OpenTable: 65% of Canadians say dining out is key for Mother's Day

OpenTable, a Booking Holdings subsidiary, released its 2026 Top 100 Brunch and Lunch Restaurants list for Canada, based on over 1 million diner reviews. The report indicates that 65% of Canadians consider dining out important for Mother's Day, with 37% planning a meal out this year. Trends show a significant rise in larger, intergenerational bookings (+29% YoY for parties of six or more) and a growing interest in solo dining (23% of moms would consider it) and overnight stays for the occasion. This highlights continued strong and diverse demand for restaurant bookings, benefiting OpenTable's platform.
