FYI: Stage House Tavern in Somerset does Sunday Brunch as well (so I'm presuming they'd do Mother's Day too) http://www.stagehousetavern.com/somerset/sunday-brunch-somerset.html

Confirmed on their website that they have Mother's Day Brunch, but probably too late to include: http://www.stagehousetavern.com/somerset/mothers-day-stagehouse-tavern-somerset.html

Pheasants Landing Restaurant accomidates a lot of people and is always sold out. The Staff is great and friendly. Make your reservation early. The food is always consistent.

I went to Pheasant's Landing for Mother's day brunch one year and they were not prepared for the crowd. The food wasn't ready and by the time we were done waiting and eating... then we saw that they put out new food that we hadn't gotten.

My sons enjoy grilling for me on the back deck. They make a mean porterhouse and red sangria chilled

We went to Pheasant's Landing for Mother's Day Brunch a few years ago, and was not that impressed with it considering the cost. We have been to Rafferty's before as well and thought everything was good there. We have reservations at Stagehouse Tavern this year.

Can't believe Mockingbird Cafe in B.R. didn't make the list - that is one of our all time favorite places and really is the BEST in the area for BRUNCH! Hands down!

Stoney Brook Grille over by Raritan Valley College is supposed to be nice. Have not personally tried their brunch, but hear good things.

Trio in Martinsville in offering a Mother's Day brunch as well. We went there for dinner the other night and it was excellent.

Red Oak Grille at New Jersey National in the Hills has an awesome brunch for Mother’s day. We sat on the terrace last year which over looks the golf course and has great views. Food was delicious - I highly recommend it and if the weather is nice book your reservation for the terrace!

Old Man Rafferty's in Hillsborough is absolutely wonderful! Their New Brunswick location is a little better because they have the open buffet. If you're okay with a little driving, Lambertville Inn has a buffet brunch overlooking the river. Very peaceful...afterwards you can cross the bridge and do some shopping in New Hope.

I still have to nominate my daughter for the best chef in town on Mother's Day. No one serves up a bowl of Cheerios and milk like she does. :)
