Celebrating Mother's Day in Rome this year? Well, one of the best ways to show just how much you love and care for your
madre here is to treat them to an exceptional brunch. Fortunately, you're already in one of the finest food capitals in the world! Italian food is known for being one of the richest and most flavorful cuisines out there, so it's only natural that the country's capital city is a culinary authority. In popular
brunch spots like Babingtons, Marigold, Dolce, and Babette, you can treat your mother to what may be the best meal of her life!
Babingtons
Although Babingtons, also known as Babington's Tea Room, is more for afternoon tea (like the hotspots in London), it's become a popular brunch spot in Rome over the years. Its customers, especially women, can't help but keep coming back for their sweet pastries, warm tea, and calming ambiance. Its location on Piazza di Spagna also contributes to its fame. Since the tea room is beside one of the most well-visited tourist sites in Rome, many who visit the famous Spanish Steps often end up taking a break here. So if you plan to take your mom out for brunch at Babingtons, make sure you reserve a table beforehand!

Marigold
Located in the Ostiense
district in Rome, Marigold has become a brunch staple for locals and tourists alike. Most of what they serve on the menu are the perfect dishes to serve for Brunch; particularly ones that your mother would enjoy. Avocado on rye bread, for instance, offers a soft health kick and a delicious fruity punch! Buttermilk pancakes, on the other hand, are perfect if your mom has a huge sweet tooth. And if you both just want something simple and easy but also organic and healthy, their homemade granola and yogurt will do the trick!

Il Maritozzo Rosso
Among all the great places on this list, Il Maritozzo Rosso will have you feeling stuffed in no time! After all, brunch is all about keeping your stomach full in the morning, when it's already too late for breakfast but it's still too early for lunch. So what will Il Maritozzo Rosso serve you and your mom on Mother's Day to keep you both satisfied? Huge sandwiches that are either savory (Maritozzi Burger) or sweet (Benedict Maritozzo), scrumptious comfort food (think pancakes, omelets, and the like), and mouthwatering desserts (i.e. cheesecake, carrot cake, and more). What's not to love?

Babette
Babette on Via Margutta offers a complete brunch experience. They serve delicious pastries,
different types of pasta, savory meats, stomach-filling sandwiches, and more. No matter what you and your mom will order, rest assured, you'll end the meal feeling more than satisfied. Most especially if you're an egg person. Brunch isn't complete without some sort of egg, after all, and Babette prepared all kinds of them. Be they scrambled, fried, or boiled, you can enjoy far fresh eggs here to pair well with a hot cup of coffee. Doesn't that sound like the perfect place that your mother would enjoy on her special day?

Il Margutta
Are you and your mother health-conscious? In this day and age, going vegan and vegetarian is the way to go! For your
madre, who's probably reached a certain age, that'll help her live longer, thus allowing you to spend more years together. So if you truly want to treat your mom to the best Mother's Day brunch, you can always get a table at Il Margutta! Located on Via Margutta near Piazza del Popolo, it's one of the finest vegetarian places in Rome. Many of their dishes are even gluten-free too! Talk about healthy, right?

Rosti al Pigneto
Rigatoni all’ amatriciana,
Gnocchi Pomodoro e basilico, and
calamari ripieni—these are just some of the dishes that Rosti al Pigneto serves under their Brunch menu. And from these three alone, you can already tell that this place is all about authentic Italian cuisine! Very suitable for a culinary hotspot in the country's capital city, is it not? If you treated your mother on a trip to Rome for Mother's Day this year, it makes sense that you also treat her to a place where they serve the most authentic Italian brunch food possible. And you won't find a place that fits that description quite like Rosti al Pigneto on Via Bartolomeo d'Alviano

Hopside
Finally, there's Hopside, a fairly relaxed brunch place Via Francesco Negri. It's a pretty trendy place, so much so that you'll probably question if your mom would like it here for her Mother's Day Brunch. The hotspot does look and feel like it's more for a younger crowd, after all. It's a brewery housed in an old warehouse. That couldn't be farther from the types of places your mom would usually eat at, isn't it? Well, with that said, however, their brunch menu will certainly delight your
madre. Think Eggs Benedict, veggie burgers, and fruit cheesecake for dessert!
