Mother’s Day Weekend 14th & 15th March 2026

A Celebration of Motherhood, Here and Around the World

Mother’s Day is celebrated in many ways across the world, but everywhere it shares the same meaning: a moment to pause, come together, and honour the women who nurture, support, and shape our lives.

In the UK, Mother’s Day is known as Mothering Sunday, a tradition that began centuries ago as a day to return to your “mother church.” Over time, it gently evolved into the warm family celebration we know today, a chance to reconnect, gather around the table, and spoil Mum just a little.

At Doost & Amici, we have been proud to celebrate Mother’s Day here in Kennington for the past 26 years, welcoming neighbours, families, and familiar faces back year after year. For us, it has always been about community, shared meals, and making people feel at home.

A Day with Deep Roots

While Mothering Sunday is uniquely British, the idea of honouring motherhood is far older and wonderfully international.
Across cultures and centuries, mothers have been celebrated as life‑givers, caregivers, and the heart of family life. In parts of Europe and the Mediterranean, Mother’s Day is marked in spring with flowers, long lunches, and time spent together. In ancient Persian culture, long before modern calendars, women and mothers were honoured through festivals that celebrated nurturing, patience, and the life‑giving role of Mother Earth itself.

Different dates, different traditions — but always the same sentiment: gratitude, love, and togetherness.

Mother’s Day Weekend at Doost & Amici

Saturday 14 & Sunday 15 March 2026

To mark Mother’s Day weekend, we have created a special way to celebrate around the table.

Brunch
On Saturday, 14 and Sunday, 15 March, our brunch menu will be served as usual for orders up to 11:30 am.

Lunch & Dinner
From midday onwards, we switch to our special Mother’s Day menus. For the rest of the day, we will be serving only these Mother’s Day options:

• Family Sharing Feast
  Served family‑style and designed for sharing,  perfect for relaxed, celebratory gatherings.

• Three‑Course Set Menu
  A thoughtfully curated experience for a leisurely lunch or dinner.

  Kids’ Menu — Under £10

  This Mother’s Day weekend, we’re introducing a kids’ menu under £10, making it easier and more affordable for larger families to celebrate together, because Mother’s Day is about everyone at the table.

• How it works:

• 
  Sunday 15 March: both menus are offered as set experiences
  Saturday 14 March: the same dishes are available à la carte so that you can build your own meal at your own pace

Whether you’re continuing a family tradition or starting a new one, we would love to welcome you to celebrate Mother’s Day with us.

From all of us at Doost & Amici, we look forward to celebrating the mothers, grandmothers, and mother‑figures who mean so much — here in Kennington, and around the world.
