Friday, June 7 - 11:10am Party of two This is the 5th First Watch we've tried and it hit the spot! I'm so happy to know where is one within 30 minutes of our house and my son loves that's it is next to the PGA Superstore. I ordered my usual farmer's skillet with potatoes, tomatoes, bacon, onions, avocados topped with over-easy eggs. My son had the tropical French toast - topped with lots of fresh fruit. Knowing the pancakes are incredible, we shared a banana granola pancake. Holy moly! Delicious!! Our table was full of food and we enjoyed every bite! Our waiter Jeremy was very attentive and friendly, even with so many tables. He was working it! Can't wait to go back again soon! read more

This breakfast is the best at only 630 calories. The avocado toast has a gigantic mound of avocado dressed with a little EVOO and salt. The basted eggs are basically over easy but perfectly done. The coffee was ok. They did not have any non dairy milk to offer except prepackaged soy creamer. Yuck. I would have given them 5 stars if they had non dairy options especially since they seem to be advertising it to be a healthy place to eat. read more

This is the first, first watch we have ever fell Inlove with. This restaurant has a nice concept to it. They provide you with a community table where you can sit with other couples or people if you don't want to wait for a private table, they have A BAR you can sit at, and the atmosphere of this location is amazing. We recently moved to summerville and I miss the bluffton location the most. They always make their food to perfection and have the friendliest staff. We love this place! read more

BY FAR the worst service I have ever experienced. From the host all the way to the manager the staff was slow, rude, and lazy. We waited over 2 hours to be sat down and once we were sat we waited another 20-30 minutes until we were even approached for our order. When confronting the manager about the service, she claimed it was a host issue when both of our surrounding tables were server their food before we even got our drinks taken. I have been to several First Watch locations and have never had this terrible of an experience. They should get rid of the entire staff or shut this one down. And the worst part is it was Mother's Day. Making the entire experience a real downer for our Mother. Would give negative stars if I could! read more

Our server (a young man who didn't give his name) was so inattentive. Tea wasn't refilled, meal needed correction after being delivered (finally asked another server to help), gave up waiting for him to pick up credit card to pay for meal and went to hostess.

I'm honestly shocked because I love first watch! I'm super disappointed in what I paid for. Shown in the picture advertising the trailblazer bowl it looks filling and delicious, but ordering it to go it looks slapped together and less than the portion in the advertisement...my husband was still hungry after. First watch also makes a premade jelly that's delicious for the waffle...instead they threw in smuckers jelly that I could find in my house..if we weren't caught for time we would have dined in..never ordering to go again..or in general ordering from here again. read more

I wasn't a fan of the breakfast apple sausage but the eggs were pretty good, perfectly seasoned. We also ordered the million dollar bacon which was covered in syrup-super delicious and super crunchy! The vodka and kale drink was phenomenal. We also tried the mediation juice but it was a little too sweet for our liking. Still overall really good. Our server was nice and we enjoyed sitting outside in the shade. read more

Normally I love first watch but I was a little disappointed with this location. There was a long waitlist, which was fine but little did we know that you can put your name on the waitlist through the yelp app. Once ordering we had an unusually long wait for our food, which is fine since it was pouring down rain and were not in a rush, but for the wait we were expecting a better presentation of our food. We both ordered the southwestern skillet hash (on special) it was decent but the avocados on top were a little black so it didn't look very appetizing. we also ordered a side of cheesy grits. Not good at all. The cheese was just confined to the top layer of the grits and was burnt and crusty. The cheese was not very good anyway. I do not recommend at all. Had one bite. I am giving this 3 stars because I am giving this place the benefit of the doubt and I believe that is not this restaurant's usual standard. read more

Best breakfast place in Bluffton area, and newest. I have been 2x this week while working and have enjoyed the quality and taste of their food. The inside natural wood look is very appealing. There is a small patio out front, inside there is a community table, and plenty of tables throughout. Service was friendly and engaging, with a manager walking about checking on tables. The menu is big with many obvious breakfast choices, but they are a good step above diner food. Some really good healthy choices too. I enjoyed an omelet with sausage, bacon, ham, mushrooms, onions & cheese. The side of toast was a thick multi-grain bread that was delicious. I loved that the veggies were cooked aldente and retained their flavor. Then today I had an egg benedict which also was very delicious, served on a ciabatta roll. Coffee is served hot in a carafe, which is very good. A great place for breakfast, served all day. But arrive before 11am to avoid a wait. Note they owe at 2:30. read more

Came here on a Sunday morning for brunch and there was a wait but the line moves fast. There is free coffee while you wait. I started with Kale tonic drink, which was refreshing. I recommend it only if you like the taste of Kale. For my entrée, I got the ancient grail bowl - it was flavorful and delicious. I loved the rice and chicken in it and highly recommend trying it if you are looking for something healthy and filling. My friend got the Power breakfast quinoa bowl, which was good too but I liked mine better. You get your check at your table but you have to go to the counter to pay. I didn't know it's a chain as I try to avoid chain restaurants but I loved this place and would definitely come back to try their match waffles. read more

It was excellent with at least 6 medium size shrimp along with a delicious corn and seafood broth. The half Po-Boy was definitely a good size packed with large fried oysters. They had a separate room which I didn't visit. I'm guessing for larger parties or overflow. I believe they also serve alcohol although I didn't see a bar when I was there.

Their fries were really really good. The iced tea was fresh brewed and had good flavor. My other girlfriend got a salad and was thrilled with how good the flavor was. The water wasn't bad but I still opted for iced tea. The weather was so nice we were able to eat outside. They do have an outside and inside areas. And the bakery goods looked so good but we were too full to try anything. Our waitress was really good making sure that we got what we needed and that we had refills before we even asked. Bluffton is such a pretty town to walk around.

They are dog friendly and we were in the area, so we stopped in hopes of a decent lunch. We got…read moreseated in the very confined front porch (right side is what they call it, left front porch if you're facing the building). Our dogs enjoyed their Peanut butter yogurt with apples. My wife ordered the macho salad and I ordered the shrimp & grits. Immediately after placing our order, my plate shows up. Wow, that was fast. Meanwhile we wait while they then deliver my salad. Seems a bit out of order but ok. Then we wait. And get a Caesar salad. And advise - not ours. While waiting we hear the server next to us announce the specials - which our server did NOT inform us of as we arrived. My wife would have ordered different. Finally her salad arrives and we eat. My shrimp and grits were sparse on shrimp and were made with mushrooms and reminded me of ingredients found in an omelet. Not a typical flavor. I finished most but not all of it. Just a bit weird. And that 1/2 a biscuits? A lump of flavorless starch. Our server was nice but seems she wasn't as seasoned as other servers nearby. She should inform everyone of the specials. Ask your server if there are specials. Our cocktails were the best part of our meal. And the prices? That bowl of shrimp and grits, along with my simple side salad were a whopping $23. My wife's salad was comparably priced. The dogs split their bowl, which was $10 just a bit much but they did bring us a bowl of water. All-in-all average food, a bit cramped for seating, over priced and a server that needed to up her game.

A craft beer bar where the bartender knows nothing about beer is quite the craft bar. Couldn't tell…read moreus one IPA on hand that wasn't overly citrusy. Had us try one it was pure citrus. They have almost none of the beers on the menu so we were reliant on the bartender for descriptions. Ordered a burger. Not asked temperature so it of course came out well done. With how thin the meat patty is I don't think you could cook it either way. Fries were good.

We started with Hummus, fresh carrots and pita it has a little olive tapenade to add to the flavor. Great way to start. We also had a chicken sandwich with avocado onions and other good things added Very simple but delicious. They've been here 5 years and hopefully will be here for another 5 ! Good place to start your evening ...
