First watch is nice go-to brunch spot with the usual breakfast selection. What sets them apart from the standard brunch restaurants are the seasonal menu selections which include unique options such as the Tres Leches French Toast and the Lemon Blueberry Corn Bread. We always appreciate the complimentary coffee and the nice customer service. Interior is cozy and has a nice rustic aesthetic with a modern twist to it. This is a good spot to come and catch up with friends and family while enjoying stable breakfast options. read more

First Watch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hershey, Pennsylvania

One of the only restaurants in the area open early on a week day, which I was very thankful for after a long flight. It was also pretty close to my hotel which was an added bonus. I've been to First Watch in my hometown before, so it's great to see that the service is just as exceptional when you travel between locations. I was greeted immediately. After I was set my server super friendly continuously checked to see how I was doing and if I needed anything. The food wasn't as great as I'm used to though. I got their summer special Shrimp and Grits and the Watermelon Wake Up juice. The bread was a little hard for my liking, the grits were a little overcooked, and my drink tasted a little watered down. Everything was still good, but it wasn't great. read more

Enjoyed the Double Bacon Parmesan Hash. Meal was $14.49 and very good. The bacon, egg, and Parmesan sauce put a different spin on the dish. Waitress was very attentive. It was not as crowded on Monday as it during the weekend. So I did not have to wait long to be seated. Atmosphere was pleasant. read more

We came here during peak lunch time and were honestly impressed with how fast everything came out. The service was very quick, which we appreciated, and our waitress was kind and friendly. That said, she could've been a little more attentive as we weren't really offered refills or checked on much after the food arrived. As for the food, it was overall decent with a few hits and misses. The Eggs Benedict was good, but the hollandaise sauce was a little overpowering and kind of took over the whole dish. The original breakfast plate was solid and very basic but you really can't mess that up, however, the eggs were way too runny. Some of the breakfast potatoes were also overcooked and a little too crispy. The egg white omelet was good and light, though it felt a bit skimpy on the filling. The side of fruit was very small, which was slightly disappointing. On the bright side, the grits were delicious and definitely a standout. The loaded potatoes were probably the best thing we ordered !!! We'd give those an 8/10. The cheese sauce, potatoes, and bacon were all really good. The maple bacon had great flavor, but it could be a little overpowering at times. Overall, we'd rate everything a solid 7. Not bad, not amazing, but a solid option if you're looking for a quick brunch spot with friendly service. read more

We're always lucky that wherever we seem to go, a First Watch is not too far behind! Today we had lunch at the First Watch in Hershey, PA - and enjoyed just as much as the other locations! We got a variety of meals including omelets, pancakes, and sandwiches - and as always the service was quick and friendly, and the portions were large and tasty enough to fill us up! Another great meal at a First Watch! read more

Diners come here, dazzled by beautifully plated meals, never noticing the dirty dining ware that accompanies them. Unfortunately, I did. My fork was visibly grimy, with streaks and residue that made me question the hygiene behind the scenes. If this is what's served to customers, what's happening in the kitchen? The food industry needs to change. Cleanliness should never be an afterthought. A restaurant can serve the most exquisite dishes, but if it can't provide clean utensils, it has already failed. read more

We came here to have brunch with my sister, her 2 kids and my mom. There is always a wait here. We got here at 10 and got a table around 10:20. Plan to having enough time wait for a table. The food is good, it feels healthy. There are alot of different options on the menu, you can really tailor your order for what you want. I also tried the fresh pressed juice, I had the Blue Booster, it was really good. read more

Enjoyed breakfast here each morning while visiting Hershey. The staff were excellent each time and the food was very good. The menu offered farm fresh and healthy choices. Our waitress was also very knowledgeable, as she understood my wife's questions concerning diet and ingredients. Excellent place for breakfast. read more

Another great Hershey brunch spot. It was packed from the start which let us know we had a good choice on our hands. The crowd was very young, which made me feel old but also like the food would be really good. I got the honey Chipotle chicken hash which was really good, especially the potatoes which were fluffy and flavorful. I also got the honey caramel crunch iced coffee which was really good too. read more

Traveling presents the travelers with many food choices. Having enjoyed First Watch in Florida, we tried it closer to home. Good choice. Food was excellent. Oatmeal breakfast to the fancy salad. Tasty! No wait time though lunchtime in Hershey. We were delighted. Our waitress was great. Suggestions were right on and helpful. Usually these cavernous buildings are noisy. Notice the ceiling baffles of doors and window sashes. Really helped with sound. read more

Went here with my boyfriend for the weekend after watching the Kendrick Lamar concert the following morning. It was a beautiful experience and we both had a great time. From the coffee that got offered to us to the quick service. I ordered the chiquita burrito with a side of greens, along with a side of their tomato soup. Both were delicious the soup had great flavor and the burrito has nice spice. I ordered the purple haze juice and we loved it! Not pictured is the works omelette with no mushrooms my bf said it was good as well. Will recommend to anyone going to the area and lovely wait staff! read more

For being a large chain restaurant, they do a good job in keeping the menu local. The coffee is tasty, the food is delicious, and the space is inviting. I enjoy coming here and like trying their different menu items. PRO TIP: Ask for a to go coffee cup and you'll be able to fill it at the table. read more

No other word for this breakfast than OUTSTANDING. we had a party of seven, and while the wait was long to get a table, the service and the food could not have been better. Everyone in our group found exactly what they wanted and everyone cleared their plates it was so good. Unique flavors that you won't find at a local diner or a big name chain restaurant. Hoping we can find one closer to our home! read more

First Watch - Chili and chorizo omelet with million dollar bacon. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hershey, Pennsylvania

Food looked tasty but tasted pre-packaged. Onions and salmon in my frittata were tough. Loved the idea of greens with my breakfast but they were very bitter. Nothing seemed as though it was seasoned. Seating at 9 am on a Friday morning took a while. Lots of empty tables but quite a bit of confusion at the host stand. Our server was polite but not what I would call friendly. Forgot a side of bacon but no apology was offered. Coffee was weak. $52 for 2 breakfasts, a side of bacon, coffee and tip. Yikes. It was super loud in there and, on a 70 degree morning could have had less a/c as our food was instantly cold. read more

As I entered the location I was greeted by the host who was willing to take me to my seat. I opted for a to go and she quickly put in my order to minimize my wait time. The location was very clean and busy but not too crowded. The noise level was to be expected but the staff was very welcoming. I ordered the avocado toast with scrambled eggs, bacon cheddar cornbread and a watermelon mint drink. Everything I had was tasty! I'd recommend giving first watch a try! read more

First time trying First Watch! We were visiting Hershey this past week. Oh we loved it! The Floridian French toast is beautiful. I forgot to take pics but trust me that dish and the eggs Benedict were amazing! We also tried the purple haze and another juice with tangerine and coconut milk (can't recall the name) and added a vitamin boost. They are the best!! The place is super busy but our waitress was great. You have to try First watch!! read more

I typically go to the Timonium location of this restaurant, but was in the area so decided to give this one a try. Very similar to other locations. Food is always delicious and fresh. My only complaint is that I was pretty sure the Cobb salad came with some avocado, and I didn't get any! read more

Utterly fantastic! This place was impressive from the moment I walked in the door. The atmosphere was buzzing with friendly conversations at each table, the clink of dishes and silverware, and the excitement of a busy kitchen and waitstaff. Our host greeted us warmly and sat us at our table. We were promptly asked about our drink orders. After those were delivered, we ordered. I ordered the Traditional Breakfast - 2 cage free eggs over medium, hickory-smoked bacon, seasoned potatoes and I subbed for the Udi's GF bread. The preserves were incredible. My coworker and I also shared the pumpkin donut holes which were also delicious. The food was great but the friendly atmosphere, warm, open, bright dining area put it over the top. I'll definitely be going here again and I look forward to a location opening near me! read more

Service was excellent, i thought i ordered a multigrain pancake but i guess i did not. I ordered ham with my eggs and the first bite of the hame was all gristle. The server asked me if she could replace it after she realized i was having trouble chewing the ham. I said i should be ok as it was one bite. I cut another bite out of the middle and it was same gristle. The server called the manager over and she said there would be no charge for the breakfast. I have been to many First Watch restaurants and never experienced the ham like this. I'll be back for a second chance. read more

Fantastic brunch! I don't know what brand of gluten free bread they use but it's delicious. My gf turned lived the green juice and their bennys. I had some kind of potatos bowl with poached eggs on top. The eggs were perfectly poched which doesn't happen at a lot of places. This is my second visit and it was just as good as my first location. I'll be back. Hoping one opens near me in Langhorne or Newton. read more

Made reservations-yes! I highly recommend it. Greeted friendly by staff. Atmosphere: decor is nice, comfy and quaint. Food: delicious million dollar bacon very flavorful- not really spicy so don't over think it. My pops said, it was the best French toast he ever had. I enjoyed my blueberry pancakes but nothing extraordinary. Drink: Coffee was hot and perfect flavor. We got a carafe on the table so we poured to keep coffee hot. Overall, excellence place for breakfast! Waitress was wonderful too. read more

I don't know if it was the weekend we were down in Hershey or it's just normal but most of the spots we went to eat, the staff were not friendly. We have been to the one close to home in Jersey and it's so much better. It nice, clean and roomy. Kids shared French toast and pancakes which we got a thumbs up. I had the Elevated Egg Sandwich - Bacon, an over-easy cage-free egg, Gruyere cheese, fresh smashed avocado, mayo and lemon-dressed arugula on a brioche bun with a side of fresh, seasoned potatoes (which were way too salty and could not eat). The wife had the Farmhouse Hash - Two cage-free eggs any style atop fresh, seasoned potatoes, bacon, avocado, house-roasted onions and tomatoes, Cheddar and Monterey Jack. Served with our whole grain artisan toast. She enjoyed it. Ordered two sides of sausage which the kids loved (as well as I). Their coffee could use some help...average at best. Prices are moderate. Parking on street or deck in back. They serve alcohol too... read more

Came here for Sunday brunch because I had been eyeing the place for some time now. Food: the menu is extensive and it took quite some time to figure out what I wanted. I suggest maybe come in knowing what you might was to eat. i ordered the beet juice and smoked salmon and roasted veggies frittata. The juice was okay, pretty color but tasted like bottled juice not the fresh squeezed juice I was expecting (i drank it before I could take a picture). The eggs and potatoes were just okay. The eggs had good flavor and was something different I've never had before but we're pretty thin. Not as hearty or as much veggies as i was expecting, there was one long red pepper that went across it. The potatoes were just okay. Best thing on my plate was the bread (very soft and fresh) with butter. Price: i felt it was decently priced only because it had salmon in it and fish dishes are usually a bit on the pricy side. But still felt like it was on the pricy side for eggs and some potatoes. Also, it was a bit annoying that menus do not show prices for food items. Ambiance: place is large and has a friendly feel due to the bench style seating decor throughout. It is very personalized. Menus are on QR codes which makes for a safe eating environment. People were seated 6 feet apart. Service: our server was friendly and attentive. Check in on us more than once. Even as they were closing she was not trying to rush out out. read more

Huevos Rancheros Tostadas, WOW ! This may have been one of the best breakfast I have ever had anywhere. The salsa verde and chorizo took this dish over the top.I was really impressed with the menu , it was difficult to choose just one. I honestly thought this was a one location restaurant with a amazing owner that was super passionate about breakfast. I was surprised that it was a franchise with over 300 locations. I also tried the carrot cake pancakes, they were amazing. One if the nice things , not sure I have ever seen before , the glass syrup bottle was warm. The lunch menu looked pretty basic and not as interesting as the breakfast menu but I'll bet it's fantastic too. I love this place and hope that one opens near me.If you be are in the Hershey area definitely make this one of your stops ! read more

I am so confused by some of the reviews left here. My family ate here today, after a few days in Hershey. The cafe is beautiful, the service was very help and friendly. Waitstaff made suggestions as to their favorite menu items. We started with the salted caramel donut holes off the special fall menu. My son loved his Mint Mocha coffee. Everything was delicious. Best breakfast spot in Hershey!! read more

As always First Watch never disappoints. The barbacoa quesadilla benedict was spot on! It is topped with poached cage-free eggs and covered with Vera Cruz hollandaise, ranchero sauce and scallions.
