    Monterey Club
    Crissy H.

    Monday - Friday, I am not a breakfast person. However, on some weekends, if I'm running errands in the morning, breakfast/brunch is on the list. It was First Watch or Oldwest, as you can see, I chose First Watch. I was going to get one of my usuals, but what's the point in wanting to explore a menu when you're always getting what is your "usual"? Monterey Club: Turkey, bacon, avocado, organic mixed greens, tomato, Monterey Jack, and mayo on sourdough. This was DELICIOUS, so delicious, I danced after the first bite. My goodness, everything was so fresh, and the avocado was perfect. There was enough to cover all of the sandwich. It was fresh, creamy, and a beautiful green. They didn't hide an imperfect avocado in the sandwich (some places do that); it was of great quality, through and through. Everything married perfectly together, and the bacon was crispy. You were able to get bacon, with every bite taken. Fruit Cup: The fruit, as always, was fresh and hit the spot. Even with being a to-go order, the customer service is always present. A sweet young man made sure to be close to the door, so he could open it as I exited. The restaurant is always clean and well-kept.

    I came here on a Sunday morning to have brunch and despite it being very busy we were able to get seated pretty quickly. I do wish there was a better way for them to deal with queuing as the front of the restaurant was very, very packed as people waited to get seated. Their spring menu was very interesting and I loved the specialty flavors, which is what we ended up ordering. We decided on the berry French toast with a lavender whipped topping, which was incredible. Usually, I'm not one for a sweet brunch. I tend to lean towards savory however this was a great way to start my morning as the French toast wasn't overly sweet and it was cooked perfectly so it wasn't super soggy like most French toast I have had. My friend chose the breakfast bowl, which was super filling and she had a ton of leftovers to take home! Our waitress was also really nice and took the time to answer my questions about the menu.

    This, was my very first time I have had the privilege of coming here for breakfast with my daughter. We were greeted immediately and our server was Ms. Angel who was very prompt, polite and very friendly and gave service with a smile. We had the Pumpkin Spice Donuts $7.30 Warm cake donut holes tossed with pumpkin spiced sugar and lightly dusted with powdered cinnamon, Tri-Fecta $16.81 Two cage-free eggs any style with either a light and airy Belgian waffle or a multigrain pancake. Plus your choice of bacon, smoked ham, chicken apple sausage patties, turkey or pork sausage links. and Farmhouse Hash $17.16 Two cage-free eggs any style atop fresh, seasoned potatoes with bacon, avocado, house-roasted onions and tomatoes with Cheddar and Monterey Jack. Served with our whole grain artisan toast with all-natural house preserves. *Please note: Our potatoes are cooked with onions. We are unable to accommodate onion removal requests for dishes containing potatoes. For my pancakes, Ms. Angel recommended the banana crunch pancake, it was yum! At the register we met Nico who is the front of the house manager. He too was very friendly and polite and runs a great crew on his shift. I don't this very much, but I can honestly say like the Terminator "I'll be back!" Hope to see you there.

    Certainly one of our favorite breakfast restaurants. The table service is always prompt and attentive. The food is delivered they way we ordered it. If I want extra-crispy bacon, that's what I get. The food is fresh and the seasonal dishes are excellent. On this visit, we tried their Blueberry Lemon Cornbread. That was a treat! The ambiance is smartly decorated. It can be noisy during peak times. There is outside tables if the weather is nice. This restaurant is a neighborhood favorite, so it gets busy. Be prepared to wait for a table; but, it's worth the wait.

    I hadn't been to First Watch in a long time, so when my sister suggested it for our "last day of summer (before school starts for my nieces)" brunch, I was excited to see what I'd been missing. I really should come here more often.. they have a big breakfast/brunch/lunch menu, plus cocktails and mimosas, plus lots of veggie and gluten free options. We ordered way too much food, but here's what we had... Youngest niece, age 6: scrambled eggs, sausage, and a fruit cup. She loved the eggs, said the sausage tasted just like her favorite she eats at home, and enjoyed the strawberries, blueberries, and grapes. She shared her pineapple. Middle niece, age 8: kid's gluten free French toast and scrambled eggs. She said the eggs tasted like her moms but not dry, hahaha. She eats gluten free now and was happy to report that the gf bread is delicious and she especially likes the crust. The kid's French toast is 2 pieces and it's plenty of food. Eldest niece, age 11: Belgian waffle with berries and pure maple syrup, of course. It's big and fluffy and served with lots of butter and berries. 10 out of 10. My sister: a side of hash brown potatoes and the "Bacado," which is a zhuzhed up omelette with bacon, avocado, and cheese, served with a ton of fresh arugula. Yummm. Me: gluten free French toast and a side of bacon. Not much to say... the toast is sweet and buttery, the bacon is salty and crisp. Delicious! Our waitress was so kind and we were seated within 10 minutes despite the restaurant being completely packed. What a busy little spot. The service is on point and the food is good! The vibe is casual, light, and bright. I won't wait so long to come back next time.

    Me and my mom have always enjoyed first watch as one of go to brunch places. It can get packed on weekends but then again what brunch place isn't? Food is yummy and flavorful. Service is good and accommodating. Me and my mom love the farmhouse ambiance. We love their seasonal menus as well because some sound very yummy to us and we end up trying it. Even my dad has gotten a seasonal option one time. The most recent time me and my mom went with my grandma for brunch, first watch had their fall menu, and what really hooked me on trying one of their fall options was the really cool art from the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings that our waitress ironically did. Me and my mom love the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings so I thought it was awesome, creative, and clever. My mom tried their honey chipotle chicken hash which she enjoyed and I tried their pumpkin pancake breakfast. Very yummy and first watch always fills you up.

    THIS!!! Please keep the Parmesan Prosciutto Toast on the permanent menu!!! It's was so good!!

    Kale Tonic - a green drink which taste strong of cucumber is actually very good. I don't typically like green drinks but it was refreshing to me. Tangerine Dream - delicious. Not too sweet. Can taste the ginger and I love that. Belgian waffle: Delicious. Minimal syrup necessary Million Dollar Bacon: 10/10

    The people were nice and the food was great. It was my first time dining in, such a wonderful experience.

    Table broken and I ask sever, she said "yes, this table  then she leaved, bad service

    I and my husband love going to first watch and always order salad and waffles. Last week, the waffle was cold. Today, it's not hot. The sever said because we asked for crispy, the butter won't melt... The quality changed. It's usually a good restaurant. They made a new one, but the feeling is bad.

    My partner is starting his Warhammer journey, so we stopped by to check out the store and cafe. All…read moreI can say is "Wow!" I've walked by and never even noticed this place, but I encourage you to enter. The store offers players pieces to paint and play in house, other related material to review, and a historical review of Warhammer. War game setups to play, which, by the way, are artistically set up so awesomely! I would have taken more pictures and videos, but it was busy, and the majority of the game stations were taken up by players. I, on the other hand, enjoyed that they had a cafe as well. I believe their coffee machine is down or something. So I opted for their "Blood for the Blood God" tea it's not too sweet and pretty refreshing for a hot, humid day. We waited to eat our cinnamon roll at home. After heating it up a bit, I enjoyed the sweet treat. It was a tad bit dry, but it was eaten. If you're a fan or just walking by, stop and check it out. You may be surprised by a hobby you never knew could pique your interest!

    I came in with my 3 sons and a super friendly employee set them up to each paint a figurine and…read morekeep it for free. They then got to play with their new figurines on the very elaborate game tables (which I have seen very packed on weekends but which were mostly open on a Wednesday afternoon). I have no idea how the game works but the detailed figurines and buildings are very cool to look at and my kids loved exploring the tables. The cafe looks like a standard local coffee shop with a nice mix of coffees and pastries. Definitely a fun place to stop into and check out.
