Vancouver Mother’s Day Brunches
In 2026 Mother’s Day is on Sunday, May 10th. Best places for brunch fill up quickly. Be sure to make your reservations far in advance to avoid disappointment.
Below you’ll find a list of restaurants that offer Mother’s Day brunch buffets each year.
DINING EXPERIENCES AT THE WESTIN BAYSHORE HOTEL
A great place for brunch on weekends is the H2 Kitchen + Bar at the Westin Bayshore Hotel. We’ve eaten there a few times. The hotel’s Mother’s Day Brunch is extra special.
Also happening at the Westin Bayshore, but at the H Tasting Lounge, there is The Secret Garden which is an exclusive dining experience for parties of two to six people in private glass domes outside on the restaurant’s patio. The Secret Garden can be booked anytime between early March and Mother’s Day itself. The same restaurant also offers Around the World in 80 Days Afternoon Tea on Saturdays and Sundays this time of year, including on Mother’s Day. If you hope to go on Mother’s Day for either of these special experiences, however, you’ll need to book your spot way in advance.
