Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Posted on 04/29/2020 by Austin Chamber of Commerce

Mom—the one who taught us our manners and how to be kind, and who loves us no matter what—she works 365 days a year, with no vacation, and no breaks. She should be celebrated every day, but we’ve created a list to celebrate her especially well for Mother’s Day.


  • Flowers for Mother's Day? Groundbreaking.

    Is your Mom a flower lover? Get her a beautiful bouquet to spark joy each time she walks by. It’s even peony season!

  • Jewelry—a classic.

    Make her feel so special and loved with a colorful piece or fine jewelry of her choice.

  • Brunch—what Mom doesn't love it?

    If you're able to get a spot to honor the 25% occupancy rate, make a reservation for brunch at her favorite restaurant, or order it in. Our members have a full spread of offerings!

    • Fleming’s is offering a three-course meal including a filet and lobster meal with select bottles of wine.
    • HUNGRY provides catering services that offer a lot of variety including build your own fajita bar, breakfast favorites, all American classics, and more.
    • Moonshine Grill - bring her comfort and cocktails, especially since alcohol can still be ordered to-go after May 1.
  • Sweet treats

    Does your mom check the chocoholic box? Maggie Louise covers that with her beautifully artistic design chocolates. Or have Mom's favorite cookies delivered from Tiff’s Treats.

  • The wino

    Does your mom enjoy a nice cocktail at the end of the day? A little bottle of wine or a cocktail is always lovely to have, especially when accompanied by a personally monogrammed cup to keep it cool.

  • The fashion-forward mom

    Theory, Macy’s, and Altatudes have Mother’s Day gift guides to help you select the perfect piece for Mom and her unique style.

  • Spa treatments to let her relax

    When it's safe to do so, let Mom wind down and relax with a stay and spa retreat at the Omni Barton Creek or Lake Austin Spa Resort. What will it be? A facial, massage, pedicure, or all the treatments to make her feel like the queen that she is!

  • The traveler

    When it's safe to do so, let Mom get away for the weekend for some peace, quiet, relaxation, and fun.


Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers, step-mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, and mother figures! May you feel appreciated, loved, and extra special today!
