While the service was a bit slow when we came, it made up in friendliness. The food was solid breakfast fare. There's definitely something on the menu for anyone which was awesome. The ambiance was definitely giving cozy and welcoming. My husband and I had a couple of issues that were fixed immediately by the manager/waiter (For that I'm not going to put them in the review). I need one more visit to really get a feel of this restaurant and then will update my review. read more

Amazing breakfast experience at first watch! Came here with my family when they visited for breakfast. Our server was great, everyone was happy with their meals and I felt like I was back home in a Jersey diner. Highly recommend!

Delicious food and fantastic service. Showed up during lunch rush and got food quickly

In a business park just off the freeway in Colorado Springs, this restaurant is a busy hotspot. We were promptly seated despite the crowds. The menu features creative breakfast options, including healthy choices, which I opted for. The fully seated area was a bit loud, despite that, the food was delicious, plentiful, and filling. Good coffee and juice complemented the meal, with excellent service by Colleen providing a great start to our day in Colorado Springs. read more

Yana our server was very kind and knowledgeable. Made our breakfast selection amazing!

I came in for a to go order and ordered the Farmhouse Hash. Upon arriving at home I realized the toast was burnt, most of my potatoes in the hash burnt so hard they were hard as rocks, and I didn't see or eat any bacon as prescribed in the meal. I have been to other First Watch's in Denver and have had better experience read more

I gave an extra star since I ordered delivery and I am being aware and understanding that delivery time can affect an order. My delivery was speedy, that's not the issue. The issue is that entire components of the order were missing and the quality of the food is poor at best. Turkey Bacon Gravy and biscuits, But there was no gravy at all on the plate or in a separate container. The biscuit was hard and actually toasted, or really stale? . Like an over toasted piece of bread that crumbled into crumbs when I tried to eat it. The pancakes were rubbery and had an odd flavor, my over medium eggs were completely runny and had completely run out of the yolk, with some parts of translucent egg white floating in it, not edible as it was clearly undercooked. If I were eating in the restaurant, I would've sent the whole plate back, but since it was delivered, I did not have the option to get it all the way back to the store. Like I said I am understanding of challenges related to delivery, but this meal was clearly not quality to begin with. read more

First Watch - Extra dry biscuit minus turkey gravy, ( egg was removed and tossed from the plate due to being undercooked) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

It's nice, clean, and casual with excellent servers and tasty food. However, it takes a while to get comfortable with their menu. It's very long and complete, but the servers will help you but it's worth staying and eating because the restaurant is comfortable for friends to chat and celebrate while eating excellent food .I think of it as being a little bit of an upscale ,casual restaurant ! read more

The best breakfast place - Period! Visiting family on Labor Day Monday, the place was packed with lots of folks waiting on benches and chairs outside. We were told we'd have to wait 45-55 minutes. We went to some shops across the parking lot for an hour. They took our phone number and texted us when our table was ready. An hour later we received the text, got a table, and wow, was it worth the wait! The menu was SO much more than the standard breakfast/brunch fare! The Juice Bar concoctions were excellent! The Power Breakfast Quinoa Bowl and the A.M. Superfoods Bowl were exceptionally delicious! Our family we were visiting ordered bacon and eggs and honey-glazed chicken! Evidently it's their favorite, as they raved about it! I saw several other entrees I'd be happy to try, but I sure enjoyed those bowls! The service was fast and friendly. We'll return every time we're back in The Springs! read more

Very clean place, service was just okay. Not the greatest. Waited a little longer than I thought. Refills weren't happening. Food had no flavor. Nothing wow about this place. Coffee was great! Thought I would give it a try.‍ read more

I ordered a benedict. I Had one months ago at this location and it was great. I always request my eggs poached hard. It was on a piece of bread, ok, a Florentine with about 5 very small pieces of spinach, a thin slice of tomato and very little thin hollandaise. Also my eggs came whites and yolk runny, I sent it back. About 10 minutes later, my hubby was finished with his croissant sandwich which he said was superb, the benedict came, first bite, egg shell. I took the rest of it home. The manager did comp the meal and give me a bowl of fruit to nibble while I waited. I really suggest they go back to the benedict they used to make. I won't order one again from First Watch however, we visit there fairly regularly and we usually love the food. read more

I had breakfast this morning with my wife, I ordered the Lemon pancakes and the waitress asked if I wanted 1 or 2 but did not say they would charge for extra lemon and the pancake which was an extra charge of 2.99 for the pancake and 2.99 for the lemon curd. It was ok but not worth 12 dollars for two pancakes. We asked about the extra charge and the waitress wasn't impressed and said yes that's what we do, Charge, charge, charge. Please be careful when ordering from this restaurant, you may be searching for an extra 10$ bills in the end to cover the hidden costs. We spent 55$ in the end for two people to eat a humble breakfast. They piled everything on one plate and we had to ask for an extra plate to fit on our little table that they sat us. I was disappointed to say the least. read more

Not our first rendezvous with First Watch...they are one of our go-to breakfast places. Visited this store with some relatives for brunch. We initially were seated in the middle of the room, we prefer booths and after a quick scan, there were a couple of empty ones that were being cleaned. Asked the hostess if we could be moved to a booth, which she agreed to and then I noticed the booth by the window and asked her to seat us there, which we immediately accommodated. After we were seated, I went back up and thank her for being so kind with my pushy request :-). Breakfast orders included the lemon ricotta pancakes, the Tres leche French toast, the half sandwich/half salad option, and the Trifecta. Also had one of the morning tonic drinks with the beets and OJ...that is a great juice for the morning! Their coffee is great and service was continuous to make sure the cups didn't run dry. First time having the 1/2 and 1/2 meal and enjoyed it! I was wanting greens so had the half of a Cobb salad. Did not care for the ranch that came with the salad and Colleen was gracious in changing out the dressing to the lemon one, which really set the Cobb off. Blue cheese and lemon are good together, who knew? LOL! The sandwich was the roast beef (which was rare and cut thin) with Harvarti and arugula. I had the tomatoes held for this sandwich. Comes with a horseradish sauce that was very flavorful but not hot at all! Everything else satisfied as well and were common dishes as we've had them before. The lemon ricotta pancake is along the lines of a Swedish pancake but not so risen. Lots of lemon custard along with some strawberries for freshness. So, so good!!!! So four out of five stars...why? I'm not so quick to put out five stars, it has to be just an amazing experience and I love to do those for the small, mom/pop owned places. The chains are great if they get four stars in my opinion! Again, just this Yelper's reasoning. First Watch is always consistent no matter where you go and their menu offers tons of choices for everyone! read more

First Watch is hands down my favorite breakfast spot. This location always had the friendliest staff and is one of my favorites to go to. The food is incredible ... the Million Dollar Bacon, Farmhouse Hash and Kale Tonic are my go to's. I'd order them every day if I could!! This location can get a bit busy so plan accordingly! read more

The place is nice, the service is good but the food unfortunately was only alright. I had the eggs Benedict and the bread they'd used was too dry and the hollandaise had way too too much lemon. The bacon and poached egg was good. read more

Very cute breakfast/brunch spot, love the decor and the staff are very friendly. We didn't wait long at all to be sat and greeted by our server. We all tried an item off their fall menu because it's for a limited time and unique options! We chose to share the churros, for it being an appetizer I didn't like that it came out with our main courses and they were cold and soggy. Very disappointing. I chose the eggs Benedict and it was delicious! The sweet and savory were just enough, and they let me substitute potatoes instead of toast. The hot chocolate was some of the best I've had, very sweet and not too hot. read more

First Watch - Morning meditation we ate the food too fast to photograph - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

This review is based on service only. We did not sit to have the food. The place is nice and was pretty busy on a Friday morning. I had checked in online and was quoted 5-10 minutes. Checked in about 10 am with our party of 2. Again was told by the host about 5-10 minutes. We ended up leaving at 10:20. When I asked to be removed from the list I was told I was about to be sat. Unfortunately, I would not have time to sit, order, and eat comfortably before my appointment. Food looked good from what I could see but didn't have a chance to try. Will try later with more time, possibly. read more

Food was weird, pancakes tasted funny,I asked Server if multi grain tastes normal. She assured me they did. One bite and that was it. sausage was flavored bad. Only liked the sour dough toast. Otherwise all the flavors were weird. Did not like at all. read more

One of the few breakfast places on the east side of town, and it gets really busy on weekend mornings. The food is great! I had an egg white omelette with breakfast potatoes.

We from New Mexico. By accident we found this place. I think one of the best places to eat. Great service fast Very friendly .good flavor we taste cornbread one of the best Thankio read more

Food is very good. Portions are big enough to sooth the glutinous many. Service is pretty good and generally pleasant but a couple folks have RBF and another is constantly cursing even when speaking loud in front of junior customers The yucky Coffee for $4 is awful not to mention a complete ripoff The warm syrup jar is a nice touch Every dish I've seen looks like the photos online and in their menu. I'd return but wouldn't bother on the weekend even with a reservation read more

I am so glad there is one in Colorado Springs. I frequented it when I lived in Kansas City and I will say the food and service are always great. Definitely worth a breakfast or brunch visit read more

YUM! We came in for brunch on a snowy morning. There was still about a 25-minute wait. The front entrance was crammed with people waiting so we gave our information to the hostess (their system is to text you when it's your turn) and waited in the car. The text message said we were next so we make our way inside, but it actually means to go to the hostess stand to be seated. Just a head's up because we unknowingly stood around for a bit longer than needed. We sat at a booth, which I was pleased with because the open concept inside makes it feel less private if you sit at a table in the middle of the floor in my opinion. Our server promptly came to our table for our drink order. Their juices are tasty! The morning meditation is my favorite. It was my first time trying the spiked lavender lemonade. Although sweet, I really enjoyed it. Food order was perfect: BLT Benedict & Ham/Gruyere Melt. The hollandaise sauce was yum on the eggs. Great place to grab breakfast/lunch. There are lots of healthy options and not so healthy options. Just be prepared for a bit of a wait. read more

Walked in to grab a bite and get some work done. Loved that there was free WiFi! I was quickly seated and my waitress was almost immediately there to greet me. She was fabulous and attentive. I had the Sunny Seoul bowl (a seasonal option) and it was just okay. Had a bit of a funky after taste. The reason I am knocking this down a star is because hot tea was $4! I can buy a box for that cost. I was brought a selection to choose from and some hot water ... but man, that felt like quite the up charge. The place was clean and well decorated. It's a cute spot. read more

Went here with the fam for the FIRST time today & I'm so glad we did! Food was so amazing & delish, the lemon ricotta pancakes are chefs kiss!

ALWAYS an AMAZING experience and our GO-TO breakfast place in the Springs! Service always exceptional. Checking in online is the secret ingredient. Food is GREAT. Ambiance is peaceful and family oriented. There's those reviews who are overly critical on here, or who think they are righteous for only giving a 4-Star review.. psh y'all are just Annoying. Live a little. With every great experience we had here, this place deserves a 5-Star. Which is what they are getting for me! Great job FW! read more

Sat down today for 10 minutes without as much as a single person out of 4 acknowledging our presence to even say we'll be with you soon or anything. Walked out really disappointed. Host that sat us down even said have a good day as if we'd been served. Sighs read more

I have been to other FirstWatch locations, but this location wasn't on par with the other locations. Our server was nice, but we rarely saw her and it seemed that she had more tables than she could handle. My friend and I both ordered eggs benedict - my friend had the Florentine and I had the salmon and we both had seasoned potatoes instead of greens. I think the kitchen may have been overwhelmed as well because both our cibattas were toasted to extra crispy, our eggs were poached hard, and the potatoes were over seasoned and were super salty. It took us awhile to see our server and when we did, she asked how everything was. I showed her my eggs and she said she would get us both new poached eggs, which she did. These came out much better and had extra hollandaise sauce with them. I don't know if this level of service was normal prior to COVID or if this is a steep learning curve with COVID. read more

First Watch - Al pastor hash ! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

I've ordered the same meal for delivery 3 times now and am sad to say that the food has been packaged and cooked differently each time. I'm rather shocked by that. This last time, the French toast, egg, and bacon were all in the same box together along with containers of syrup that had broken the egg open so it was all over everything, which is not how I like to eat my French toast, soaked in over easy egg. The Morning Meditation has been delicious 2 of the times, but this time it tastes like pure beet juice, lemon, and turmeric. It is quite nasty to drink and I'm about to dilute it with OJ that I happen to have in the house. But I shouldn't have to do that. Consistency is key here. Package and prepare the food the same way every time. I probably won't be ordering again because it's not worth the risk. The only reason I kept trying is because my first order was absolutely perfect in every way. I kept hoping for a repeat but that hasn't happened. Such a shame. read more

This place is so cute and they have a good amount of seating. We were surprised on a Sunday morning when there was zero wait time to be seated! This place offers a good variety of entrees; whether you're looking for a small, hearty, or healthy breakfast. They have a great kids menu too, with both sweet and savory options. My daughter got the half waffle plate that comes with a side of meat and a fruit cup. I was pleasantly surprised to see that her plate came with two generous slices of bacon! You don't see that much on kid's portions. I will say though, that her waffle was kind of hard and crunchy. It lacked the fluff that you'd expect from a waffle, but the flavor was good. I ordered the classic eggs benedict, which comes with a side of dressed mixed greens but I opted to sub for their seasoned potatoes. It was the perfect side to my eggs benedict. My husband ordered the carnitas breakfast burrito which came with lots of fillings. I only wish that for the price of that burrito, it came with a side. So the burrito alone seemed pricey. All in all, we enjoyed our experience. The staff was friendly and service was very fast. The coffee was enjoyable while we waited for our food; and I liked the added touch of having flavored creamers on the table! read more
