Mother’s Day 2023 Brunch: Reserve Now In Newtown

NEWTOWN, CT — Don’t waste time making reservations if you plan to celebrate Mom with brunch at her favorite Newtown restaurant on Mother’s Day, which falls on Sunday, May 14, this year.

Lucas Local Oyster Bar Woodfire Cookery
Marketplace Kitchen & Bar
Nouveau Monde
Foundry Kitchen & Tavern
Quattro Osteria
