Pancakes and eggs and sausage
Hannah J.

Delicious and quick service. Ordered a simple trifecta breakfast, everything came out quickly. The ambiance was cozy and the warm syrup was a nice touch for my pancake. Will return.

Watermelon Wakeup juice
Kris G.

The food was tasty once it arrived. However, it did take a good bit of time to get to that point. The odd part was in our party of two it took an additional 10 minutes for my order to arrive after the omelette was delivered. Then I only received part of the order-- the potatoes. Took another 10 minutes for the eggs Benedict, which at that point, my other party was almost finished. It didn't make for the dining experience we had hoped for having not been imhere in years, we were really looking forward to it. The food: good, bad and other-- The Watermelon Wake up was quite refreshing and that limed mint sugar rim was on point! The eggs benwdict--- that hollandaise really brought the lemon twang! Would have been very tasty on the potatoes had there been any left at that point. The ham was perfectly thinly shaven. The poached eggs were a touch over poached with a gooey versus oozy consistency. The tomato was juicy & tasted like a solid summer tomato. The "tossed greens" were dry and lacked dressing but were fixed by the requested addition of dressing supplied. The potatoes were inconsistent in that the larger chunks were under-cooked but the ones that were smaller had a GREAT crust that almost made them taste like yummy potato pancakes with a small scattering of well done onions! The ham & grueye omelette was enjoyed (with the same issue on the tossed mixed greens). I would consider returning but for the $75 pricetag (after tax and tip), it wouldn't be too soon, unfortunately...

Another fantastic return visit to First Watch! Their seasonal specials truly keep bringing us back. We started with the blueberry cornbread and lemon butter--oh wow! Absolutely delicious. I could've easily eaten a few of these, but they're generously sized, so sharing was perfect. Next, we tried the breakfast special with steak chimichurri, eggs, and hash. It was fabulous--decadent, savory, and packed with flavor. We also shared the fluffy, delicious ricotta lemon pancakes (two huge stacks!), and they did not disappoint. Light, lemony, and perfectly cooked. Their coffee is some of the best out there and we try them all! Our server was so attentive and perfectly interactive. Every visit reminds us why we love coming here. Consistently great food, creative seasonal offerings, and a wonderful experience all around. We'll definitely be back again...and again!

Food was delicious, service was great and the atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming and the smell of food was amazing!

Blueberry cornbread

We went on a Tuesday morning and there was no wait. Megan was our waitress and she was great. Very pleasant and attentive. Food and coffee were good. We had blueberry cornbread, the Chickenchanga, and the traditional breakfast. All decent sized servings.

Our order was initially placed at 12:19 for a 12:36 pickup time. We did not make it to the store to pick the order up until after 1pm. We were directed to the pickup station, where we saw two bags next to each other; one with our order name on it and one without. We grabbed the initial bag with our order name(and bag number on it #1). The second bag had no name, order number, or bag number written on the sticker. After coming home and opening the bag(around 2:15pm) we had only received 3 of our main entrees and our entire kids entree without the drink. We called the restaurant around 2:20pm to inform them we were missing multiple items. I believe we were speaking to Piper at the time. We were told that they were closing in 9 minutes and offered to remake the food that we were missing in the morning. We told them that we were unable to come back in the morning, and that we would like to return for our missing items. The woman on the phone told us that we can come back, let her know what we were missing, and it would be remade for us. We returned to the store at 2:36p, and asked for Piper. Piper immediately handed us a bag and informed us that both bags were for us, even though the second bag had zero indication of that being true. I would also like you to keep in mind that our food was not remade after sitting on a shelf for over an hour; we were handed cold food. I asked Piper if she could remake the kids apple juice that was sitting on the second shelf, on the opposite side of where she said our bags were sitting. She said that the apple juice that was in the shelf was perfectly good, and that they did not add any ice so it wouldn't be watered down. We refused because we are not interested in giving a child an apple juice with no cover that had been sitting on a shelf with no supervision. Ince she noticed that we dis not want the old apple juice she promptly asked if we would like a fresh one. After grabbing the fresh juice we went back to our car and opened up the bag(which I believe we should have opened before we left the restaurant). In the second bag there was one Entree that was missed completely, with an incorrect side, and we were given our appetizer that was also missing, but nothing else. We called someone who was home with the first bag of food to be sure that we were still missing multiple items, and then we went back to the door to find it locked(completely understandable as they had closed) someone unlocked the door for us while blocking the entrance and we asked for Piper again. This time we were initially called liars, as Piper repeatedly said that she packed the order herself and was certain nothing was missing. I offered to have the person at home send a picture of what we received in our first bag, and didn't get a response. I told her that we had no reason to lie, and didn't get a response. She impatiently listened to us as we told her all the sides we were missing, quickly walked back inside to have a few of our sides made and handed us another bag. I let her know that we were still missing a side(specifically the grits that was with one of our entrees) and she repeated again that she packed the order herself. I showed her the entree in the bag that she just gave us and let her know that its not in any of the two bags she handed me. She then said they had run out of grits and it would have to be refunded. And then repeated again that she packed it herself(once again making a notion that we were lying). At this point we had been standing and going back and forth with her for almost 15 minutes and still didn't have our entire order nor was it correct but was also receiving attitude, which was unnecessary. We have been to First Watch multiple times (usually sitting on the patio) and we have an amazing time every single time. This is the first time we have such an issue with First Watch and its very disappointing. This review has been emailed to the customer service team as well on the website. And i want to reiterate that First watch has amazing food! I believe they need to re train some of their staff on customer service. I have never had such an issue with anyone in First Watch before today.

Great food and an early morning breakfast are available for all early birds like me. The First Watch offers the classic French Toast breakfast that my husband loves.

Bloody Mary

Busy Sunday morning with a 30-minute wait. Cool interior and waitress was nice and pleasant. Breakfast tacos (3) were good. Bloddy Mary, better. Especially the bacon! Big menu with other interesting items.

We hadn't visited First Watch in months. Should have avoided it altogether. I ordered " Traditional Eggs Benedict " with potatoes on the side. I'm including a photo of the dish. Sliced deli ham on a very hard hoagie roll with eggs and tomato with a sauce that was so lemony that it overpower everything. I could barely cut through the roll. Finally gave up and scraped the eggs off and ate them. The potatoes were so overcooked they were burnt. My husband had to send his meal back too. Waffle was raw in the middle and the bacon looked like it had been drenched in grease. It was awful. Our server was friendly and was obviously embarrassed. We won't be back.

The traditional
Dana R.

Not a bad brunch spot. They have a lot of options on their menu and there is always something to choose from. If you're going on a Sunday after church, I highly recommend putting in your name online as they usually have a line going out the door. I think the staff here is friendly and works really hard to accommodate the tables they are assigned to. They almost appear overworked, but I know they're trying their best and I always have a great experience. As for the food, it's nothing special. I think for what you get, it is reasonably priced and tastes good, but nothing blew me away. I think it's a great option for a quick breakfast/brunch and you're not looking to spend too much.

Outdoor dining area

15 min wait on a Thursday morning and 30 min wait for food. Outdoor area was dirty. All planters full of dead plants. Got my order wrong so could not eat with group. When they finally brought my order it was not gluten free.

I had the pleasure of enjoying food with my mom from First Watch on Friday 17 August 2024 [ This was our first time trying this place ] !! I ordered the TriFecta for the both of us with an Iced Coffee for me and she opted for the Purple Haze ,, The food tasted absolutely amazing but there were a few cons such as the portion size of the food being smaller than expected ( the 1 Sausage for the TriFecta meal for example and also the Iced Coffee had absolutely no sugar in it .. ) Due to the price that I paid in total I was just expecting a larger portion!! Giving this restaurant 4 Stars!! I think that I will be a possible visitor again in the future!!

We got the chicken Cesar salad and the bacon Mac and cheese…read more Chicken salad was a standard Cesar that was in the top half of Cesar's I've have. Chicken may have been a little on the dry side but that's not why you get a salad. This place routinely earns awards for best Mac and Cheese in the area. Certainly agree that it is very good! Very creamy cheese sauce and the bacon is cooked right. Finely chopped crispy bits add a very good touch and are well worth the upcharge. Portion size also very good. We split the salad and the Mac. Good drink variety. Outdoor and indoor seating. Located in a shopping plaza for a post eating shopping spree. Would recommend especially for those with picky eaters.

Wooden booths that gave you privacy while having a conversation. And converse we did!!!! It was nice to meet someone that you only knew by reviews on a website. It's a good thing they didn't charge extra for all that yakking!! I had a Caesar salad with shrimp and it was delicious. The shrimp were a nice size and grilled beautifully. The Caesar dressing was quite good , not too much cheese which I like. I would have preferred some toasted bread crumbs over bagged croutons but I should have just asked to leave them off. It's rare to find a place that makes croutons anymore. My companion had fish tacos and they were blackened beautifully. And on a day that was hot as hades, that air conditioning worked great!! They do have outside seating for cooler weather. And it's close to my house!

We chose Coleman Public House based on their outstanding Yelp reviews, and they absolutely lived up…read moreto the hype! One thing that immediately stood out was that they were open late on a Sunday. We arrived around 8 PM, which was incredibly convenient, and since the restaurant wasn't crowded, we were seated right away. Our server (I unfortunately don't remember her name, she was blonde and incredibly friendly) provided what was probably the best service we experienced during our entire trip. She was attentive, welcoming, and made excellent recommendations. We ordered the 2x California Burger, chicken sandwich, a gyro, side salads (they put the dressing on the salads, it was actually the perfect amount for me, but just be warned, ask for it on the side if you want to add it yourself), and a cheesesteak. The gyro (I got lamb) was recommended by our server, and it did not disappoint! Everything was fantastic, but the burgers deserve special recognition. Whoever was working the grill that night deserves a raise. Hands down, the best burger we had on our entire trip. The seasoning was perfect, the patties were thick and juicy, and they had an amazing char that took them to the next level. We also upgraded to the Aloha Fries, which were a great addition and definitely worth trying. From the outstanding food to the exceptional service, Coleman Public House exceeded our expectations in every way. We'll definitely be back because there are still so many items on the menu we want to try. The place was clean, could use a little update/refresh with paint and small things...but I come for the food first and foremost. Seriously, give this place a shot, you won't regret it. Yum!

Coleman is a touch more expensive than comparable places but of very good quality. No complaints In that regard.

Fun Atmosphere, Great Service, but Burgers Were Just Okay…read more We finally made it to Bohemian Bull in person after ordering takeout a few times through DoorDash! We were lucky enough to snag seats at the bar just after the big rush for half-priced burger night. We started with the Buffalo wings, which were crispy, delicious, and tossed in an amazing Buffalo sauce! Unfortunately, the blue cheese dressing was a miss. When you find yourself questioning whether they accidentally gave you ranch instead, you know the blue cheese isn't quite hitting the mark! A good, bold blue cheese would have made those wings even better. For our mains, we ordered two burgers: the Build Your Own with lettuce, tomato, onion, and American cheese, and the Black & Bleu Jalapeño Burger. We made a couple of modifications to the latter, requesting the jalapeños on the side and adding grilled onions. The burgers themselves were decent, but nothing particularly memorable. We weren't asked how we'd like them cooked, which made us wonder whether the patties were fresh or frozen. Both arrived well done, and we were definitely thankful for the toppings, which helped add some much-needed flavor and moisture. I also couldn't taste any bacon jam on the Black & Bleu, so I'm wondering if it was accidentally left off. We noticed a 50-cent charge for the jalapeños, even though they're already included on the burger. Probably just a small mistake when ringing in the modifications. Certainly not a big deal, but worth mentioning. We also tried both the truffle fries and the regular skinny fries, and enjoyed both! At $18 for a burger, I'd expect something a little more impressive, especially if the patties are indeed frozen. At half price, however, it's a much more reasonable deal. A special shoutout to Jake behind the bar, who was super attentive and helped make our first dine-in visit such a fun experience! The atmosphere was lively, the service was great, and despite a few misses with the food, we genuinely enjoyed ourselves. Overall, a fun night out with some hits and misses. We'd definitely consider coming back, especially for the wings, fries, and another visit to the bar!

One of my goals when…read moreI moved back South was to go to every restaurant that served fried okra.i don't think I had it but may be once when I lived in Florida and I have been steadily working on it since I have returned. This is a sports type bar with lots of TV's and very nice servers. I really want to bring my daughter back here when they have line dancing because we have been known to cut a rug from time to time. ( she more than me these days! lol) I had a smash ( double ) cheeseburger and it was solid. I asked if the fried okra was fresh and was told it was. I will eat frozen if cooked properly but I do not eat fried pickled okra that is passed off as fresh so now I always ask. I have caught a few fibbers , but most restaurants are honest. These were cooked in a beer batter which is not the norm and I liked them!! So this will be a treat on haircut day! And a good place to watch a game if you aren't at my house.

The interior has humorous things…read moreon the wall, dollar bills signed and stapled to the bar, and a great vibe in a very clean environment. We had to try the Apple Pie shots since everyone seems to talk about them. This is way more complex than some apple flavor liquor. The ingredients take some prep work, and the result is something that literally tastes like apple pie. If they bottled this, I would definitely buy it. They have two specialty drinks, the Freshy and the Orange Crush, both of which are made with fresh squeezed juice squeezed right when you order. I had the Freshy which is orange or grapefruit juice with your favorite liquor. I chose grapefruit with vodka and even though I am not a huge fan of grapefruit the freshness and tartness of the drink made it quite enjoyable. My wife had the Orange Crush with Deep Eddy's O.J vodka, Triple Sec, Sprite and some of that fresh squeezed orange juice. It was nice and sweet which was good since we were ordering a lot of savory options. The Potato Skins arrived first and they were truly impressive. Good sized skins with the perfect amount of potato, not too thick or too dry and definitely homemade. They had mixed cheese, bacon and green onions served with sour cream also loaded with green onions. As far as all the potato skins I have had these were a standout. Next came the onion rings with an absolute massive serving for just eight dollars. You could tell they were homemade and served with a chili garlic sauce. The best part was the batter coating which was crispy yet didn't fall off when bent or bitten. They reheated nicely in the air fryer. Next, we tried the Toasted Raviolis which were filled with Italian sausage and served with a house made marinara. They were nice and crispy, but the true star was the marinara sauce which was thick and chunky with parmesan mixed all throughout. I wish they had more dishes that used this sauce as it was excellent. On the advice of some regulars, I tried the chicken fingers which were all breast meat, dill brined and hand battered. It was good advice since the chicken was juicy and tender with a flavorful coating. Sometimes it pays to ask. My wife ordered the thing they are known for their Philly Cheesesteak. She decided on double meat, and they were super generous to the point she looked at me and said, "I don't know how I am going to finish this!". This cheesesteak gets nominate for a lot of best of lists and I could see why. I liked that the cheese was mixed in with the meat and not just poured on top. She enjoyed it but said next time she will order it as is. This is a great place to hang out and relax and maybe catch a band or some bluegrass and enjoy a great meal!
