Mandarin Spice Asian Grill (10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.): Stop by Mandarian Spice for a Mother’s Day Buffet featuring their famous teriyaki chicken, Asian-style salmon, wontons, and assorted sushi.
Pedaler’s Fork (8:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.): Featuring your favorite Brunch Buffet favorites from Prime Rib to Avocado Toast, Mashed Potatoes, and more, this brunch looks binge-worthy! Don’t forget to check out one of their 108 beers on tap!
Chophouse Downtown (11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.) – Along with bottomless mimosas and Bloody Mary’s, their featured menu mentions an apple cinnamon French toast that sounds drool-worthy. Reservations are not required but are encouraged.
Chrome Horse Saloon (8:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.) – Not only will they be serving a brunch buffet, but they will be having live music and face painting; fun for the whole family!
Granite City Food and Brewery (9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.) – How could you go wrong by celebrating at a brewery that will be serving classic brunch options. They have an option to reserve a table on their website and takeout is available.
Kingston’s Steakhouse (9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.) – Located on the NE side of Cedar Rapids, formerly known as Butcher Block, Kingston’s Steakhouse provides a great menu and cocktail selection. Sunday they are offering delicious options like unlimited mimosa and Bloody Mary bars. Reservations are suggested.
The Hotel at Kirkwood (10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.) – They are offering an extensive menu with meat carving stations and even a shrimp cocktail display! Kids 5 and under are free, reservations are required.
Paradise Indian Grill (11:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m) – An Indian buffet with unique bites like Tandoor and Naan. With almost a 5-star rating on their Facebook page, I’m betting this is going to be beyond tasty.
Stillwater Coffee Co. (2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.) – This is one of the cutest coffee shops around, and they are making it even cuter by hosting a Mother’s Day Tea Party for all ages. There will be live music, beverages, and finger sandwiches. Tickets are required.
White Star Ale House (12:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.) – This one is more of a “lunch” than a “brunch,” but the four-course meal they are offering sounds phenomenal!
