Outstanding cafe, with superb and broad range of cafe food, beautifully cooked. Right in the heart of the town with plentiful parking nearby.

I visited Towester to have a good look around the town, visited the museum and I walked past the Ten Hands cafè looking at the board and noticed award winning, I turned about and walked in to a pleasant looking Cafè, with great tentative staff who found me a table even it was slightly full.I ordered I think was the signature dish with skin on fries, well the food came on a wooden board that was well presented and brought by a friendly member of staff.The food was delicious and I was making groans to how good it was, that I must of been seen by customers, the food was heaven even the home made dipping sauce was so good.Cakes look so good on show in the front counter glass display.I would highly recommend this place as I could have eaten everything off the menu but I will leave it to another time.Thankyou so much to the young friendly staff and the chef that cooked the amazing food.Don't pass through Towester without going to this wonderful place.I give a Ten Hands out of ten.

We were really looking forward to our visit to 10 hands for my mothers birthday but unfortunately there were a number of problems. We turned up, after booking and paying a deposit for a table for 7 people (5 adults, 1 toddler and 1 baby in the pram) to be seated at a 4 person table. The staff told us that this was a new policy of the management that any 6 person bookings were allocated a table for 4. The staff on shift were helpful in trying to source a bigger table for us to all sit, this took a while (at least 10 minutes).Finally seated on a 6 person table we were given menus but out order was not taken for at least another 20 minutes (we had to eventually ask). The staff were very busy as the resturant was clearly overbooked. One of our party ordered a dish but asked for different bread.Finally ordered, our food arrived and was OK, not worth the wait and hassle so far but we got on with it. One order was totally incorrect but we just got on and wanted to leave. Finally coming around to pay the bill was mad! The person who had a dish with different bread was charged for a totally different meal with extras like 'extra cheese' and ' extra maple syrup', added on separately (he didn't even have any maple syrup!) this made his total around £20 for a plate of avocado, salsa, bread and jalapeños. A totally vegetarian dish. When we queried the bill we were told that the staff had no control and that it was all decided by 'upstairs' so they had to ask 'upstairs' to change it. Eventually this was resolved and we finally paid and the bar and left! I had brought cake and candles for my mum but we just wanted to get out so left before doing this.I had thought booking ahead and paying a desosit would avoid any issues on the day but honestly this was not a fun experience in the slightest and I wouldnt be back or recommend sadly.The staff were polite and tried to be helpful but it appeared they had no power or flexibility, always saying they had to check with 'upstairs'.

Popped in for breakfast, by far one of the best I've ever had, food was amazing. Staff super friendly, prompt service. Top tip, book a table ?.

The food and cakes are amazing. It can get a bit loud in the cafe just because of how busy it gets. This can also impact on how quickly the drinks are served. However, the staff are really friendly and accommodating.

Lovely place to grab a bite to eat.They are award winning and you will see why after a visit.Everything is done very well, they care about the quality of the food and not just making a quick profit. The food was exceptional so I definitely see why they got awards.The drinks were perfect too. Can't wait to visit here again

Full english for me and Vegan pancakes for my Fiance and Stepdaughter, food was exceptional. The only issue was the waitress, very rude and moody and did not make us feel welcome at all.

Had an amazing time at this vibrant place. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Baby changing facilities available on request. The food was scrumptious. Would highly recommend the ginger ale mojito! ?

Ten Hands Cafe is consistently exceptional. I regularly go for breakfast on Friday mornings and have tried several items from the menu including the Eggs Royale; Full Veggie breakfast, Huevos Rancheros and Avocado smash. I am coeliac which is no problem as there is gluten free bread and tortillas available. The food has always been fresh and cooked superbly. My favourite drink is the apple infusion tea which comes in a large pot but the coffee is also superb. The front of house staff are incredibly friendly and helpful; and there is a lovely atmosphere with people of all ages clearly welcomed. My absolute favourite place in the area to eat and drink.

Stopped for a break from the A5, found handy free parking with electric charging point just round the corner. Food and service were excellent. Tasty homemade soup with cheese scone and the most amazing toffee apple brioche with vanilla custard, followed by freshly made coffee. Couldn?t fault anything. Shame I don?t live closer!

Lovely little cafe, I really wasn't expecting this quality of food! Service was great, it was quite loud but that's only because it was full with lots of people chatting and laughing - not much to be done about people enjoying themselves. I'm looking forward to another visit.

The perfect breakfast: 5 different choices, we all had delicious, hot food efficiently served . Attractive, healthy and joyous eating. My order, an English breakfast, was hot with immaculate fried eggs, tasty bacon rashers with beautifully prepared deep golden crunchy rinds, almost sweet and then salty back with just the right amount of cooking. The highlight for me was the best potato rösti-esque concoction that I've ever tasted anywhere in the world, including Switzerland! Staff were attentive, cheerful and quick to respond to additional orders in spite of a roaringly busy morning service. The staff were always smiling, but the food itself made our stomachs smile even more.Well done everyone at Ten Hands Café Bar: your teamwork was seamless and you made it all looked so effortless.We can't wait for our next Gormengastric feast.
