Mother's Day was the single busiest dining day in Canada last year, more than 37 per cent of us are planning to mark the occasion with a meal out, according to OpenTable's 2026 consumer research. In Langley, that means restaurants and patios book up early. Here's your weekend plan, mapped across brunch, shopping, and a good long walk.
Where to brunch
A handful of Langley standouts are already taking reservations. Expect seats to go fast in the next two weeks.
- Township 7 Winery (21152 16th Ave) — A 10 a.m. Mother's Day brunch at one of South Langley's original wineries, with reservations filling fast.
- Backyard Vineyards (3033 232 St) — Brunch boards with mimosas on both Saturday and Sunday, plus a small gift for Mom. Seating is limited.
- Coast Langley City Hotel — A classic all-you-can-eat buffet with a photo backdrop and a flower for every mother. Good for big family groups.
- Sabà Bistro (Fort Langley) — For a quieter, European-style brunch in a genuinely neighbourly setting. Owner Simone Hurwitz sources from Fraser Valley producers.
- Trading Post Eatery (Fort Langley) — Heated patio, seasonal menu, and the option to keep it casual with a shared table.
- The Hard Bean Brunch Co. — If Mom prefers pancakes-as-dessert energy over white tablecloths.
Tip
Book by Tuesday, April 28 at the latest. Most Langley restaurants take Mother's Day reservations a month out, and prime brunch windows (10 a.m. to 1 p.m.) fill first.
What to buy
Langley's independent florists and boutiques are where this weekend really sparkles. A few to know:
- Floralista (Fort Langley) — A full-service flower studio on Glover Road with a loyal local following.
- Niche Boutique Florals — Known for custom, same-day arrangements.
- Walnut Grove Floral Boutique — 30-plus years in the community.
- Fresh Blooms, Cicily's, and Oceana — All offer same-day delivery across Langley.
- Farmhouse in Provence (Fort Langley) — For non-floral gifts: vintage finds, soaps, linens, and locally sourced treasures.
- Into Chocolate Candy & Confections — Hand-crafted chocolates that travel well, with two locations.
Where to walk
Sometimes Mom just wants fresh air. Langley delivers.
- Fort to Fort Trail — 12 to 15 km of Fraser River walking path between Bedford Landing and Derby Reach. Flat, scenic, and dog-friendly.
- Campbell Valley Regional Park — Equestrian trails and open meadows in South Langley. Perfect for a quieter morning.
- Derby Reach Regional Park — Riverfront beaches and picnic spots; good for a brunch-to-walk combo.
- Aldor Acres or Krause Berry Farms — Spring means open fields, flowers, and (at Krause) pie. Treat Mom to the full agritourism experience.
One Sunday. A dozen ways to do it right. Whatever Mom loves most, Langley has a version of it within 20 minutes' drive.
