Mother’s Day ideas in Glasgow


Mother’s Day is Sunday 30th March 2025, and we know it can be hard to narrow down what gift or experience to get the mother figure in your life who deserves it all. Here’s our top picks for Mother’s Day ideas in Glasgow this year.

Indulge in some self-care

For some at-home self-care, head to Molton Brown to pick out her favourite scent. From coastal aromas to apricot and freesia, there’s something for every taste. Pick up a luxurious body wash or treat her to some aroma reeds so her home can smell beautiful every day.

Rituals has the perfect gift for new mothers, with the Tiny Rituals Gift Set body lotions, body and hair washes which are suitable for both mother and new baby. Or pick up a beautifully wrapped gift set including shower foam, a body scrub, and a candle so she can enjoy relaxing time to herself.

The White Company has the perfect luxurious gifts to show your appreciation, from bath robes to candles, decadent homeware for the ideal host, or maybe a new scarf or a set of silk pyjamas.

Enjoy a sweet treat

If you’re looking for an afternoon tea in Glasgow this Mother’s Day, look no further than Patisserie Valerie. Enjoy mini cakes, scones, cream, and jam all washed down with delicious loose-leaf tea. This is a great way to spend some time together and have a sophisticated day out.

If you’d rather take home something tasty and enjoy it together, pick up a gift that’s sure to satisfy every sweet tooth from the Batch’d Mother’s Day mixed box complete with loaded brownies and stuffed cookies, to impressive cinnamon rolls from Cinnabon. Don’t miss out on the limited-edition Munchies doughnut from Krispy Kreme, available until 8th April. Filled with caramel kreme, drizzled with caramel and topped with a Munchie chocolate, this unique square doughnut will go down a treat.

If she’d prefer a meal out with the family, you’ll be spoilt for choice at Silverburn. From classic ramen or noodle dishes at Wagamama to mouth-watering burgers at Bread Meats Bread. Spend some quality time together this Mother’s Day with delicious lunch and dinner options available at Silverburn.

Take her on a shopping spree

For the lady who wants to shop ‘til she drops, buy her a Silverburn gift card and let her get exactly what she’s been eyeing up. From jewellery shops like Pandora and Swarovski to clothes from Next or Monsoon, and scents from The Perfume Shop and The Fragrance Shop, she can find the perfect items to complete her wardrobe, from £5 right up to £500.

And, if you want to make the most of your day out at Silverburn, why not take a look at what’s showing at Cineworld? Your mum might need an excuse to take a minute for herself, or maybe she’s been dying to catch the latest release – either way, why not treat her to a ticket and enjoy a film together?

Build a Mother’s Day hamper

Make her feel special with this simple but thoughtful gift – pick out all her favourite things and make a gift hamper she’ll love. Add some cosy socks and slippers, some lotions, bath accessories, and some comfy new PJs. Finish it off with her favourite snacks, from savoury crackers to indulgent chocolate treats.

The great thing about a thoughtful gift like this is the opportunity to personalise it to suit the mum figure in your life!

Take in the local culture

For a day of art and culture, head over to Pollok Park and take a walk around the Burrell Collection, a museum featuring the art collection of Sir William Burrell and his wife, Lady Constance Burrell. The museum is free to enter and is full of paintings, sculptures, and much more. And there’s lots of interactive pieces and videos to keep any kids entertained on a family visit.

Once you’ve taken it all in, head outside into the fresh air and wander around Pollok Park. Can you spot the paintings hidden along the walks?
