Mamas Who Brunch
Amelie Restaurant at Bens' Yard, Ely
Friday (next date coming up soon) 10am - 12 pm
Mamas Who Brunch is a wonderful community for mums, founded by Katie Linard. These events offer the perfect opportunity to connect with other mums, enjoy delicious food and take a well-deserved break.
Calling all Mums! 💕
If you’re craving a bit of adult conversation, good coffee and some time to just be, this morning is for you. Whether you’re a brand-new mum or deep in the toddler trenches, come join a lovely group of local mums who just get it.
Expect a relaxed, friendly vibe where you can come exactly as you are, no need to dress up (unless you want to!). There’ll be plenty of time to chat, breathe and feel supported, whether your baby naps through or needs a cuddle the whole time.
And don’t worry if you’re coming solo, lots of mums do! You’ll be greeted with a smile and a warm seat at the table.
Spaces are limited so book now – let’s brunch 💛
