Mother's Day is just around the corner, so now is the time to make your reservations in one of Milwaukee's hallowed brunch halls. This year, why not take advantage of the glory that is Wisconsin in May and consider one of these options for Mother's Day Brunch -- each is, in it's own way, a sort of natural oasis in the midst of our busy city.
Located on a secluded section of the Milwaukee River, the Hubbard Park Lodge lets you escape from the city -- without leaving the city. Open to the public only for Sunday brunch or Friday dinner (the rest is devoted to catering large events) brunch at Hubbard Park Lodge is a rare occassion. Mother's Day brunch is served 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. for $23.95 per person. Call for reservations.

Tours leave at 12 p.m. and last for two hours as you leisurely cruise the Milwaukee river and lakefront. $40 per adult. Call for reservations.
