Where to Easter Brunch (and Tea, and Dinner) in Seattle

Buffets, bunnies, and booze for the holiday.

Goldfinch Tavern lays out an impressive spread underneath equally enthralling views.

The Easter bunny visits on April 5 this year, right when we get a mix of springtime rain, cherry blossom petals, and over-the-top brunch menus. Seattle doesn’t lack restaurants serving stellar brunch on the regular, but these spots pull out all the stops for holiday menus. 


Ray's Boathouse and Cafe

Ballard

Seattle’s iconic destination for impeccable views and seafood will serve a full-on $110 buffet upstairs at Ray’s Cafe. Downstairs at the more upscale Boathouse, Easter brings an à la carte menu with holiday breakfast and brunch specials. At 3pm, this floor adds a three-course Easter dinner option for $85.

Sit down to a holiday meal with a view at the Four Seasons.

Downtown/Waterfront

Overlooking Elliott Bay, the Ethan Stowell and Four Seasons Hotel crossover hawks a seemingly endless $145 Easter brunch buffet bookended with a visit from the Easter Bunny. The starter buffet—salads, Dungeness crab deviled eggs, quiche, and a carrot ginger soup—kicks things off under elegant views of the Seattle Great Wheel and passing ferries.

Fairmont Olympic

Downtown

The hotel's iconic Spanish Ballroom hosts an airy brunch buffet set to the sounds of live jazz. From charcuterie and pasta to fresh fruit and seafood, abundant stations offer choice and kids activities keep little diners busy until a visit from the Easter Bunny. 

Charlotte Restaurant puts out a buffet that lives up to the views from the 16th-floor windows of the Lotte Hotel.

Charlotte Restaurant and Lounge

Downtown

The Lotte Hotel’s 16th floor restaurant combines ample views and a $97 holiday meal with a side of live jazz from Second Dimension from 10am to 3pm. Book early to nab guaranteed window seating.

Classy tea, elevated views, and boozy brunch collide at Smith Tower.

The historic gem puts a new twist on holiday traditions with its boozy afternoon tea time. Noon and 2pm seatings include loose-leaf teas, a holiday-themed cocktail, savory bites, and sweet treats in front of a sprawling backdrop of downtown sights.

Copperleaf Restaurant and Bar

SeaTac

The restaurant at Cedarbrook Lodge is not messing around with its $95 grand buffet: a classic spread adds custom omelets and a seafood and shellfish bar, plus various other spring-appropriate dishes. Just don’t tell the Easter Bunny about the rabbit pie. 

Water’s Table

Hyatt Regency Lake Washington’s waterside restaurant boasts a $75 buffet with a special annual tradition: a wall of doughnuts to satisfy any holiday sweet tooth. Yes, the Easter Bunny will be in attendance.

The Lodge at St. Edward

The seminary-turned-hotel inside a state park will throw a holiday brunch all weekend, complete with roasted mushroom frittata and a dry tonkotsu udon stocked with prawns and summer veggies. The elegant dining room draws from the location, tucked into the serenity of a lush 326-acre forest.
