A Two-Day Mother’s Day Weekend Extravaganza.
This Mother’s Day weekend, Alley Brews is flipping the script with a more rock-and-roll alternative to the typical Mother’s Day buffet. On Saturday, May 9, “Tennyson’s Best Kept Secret” space will have a classic Southern crawfish boil starting at 11 a.m. alongside live music from 2:30- 4 p.m. If guests are feeling bold, they can get a tattoo from the on-site tattoo artists (temporary versions also available). The crawfish boil will be $19 for one pound of crawfish, potatoes, and corn. It’s a choose-your-own-adventure kind of day—whether you stay for the music, the food, the ink, or all three. FYI, they do have a full bar and espresso-based coffee menu as a reminder.
Sunday will be an all-day Mother’s Day extravaganza with a flower bouquet + coffee combo, opening at 8:30 a. Don’t forget to try their soon-to-be-famous lavender matchas. They’ll have yoga starting at 9:30 a.m., a candle class at 2 p.m., as well as a vendor market from 1-5 p.m, including a live doodle booth, spark hair extensions, and sweet treats – all with a mimosa bar.
Saturday: crawfish, tattoos, live music
Sunday: coffee, flowers, yoga, candles, and a slow afternoon market
