At 76 Walthamstow High Street since 1929 - Luigi Manze built and opened 76 High Street as a Pie & Mash Shop in 1929. Originally from Ravello in Italy, the Manze family emigrated to the UK in 1878. They went on to found an empire of 14 Pie & Mash Shops across London, particularly in the East End, including the Walthamstow branch. The building boasts a marble/tile interior fitted with dining booths. The exterior has been restored to its original condition in 2004/2005.
