Cute little breakfast spot. I really enjoy the ambiance first off. It reminds my sitting in someone's house having breakfast. I love the fact that they offer cocktails and specialty beverages not just the typical mimosas. They have alcoholic beverages that pair well with the breakfast menu. We preserved a few beverages, French toast and some type of breakfast sandwich. The bacon they serve is amazing!! It is called million dollar bacon I believe. It's sweet and spicy and cooked just right. I would go back just for the bacon alone. My husband liked the French toast, lol. I never mastered cooing French toast so when he wants it, we come here. This place is very family friendly and they were very kind to us. read more

Awesome brunch spot. Such a nice atmosphere from the moment you walk in. Good lighting and friendly staff. The food is very good and filling. The traditional breakfast and avocado toast make a perfect combo to make up for a night of drinking. read more

Came here around 7am on a Friday morning and we were seated immediately. On our way to our table we saw a server lick her fingers then pick up silverware and place them on a table. Was a little surprised but okay, we all do some absent-minded thing sometimes so not such a huge deal. The food was pretty good. I ordered the chocolate chip pancake breakfast. The pancake had a good flavor without being overly sweet. I ordered it with scrambled eggs that we're cooked very well and bacon that was not super greasy. Our server started out attentive but not very friendly. She dropped the check before we were half way done with our meals then we didn't see her again until we were getting up to leave. I went to the restroom and found it surprisingly dirty for only being open an hour or so. The rest of the restaurant seemed very clean so that was a little unexpected. I've been to other locations that were great and I would love to give this location 4 stars because they have a great menu and atmosphere but the staff could use a little more training. I don't like to go places where I feel I am an inconvenience to wait on. read more

First Watch - Chocolate chip pancake breakfast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

Yummy yummy, although it may seem from the looks of their menu, a very ordinary kind of joint, it isn't. What's unique to this place is not their variety but their food quality. My eggs my Belgian waffle and my bacon were very on point. I forget what it's called but it's on the menu in the upper right corner, the only consolation I would add would be to add the potatoes. I want to go back and enjoy my favorite meal on the weekends, brunch. Downsides to this place are: the wait and the wait and the wait. So be prepared to wait a little and get more hungry towards the end of the wait. Cheers to crispy bacon and good quality read more

I had seen a few First Watch locations pop up all around the city, and I decided to find out what they were all about. Boy oh boy, I was not disappointed. Came here with my brother on a Saturday morning and left very happy. Now, given that we live in the age of the pandemic, cleanliness, masks, and social distancing are always a must! First Watch accomplished all these check marks, and they offer service with a smile, (even though you can't see the smile under the mask). From the moment we walked in, I was very happy with the friendly greetings that we got. We were seated quickly, and offered a pot of coffee by an amazing waitress who was so attentive and provided phenomenal customer service! My brother had a BLTE sandwich, while I had Smoked Salmon and Roasted Vegetable Frittata. Food didn't take that long to get to us, and it was very yummy. I would recommend the Frittata's to anyone, they are a great way to get the morning started! This place reminded me of a nicer Denny's, you know, a diner without all the typical dirtiness that you would find at other places. Food was great, place was clean, and not to mention affordable! Our entire meal was about $20 bucks! Our waitress, even offered us to-go cups for our coffee. WOW! Check them out whenever you are looking for a quick and satisfying bite. read more

Tried to eat there today and they would not serves us and asked us to leave because my companion, did not have a mask, following the State Order, what is wrong with people. We follow the law. First Watch you lost a faithful patron today. read more

For being in the memorial area, the prices are very reasonable. All of their food is delicious, service is always good. Their healthier choices are just as wonderful which is rare. I always make my own avocado toast so I wasn't expecting to love it but I did! read more

When I used to live in Kansas City, I would frequent First Watch so often that I gained five pounds in one year. When I saw they were coming to Houston I was ecstatic!!! We had to wait a while and it was outside but the food was better then I remember and everything was fresh and really delicious. It is so nice to have a good chain breakfast place! read more

Food was amazing service sucked. It wasn't that busy our waitress would get lost. Hopefully she didn't go missing read more

HORRIBLE SERVICE & HORRIBLE FOOD! We waited over an hour for our food, and then realized it had been brought to the table next to ours. The waitress set our food down on their table, let the other costumers touch the plates before realizing it WASN'T theirs, then BROUGHT IT TO US immediately after! We kindly asked for it to be remade since it was both cold and touched by other costumers. They agreed, took it back, and then brought out the WRONG FOOD AGAIN a half hour later. Absolutely unbelievable!!! read more

My co-workers and I ate at this place the other day and OMG, the breakfast is delicious. I had the "Chickichanga", it was mouth watering, very good. I also had their so called million dollar bacon, oh my .... very delicious! It has a little sweet taste to them. Food was soo delicious we have ate here twice in the last two weeks. They do close at 2 or 3pm though, so get there with plenty of time, they are usually full as well. read more

Waitress seemed like she wanted to be done working when my girlfriend and I arrived 90 minutes before closing. Waited 30 minutes for a juice before deciding to just leave. I usually like the chain and food, but this was a bad experience at this location. read more

Enjoyed food and service. Great location and kid's friendly. Just needs military discount to be perfect!

Terrible service! Do not go here. They will take forever to take your order and never check up on you. I had to ask someone who wasn't our server to take our order and he was rude and super fake towards us. There was maybe 5 people in the restaurant and twice as many servers yet they never checked on us. Don't waste your time. read more

Terrible customer service and management. We had a BOGO for a free entree from the birthday email; however, when we went to check out, the manager stated that the BOGO was only for "non-special" items that were not rotational/seasonal. I asked him where on the coupon that information was stated and he could not provide that information, yet would still not accept the coupon. I can understand if we misread the fine print - that would be on us, but denying a coupon based on no fine print and only "store policy" is disgusting. The food was actually very good, as it normally is with this chain, but we will never be coming back to any First Watch because of this. They won the battle but lost the war - why is it so difficult to honor coupons that are administered by the store itself?? read more

If you have not visited this restaurant, you are depriving yourself. The food is excellent, and the staff could not be better. The Manager took time to converse with my wife and me. Expect it to be busy because this place is that good. read more

The food is normal. Don't expect to be wowed. If the wait if anything over 10/15 min I wouldn't bother. The really disappointing factor here is the coffee. It's literally just hot water. Even after they where kind enough to give us a fresh pot. read more

I've eaten at this location twice. On both occasions, service was super slow. Servers were not attentive and even after patiently waiting FOREVER for food, it was brought out like warm. Geesh, if I have to wait an hour after placing my order, my food should at least be hot when it's FINALLY served! Also, the bacon should be served with a little crisp. Why serve flimsy, barely cooked bacon. Finally, the hosts weren't great either. One gentleman, Daniel maybe, made comments that I found rude. THere was a younger host that was more argumentative than necessary about margerine. Anyway, I don't think I'll return to this location. Thoroughly disappointed. read more

This was my first time going to this restaurant and I was driving and decided to call ahead and pick up my food. I order grits and eggs and ooohhh my my..... them grits was the bomb. You have to try them grits. We'll prepared. Like home made. You'll thank me later. read more

Went for the first time.... Wasn't impressed at all. The food was just OK( on a scale of 1-10, I would give about a 5( only because the waitress brought me back a hot pot of decaf coffee-the 1st one was just warm) I ordered the pumpkin spice pancake w/ eggs ( was supposed to be 2, but looked liked 1) and a chicken patty most places when you order pancakes you get 2. When I checked out I asked if you hey offered senior discount or even military ( I'm not military... but asked anyway, the cashier said NO to both. I WON'T BE COMING BACK... I don't mind paying for food if it's worth it or even good, but wasn't worth the $15( and some change + tip). The plate was large enough to hold another item( hash browns, small bowl of grits or seasoned potatoes ( which they ran out of) Yew I could have gotten up to leave or put up a fight of not paying for the meal because I didn't Think it was worth it ..... but lesson learned and NO RETURNS!!! read more

My wife and I dropped by the First Watch location on the Katy Freeway for Sunday brunch, maltipoo in tow. The service we got was very good. So was the food. The only negatives that I could think of is that the portions could have been a little bigger, and the outdoor dining setup seems to have been an afterthought. read more

Usually enjoy a meal here and stop in, even though its far from home. Ordered a basic breakfast. Meal was completely average, evidencing a lack of attention to detail for a breakfast place. Eggs overdone (served cold) toast underdone. Potatoes flavorless. Skimpy portions, premium price. Mentioned it to my server and to the manager when checking out. Nothing other than tepid apology. 25 bucks wasted. Won't return. read more

Wished there was negative stars. Not even worth one star. Kinda ticked...Brother-in-law pulled the oldest sibling card and said we are going to First Watch....over Liberty Kitchen. First Watch sucked so bad and I would not recommend it. Slow service, poor quality food, colored water called coffee, saw the waitstaff twice, no check on by management after being asked to swing by. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT!! read more

Great breakfast, great customer service. Food is well seasoned, customer service was amazing and there are plenty of options on the menu.

Was impressed it was a great experience overall. It was just a bit noisy and cramped with tables so close together.

Best food ever, I come here all the time and recommend it to anyone and everyone that loves an excellent breakfast.

I had been here once before for breakfast and don't remember what we had ordered but it was not something that we enjoyed much, and didn't think I'd come back. Had a meeting here last week so had to give it another try. Ordered their Kale Tonic, and Chicken Pesto Quinoa Bowl. Both orders were really good! Kale tonic has kale, cucumber and fuji apples. It's very sweet, and I confirmed with them to make sure there is no added sugar or any other sweetener. The quinoa bowl is delicious and a healthy choice. Service and atmosphere was great! Will definitely be back for more! read more

Shout out to The First Watch staff who greeted us at the door with big smiles. Food was hot and delivered quickly. Sweet Zoe graciously served our table and met every request. Manager Daniel checked to assure all was well. My husband's steel cut oatmeal was generously loaded with fruit and came with an extra saucer of milk, without requesting! From hairstyles to happy service we loved this place!!! read more

My mom recommended this chain for us to eat. She came from out of town. We decided to eat at this location. The first time we came, our food came out cold and the potatoes were under cooked. We thought maybe it was just a fluke thing that happened. We came back 2 days later to try it again. Once again, our food was cold. Our breakfast sandwiches were thrown together and not toasted at all, and I didn't get my side of turkey sausage that I ordered. We sent the food back without eating any of it to get made properly and it took a good 30 minutes to finally get our properly made food... they attempted to wipe off our original plates, but it still had the previous egg yolk and avocado smeared all over the plates. And I still didn't get my turkey sausage. Then our waiter acted annoyed when I asked for it again. There was no apology, no offer to make anything better, just the check placed on the table. Won't be returning to this location again. Terrible service. read more

Second time here. This is a great place for healthy and well made breakfast. Thanks to Ron, (Raunak), the kitchen prepared scrambled eggs perfectly, which is a lot more difficult than you would think. Loved the chives in them. orange, beet, ginger, juice was awesome and all at a fair price. Great quick service from my knowledgeable and friendly server, Ron. read more
