How can you repay the person who gives the best advice, cooks you the most amazing food and possibly still does your laundry? A thank you big enough probably doesn’t exist, but Mother’s Day is definitely a great excuse to dote on your amazing mum nonetheless.
DesignMyNight have put together a great selection of bars and restaurants for you to take your favourite lady to on Sunday, March 19, including everything from fancy afternoon teas to a Mamma Mia-themed brunch bonanza. Give your mum a day out worthy of royalty this Mother’s Day; you know she deserves it
If you’re looking for the perfect spot to sip on delish Japanese-inspired cocktails and chill with your favourite person, then Bar Ikigai is the place for you. Hidden away in a cosy loft space, its super laid back vibe is perfect for a catch up and a tipple. It’s the best place to step away from the hustle and bustle of Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter, especially after a day of shopping. Listen to Tokyo Lo-Fi music, gaze out of the old factory windows and have the best time in this gorgeous little hideout.
6. The Lost And Found Birmingham
If your mum is a lover of all things botanical and boozy, then she’s going to love The Lost and Found. This place is full of Victorian charm that is sure to wow the most special lady in your life - especially when she sets her eyes on the cocktail list. Decadently indulge in their afternoon tea offering or choose from a range of pizzas, pastas and steaks that are guaranteed to satisfy the fussiest of parents. Whether you’re looking for a larger family celebration or an intimate dining experience, The Lost and Found will ensure an unforgettable Mother’s Day.
7. Orelle
Don’t worry about booking those Eurostar tickets to Paris this Mother’s Day - travel up to Orelle instead. This fabulous French restaurant sits on the 24th floor of Birmingham’s tallest building, boasting the dreamiest city skyline. This Mother’s Day, enjoy an expertly crafted three-course menu for just £60 that encapsulates the classic British roast…with a cheeky French twist. Of course your mum will be enjoying all this with a martini in hand, just don’t forget to take some nice snaps of you both in between all the catching up.
8. Bacchus Bar
Travel through the ages this Mother’s Day at Bacchus Bar - a basement nook oozing in history that’s named after the Roman God of Wine. It’s not only one of the oldest bars in the city, but also one of the coolest. Choose to drink in the Egyptian-themed room (with hieroglyphics on the walls), or transport yourselves to France in the French-themed dining space -the choice is yours. Whatever you do, make sure you accompany your glass of vino with one of their seafood dishes - this place is known as a specialist fish house too.
