Mother’s Day will be here before you know it and Connecticut restaurants are already accepting reservations for Mother's Day brunches. Taking mom out for a delicious meal (that she doesn't have to prepare) is a special way to let her know you appreciate everything she does. Mommy Poppins has looked everywhere and put together a list of restaurants that will make your Mother's Day brunch special. We included locations for families with squirmy kids that are going to need more than a meal. 

We love celebrating moms in our Mommy Poppins Parenting Guide. Our picks for Mother's Day Gifts Moms Actually Want are a great way to make the day extra special. And check out our Spring Fun Guide if you're looking for even more family activities to take part in after brunch.
