    Local breakfast doesn't get much better than at First Watch. This place is so consistent, and my fave dish is the Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl! It's among the lowest-calorie options available, yet delivers arguably the MOST flavor! Add eggs on the side and you're set, feels good after a big workout Their fruit drinks aren't cheap, but taste good. The server accidentally gave us a Pineapple Express drink, wrong table, so they didn't charge us while giving it away free - they can't take it from the table once served. So kudos to their customer service!

    Generally would be a 5 star but the glasses were very dirty with water (I hope) streaks. The food is expensive but overall on par for the quality of food. It is always packed so be prepared to wait. Smaller shared parking lot so be prepared to have to hunt for a spot when busy hours. Good customer service.

    First watch is a super popular, trendy and always busy breakfast and brunch spot that has several locations popping up all over Lousiville. This particular spot is located In the fern creek portion of the city just of Bardstown road. Crammed in a very small but busy newer shopping center the parking is limited and difficult to find a spot for this popular spot. Inside it is like most first watch spots with any southern home country cooking feel and decor. The service here is very good and very friendly. The menu here is traditional breakfast with some different variations of your normal breakfast favorites. The food here is always fresh and has good flavor hence the popularity. My biggest turn off for first watch honestly is they are always so crowded and I'm not a big waiter. Food is on the higher priced scale for most normal breakfast places but flavor and portions are pretty nice. Overall you can't go wrong with first watch. Just show up early before you're starving and for this location be patient when looking for a parking spot.

    This location has a warm and cozy ambiance. It is also less busy compared to the other branches. 5 have the new chilaquilles, which is my now current favorite. I love that this restaurant offers healthy menu items without compromising the flavor and tastes.

    We stopped in here for breakfast this morning. It was good. I've never been here before the food was tasty. The service was good. The ambience was nice. The place itself is a good solid spot. It's a little over priced or something. I couldn't eat all the time, but overall it was a good experience.

    I usually love and enjoy the food at First Watch but Wednesday was an exception. I called in an order we leaving Baptist Eastpoint after a shot in my foot. We ordered some carry out to be picked up in 10-15 minutes. Great! Well not so. We arrived 15 minutes later and it only took my husband 3-5 minutes to be waited on to checkout. When we arrived at home I opened the food to plate it and my omelet only had bacon and cheese in the center area and the avocado slices were mostly gray and turned the egg gray where they touched. The fried cubed potatoes were so black and hard that over 1/2 were inedible. Looked as if the pan was scraped and all the loose burned garbage was thrown into our containers. Sad. If I had been sitting at a table I would not have eaten the food and I would have sent it back. Very Disappointed.

    I really wanted to love First Watch because the service was great and their whole grain toast was some of the most lovely bread I've ever eaten...but all the other food was mid at best. The best way I can describe the reason for my dislike is that the menu was just uninspiring. All the food was plain- stuff I could easily make at home. Nothing was seasoned particularly well. It really is a shame because of the great ambiance and welcoming staff, but I think I'm gonna stick to Wild Eggs. I'd rather drive across town for more interesting food.

    Scrambled eggs with cheese and grilled onions, blueberry pancake with blackberry purée, crispy bacon the bacon was so good! And potato's.

Particularly when chefs prefer fancy twists on familiar bar food. Our group of 6 adults and two grandkids had a hit & miss experience. My wife's fish tacos were a disaster. We requested blackened fish instead of fried on corn tortillas. Her dinner was a disappointment. Cold flimsy tortillas and cold fish with an overpowering aioli. No sides were included in this order. Another diner ordered the BLT. Again, they had to dress up the sandwich rather than stick to the classic. The pimento cheese did not enhance the sandwich. Another at the table went with one of Recbars "egg rolls". It was lead. Heavy, with an overpowering greasy, flavor. The "wrap" was so heavy, we couldn't tell what was inside. On the plus side, my chicken parmigiana sandwich was very good. Lightly breaded and fried, moist and covered with a solid marinara sauce and melted cheese. Served on a bun with tater tots. The cornflake chicken fingers were impressive. Large pieces, again. lightly fried. Service was friendly, patient & prompt. They only serve Pepsi products and if you're looking for a diet drink you've got one choice-diet Pepsi. Thankfully, they do offer unsweetened ice tea. Of course, there's a full service bar for "grown up" drinks. The desert, "oh cinnappy" ordered for our 9 yr old grandson was a hit with the adults. He preferred to hit the games. The rest rooms were smelly and messy. And one had no paper towels to dry your hands. But here is why we'll never go back. As we were ready to leave, the sky opened up. A drenching storm. My wife asked the hostess for a plastic bag to cover her hair. The response? Not my job, you'll have to ask your server. We were dumbstruck by that response. She's the greeter. And clearly has no concept of customer service. The servers were busy (the place was hopping on a Sunday night) and she was just standing at the front desk. No one waiting for a table. No one at the door. She just couldn't be bothered. So, we won't bother to come back.

The reviews complimented the food, service and atmosphere so we gave it a try and we were glad we did! We walked into to a classic sports bar that had old school sports bar character. The staff immediately greeted us and promptly led us to our table. The menu is large and varied. One surprise was that they had lobster bisque- we all ordered that as an appetizer. My son ordered wings with fries and coleslaw and my wife and I ordered potato skins. The bisque was very good. When they brought out the rest of the order, we were pleasantly surprised at the size of the buffalo wings. For some reason, so many restaurants have turned to serving miniature, anemic chicken wings thinking the customer doesn't care. Bungalow Joes is one of the rare places to serve legitimate chicken wings and legs. They were huge and delicious!!! The potato skins were smaller but full of flavor. The coleslaw was a winner- they called it Caribbean coleslaw and described it as sweeter than typical coleslaw. The coleslaw was sweeter and my son and wife loved it. The fires were good, as well. All in all, we had a great lunch at Bungalow Joe's. Our waitress was great, the food was legit and the atmosphere was perfect for a sports bar. The wings ensured that we will be back. Thank you Bungalow Joe's!!!

The pickle chips were a little on the salty side. The fish dinner entree was really good with well apportioned pieces of fish, fresh onion rings and cole slaw which was a little weird with the pineapple in them but still tasty. My server was really nice and ensured everything was delivered in a timely manner. Next time I will try a burger and see how that goes.

The other buildings and strip mall setups are blocking the view from the major areas of bardstown road and highway 44. Very much an American restaurant setup with tvs every where similar to other. Local places like roosters, bw3's or beef o Brady's. This unlike the others aren't A franchise and is a smaller solo location that has been here since 2013. They still have a good amount of TVs, a bar and a pretty diverse food menu. Tonight when visiting for the first time I was arriving with a large party. It was my entire family of 6 plus 3 other friends of our kids. We received really good and top notch service the entire time and they handled our party size very well. We started off with two apps. We got the cheese and queso and the mozzarella sticks. We all only got one stick a piece and it was pretty good. Nice and thick cheese. The queso was amazing. Not many chips came with it an a lot of queso came with it. Our waiter recognized our party size and brought us a second bowl of chips out. Not sure if that is the norm but it was very nice of him regardless as I've never received a second plate of chips when ordering chips and queso app off other places menus. For our entrees we sampled the menu pretty good. I personally got the bbq bacon quesadilla and it was very good. Nice bbq sauce taste and salsa was very good. Chicken had good flavor and was cooked nice. Not the largest meal but it was tasty. My wife got the Cajun shrimp pasta and said it was great. Her side salad she enjoyed too. My two youngest and one of the family friends ordered off the kids menu. Two of them got chicken tenders and my second youngest daughter got a cheeseburger. The cheeseburger was phenomenal. One of the best if not the best kids menu cheeseburger I've ever had. Great flavor. The older kids got a catfish meal (family friend who said it was great), Buffalo shrimp (my oldest said was great) and the other family friend got honey bbq wings. I ate about 3 of the wings and they were great. Very saucey, crispy, large and with plenty of meat. Great sauce flavor too. Very messy but very good. The friend of my daughters who is a wing lover said they were great and she would want to come back to this place again. Overall everything we ate or sampled borders on either good or great. So very satisfied with our meal here and as stated we got great service. It was a Sunday nights in late April so there wasn't much of a crowd or any big sporting events on. However, I imagine during those type of events that This Is a cool place to watch them. As it has Good food and nice full service bar. Glad I found this place. Definition of a hidden gem. I've literally drove by the parking lot it is in a hundred times and never even seen the store front before. Pricing was good. Fot a party of 9 who got 8 entrees and 2 apps it was still under $100. So you can't complain about that at all. Ill absolutely come back. I'll make sure to come back in the future and maybe catch a football game or ufc fight here one night to experience that atmosphere.
