Nice restaurant for Breakfast & Lunch. Food taste good & excellent service to customers. Just a little pricey. read more

Went a couple of weeks ago for breakfast and the main thing I remember is the seasoned potato's in the skillet! They were so good and overall the meal was really good. Customer service was on point, decor fresh and modern. I'll definitely be back, it's so nice to have this option in the area, finally something new and refreshing! read more

Coming from California on a Saturday, it was a delight finding this place. Reminds me of shiplap from Washington. Love the ambiance, food was amazing. Great serving & clean area read more

Good solid food. Liquor. Great service. What's there to complain about!! Highly recommend the million dollar bacon!

Not very good. I could have played golf with the eggs on my Eggs Benedict they were so overcooked...My wife had one of the hash dishes and you would have been hard pressed to find any vegetables in the dish...Potatoes we're overcooked to the point most of them were black...Now I'm not a connoisseur of fine foods I just want a decent meal for what I pay...Dennys breakfast would have been head and shoulders above this meal... read more

Excellent food. Nice staff. I sit at the bar and they're always pleasant. Highly recommend

The food and service is excellent. The omelets are amazing along with the banana granola crunch pancakes. Every time I've gone to First Watch I've had at least 3 cups of coffee, the different flavor creamers are delicious. Awesome restaurant read more

WARNING!! Raw, uncooked pork sausage! Not once but twice has this happened to my husband and I. Once was through an Uber order where I was promptly refunded due to the matter. The second, most recent occurrence happened on 7/7/2024 on a pickup order. I immediately called the restaurant and asked to speak to a manager and after being asked what was wrong by the woman who answered the phone and telling her, she asked if I wanted it "re-fired"... I said, "no, I am not driving all the way back down there for you to re-cook my sausage, I'd like to speak to a manager because this is the second occurrence and customer safety should be of concern to you..." she placed me on hold and I spoke the manager who gave me some number to corporate to call and leave a message to get a refund of my order but I never got a return call back from anyone, nor my money refunded. I think what's more shocking is that neither person I spoke to ever apologized for potentially food poisoning me or really seemed concerned over the matter. It must happen rather often. You have been warned. Eat here at your own risk. read more

Great breakfast place. Obviously, this place is good because there was a line out the door. We loved the variety and especially the quinoa choice. read more

I love eating at First Watch, however August 22 brunch was a big disappointment from their norm. There were some positives and some challenges. We were promptly seated and got drinks in a timely manner. We ordered the salted caramel donut holes, which are wonderful. I ordered a BLT Benedict- the eggs were not cooked properly- the whites were runny and not cooked. My husband's Chile Chorizo was excellent. Here is where our server needs more training= our server Sanchez never checked on how our food was. Even before my husband tried to get his attention, he was ignoring us. Another server, Norma, saved the day. She was scanning the whole area and making sure we as customers were getting good service while our server had us on terminal neglect. Norma noticed I was not eating my dish and came over to inquire what was wrong. She saw the eggs and took them back to the kitchen and got me a new dish that was properly cooked, and was excellent. Sanchez came to tables right beside us and never checked back with us. When my husband tried to get his attention, he was indignant and wouldn't even look in our direction. He stood at the table next to us and refused to turn around and talk to us. He would go to a top/table and not look around at his other tops also so it was not just us that he was ignoring. He only came back to our table when he brought us the check. Norma should be teaching customer service to the other servers. She is outstanding and refused a tip from us saying she was just doing her job. To the manager at First Watch- you are not paying her enough! We usually enjoy eating at First Watch and usually recommend it to others. It's a cute place that is usually packed. It's always a clean place we can trust. Please train all your servers to be more attentive to customers. Sanchez started well, I have no idea why he decided to ignore us. We will return and if Norma is working, we will request her to be our server as she is awesome! read more

Showed up after receiving a text that our table was ready for 4. I understood we missed but not saying 5 because of the baby we had with us. Of course we understood, but the lady up front was very VERY rude. Her facial expression showed that we were not welcomed. It was a misunderstanding. It was a lighter skin toned lady with blue eyes. It would've been our first time here and won't be coming back here, unless it's another location. There was a gentlemen that was willing to help around, but we decided to leave. Seems popular which is good, but we'll be going to a different spot! read more

Horrible wait, I sat outside for an hour, finally went in and ask and they said they texted me 40 minutes ago no text no name call no nothing. When I said it was crazy to wait for so long the hostess said I had no reason to be rude. read more

Good food , good services , not up to my expectations , place it's clean ... I might come back some other time

Food was really good and the service was amazing they always asked us what we need and always had a smile on the place was a nice and calm scenery and good place to go and enjoy your brunch/ lunch read more

Took my son, mom and aunt for late breakfast on a Friday. I treated myself to Eggs Benny, a cholesterol feast I reserve for special occasions. It was anything but a treat. My dish arrived cold. Like so cold, there's no eating it. I asked the wait staff to address this ($18 of inedible eggs) nicely, my eggs came back fresh from microwave, now hard boiled. Really? It was really disappointing, specially when I'm paying. I have a tip and paid. It was my first experience here and for me, not one I'll soon repeat. Sad, the place looked clean, but with poached eggs, timing is key. I had to go by a coffee place after brunch - I was starving and got an egg sandwich that was hot for $4. I know restaurants and staff can have a bad day, I get that, but microwaving my Benedict was a poor choice. I'll make my own poor choices, thank you very much, mine are a lot more fun! Lol. read more

Wednesday morning, we walk in at 845am. We were quickly greeted and seated. We sat in the west corner of the restaurant and could watch the hustle and bustle. Servers and my server were busy, but remained attentive. We were offered sunrise coffee but declined. The restaurant has a modern barnyard feel. Very open and airy. Great atmosphere with decor to match. There are three gender neutral bathrooms and one male restroom. Tickets are to be paid at a main counter at the front of the restaurant. We ordered The Works and French toast. French toast was a great portion side of 2 slices. The batter used is very light and tasty. The syrup was served warm at the table and was so so so good! Definitely recommend. My friend ordered the works which was an omelet with meat and veggies, toast and breakfast potatoes. It was really good too. I would've added a little more cheese but that personal preference. This is a great new spot in Avondale for breakfast. I'll definitely be back to taste more of the menu. read more

Food and service was great however there could be some improvements. We're a party of two that joined the list online when we got in we were offered to sit at the outdoor bar sounded like a great idea since it's a beautiful day however it was not. Honestly this should not be an option for seating. They have a fan that must be on at all times so you have constant air blowing in your face.I ordered avocado toast delicious but took longer to get then a skillet and bacon which I thought was weird but no biggie. Went to put pepper on my toast only to have it fly back in my face. Delicious breakfast friendly server but in my opinion avoid sitting at the outdoor portion of the bar.. read more

ovo veg here. Ordered the avocado toast, market skillet and frittata rustica. Drink wise i ordered the morning meditation. the food was great, the avocado toast was literally a full avocado, pretty hefty avocado toast. basic though, toast and avo. done. the frittata wasn't the best but it was filling. The market skillet was tasty but small. I would not recommend the morning meditation drink unless you like vegetable drinks. I think i was expecting a more fruity drink so that threw me off a bit. completely my fault. overall the restaurant was great for breakfast. expect a long wait time. they are super busy before 10a. read more

After five minutes of making friendly eye contact with several servers who walked past me, one decided to have pity on me and take my To-Go order. She told me it would be a 'couple bucks' to add a pancake to my Trifecta. After 25min of more waiting, my order was finally ready and a different waitress told me it would be almost seven dollars for that extra pancake. Full menu price. Once I questioned the logic, she told me "that's just the way it is." Didn't bother to consult the other waiter or manager. I'd been there 30min, so I politely voided the transaction. The host with the short pink hair was exceptionally professional and courteous, though. read more

We have been 3 times in the last 2 weeks. The turkey biscuits and gravy are delicious!! I would highly recommend. Service has been great during each visit and one visit was at a different location. There is usually a wait, so prepare for that. read more

The service was excellent, the food was not that good and it was pricey. Not somewhere I would frequent.

Decided to give this place a try one morning. Came here not too long after opening and was seating right away. The place is brand new and has a rustic and country but with touch of modern vibe. All the staff here are super friendly and our waitress, although kind and friendly, had a too much e every for my taste at 7:30am. We ordered a glass of orange juice and tea and let me tell the orange juice is freshly made (you can tell). We got breakfasts sandwiches which came with a said of potato's. The sandwiches were large and semi greasy which I didn't really like and even though I didn't ask, low key wish the side of potatoes was a side of fresh fruit instead. Overall a good experience and way better than most breakfast spots around and not badly priced. I will be coming back again. read more

This is a great place for breakfast or brunch! If you haven't been to a First Watch I would strongly recommend it. They have many locations, but this is one of their newer ones and it restaurant was clean. Locations are usually busy, this one was no different, but there was no wait. The host and server provided good service and food came out in a timely manner. What's great about FW is that they have kind of a season menu approach outside of their standard offerings. So if you're adventurous and want to try something new, then check it out. If you like what you like, stick to their normal items. Either way, you can't go wrong. read more

Five stars all around! Food was great! Service was great! Vibes were great! I drove past this place a few months ago and always wanted to try it so decided to go today for my birthday. Highlight of the meal was the blueberry pancakes. I ordered a kids meal for my son and another blueberry pancake for me. Me and my son just ended up sharing his because it was so big. They had whole blueberries in the pancake which made it so much better. The purple haze juice was also a great addition to the meal. The ambiance was great not too loud so you could actually enjoy eating with friends and family. Definitely coming back. read more

Update: Just went there again today. Everything was just as wonderful as our last visit. We had the French toast & Belgian waffle this time. Delicious!! I made sure to take note of our servers name this time, so I could appropriately gush about her great service in this update. She was just the right amount of attentive. No interruptions of our conversations but there just at the right times to check if we needed anything. Her name was Kirsten. She was awesome! The hostess/seater was great too. Go to this place and enjoy delicious food & great service, in a comfortable & clean restaurant. I don't think you will be sorry. read more

First Watch - Barbara breakfast burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

This was our first time at this location. Every worker we came in contact with was pleasant. Our waitress was sweet and on top of things, she made sure our drinks were full and that we did not need anything. The food was hot and made to order. Let me just say it was super busy too and they had the flow down perfectly and everyone was helping each other out. Literally like a team... I haven't seen that in a little while pretty much anywhere anymore.. so I hope it stays this way... it's close to home. read more

I placed an online order for eight items intended for a business meeting at lunch. The pick up time I specified was 11:15 AM. I didn't get my food until about 11:40 AM. With that being said, I was late in setting up for my lunch meeting. The real issue is I was told when I walked in at 11:25 AM that they were bagging up my order. That was a line fed to me by the staff. When I took exception to the delay with the manager, she got defensive and continued to place responsibility elsewhere. In my case, I placed my order early in the morning and their automated system did not give the restaurant visibility to my order until it was 10 minutes from its pick up time. I realize this is a new location and they are very busy with their lunch time crowd. I would appreciate honesty and accountability in this matter. At least do something for the customer's inconvenience. As a customer, I was fed excuses blaming their ordering system and the big crowd that came in for lunch as the reason for the unacceptable delay. A manager I spoke with presented herself in a very defensive manner. All she did was talk and talk and talk while never allowing me to provide any constructive feedback. I have provided business to other First Watch locations in the valley that were 2 to 3 times bigger than today's order. The performance of this new location was subpar when it comes to service. I hope the corporate office for First Watch reviews this matter and corrects it. #Sorrynotsorry, the excuses given to me by that manager are not my problem. read more

What an incredible breakfast on a Sunday morning! We got here just in time! I have to admit, I was definitely judgmental when my plate arrived. I ordered the eggs, Benedict, with bacon and avocado, but honestly, it was delicious, and the fruit that came with it was outstanding! Well done first watch, well done! I will definitely be back next year. read more

First timer and I will be coming back after this great experience! Service, food, and atmosphere are all amazing. Wait time goes by quick if you know to put your name online ahead of time. Khaliah was such a ray of sunshine and very helpful with options. Would wait extra to make sure to be seated in her section again read more

First time there and it was good. Probably try something different next time. And the wait wasn't too bad for a Friday. I love when places have the option to join a waitlist online. read more

If you're willing to wait a few hours to eat, this is your place. I joined the wait list online, which told me 30-45 minutes at first. When I completed the wait list, it went up to 60-90 minutes. I went into the restaurant and they told me the estimation was 40 minutes since I already waited 20 minutes by the online waitlist. From the moment they told me "40 more minutes", I waited an additional 75 minutes to be seated. By the time I got my food, I waited another 40 minutes. In total, with joining the waitlist online, waiting at the restaurant, waiting for my food, it took 3 hours. The waitress did not check on me, the customer service was horrible. A huge disappointment. I was excited that I had a First Watch so close to home, but now I will not be coming to this location any longer. read more

Love the foods and it's a beautiful place. It was a little crowded but defiantly worth the wait. read more

I have been to First Watch before near my home and in other cities when traveling. I met with a coworker while on vacation for breakfast (she is local I am not). The atmosphere was bright and friendly and a good choice to talk and eat together without being like meeting at a Starbucks. She had a great looking Mexican omelet of some sort with chorizo. I had the farmhouse skillet hash and it was great, first time I tried it. For a beverage I went with a seasonal special blend that had pear juice and it was refreshing. I would recommend trying the seasonal choices whenever you can read more
