    First and foremost it's cool that first watch knows that you have arrived and there is know need to check-in when you arrive! Greeting to be seated was warm and friendly. Stacy, who served as the as the food provocateur while I was there this morning was exceptionally outgoing and kind! The omelette bravado was everything I wanted, with a large helping up avocado and a perfectly cooked egg. And don't get me started on the jam compote makes the trip worth it every time! The feel in restaurant was bustling this morning, but still felt like you could hold a conversation at the table.

    Although I don't usually review a chain, I felt that First Watch's new "shrimp and grits" was truly exceptional. It came out hot and perfectly seasoned... with a little kick! I also ordered my standby favorite: million dollar bacon. Always perfectly prepared. As the usual, staff is exceptional. Parking is so easy... what more could a person want?

    I came a little late in the day but Lauren my server was very attentive without being annoying and a delight! A bug got in my coffee and she not only brought me a new cup but a fresh pot - blessings to her because I needed that coffee!! The atmosphere was pretty chill being after lunch on a weekday - I was able to journal and reflect in peace. Without feeling rushed as no one needed my table. A consistent good vibe as always, First Watch!!

    Great service by our server! She was quick and kind. The hostesses were also very pleasant. The place was packed on a Saturday morning and we only had to wait 5 minutes for a table - I was shocked! The place was clean and well staffed. The food was good. Came out as expected and was very filling. First watch food is good, but nothing spectacular in my opinion. The honey caramel crunch iced coffee was not a hit for me. It oddly tasted alcoholic even though it wasn't.

    Uhh... Just why. Cardboard in water.. Unclean bathrooms just pitiful. THE POTATOES WERE BURNT. My favorite part ;(.

    The Traditional Breakfast with goetta

    Hadn't be here in a while. I love that they have an online waitlist! The food was delicious, our server was on top of it! Never had to ask for refills, made sure our food was tasty and was just very nice. The restaurant was clean and we will definitely be going back again soon!

    The food was pretty tasty but we were pretty underwhelmed for the cost. I love the servers here but hate the way you pay. This is the same for most locations but thankfully this one wasn't busy. I did enjoy walking around the shopping complex after!

    Was in a surly mood and looking at a wait did nothing to change that. Was told 15 minutes and I took the over. I lost the bet, 10 minutes tops, great service, great food (as always). Left in a much better mood. My grandson forgot to order his favorite Millionaire Dollar Bacon so I flagged down the waitress and it came out like she forgot to bring it instead of us forgetting to order it. I had the traditional, as always. Will probably go to First Watch again tomorrow as there is one right around the corner from the hotel I should note two things, 1: I love first watch and have only had two bad experiences is many, many visits. 2: The reason for four stars and not five is I have to go up to pay instead of the wait staff taking it up-I hate that. It is corporate policy that won't change but I won't change either. PS: the doors were super cool (see photo).

    Chile Chorizo

    Ordered a chile chorizo omelet to-go, and it tasted great until I saw that there was hair in it. Needless to say, my appetite was ruined and it ended up in the trash.

    Million $ bacon sammy

    Really good experience. The new million dollar breakfast sandwich is really good. Could be a bit larger... I hoping this becomes a regular menu item.

    I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet. I love First watch and their staff is always friendly. I got the chicken Cobb salad which on weight watchers is not too bad. The salad has black beans corn chicken several types of lettuce crushed tortilla chips. I got a Lemon vinaigrette with it. So fresh and light. The food here is always fresh and presentation is spot on.

    Iced coffee with oat milk and Tangerine Dream.

What the village lacks is actual sit down food spots. (I previously worked at the Hammel House with Mrs. Bowman- we miss them!) The Butter Churn is filling a void and doing a good job at it. The menu is nice, soups- sandwiches & salad options. Our niece really enjoys their potato chips (I think they make them in house, I could be wrong.) The decor is eclectic, it feels like they have small collections and perhaps bought things locally from the antique shops. The back room had a Christmas Santa collection and it was expansive. Coca-Cola, clowns, vintage troll dolls- it all just feels like visiting someone's quirky aunts home. It feels homey and nice. The last time we went we had about twenty mins before closing and were popping in for ice cream. We were told...and reminded multiple times that they wanted to be out of the building at exactly closing time. We said we understood (I mean yes- I also love being off work on time) but the constant reminders felt like they were shoving us out the door when we were just placing ice cream orders and trying to pay. It might have just been a stressful night. We did pop in the next day and I asked about their coffee selection. The response we got was a bit dismissive and they told us "we have black coffee, we don't do any of that fancy stuff. Go down the street to Taylor's." I was going to order the regular coffee but it was off-putting so we did as they recommended and left. I know I don't *look* like a local- for obvious reasons. I don't want to believe this is why we received weird service compared to other patrons. Regardless, we have enjoyed the actual food and ice cream here. Our family likes it and visits weekly- I will just trust them that they get good consistent service every time.

    Good day fellow Yelpers!…read more This morning we were looking for an early lunch joint and the first place we stopped was packed so, we decided to stop at another place to try something new. First of all, walk in the back door, not the front. The outside area has a nice seating area but no shade, still good for a good weather day visit. Inside is old school, you can definitely tell as soon as you walk in, it's hasn't been updated in a LONG time but honestly it's kinda cool to see it in what was probably pretty close to how it originally looked. Walk around the counter to place your order with the menu clearly displayed on the wall. The chef is a one man show and cooked to order. He was friendly and attentive despite being alone. On to the food... Finally a place that salts fries properly without needing more. It's the little things for me I normally have to ask for salt every where but they were piping hot and salty!! I ate the smothered chicken sandwich. Fresh slice of tomato, well seasoned roaster bell peppers were the highlight. I felt it lacked seasoning but maybe I'm too much of a sodium junky. The red aioli seemed too thin but that could have been due to the juicy tomato. Bacon Cheeseburger was fresh and the toasted italian was good. Burger of course was sliding off the bread every time a bite was taken. This is a solid place to try. I'm secretly wishing we would have gotten breakfast but that we'll do next time.
