filled with oysters, dumplings, Ora King salmon, and more for $148 per person. For a waterfront dining moment, treat Mum to a seafood platter and Champagne at Mr Percival’s. Or, for a more relaxed approach, head to Fellini’s for authentic Italian and let the kids run wild on the playground nearby. Put simply, the ultimate Mother’s Day celebration starts (and ends) at HSW. 

If your idea of Mother’s Day involves a touch of French champagne glamour, InterContinental Brisbane has you covered. This year, they’re elevating the tradition with a Mother’s Day High Tea in partnership with Veuve Clicquot (and it’s every bit as fabulous as it sounds). Set within the sunlit surrounds of Latitude 27 Kitchen, the experience begins, quite fittingly, with a glass of Veuve Clicquot in hand. From there, it’s a leisurely afternoon of nibblies. Think delicate finger sandwiches, exquisite pastries, and desserts that look almost too pretty to eat (almost). Plus, everything is made fresh in–house, adding that extra layer of care that Mum will appreciate. Just be quick, tables won’t stay for long. 

Central 中環 knows how to make Mother’s Day truly special. On 10th May, the doors open for a celebration dedicated to showing mums just how much they’re loved. Gather the family and settle in over one-day-only specials, including ‘Five Joys’ Scallop Dumplings, paired with a soundtrack that celebrates love as much as it complements the food. And to mark the occasion, Perrier-Jouët will be flowing all day for just $20. Elegant dining, endless champagne, and great company – what more could you ask for? Make the most of it, because Mother’s Day celebrations like this don’t come around often.

Rose gold interior, calming music, hand-crafted pasta? This Mother’s Day, Bianca is offering a shared set menu of antipasti, wood-fired breads, and handmade pastas, along with an Anyday Spritz on arrival to celebrate the right way. At $150 per person, Mum can dine in a calming, romantic atmosphere and dig into a specially crafted menu. Watch out, afterwards she might just crown you her favourite child.
