Mother’s Day is a little different this year, but you can still enjoy the tradition of surprising Mom with a gift. Alameda’s downtown businesses continue to offer take-out, delivery, gift certificates, and virtual experiences.

Pick Up a Sweet Treat:

Crispian Bakery – Order a pie, lemon meringue tart, chocolate cake, or a plethora of other goodies for Mothers’ Day pickup on Sunday.

Feel Good Bakery – Celebrate Mom with some sweets! Order something special online or pick out something from the store display case.

Tucker’s Ice Cream – Order a pint to go — choose your flavor and they will hand pack your ice cream for you. Ice cream cakes are available too.

Roses Are Red and So Is Wine:

Farmstead Cheeses & Wines – Treat Mom to a Farmstead wine pick. How About an Oregon Pinot Noir at an Amazing Price?

The Park Street Cellars – Find a unique wine for Mom. Shop in the store or shop anytime online, but remember to pickup by Saturday.

Order Flowers for Delivery:

Don’t Let Mom Cook:

Cinema Grill – Preorder Mother’s Day Brunch specials include Steak & Eggs, Salmon Benedict, and other fanciful dishes. Delivery or takeout available. For each brunch box purchased, Cinema Grill is donating a face mask to Building Futures.

Pappo – It wouldn’t be Mother’s Day without Smoked & Slow-cooked Prime Rib, including all the classic “Steakhouse” sides… horseradish cream, salad and of course, chocolate cake. Dinner pick up and delivery between 4PM-5PM.

Many other restaurants are providing meal service and Mother’s Day specials on Sunday. Here’s a sampling of Instagram posts: American Oak, Hang Ten Boiler, Mama Papa Lithuania, The Hobnob, Speisekammer, and Spinning Bones.
