    Lemon  pancakes
    Ngoc H.

    I went here after a short hike nearby. I knew they were closing soon, but was hoping that they could get us in. We were able to sit down, but I felt the meal was rushed. The potatoes came out cold and the staff you could tell that they were annoyed because it was almost closing time and they wanted to go home which I get. I still think, what I paid I should've gotten a quality meal. Ambiance was chill as always.

    Fall Harvest Hash
    Lori L.

    Haven't been in a very long time, and had a BOGO coupon, so decided to go again on our way out of the valley. It was nice and quiet, very good service, delicious food. I had the Fall Harvest Hash and my husband had the biscuits and gravy plate. Enough of mine for me to take home half of it for the next day. Wish they would get a location in the Prescott area, but glad to go anytime we are down the hill.

    We courageously decided to take our 1 & 2 year old out to breakfast this morning at First Watch and it was wildly successful in every way! My grandparents used to take my brother and I to first watch when we were kids and I have fond memories of hot chocolate and pancakes so it was a treat to take my own babies to do the same. When we got to the restaurant we were immediately greeted and asked to sit out on the patio that is lovely decorated and very spacious so we had plenty of room for our kiddos to spread out and eat without grabbing at each other or our food!! Once seated our waiter Anthony took our order and also brought the kids coloring pages and crayons to entertain them. He was very friendly and attentive throughout our meal. The menu boasts breakfast and lunch options for every tastebud and diet. As it is the new year and health is a top priority we went with chocolate chip pancakes, lemon ricotta pancakes, eggs and bacon of course...ok so we will get the egg white omelet next time. Anyway, we enjoyed some apple and orange juice along with coffee while we waited for our food and the patio was a pleasant place to do so. Our kids did beautifully being patient and coloring away and then our delicious and beautiful food arrived. It was the kids first time having chocolate chip pancakes and they loved every bite (so did I)! The eggs and bacon were cooked perfectly and it was all super yummy. The whole experience was lovely and filled our tummies for a day of fun. The inside of First Watch is very spacious and filled with booths to seat large parties as well as breakfast for two. Many breakfast spots have sticky tables due to the syrup intake but everywhere was clean and stick free. The cost of breakfast here is fairly pricey, but the food is good and it seems as though prices are up everywhere, so you'd be hard pressed to find a meal for less. We are trying to get out for breakfast more as a family and we thoroughly enjoyed First Watch today; we will be back soon and often!

    Very attentive happy server. Restaurant is clean and open. They have indoor and outdoor seating. From the outside might look small but it is spacious. They have great healthy selections. I had the traditional breakfast and watermelon juice from their seasonal menu. Food tasted great. Overall good experience. If you do come on a weekend there is more of a wait.

    Trifecta breakfast.

    First time here . Breakfast was amazing! Waitress was great . This place is bright and buzzing.

    Pesto Chicken Power Bowl
    Norm W.

    Enjoyed a business lunch at First Watch at this location. Enjoyed the Chicken Pesto Power Bowl. It was fresh filling and very tasty. The menu has many healthy choices. Service was great and will definitely be back when in the area.

    Strawberry tres leches French toast
    Matt Z.

    Great breakfast specials. The strawberry tres leches French toast was exceptionally good, with a side of million dollar bacon which is a breakfast staple. Bailey was our waitress and kindly topped off our coffee to go. Great service.

    Monica R.

    As a tourist, and I don't go many times in chains. , but my friend loves this place. And, they deserve to be busy all the time. Really good quality food, creative plates and drinks. I have never eaten a omelette with cod fish and salmon. It was wonderful. The ambiance is modern, cozy and you can have conversation naturally. If you stop in Phoenix, look which location is close to you for brunch.

I tried out their PB Nirvana, Angel Wings drink, and a fruit acai bowl. First off, the presentation of their food is simply immaculate. The PB Nirvana is one big toasted bread which is covered completely with peanut butter and banana slices alongside coconut shreds. Although the acai bowl was smaller than other places, it was arranged so neatly and the quality of the fruit was sublime. The Angel Wings was sufficiently warm and wonderfully sweet. I liked all the things I ate and would recommend this place for anyone looking for quality food and drinks. All of this cost around $30.

A mango sticky rice matcha in hand with a good book and suddenly the Arizona desert heat feels a little less intense. The drink is unforgettable-lush mango, earthy matcha, and a sweetness that never overwhelms. It tastes like a summer afternoon in paradise. I also have ordered the blueberry matcha and it was superb. What I appreciate most is the kindness hidden in the menu. Coconut milk, oat milk, dairy-free options, gluten-free bread, syrups for every mood--it never feels like you're asking for a substitute. It feels like you're being welcomed. Every menu choice seems to whisper, "You belong here too." The avocado toast was extraordinary.

It feels fresh, welcoming, and thoughtfully put together. We tried the strawberry lemonade, and it was ultra fresh... honestly reminded me of the handmade lemonade we used to squeeze at home when I was a kid. Sweet, refreshing, and full of real flavor without tasting artificial. The iced passion tea with raspberry was perfectly mixed... not too sweet, not watered down, just the right blend of flavors and refreshing. You can tell they care about quality here. They use organic, high quality ingredients, and the taste really says it all. I also noticed they have food, smoothies, pastries, and grab and go drinks, and now I'm determined to come back and try more. Between the atmosphere, the friendly setup, and how good the drinks were, this is definitely a place I'll be back to probably to work my way through the whole menu! Seating outside is really great too, there are tons of plants around, it seriously feels like you're chillin in a real life plant nursery. It's so green I had to remind myself I was still in AZ.

I tried their Vietnamese coffee with the sea salt cold foam and I added brown sugar syrup to make it sweeter ( I like my coffee on the sweet side ) this was delicious! Loved it! You definitely taste the coffee but in a good way, if you love the taste of strong coffee you'll love this. When I first came here it was around 4PM and lots of their bakery items were sold out and they were done baking for the day since they close at 6PM. So my advice is to come when they open or around noon time to get more of a selection on bakery items. I went again the next day at noon and was able to score more bakery items to try! They were not as empty as it was my first time stopping by! Woohoo! I was able to get the Jalapeño cream cheese and wow yummy!! This one sells out quickly. I also got the salted butter bread and they seem to have this one more often but it also can sell out, it's also pretty good. I was able to get my hands on the choco bun and this has like a gooey chocolate fudge inside and it's almost like a molten lava cake!! I loved it honestly. I warmed mine up in the microwave when I got home for about 5-10 seconds and it was delicious. I got the sugared cream cheese brioche and this was also pretty darn good, this seems to sell out quickly! The Garlic cheese bread is so sooo good too! My son and hubby love this one. The chocolate hazelnut muffin is delicious as well! So many goodies here!! I LOVE their Thai Tea! I get this every time I come here. Their boba is freaking good too. Great flavors!
