Persian-owned, Moseley-grown
The Persian table.
TenTen is Persian-owned and family-run. By day it does the brunch Moseley loves — halal full English, pancakes, good coffee. Look closer and you'll find the food we grew up with: kotlet patties with warm flatbread, bandari sausage from the southern ports, saffron in the chai.
No fusion, no fuss — two food cultures on one sunlit corner, each done properly.
Bandari
sosis bandariSpicy sausage, potato and crispy grilled onion in tomato purée, with flatbread and yoghurt.
Kotlet
kotlet-e goushtPersian meat and potato patties with fresh tomato, pickles and flatbread.
Aubergine & Walnut Dip
kashke bademjanMashed aubergine with garlic, dried mint, fermented yoghurt and walnuts.
Finish with a havij bastani — fresh carrot juice, vanilla ice cream afloat, crushed pistachios.
About us
A young team that keeps training.
TenTen is run by a young crew who take this seriously — people who treat coffee and cooking as crafts worth studying, not jobs to get through.
Specialist courses go in the diary through the year: barista work, kitchen technique, service. Nothing new reaches a table until it has been practised properly, which is why the flat white tastes the same on a quiet Tuesday as it does on a full Saturday.
The idea came from Amir Naseri, who has been in Birmingham since he was two and grew up between two ways of doing breakfast. He wanted a café that met every expectation you would have of a traditional English one, and then added something from the cafés back home — which is why the Persian Omelette is cooked the way grandmothers cook it in Iran, and why the Persian Chai Latte — saffron, rose, pistachios — exists at all.
I've always loved experimenting with food and drinks, coming up with new ways to add a little something special. Amir Naseri, founder — BirminghamLive, 2024
Since opening on Alcester Road in 2024, the aim has not moved: set the standard for the Moseley Village café community, one table at a time.
