Please note: Oakland County Moms receives many inquiries about Easter Brunches in Metro Detroit and Oakland County. We used to list more but received complaints that Easter Brunch events I list sell out very quickly (often before OCM receives info on them). I've listed a few Easter Brunches on this directory I've been told handle large seating capacities. Please find your favorite Easter Brunch location early and call ahead. Even for the Easter Brunches listed on this page, OCM recommends advanced registration.
