It’s almost Mother’s Day, and 2022 is starting to look a lot better than last year for celebrating your mom/mother figure.
Many restaurants and attractions are back open, and offering special deals or dinners/brunches to enjoy. Plus, a lot of people are now vaccinated, making it safer to spend time together.
I’ve perused all the listings and press emails, and here are CitySurfing Orlando’s picks for celebrating moms on Mother’s Day, May 8, 2022. All prices do not include tax or gratuity (please don’t forget to tip!).
Under the restaurant list are some fun events happening to enjoy with mom, too.
