If you’ve suddenly remembered that Sunday is Mother’s Day, you might be panicking about where to take her.
Dont worry! We’ve got you covered with a few ideas, and you dont even have to travel far!
1. Kings Place Arts Gallery
Show your mother how cultured you can pretend to be by taking her to one of two concerts at Kings Place, including the celebrated Elizabeth Wallfisch & Friends and Alan Titchmarsh. You can also see how creative you can get in your interpretation of Thomas Newbolt’s paintings.
Address: 90 York Way, N1 9AG
2. The Dolls House
Take her out for a classy lunch at the Dolls House where you can show her poorly you remember those table manners she taught you during this special Mother’s day three course meal.
Address: 181 Upper St, London N1 1RQ
3. CoffeeWorks Project
For a classier version of your regular coffee meets with your mother, mosey along to CoffeeWorks in Angel, for a gourmet caffeine injection you can sip while you lie about your financial situation.
Address: 96-98 High Street, N1 8EG
4. The Albion Pub
To capture the feel of relaxing in a country pub in the heart of the city, travel along to The Albion in beautiful Barnsbury for a suckling pork Sunday Roast with your mum.
Address: 10 Thornhill Road, N1 1HW
5. maison d’etre
Where better to thank your mother for making all the sacrifices she constantly reminds you that she made for you than this intimate, artisan coffee house in Highbury and Islington?
Address: 154 Canonbury Road, N1 2UP
6. The Sampler Wine Merchant
Take your mother along to the Sampler Wine Merchant, so she can choose the Mother’s Day gift she genuinely wants for herself rather than the body scrub you normally buy.
On this Mother’s day they are organizing a wine sampling from the French region of Languedoc Rousillon and you might still catch a spot if you’re fast enough.
Address: 266 Upper Street, N1 2UQ
7. The Alma Islington
If you simply feel like sharing a pint you can always take her to local Islington pub, The Alma. If she doesn’t sound convinced, tell her that it is the winner TimeOut’s Love London 2015 awards. If that convinces her, nothing will.
