I love eating at First Watch!! Whether I'm eating healthy or indulging in something sweet I know I'm going to have a fantastic meal!!! The Kale Tonic and the Million Dollar Bacon is to die for!!! You've gotta try them both!!! You won't be disappointed!! And hopefully you'll be lucky enough to have Enrique as your waiter!!! He's all smiles and his joyful countenance is sure to brighten your day! read more

this location is beautifully updated. Enrique was such a wonderful server, we felt so welcome.

This place is THE BEST. Go often enough and the amazingly friendly staff will know your order. They love what they do...enjoy taking care of customers...and it shows. The food is always top notch! read more

Payton was a get sever. They were very friendly and checked in on us. Not to the point where it was overwhelming either. 10/10 for them. The food was delicious! I got the traditional breakfast and the eggs were perfectly cooked. The restaurant was clean and open. read more

Extremely disappointed with the service today. My friends had been waiting for about 10 minutes before 2 other girls and I got there. As soon as we sat down, the waitress said, "are you guys ready to order?" I said, "We are ready to order drinks, but we still need time to look at the menu for food." The waitress rolled her eyes and let out a huge sigh and said "We are super short staffed. I need to take the drink/food orders at once. I'm really busy and don't have time to come back." I totally understand being short staffed and she should've left it at that instead of making us feel like an inconvenience. The eggs were cold when they came out. And my friends yogurt bowl took 5-10 minutes to come out after everyone else's food was delivered. Like I said, I totally understand being understaffed but the rolling of the eyes, the huge sigh, and the commentary was unnecessary. read more

I placed an order at 7:58 am online for curbside at 8:45. I arrived at 8:40 and realized there was no curbside spot to park in. I get it's a busy area, but if they are going to offer curbside, maybe make a spot on the side of the building. I called at 8:41 am to let them know where I was parked and the type of car. The lady responded with, "I will be right out." 8:51 am, no one is there, so I called. I called them and spoke to another woman who said, "Oh yeah, we need to get that order started for you." What?!? In the meantime, I have a screaming baby in the car and told the lady that, and we stated that I would have to wait. 9:01 am, the same lady calls me and says the manager has been looking for you with your food. Huh? Nope, sorry. I saw him in the parking lot and yelled to him if he had my food, and he said no. So then she last says, "oh, let me let you talk to my manager." The manager gets on and says your food is almost ready and will be out in 5 minutes. Again I was lied to because the lady said he had my food. The manager comes to my car at 9:06 am with food and doesn't even say sorry. Just walked away. I left upset and called and asked to speak to him. When he got on the phone, he was arrogant and agitated. I told him that he could refund my tip because obviously, no one cared to help me. He said, "Oh yeah, because you had to wait a whole 15 minutes." No, I waited 20 minutes past my time to get my food. Unacceptable! This place does not have great customer service and expects customers just to wait for their food past the time allotted. Horrible experience! read more

Always has good food and is delivered as promised. I look forward to ordering from the menu again.

I like going to First watch restaurants, they all have the same menu and are always consistent in the quality of their food and service. The times I have been to this location there has always been a long wait. So be prepared for the wait on the weekends. The cool thing is that they have technology connected to yelp. So you can put your name on the list and go shopping at half price books around the corner and check your status on the yelp app while you shop. Once seated the service is pretty fast and friendly. Be sure to try the avocado toast read more

Enrique was amazing! attentive and courteous: thank you for the experience. I always love coming here and appreciate having somewhere to unwind after work. Thanks y'all read more

Because of my work travel, I have visited at least 12 stores in the franchise. This store was impeccably clean with a too rate work staff. What was extra significant was the presentation of the food. Most restaurants, the actual menu items look better than the food is depicted through pictures or descriptions; not this time, the tacos and fruit were amazing! I hope the people in Kansas wake up and support the best breakfast and lunch place in town! read more

We absolutely love First Watch. They have a ton of food choices you just don't find anywhere else. We always have the million dollar bacon which is very tasty. I had the chorizo Chile omelette and my wife had the traditional breakfast. They service was great and the food came out pretty quick. We recommend the app for making a reservation since it's such a hopping place to eat. Will definitely return and tell our friends as well. read more

First of all the service was so slow and you have to refill your own water and the glasses are so tiny ! I expected a lot better. The eggs tasted like nothing and the bacon was trash. Get bigger glasses and refill our water read more

Good brunch, good coffee! Make sure to check in on yelp to decease wait time :) I recommend the eggs Benedict! read more

This is our FAVORITE First Watch! It's so clean. They're super friendly too! Someone greets us immediately, even when the line is out the door & wrapped around the building. Our waters and coffee never run out and we're always asked, if we'd like a "to go" cup, to take the rest of our drinks. read more

The service was very nice and fast. The food is absolutely exceptional. Looks good and tastes good. Even the portions were big enough which for me says something good about a brunch place. The coffee is decent. The prices are very reasonable; almost everything was under $10. read more

Food was amazing! I've gone a few times before but the plate I ordered today was by far the best dish I've had at First Watch. The omelet was cooked just right with a nice balance of ingredients inside, a little more chorizo would've been nice but it was still good. I also should've said no sour cream or light sour cream. The potatoes were soft inside and a light crisp outside, perfect. The million dollar bacon is everything, it never disappoints. The service was great as well. Food came out quick and my waitress was attentive. read more

First Watch - Chile Chorizo Omelet and Million Dollar Bacon - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

Yet another breakfast place to try! I walked into this location and my first thought was "wow! This is absolutely gorgeous!!" What a cute little well decorated breakfast place! The place was packed on a Friday morning at 10 am -- but we didn't have to wait for a table. We did however have to wait about 5 min to be greeted by our server. She immediately showed up with a coffee pot and a carafe of water but for some reason didn't give us the water -- and didn't realize until she walked off. I drink a lot of water with my meals and noticed all the other tables in the restaurant had a nice full carafe of water on their table...about 5-10 min later she returned to take our order. I love me some good pancakes so I just went with the trifecta which is a pancake with two cage free eggs and either bacon,turkey sausage, or ham I believe. Obviously I got bacon! - hubby tried out their seasonal breakfast option of a pork Asian breakfast bowl - eggs - a blend of quinoa, and brown rice with Cilantro and jalapeño Anddd maybe some onions? He said it was good but it was a small portion so he also ordered a chocolate chip pancake. Everything was good -- just a little more on the expensive side for the amount you are getting. Not at the top of our breakfast list but still delicious and a cute cute place! read more

This is my favorite location to come to. The space is always clean and the atmosphere is great,The staff are friendly and attentive. I absolutely LOVE the kale tonic juice! It's kale, Fuji apple, cucumber and lemon, I'm always hesitant to try juices because they usually have a bitter taste,but this juice is so refreshing and naturally sweet! I ordered the avocado toast and it comes with two cage free eggs. I prefer my eggs to be sunny side up! I also ordered additional sides of turkey sausage and a side of their potatoes because they have the best potatoes! Everything came out in a timely manner, and tasted very good! This was my first time trying the avocado toast and I would highly recommend it. The toast is thick cut with a generous amount of avocado spread atop. My husband really enjoys their hash skillets, he ordered the Parma skillet which comes with egg, sun dried tomatoes, onion ,mushrooms,potatoes and he substituted the pork sausage for turkey sausage. His plate also came with a small side of fruit and a English muffin. Nothing disappointed, we were very satisfied with our the turnout! read more

Breakfast is always amazing. My granddaughter loves the chocolate chip pancake (it's almost as big as her head).

Delicious food that's very unique. Just a bit pricey for what it is. Overall, I like staff, the taste, the speed of service, and many other things, likes is very close to where I live. Parking is kinda awful on weekends, but that's not their fault. Overall, I always have a great experience here, just for the reason described above, I've had $50 breakfast for two that was 5-stars. This is close, though I wouldn't be honest with you or myself. read more

This is one of my all time favorites for breakfast and brunch! I've always had great service here. The hosts are friendly and welcoming and the wait staff is efficient and personable. The restaurant is always clean and well maintained. The first time I went to First Watch I ordered the Farmhouse Skillet Hash. It's got two eggs (served any style) on top of potatoes, onion, tomatoes, avocados, bacon and cheese. It is absolutely delicious. Because I like this dish so much, I've failed to branch out and order anything else! However, my friends have been gracious enough to let me try some of their dishes. The biscuits and gravy are delicious as is the avocado toast. The only thing that I can think of that would make First Watch better would be the addition of more drink options. I'd love to pair my Farmhouse Skillet Hash with a Bloody Mary or mimosa. read more

the food was cold, my waffle was completely soggy and rubbery, the bacon was awful. not one good thing about this Fathers Day breakfast.

Fun eating experience ... from the moment we walked in PERSONALITY.... our service person was helpful and pleasant. Excellent variety of food... not your average food choices and I loved it. A funky (good) flavor combination. read more

First Watch - Hash scramble farmhouse and Eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

Been trying to get into this place for months. Supper busy on weekends. So if yo are planning for an awesome breakfast on a Saturday morning, get there early! If not, do the weekday and you will not regret getting to work late. Place has a great atmosphere and is so inviting. Service was excellent. Server really nice. Very clean place. Ordered the traditional breakfast. Plenty of food for $10.00. Believe me, worth the price. Two eggs, however you want, choice of breakfast meat, whole grain toast, potatoes, which are off the charts, and a side of preserve, which is awesome. As you can tell, everything is AWESOME! you will not regret taking a chance on this place. Some may say pricey, but look past the price and try this place out. Promise you will love it. read more

Their food is always very good. Great service. Friendly servers . I love the waffles, the only problem is they close early like 2 or 2:30.

I went to California, I came back, and this place went from OK to fantastic. New decor...Joanna Gaines vibe type of decor. Their menu is fresh with healthy options but they still have the classics to satisfy all tastes. My favorite is the garden omelette because it comes with goat cheese and veggies, but the best part is probably the thick, hearty grain bread I get with it and their homemade berry jam. Fresh juice galore, both fruit and veggie, kale tonics... this is 100% the only breakfast place in the suburb area of Olathe/Lenexa that will provide you these kind of options. read more

We stayed in Olathe this past weekend and found First Watch on Yelp. We liked it. Service was attentive. Coffee was strong. Food was pretty good. We tried the Chickichanga and Sonoran Fritatta. I have to say the chickichanga was by far the best. At first I was turned off by the name, sounds weird. But I was so wrong. It is so delicious and flavorful, the santa fe sauce is killer. It is an amazing blend of avocado, spicy chicken and green chilies, the chorizo is undetectable. But it doesn't matter the rest is so good. The Sonoran Fritatta is an open-face omelette, which doesn't make it a fritatta. Even though the description says its made with whipped eggs, it wasn't light and fluffy. The chorizo was a bit bland and so was the fritatta itself. It was ok, just not as good as the chickichanga. If we lived in the area I would definitely go back and try something else. The place is clean, first came out quick, you can tell they know what they're doing. read more

I have been to several First Watches since being introduced to them by my roomie. My favorite has been the one on hwy 69 and college. It also, seems to be everyone else's fav too because it's always packed!!! So I've passed this FW several times and finally decided to stopped in. We walked in and immediately got a seat. Wow, I'm amazed. I was in the mood for my usual belgium waffle (usually why I go to FW) Ordered and food is super fast to the table. Really!?!?! Ok, I am in love. My tri-fecta was per-fecta. Roomie got the works and wasn't that pleased with the omelet. I think she ordered the wrong thing, (she wanted avocados). She said she had to many "brunt crusties" from the pan of her FW potatoes. I don't usually like the FW potatoes but I actually liked these. So I told her to hush, they were good. It gets one less star from perfect because the server just didn't sit right with me. I'm use to the hwy 69 FW with pleasant conversations. Which is probably why that one is super busy and this one isn't. However the host/cashier was friendly. The free Wi-fi was great! Made for a nice yummy filled tummy morning. read more

By far the best breakfast in town. You can taste the quality in Every bite and the passion in everyone that works for this great Company

Director of Hospitality Elise hooked me up with the Pumpkin Pancake breakfast this morning and she gave it that extra flair by encouraging me to add chocolate chips. Definitely hit the spot!! It also came with a couple eggs, perfectly cooked over medium, and a chicken sausage patty which was better than any other I've had. The coffee was good too, fresh. Thanks Elise!!! You made my last day in KC extra special. I'll be back later for that Morning Meditation. read more

It's times like these I wish Yelp had a half star rating ability because I would give this location 3.5 stars. I know so many people sing the praises of First Watch and I get it: food is decent and fresh, lots of locations, and it's typically a quick experience. But I struggle with the price of items here. We somehow always end up spending $40 or more for two people. I would much rather spend that kind of money on a nice dinner with a good drink elsewhere. My most recent experience cost $54 for two adults an a kid meal and we didn't get anything elaborate. I could have made the same meal at home for a fraction of the price. Our food took at least 25 minutes to come to our table too. I will give kudos to being able to join the waitlist on the Yelp app-- it is so convenient! This is definitely necessary during peak hours and the weekends. read more

Disappointed, let down and an overall mediocre at best describes our visit to First Watch. For my brunch meal I chose the eggs benedict. The version here was the classic style but with little flavor and luke warm. My poached eggs still had uncooked egg whites in the middle. The hollandaise lacked the citrusy refreshing flavor it should have. Finally ham was good but cold. Pair this with a side of potatoes that were burned on one side and the rest were uncooked, it made for a disastrous brunch. Last gripe and then I will get off my soap box, with signs saying "Local Food" and "Farm Fresh" I doubt these statements. Maybe the eggs were local but when you have cucumbers, red peppers and avocado (which doesn't grow here anyway) in the middle of winter, you are not "Farm Fresh" when it comes off a Sysco truck. read more

My wife and I love this place. We've always had to wait when we get here, ranging from 10 minutes to an hour. They started a new text system to text you when your table is ready. We walked around the corner to half price books and browsed while we waited. The hostess told us 20 minutes and our table was ready in ten. Our server, Ryan, was quick and efficient. He wasn't too talkative, but did a great job. Very professional. My wife and I split the Floridian French Toast and the Bacado omelet. That omelet is amazing. One of the best I've ever had. We always order it with egg whites to cut some of the calories. The French toast was good, not excellent, about what we could make at home, but without the hassle and a small enough portion for just the two of us. It came topped with strawberries, kiwi and banana. Lots of fresh fruit on it. We will be ordering this again and splitting it between the two of us. read more

Let me start by saying that I've never been disappointed with my meals and the service at First Watch and I've eaten at multiple locations across the nation. Being a franchise, I feel like FW offers the best assortment of breakfasts that offer all-natural, organic meals with the least amount of substitute -- use authentic ingredients. If you go onto their website they have a page labeled "dietary guides" that give you gluten free options and what not to eat if you have certain food allergens. How informational and neat is that, especially if you need to be weary on what exactly is in your food. If you're a big coffee enthusiast then you may be a bit disappointed with their roast, but it's not bad. I enjoy their kale and spinach juice, so good and great for you! As well as their other juices -- freshly squeezed and made in-house. The omelette are amazing, this is coming from someone who doesn't care much for omelettes either. I recommend trying the Bacado (bacon, fresh avocado, Monterey Jack topped with salsa). If you're a pancake person then make sure you try their big-as-your-face pancakes (all pancakes are made with whole wheat batter). My favorite pancake is the banana nut and oats pancake (pictured). It has freshly cut banana slices mixed with oats and grains that give the pancake a nice consistency and added flavor. I also recommend their carrot cake pancake. So good! The wait staff is always quick to approach the table and take your order and are great about checking in with you after you've received your food. Very friendly too. read more

Food was great and so was the service!!! Love this one on 119th & Blackbob!!! Love the redecorating they have done!!

First time ever eating at a First Watch as we don't have one locally. Food was great. Lots of selection. I had the Bacado Omelet and it was great. My niece had the Belgian Waffle with the warm mixed berry compote. My niece is not a syrup eater so she would have liked more compote but she otherwise liked the waffle. Had we known, we would have done the online waitlist as we were told a 30-40 minute wait and chose to wait. Not a lot of waiting room inside so waited in the car and it was pretty cold that day. It was more like a 50-55 minute wait. We would definitely return. read more
