Itâs hard not to appreciate your mom. Sheâs been there since day one. She fed you, wiped random gook from your mouth, taught you right from wrong and politely pretended those god-awful Bob Ross paintings you did when you were 12 were true works of art. And letâs face it â you literally wouldnât be here without her.
So, at the very least, itâs probably fair to say you owe this woman a meal once a year. And luckily, South Jersey is bursting with Motherâs Day dining options to choose from. Whether itâs brunch or dinner, high-end fancy or quirky and offbeat, weâve got it. Here are our picks for some great spots to take Mom this Motherâs Day.

After all, families have endured more than a year of a global pandemic.
Some moms have played the role of remote learning instructor or instructional aide in addition to the plethora of jobs they already accomplish each day.
May 9 is a chance to pay tribute to all the moms out there. (And many of them are tired of takeout, by the way.)
If you don’t want to cook or can’t cook, consider treating Mom (and maybe grandma) to brunch.
There are quite a few restaurants throughout South Jersey offering brunch on Mother’s Day. They sound simply delightful, too. Have you heard of Upright French toast? How does a seafood omelet sound? Or high tea at noon with a Craisin and white chocolate scone?
