    Eggs Benedict & Rustic Omelette
    Xin F.

    I'm excited to finally check this place out. Didn't realized this place. This place gets busy but service is great! Staffs are very friendly and make sure to attend to your orders. Food came out hot and delicious! If they're still serving Watermelon Wake up drink, make sure you try em. It was absolutely refreshing!

    Tres Leche Strawberry Tres Leches French Toast

    First Watch has always been my favorite but the wait made me reluctant to go. We were seated as soon as we arrived and our order was taken very quickly. We opted for the specials and everything was delicious! The blueberry lemon cornbread actually had a lemon curd on top that was phenomenal! We took half back to the hotel and ate it for dessert later and it was just as good! The granola in my bowl was very tasty and I ended up buying a bag to take home on the way out. If you like lavender I would also recommend trying the purple haze drink. I had the watermelon wake up and was pretty rich but tasty

    Most expensive coffee I've EVER paid for

    Food was great BUT look at the bill and the charge for coffee. Off my list. $8 for 2 cup they should brew it at my table !!!

    Great friendly experience. Plenty of room for all the booths and tables. Very friendly waitress. Breakfast was served hot with awesome flavor. Good portions. Will be back for sure.

    Tri-athlete
    Gracie W.

    Very good breakfast, the interior is comforting, and everyone is very nice. The tri-athlete was great, the egg whites were cooked perfectly, veggies on the inside of the omelet were nice and tender, the pico added freshness, their toast is great, the all-natural house preserves are so fresh and sweet and plays nicely with the heat of the green chiles, the bowl of fresh fruit is a nice addition, and it was a good price for all that food.

    GREAT brunch/ breakfast place! Everytime I come here it's crowded and there is a short wait. The first time I came there I had to wait about 30-45 minutes and the second time I had to wait about 15-20 minutes but ended up doing a to-go order which also took about 30-40 minutes to get. Both times I just happen to arrive between 11AM-1PM. The tables are comfortable, very rustic. Service was great and food was bomb! portions are big so good to share if you're not crazy hungry. But for someone who's starving, the portion size is just right! I've had their ham eggs benedict which is delicious, their chocolate chip pancakes, and their turkey sausage gravy with biscuits and scrambled eggs and hash. Everything just tastes absolutely delicious! This place is great for groups and families to come enjoy a great meal together before starting their day! Pricing isn't bad either! Just be ready to wait if you arrive at the busy times.

    First watch is always delicious. I had the frittata {wild Alaskan smoked sockeye salmon, house roasted shallots and tomato's topped with Parmesan cheese and a chive cream cheese drizzle} --I would have loved a little more sauce with this dish. It's served with a fresh ciabatta roll--this was a little too crispy to eat though. They always have fresh squeezed juices that are amazing! They rotate these so they change frequently!

    I loved my food and drinks especially the purple haze drink we received from our lovely manager David and the mimosas we had definitely made everything even better lol no but we def enjoyed our time out at this restaurant from the food to the service everything was amazing I'm def goin back soon

    Smoked Salmon and Roasted Vegetable Frittata.
    Rebecca L.

    First Watch is amazing! They have a large menu that caters to a variety of dietary restrictions. I usually have a sweet tooth when it comes to breakfast, while my husband prefers something a bit more savory and First Watch has many healthy options that we both love! Today, I branched out from my normal sweet breakfast and tried the Smoked Salmon and Roasted Vegetable Frittata. It was very flavorful and the mixed greens added a nice, fresh element! The service has been great both times I have been to this location and the food has never disappointed. They can get pretty busy (though I have never seen it quite as bad as the Cedar Road location), but I highly recommend using Yelp! to join the waitlist. We got a table minutes after arriving, while others were having to wait 20-30 minutes for a table. Definitely a time saver that more people should take advantage of!

    I love the look and layout of this cute cafe! They have amazing vegan options to try and fall in…read morelove with! I went there for the first time and tried their chocolate chip cookie which was great! I also tried on of their breakfast bagel (bacun, sausage, egg and cheese) on an everything bagel which tasted good. Overall the service was super nice and helpful to me and made my experience super easy and pleasant. Will definitely come back k to try more vegan pastries!

    I do not think words can fully describe how wonderful of an experience I had at Birch Cafe. This…read morebusiness is just 10 minutes from my childhood home. I did not live in Cleveland as a vegan, and being able to come home and support a local vegan business gives me so much joy. I went with my sister and husband and we each ordered a sandwich and hash brown patty. I also got the Buckeye Latte because when in Ohio you have to have a buckeye! The employee at the register was so patient, kind, and knowledgeable. I asked her many questions, and she had an answer for everything. The latte was the right level of sweetness and so smooth!! It is challenging to get quality vegan lattes and this one I would order again in a heartbeat. I enjoyed the Chipotle Turkey sandwich, my husband ordered the ham and cheese bagel sandwich on a French toast bagel (employee recommended combo), and my sister got the Fiona Hammich. Birch cafe makes their turkey and ham in-house and I was so excited to try their vegan meats. Of the sandwiches I was happiest with the Chipotle Turkey sandwich. The spicy mayo on it was delicious and it had avocado too! I thought the turkey was hearty, a good texture, and flavorful. It didn't remind me of turkey but I honestly like when vegan meat is clearly plant based. My husband's bagel sandwich was a wonderful breakfast treat. The bagel choice was fun as it added a sweetness to the savory meal which is a favorite flavor combination of mine. My sister LOVED her sandwich. For me I enjoyed the flavors in my turkey sandwich more, and she was fine not sharing more than one bite with me. We purchased a large chocolate chip cookie and a turkey meal to take home. The chocolate chip cookie was one of the best I ever had. It was soft and chewy. I would definitely stock up on those cookies next time I am visiting. The turkey meal was such a fun post-Thanksgiving Day treat. My family loved the carrots the most! They were in a creamy horseradish sauce. It was so unique we all could not stop talking about the flavors. Thanks, Birch Cafe, for an amazing experience. I will certainly be back next time I am visiting family.
