Amazing First Watch with friendly and fast service. I came here with my mom and we loved our food and beverages.

Very clean and nice restaurant, friendly and attentive staff. The food is excellent as always! Music in the background but not too loud. Did not have to wait long either. A very pleasant experience. read more

Second time patronizing a First Watch. This location was convenient after kayaking at Creve Coeur Lake, and my vehicle with kayaks fit fine in the large parking lot area. I enjoyed the Tri-Athlete again. At this location, it came with greens instead of a fruit cup, which was a benefit to my health. I would honestly take it either way. She enjoyed the eggs Benedict, which were good, with a slightly firmer yolk than normal. Good energy and vibes at this place...we will be back. read more

Always enjoy a nice brunch from First Watch! Definitely a busy spot for Saturday brunch but worth the wait! Nice warm and family style restaurant. Tried their new and freaking dragon fruit drink and it was great! Also tried the season pumpkin pancakes. Unfortunately, those were a bit underwhelming. I couldn't really taste the pumpkin flavor. I wish there were more non-meat protein options though! Our servers were great! One of our times took awhile to come out and they ended up covering my sister's meal because of it! read more

My friend and I went here for brunch yesterday to celebrate our birthday's. Be sure to sign up for their emails. I used my bday treat from them for buy one meal and get one free Their menu has a nice selection of fresh entrees. They also have different specials that they introduce. The muffins and pancakes are delicious. One pancake is as big as your plate. It can definitely be shared with another person. The millionaire bacon is a crisp sweet treat. They also have some great drinks. First Watch is very popular and you will probably have a wait depending on the time you go. You can join their waitlist online and they will text when your table is ready. read more

I came here this morning in hopes of getting a simple breakfast and First Watch delivered. Let me preface this by stating you have to be a brave soul to conquer this location and at peak times on the weekends. Since I was hungry, I was prepared in the event I had to wait. Upon walking in, I noticed there were a lot of people waiting in the front. I figured I'd at least ask what the wait was and hoped it wouldn't be too long, especially since I was dining solo. She told me it'd be about 15-20 mins, so I went ahead and put my name down. In exactly 15 mins, I was notified my table was ready and off I went. It seems like they update the menu every so often and I noticed they had a few new drinks that I was eager to try. I opted for the Mango Passion Palmer, which comprised of mango and passion fruit, as well as organic ginger and green tea. It was incredibly refreshing and didn't have the after taste of tea, which I thought it would. For brunch, I got the Traditional, which came with two eggs, breakfast potatoes, two chicken sausage patties, and multigrain toast. Note, you have the option to substitute the meat and the toast. I decided to add some mozzarella and spinach to my eggs because why not? The food came out in a timely manner and was hot! The eggs were scrambled perfectly and I liked that the spinach and cheese were mixed in, instead of sitting on top. The breakfast potatoes were seasoned just right and had the perfect amount of crisp, while not being overly done. The toast was thick but paired well with everything else on my plate. Alas came the chicken sausage patties and while I took a couple bites, I realized I could do without. Despite the chaos of the morning, my server, Paige, always made sure to check in on me and made sure my meal was to my liking. Once finished, I went up to the front to pay and was on my way. This place is always a solid option for fast, healthy food and even if there's a wait, I promise you it's worth it. read more

Always a good breakfast/brunch stop at First Watch. Atmosphere is homey. Service is always nice and quick. Food is as you'd expect for good, classic, breakfast food - it's what we usually order. We haven't tried any of the newer menu items. The pancakes are always a must-have and they're huge and fluffy! read more

First Watch is one of the places that I will continually go back to. They have fresh food, using seasonal ingredients. I've eaten throughout the St Louis area, to Columbia, and the food is all the same. Friendly service greats you, great place for a family to grab breakfast or brunch, or to meet with friends. I love their fresh juices - many of which can boost your immune system! Stop in and check them out when you get a chance...you will be going back again too. read more

We absolutely love First Watch. We try to find this restaurant wherever we are! This time we visited and ate the ham and cheese with a side of fruit. He ordered the breakfast burrito. This was ordered by numerous people sitting near us. So yummy! This place is clean, has the nicest staff, and the food is so delicious. If you haven't tried First Watch yet, you are missing out. read more

The food was delicious and service excellent. This place is only open for breakfast and lunch. There is usually a wait to be seated. However, it is worth the wait. There are so many food options to choose from. None have disappointed. Many are unique and full of flavor. I do recommend this restaurant. One thing to be prepared for though is to feel rushed. The servers try to turn the tables over quickly as possible. We received our check with our meal. After about 3-5 minutes while we were eating, we were asked if we needed any boxes. It was a bit over the top. However, putting that aside everything was wonderful. read more

We came to First Watch 4th of July week and were the only ones there at 7:15am. It took awhile for someone to come and seat us but they were very friendly when they did. I ordered the lemon curd pancakes and my daughter ordered the kids French toast. I got a cinnamon iced latte as well that was very good. Fancy but not too sweet. Our order came out pretty quickly but the pancakes were really overdone. I was surprised since they weren't busy and I usually have pretty good food (although I've never been to this location). I didn't end up eating much of it it was just so dry. My daughter loved her breakfast and took the rest of it home. I did like that they have QR code payment now which made it really easy to check out at the end. read more

Nothing better than a yummy, filling brunch before hopping on a flight. The fam suggested First Watch last Tuesday for our last meal together before I flew home. This location is nearest my parents apartment, so off we went around 10am. There wasn't a wait, but the place was bustling. The very first thing I noticed...the smiles and friendliness of literally every staff member. You don't find that very often, and it really makes a restaurant feel brighter. As for our meal selection, the healthy Turkey and an omelette for my parents, while I copied my daughters selection of the tri-fecta, subbing in potatoes for the eggs. The food came out hot and fast, and of course with a smile. All of the plates looked and tasted good, but for my daughter and I the star was the skillet potatoes...crispy with those dark yummy edges, and FULL of flavor. I can't speak for other locations, but this, my only experience at a First Watch, was great. No complaints. Fast, friendly, and clean, with healthier breakfast options available, great food and good portions. read more

This national breakfast/lunch chain offers acceptable if not exceptional dining experiences. Or, put another way: First Watch offers satisfactory menus, meals and service. Like most chains First Watch has a standard designed to appeal to broad audiences--in this case, familiar American breakfast fare. They succeed at that. My steel cut oats with a little fruit were acceptable but seemed pricey at $9 for a humble bowl of easily cooked grain, a few slices of fruit, and a pinch of walnuts. read more

We did take out at First Watch in Creve Cour while my wife was in the hospital. Pancakes were excellent with real maple syrup and butter. Much better than hospital food! We both enjoyed them and will return again! read more

This is a restaurant I really like for both its ambiance and food. My daughter and I come here for breakfast almost every Sunday, but today's meal was truly unpalatable. We ordered two toasts, and at first, only one waiter took the toasts from my daughter's plate and placed them on mine right in front of me. I don't know if his hands were sanitized or not. I don't think I'll dine here again. read more

I came to St Louis for a work trip. I wanted to start my day off with some good breakfast as this place has good reviews. I get seated and the waiter comes around and I ask the waiter if they have lattes and the waiter rudely says "no we don't we're not Starbucks." That comment was uncalled for and really left a bad taste in my mouth for the actual meal. The food was okay but not worth that type of customer service. Next time I'm here I'll just go to Starbucks. read more

I had high expectations for this place, but I was pretty disappointed and really don't want to come back. We showed up and they said it was a 45 minute wait. 5 minutes later, after we walked out, we went back and asked again and magically a table opened up. They don't really have a good understanding of their operations. The waitress was kind of grumpy, but did okay. No complaints about her work ethic. I ordered the blueberry muffin top pancakes. $12. They described them as big pancakes but they were tiny. The fruit on top was good but the biggest blackberry was rotten. The pancakes didn't even fill the plate. They brag on how big their are, but these weren't. Pancakes are so cheap to make. Why skimp. I should have went to Cracker Barrel. They know how to make pancakes. I walked out hungry. Everyone else seemed to like their food. read more

Went for lunch with my dad and sat at the community table. He was a little hesitant but the hostess let us know there was no one sitting there at the moment. One couple joined on the other end of the table. I like the idea of the table! My ham and cheese melt was delicious and the tomato bisque warmed me up on that brisk Spring day. My dad enjoyed his sandwich as well. Great place for breakfast, brunch and lunch. read more

Excellent food, excellent service. Rating this any less than five stars would be considered a sin. A lot of the poor reviews I see here are due to the wait. That should tell you something: it's damn good. Guess what, it's worth the wait. That line is there for a reason. Maybe I have a genius level IQ, but there's this great thing called a reservation. I get on my phone, get on the list, drive over at that time...and guess what? I go right in and get a table. Magic. This company should not be apologizing for wait times. Keep doing everything right, guys. read more

The cutest spot, loved it! We came here for a work breakfast with a party of roughly 20 - the staff was extremely kind, patient, and friendly. Additionally, very efficient and we got our food very quickly for such a large party! Everyone really enjoyed their breakfast choices. Personally I had the Avocado Toast with scrambled eggs and it was perfect. It was surprisingly very filling as well. 10/10 experience. read more

The service was amazing here! We had a large party (around 16 people) and they patiently helped accommodate us all by pushing tables together. Everything on the menu looked good but I ended up getting a morning market veggie omelet, and I swapped out the greens for potatoes. It was delicious! The goat cheese and tomatoes paired perfectly together. My sister got the pesto chicken quinoa bowl, and that was also very enjoyable. The quinoa bowl was lighter than I expected. I definitely would come again as the atmosphere was so welcoming and the ambiance inside was very inviting. read more

The service was great, food was wonderful. You must try the lemon blueberry cornbread.

We went to First Watch for Sunday brunch and while it was good, it wasn't anything special. Started off with the hot chocolate and the taste did not live up to how delicious it was. The mountain of whip cream did not mask the watery texture of the drink itself. I opted for the Chickichanga as my entree with the Vera Cruz sauce on the side. Overall, it was meaty with the chicken and chorizo but lacking in flavor even though it was supposed to have green chilies. I thought the Vera Cruz sauce was very bland so I found myself adding hot sauce to the dish. My wife got the barbacoa breakfast tacos and they were a bit creamy for our taste with the combination of avocado and chive cream with not enough meat. I'd probably come back but will opt for some of their other options next time. read more

I know this is a chain restaurant, but everything feels local when you are here. The coffee is hitting the bottom of your cup before you get yourself fully settled into your chair, smiles everywhere, the food comes out relatively quickly, and everything on the menu I've ever had is hot and fresh and delicious (the skillets are a highlight). I do recommend you check the line and check in ahead of time because sometimes it can be busy, especially on Sundays. Super consistent, this is a regular spot for our family, and I highly recommend it to you. read more
