Today was my first time at First Watch. I was interested in some healthy options, so I asked my server, Mary, for some recommendations. Mary explained all of the health choices on the menu and also mentioned I try one of the fresh juices you provide. With a little help, I decided on the avocado toast and the kale juice- I'm so glad I did! Delicious! Great food and great and helpful service! Thank you to my server Mary for making my first experience so delightful! I will be back for sure! read more

Great place, came here with my gf and at the time they only had one chef working, kind of busy but the food came out amazing I hade the elote hash read more

I'd love to be able to comment on the food, but I went in & sat at the table for five minutes before I realized that no one was interested in even greeting me much less getting me a cup of coffee. It's not like you're that busy. Tremendous disappointment, considering that this was my first time in any First Watch ever. Now I'll be sure to never step into any of them ever again. I get far better treatment at Waffle House, even if the food is crap. read more

They have great food, but there are a lot of open tables and people waiting 20 mins or more. Doesn't seem very organized.

I was very excited to find a breakfast place near my new home. The menu sounded fantastic. But after a 30 minute wait for breakfast. The taste and quality of the food was terrible. I felt like we were totally invisible to our server. We had hoped to make this our new stop on Saturday morning bike rides, we'll keep looking for a great breakfast spot. read more

Overall pretty good breakfast. Ive had the french toast and its a little dry. Orange juice was good. Friendly waiters.

I think the food would have been pretty good if it wasn't served cold. The decor and atmosphere was nice and clean and modern. But in the end, it all comes down to the food. And the food was just OK read more

First Watch is a health food restaurant. So if you are eating healthy looking for smaller portion sizes and organic foods this is a great restaurant for you. If you're looking for homemade fresh breads, Bakery, buttermilk pancakes and large breakfast portions this is not the restaurant for you. The staff was pretty friendly the wait was about 25 minutes. Food was good but not what I expected. read more

Stopped in for breakfast with my husband today as we were out and about enjoying our kids being back in school. YAY!! We were seated promptly and our server, Mary was very attentive and made some great suggestions. She told us her favorite were the carrot pancakes --which OMG yum (loved them) and my husband had the chikichanga....he loved his meal as well. We had coffee and I noticed some specialty drinks listed and asked Mary about them and she mentioned that the Kale Tonic was her fave. We decided to give that a try too. Yum! We will definitely be back... read more

Wow, very impressed with the quality and portion with the pricing. I always worry when restaurants do not post their prices online and breakfast places can be super expensive, but this place was very very good. Kids Menu-for $6 after tax my son got the chocolate chip pancake. It's huge! And it comes with 2 bacon. Wife got the French toast. It's huge and delicious! I got the Bacado. No upgrade price for egg whites, tons of avocado and bacon in the omelet. I repeat a lot of avocado. My guess is probably half an avocado in the omelet, plus toast and seasoned potatoes, only $11. Same pricing for an omelet at ihop or Denny's give or take a buck or two. Our waitress Lauren was really good too. Keep up the good work! This is my new breakfast place! Only negative was price for coffee. Make sure you drink 2-3 cups to get your money's worth, it was about $3 after tax. read more

We will not be back to this place again. The employees were very friendly which is very important. But the food was seriously not good at all. It was cold when they brought it to the table as well. I am not sure how anyone could make a worse pancake and they are hard to mess up. It was thin, dry and crumbling. Truly I could think of quite a few places to go for breakfast that would have been much better. No one at our table really enjoyed their food. We are also quite certain that they forgot about us because it took 30 minutes after ordering for them to bring the food. read more

Wow! We found our new favorite place for breakfast/lunch! So great to have this place in our neighborhood. Friendly and attentive staff, unique menu, super fresh selections. Dylan was amazing as our server. Our beverages filled frequently, he knew the menu and made great recommendations. read more

I love trying new restaurants and a friend suggested First Watch for lunch. I had the Roast Beef & Havarti sandwich and the Honey Pecan Salad - fresh, flavorful and satisfying! Love that they serve breakfast all day...I'll definitely go back to try that! Service was friendly. Great patio to enjoy the nice weather this time of year. read more

We had an hour to have breakfast. We had to wait 20 minutes for a table because nobody was bussing dirty tables which there were at least 8. The food was good but we had to get coffee creamers from another table because the server was nowhere to be found..therefore coffee refills did not happen either. The server brought the bill and we asked for a to go box for our leftover food and asked if we could have a coffee to go... the server said she would be right back... but we never saw her again. Needless to say... her tip was ZERO! We will never go back to this restaurant. I was thinking about scheduling a breakfast meeting with my company there for about 25 people. After this experience... I changed my mind. I reserved tables for this meeting at Biscuits Café instead. read more

I loved the food, the service, and the general feeling the restaurant gave me, but my cat just scratched my arm and I am bleeding a river, so I'm in a bad mood. The Eggs Benedict is my favorite Would've given six stars if I could've read more

First time at this location and wasn't disappointed! The waitress was AMAZING! Sensitive to allergy needs and incredibly helpful. She was a doll! The food did not disappoint. My veggie omelet was YUM! The salad and toast perfect accompaniments. Even the coffee was hot and delicious. I had to wait for a fresh pot to brew, but the wait was well worth it. The only negative? The hostess seemed to have attitude. We asked to sit outside and from her reaction, that was clearly not where she wanted us. We blew it off but the moment was noted...and unnecessary. read more

Home of the million dollar bacon! Delicious breakfast food and energizing healthy juices to start your morning right. I know it's AZ but their tomato basil soup is fantastic as well. Always good service! read more

Fantastic food and awesome service. I can't wait to eat there again. And again and again.

Enjoyed breakfast with a friend. I was allowed to be seated even though my friend took a little while to arrive. I was given a pitcher of coffee just in case my friend wanted some. We've tried different menu items each time and loved each one! They allowed us to stay and talk as long as we needed to. Love this place! :-) read more

The food is always great along with the service. Today however was exceptional. Ordered biscuits and gravy and they were a little off. Our server GARY went above and beyond. Brought a new side out and also credited the bill. It was not necessary. Gary also cooks at this location. We so much appreciate such great, friendly and conscientious service. You would think Gary owns the location! He obviously takes great pride in his work. Well done First Watch. You have exception staff in Gary! read more

Seated quick, greeted quick, food served quick, attentive service.... Menu is fresh and fun. Three stars are for lack of integrity to brand concept. I ordered a fresh kale juice and waitress comes back from kitchen saying they are out and proceeded to say that they make 3 glasses a day and when they are gone they are gone. When a restaurant serves a large number of people every day their should be a certain percentage of those items available. Further, one can juice and it will keep incredibly fresh for a week!! Educate yourselves folks. It's either fresh and juiced per glass or at the least do up a big batch. Serve your customers. Also, Greens that came with omelet were mostly wilted, clearly not fresh and absolutely lacked flavor. I asked for green chilies and jalapeños added to breakfast and they were there but had to really search. Lastly, individual packaged creamers may be more cost effective but lack the freshness and if First Watch did a little research they would find these items are not fresh at all. I will be back but hope I can see some improvement. read more

First Watch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

I enjoy the food at First Watch. And the atmosphere is great too, at the park central location.

I'd give five stars if First Watch would have a gluten free option for bread. Gluten free for Pancakes and Crepes would be nice too! Gluten free can actually taste better than wheat when done right. (Elevate Coffee down the street offers great gluten free crepes.) How I'd LOVE to order the Smoked Salmon & Cucumber toast! Instead, I had the Smoked Salmon Frittata. PLEASE GIVE US A GLUTEN FREE BREAD OPTION!!! And JOHNNY is a great waiter! He knows the menu choices so well! JOHNNY GETS FIVE STARS. read more

I would definitely go back I enjoyed their food and service. My family and I enjoy the food every time. Highly recommend this place try it out. read more

Every time I go here I am always satisfied with not only the service but also the food. The portions are the perfect size and super good. I usually switch it up with what I order every time and I can say the pancakes, waffles, million dollar bacon, and BLT with a poached egg are definitely good. They have a pretty big patio which is a plus. Way better than your average Denny's or iHOP. read more

I'm giving two stars because the food was pretty good. Biscuits and gravy, the bacon and sausage were really good. The service sucked. I can deal with a 40 minute wait, because usually that means the food AND service are above par. So we order we get our food no problem, were waiting for our food and my husband had some coffee, so I have a cup since the pitcher is on the table. I have ZERO problem paying for my cup of coffee. What I do have a problem with, is my food gets dropped at the table, I sit there for five minutes because I have no silver ware, finally stop a random sever because well I need silverware, my husband needed hot sauce so we stop another server again and get him hot sauce no biggie, finally got our server after we finished our meal and asked for additional coffee and creamer since our dish was clearly EMPTY. They were moderately busy so I get there's going to be some slip ups and that's fine with me. What I do have an issue with is , my server noticed I was drinking coffee, went in and added it to my check (again not an issue paying for the coffee), yet failed to notice I had no silver ware for 5 minutes, had to be asked twice for creamer , and never once asked if we needed anything or if the food was to our liking. She did however clear our table when we were done and drop our check. Had we been rude at all I could understand but honestly until I got the check and saw that she noticed that but basically hadn't noticed anything important like the fact I sat there while my husband and son were eating really irked me. She's lucky she even got a $2.00 tip, because I tip 20-25%. So maybe the management should do actual sections for their servers instead of having them inside and outside that way after a 40 minute wait you can get decent service. If you'd like to know which of your servers needs training I'd be happy to let you know. read more

This is a very nice neighborhood restaurant with a unique menu. I had the biscuits and gravy and it was really good. The service was quick and I will totally go here again. read more

20 minutes to seat, outside very limited water misters that dont cover the patio,15 minutes for water, 20 minutes for food. Server didn't want to work and it showed. Other servers came around but ours stayed inside. One server came out to the middle of the patio and asked who had what as she didn't know what food went with what tables...sorry , this place isn't The Good Egg .. We will stick with US Egg and few miles down the road. read more

Love coming here for breakfast. Service is great. Johnny was my server today and he was quick, took my order right away, food was out quick, tasted really good and I was on my way. Thanks. read more

Its been along time since I've walked out of a restaurant. Walked in and no one was up front so stood there for at least three minutes before we were seated. Then sat at our table with no acknowledgement for another 10 minutes. When you see servers walk out and see you still have menus and no beverages but still ignore you, it is time to take your business somewhere else. Now we are at IHOP!!!! read more

It's nice to have a breakfast place around this area. The ambiance of First Watch is nice, very homey and welcoming. Service can be really 50/50; sometimes it's perfectly fine, and other times it's pretty bad. The food is pretty typical, nothing "above and beyond", but it's not bad food I would say, just more so average. The food does tend to come out quickly, so if you're short on time, this is a good choice. read more

this just became my fav breakfast spot in this side of town. Food very fresh, plenty of healthy choices and the service so spot on!! amazing for a chain restaurant. read more

Great local eatery with a plethora of breakfast and brunch options. The restaurant is clean and the staff is extremely helpful. A big shout out to the server Ian for truly making my brunch a memorable experience. I will definitely be returning time and time again. read more

Food was great and loved the atmosphere. My family members loved the "Morning Meditation" juice. Experience was tainted by a bad waitress experience. She must have drank a coffee with an extra shot of grumpiness. read more

Fast friendly service with great food. Beautiful atmosphere with enough space to relax and enjoy your meal. Really nice patio and waiting area available to use as well. read more

Yum!!!!! Great menu. I had the butternut squash and mushroom frittata and my BF had the pumpkin spice pancake special with eggs and sausage. A perfect pairing of Fall ingredients read more

New location is awesome. Went for breakfast and all was clean, spacious and open. Food was delicious and service was good. Booths are big and have lots of space. They made an error on the bill but fixed it with no hassle. I had chorizo omelet and it was delicious. Will definitely return. read more

You have to try the Lemon Blueberry Quinoa Pancakes! Seriously this is the best breakfast I have had for a very long time. Our server, Joanne was incredibly attentive and happy. Great food, super service and love the new urban decor read more

I don't recommend the Happy Valley location. Horrible management!! Been here 4 times and it gets worse and worse. The "host" does double duty seating people and playing cashier. Ridiculous line outside (and to pay your bill). Every time my family has been here there have been 1-3 open tables with no one sitting at them yet it takes 5-10 to fill them. This past time was the final straw. I sat inside in the seating area waiting to be seated and 2 tables were empty for 15 mins with 10+ people waiting. 15 minutes?!?! Zero empathy from the "host" who was way too busy running from hosting and playing cashier. The layout is also ridiculous. They have a community table upfront that no one ever sits at because it's wayyy too awkward. This isn't New York or a coffee shop, it's a restaurant. Every time I've been here there are like 3 people sitting at that community table with their backpacks/purses in the opposite chairs. Umm maybe convert that to tables for the many people waiting?! Just a thought. They also have an isle right the middle of the place big enough to land a jumbo jet. Ummm, maybe put some small tables there too?! I live in the community right there and its joke now between many of us how we should just go and see how horribly mismanaged this place is. Go elsewhere, the food isn't any better than iHop or Denny's and definitely not worth the long wait. read more

Terrible service. Soon as my family and I walked in there was a strong sewage odor we asked to be seated outside away from it and the hostess was all flustered saying she just sat a table outside we would have to wait so they don't get overwhelmed. We waited. Once we were seated our waitress came right over and asked if we were ready to order before we even had a chance to look at the menu or order drinks we said we needed a moment. She came back 10 minutes later and we finally ordered. She brought my son a silly cup and husband a soda and only one straw. My husband used the straw for his soda when she came back he asked if we could get a straw for the silly cup she snapped at him and said ughhh you took his straw for the kids cups. We were in shock by her attitude and just stared in disbelief and she stormed off. My bacon was over cooked or old bacon that was reheated from prior. She continued to be rude and would disappear for 10 plus minutes at a time. Needless to say we will not be back. Terrible food terrible service read more
