What Are The Top Ten Things To Do For Mother's Day in Seattle Southside?
Copperleaf Restaurant & Cedarbrook Lodge Spa

For Mother's Day brunch, Copperleaf Restaurant inside Cedarbrook Lodge is offering a buffet with cooked to order eggs and omelets, fresh seafood and shellfish, hand-carved meats, plus a decadent array of desserts. Be sure to make a reservation to reserve your seating!

While you're at at this eco-friendly oasis, pamper her (and yourself) and book a spa package from the Spa at Cedarbrook. They've got everything from manicures and pedicures, to hot stone massages, and so much more. The spa is the place to be for a relaxing Mother's Day.
Rhododendron Species Garden

If mom loves the great outdoors, the Rhododendron Species Garden is in peak bloom for Mother's Day weekend, meaning the garden will be at its most spectacular. Enjoy the beauty of nature, then refuel at the visiting food truck from Stacks Burgers.
Claim Jumper Restaurant

If mom is more of a carnivore, she might prefer brunch at the Claim Jumper in Tukwila! Located near the Westfield Southcenter Mall, mom can enjoy all-you-can-drink mimosas and a wide variety of classic steakhouse staples. You can book a table on OpenTable today for the whole family. After brunch, enjoy shopping at the Westfield Southcenter Mall with its over 140 stores and let mom pick out her own gift - after all, mother knows best!
Des Moines Beach Park and Quarterdeck at the Des Moines Marina

If mom wants to take a leisurely stroll along the beach, take her to Des Moines Beach Park. Breathe in the crisp Puget Sound air, hunt for seashells, and enjoy the views at this hidden gem of a south sound beach. If you happen to be at the park around 8:30 or so, you'll also catch one of the most breathtaking sunsets in the Pacific Northwest. For refreshments, stop by the Quarterdeck at the Des Moines Marina where they're serving up local beer, wine, and coffee alongside the beautiful view. On Mother's Day from 10AM to 2PM, Quarterdeck will be playing host to a pop-up from Schuller's Kitchen, a local bakery which serves delectable sweet treats and all manner of deliciousness.
The Museum of Flight

For a good time for the whole family (and a nice freebie) The Museum of Flight is offering free admission to all mothers this Mother's Day! Mom, dad, and kids will have a great time exploring the history of aviation and spaceflight. Plus, this Mother's Day is a great time to visit the museum to experience any new exhibits which have opened to the public since your last visit!
Highline SeaTac Botanical Garden

Another outdoor option is the beautiful, Highline SeaTac Botanical Garden. The sprawling gardens are blooming bright for Mother's Day. You'll see roses, fuchsias, and daylilies, as you walk along a soothing stream of running water. The path will lead you (and mom) to the beautiful and traditional Seike Japanese Garden for a moment of peace and tranquility.
Seattle Chocolate
If mom has a sweet tooth, be sure to book a Seattle Chocolate Factory Tour! Experience chocolate as Seattle Southside's favorite chocolatier opens up their factory for an educational (and delectable) adventure. Mom will have a chance to learn about their sustainable sourcing, get a view of the chocolate making process from above, and sample a variety of unique chocolate creations. Be aware, tours fill up fast so you'll want to book your tour in advance!
13 Coins

At 13 Coins, you get your meal along with a show. Watch your skilled chefs work their pyrotechnic magic as they prepare an incredible meal to mom's delight. For Mother's Day, they're offering a few brunch specials from 7AM onwards, including Berry & Coconut French Toast, an Alaskan Halibut, and a delicious Berry Tart.
Zenith Holland Nursery

Mom would definitely enjoy a visit to Zenith Holland Nursery, the oldest continually operating business in Des Moines which has been selling high quality plants to locals and visitors since 1907. If mom loves gardens and is a plant lover, then she's certain to find something special and to her liking from any one of the eleven green houses at Zenith Holland.
Rendition at Hotel Interurban

The trendy "Urban Americana" restaurant Rendition at the Hotel Interurban is featuring some delectable specials from 8AM-1PM on both Saturday and Sunday on Mother's Day weekend - meaning if mom has other plans on Sunday, you can take her out to celebrate on Saturday, too! Please call 206.278.7800 for reservations.
