UNESCO heritage
Italian gastronomy is part of the world’s Intangible Cultural Heritage, recognised by UNESCO for the tradition, conviviality and regional identity behind every dish. It’s the same tradition we bring to Duke Street.
Fresh homemade pasta and focaccia, carefully selected Italian products from small family producers, Sunday Aperitivo and catering for celebrations.
At Mama’s Way, we believe food should be made properly — using honest ingredients and traditional methods. We work with small family producers across Italy, bringing authentic flavours to Duke Street, Reading.
From fresh pasta prepared daily to curated pantry essentials, everything we offer reflects the Italian tradition of gathering around the table.
Walter, our founder, sits on the board of RIAE (Fipe) and serves as Secretary of the Italian Chamber of Commerce — a role that keeps Mama’s Way connected to Italy’s food and hospitality community at every level.

Many of our producers — from Parmigiano Reggiano ageing houses to small olive oil estates — are long-standing partners, not spot-buys. That continuity is what lets us guarantee quality, not just claim it.
We choose family-run producers over mass distribution — the same names you’d find in a proper Italian deli, not a supermarket aisle.
A curated selection from our Italian shelves — the staples worth keeping close.
