So my wife and I stopped after church this morning to enjoy brunch. Unfortunately, we were told 30-40 minute wait, which we accepted since we have had good experiences here before. After watching some of the help stand around talking with dirty tables and quite a few to go orders going out the door, after 35 minutes I told the host we couldn't wait any longer. My guess is they didn't have enough kitchen help as servers didn't seem that busy. I normally don't complain about anything since any place can have a bad day, but it will be hard to return after this experience. For the cost of dining in First Watch locations I expect better. read more

First Watch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Interesting menu. Pumpkin pancakes, smoked salmon frittata. Etc. VERY NOISY. If you use hearing aids be prepared.

Great food. Great service. Always willing to go above and beyond. We have tried other breakfast places but alway end up comparing it to this location. read more

When you list your hours as opening at 7 AM and the door is locked at 7:40 you could at least put a sign up letting people know you are closed. People in the parking lot have no idea what is going on and a waitress just stares through the window rolling silverware and says nothing. I thought she could have come to the door and talked to us. There was a group of ten of us meeting for a business breakfast. So unprofessional! We went to another location that told us the maple first watch has a bad reputation and is the one to avoid. read more

Very friendly and incredible food! Highly recommend this place! Can't wait to return.

Excellent food, fast service and great atmosphere sums up this restaurant. I highly recommend visiting one of the many locations if in the area. This was the place to go before heading back home to Chicag read more

I love the food here, the coffee is always good and I've never had something I didn't like. Our server Laura on Maple today was great, so quick and nice! read more

First time here and I love what they are doing, the bummer is I love in California. Great atmosphere, service was nice and fast, it was busy too with people waiting. So that's always a bonus. Food was what to come back for fresh ingredients and innovative ideas for the menu and specials. Had the special Carnitas Breakfast Burrito, has warm tomatillo sauce and a lime cream sauce, pickled onions. It was so good. Definitely recommend this place. One of the best breakfast places I've been to. read more

A large menu with a lot of variety teamed with a vibrant atmosphere and good service all add up to a great place to enjoy breakfast and lunch. Dine inside or out. read more

I've been to this location a couple of times and always appreciate the variety of the chain's menu, consistent quality of their food and attention to cleanliness. I was disappointed today, however, by their uninspired waitstaff. Host team worked to seat our large group right away, but waitstaff seemed bored and was inattentive. Food came out slowly and only in sections, leaving one member of our party not receiving their toast until the rest of us had finished. Especially disappointed when it came time for us to pay as the server literally threw our tickets on the table. Not impressed. 5 stars for food, atmosphere and presentation, 2 stars for unremarkable service. read more

Oh dang, this is my kind of breakfast! I'm glad Omaha has another restaurant to fill my insatiable need for bacon. First Watch has several locations throughout the metro. My wife and I went to the 144th and Maple location. It was around 11:30am and we were immediately seated despite the crowd. The vibe reminds me of a rustic farmhouse. Exactly the place for breakfast in Nebraska!! The menu is much more eclectic than the usual breakfast joint and they have great options for fresh juice. I had their seasonal special which was a delicious watermelon, apple, pineapple, and mint concoction that was fresh and light. I then ordered the special cornbread and chorizo bowl with poached eggs and black beans. It was pretty dang good but it could have used a bit more spice. My wife had a breakfast sandwich that was apparently to die for. Overall I really liked my experience at First Watch and I'm happy to see that they have several spots in Omaha. That's going to make it easy for me to come back! read more

Love eating brunch at this restaurant! I have been here three times and all three times the servers were nice and courteous. Summer Crab Omelet I ordered was yummy (I ordered two times and both times were consistently delicious)! We had to use gift cards and a coupon to pay for our meal this time and the manager was super helpful to assist with our payment methods. If you come on the weekend, make sure you use the app to "Get In Line!" I forgot to do that this time and the manager told me I should try using the App next time. Lastly, we enjoy complimentary coffee and lemon water while waiting in line for our table. read more

Love their breakfast meals. I don't think anything on their menu will disappoint you. The only negative is that there is almost always a wait. That would only make sense since their food is the best!!! read more

IMO I would just skip this and just go straight to Saddle Creek Breakfast Club. This place is a chain who can not even get poached eggs correct. We have had the same issues multiple times and just dont think they have the cook staff needed. read more

Love the food but...... Two of us had breakfast there last week. I had avocado toast and coffee. The other person had a single large pancake and coffee. With tip, it came to almost 50 bucks. Never happening again read more

Best breakfast place in the planet. I'd eat there every day if I didn't have to travel 2000 miles to do it. Omaha friendly and great, healthy-as-you-want-it, creative dishes consistently executed. read more

I did really like First Watch. However, they have a few issues, which is why I did not rate them a full 5 stars. I'll start by saying I will not hesitate to go back, and the food was very good. However, when I went on Sunday morning around 9 AM they were extremely busy (like any other brunch place on Sunday mornings). The front entrance is EXTREMELY small ( I was told their other locations are similar). I was touching shoulders with everybody around me while waiting for my table. There are only two or three benches that sit three people at most, each. The other major issue was that at this location (i don't know about the others) you have to go up front to pay, and everybody trying to pay has to fight the massive crowd waiting at the door just to pay their bill. It's very uncomfortable in the front waiting area. They do have a water/coffee table for people waiting which I thought was very nice, however, again very hard to get to with all the people. My other issue was that service was extremely slow (To be expected when a place is that busy). It's difficult to keep a toddler entertained for that long, so I was glad they had coloring sheets for the kids. I really liked the food, I would go back and fight the crowds again because the food was very good. Next time I go I will however try to go at a less busy time. The prices are slightly higher than some other places, but not terrible. The portion sizes were perfect, I thought. Both adults at our table ordered the pumpkin pancake breakfast, which consisted of one (large) pumpkin pancake, two eggs made to order, and sausage. I ordered the chicken sausage instead of the turkey sausage, and it was also very good. The toddler with us had the kids fruit crepe, which was not a hit with her but that was only because she does not like bananas, which it contained. The staff was very understanding and was willing to quickly make some scrambled eggs with a few pieces of baked for her, which did go over well. I would recommend giving First Watch a try, just be prepared to wait. read more

I love this place! I'm has a rustic almost urban farmhouse feel. Like coming home! The hostess and our waitress were friendly, engaging and welcoming. I met my daughter for lunch. We had brunch instead! Our waitress was knowledgeable about the foods and making sure we had what we needed without suffocating us. We shared the house bacon. Oooo if you are a bacon lover this is a must! It was crisp, rich, with a maple chili sauce! So sweet, smoky and a bit of heat to warm you from the inside! I then had the mushroom frittata. Wow! Perfect size for one, velvety creamy eggs with earthy tasty mushrooms! I could it that all day! It was a wonderful way to start morning! read more

If you've been following my Yelp, you'll notice I'm on a big brunch kick right now. I've been going primarily with the local owned restaurants, but one of my friends said that First Watch was just as good without the (approx. 20% higher) price tag. We came in on a Sunday around 11:15 AM and the though the lobby was packed, the wait was only about 35 minutes. The size of the restaurant is much larger than any of the other local places and the decor was tasteful. Very much a "farmhouse" look on the inside. One SUPER nice perk I enjoyed (which I could confidently give them 3 stars) was their complimentary coffee and water station for guests who were waiting to be seated. Most entrees ranged from $8-$12 and the kids meals were $5.50 (I believe). I ordered the Kale Salad and my husband got the Chicken Chimichurri Hash. Judge away if you think my entree does not merit a full Yelp review, but a wise foodie once said, "You can determine the worth of a brunch place by their kale salad." Ok, I totally made that up, but bear with me- I DID happen to try everyone else's food. The portion sizes were fairly generous and even the kids sizes were large. The food was probably as good as a Village Inn, but slightly better. I think the challenge of First Watch is a bit of an identity crisis. Are they trying to appeal to a more "traditional" breakfast audience or are they going for progressive "farm-to-table" breakfast audience??? Their menu had a little bit of both, but when you try to appeal to all marketing segments it's really hard to devote your efforts and talents into excelling at one thing. While good, this place is not crave-worthy or somewhere that I'd be crawling to get back in. I've had better, I've had worse. Worth a shot if you haven't been, though! read more

Great Cobb salad. My lunch mate got a veggie burger that was good. Homemade dressing. Good eclectic menu. Will be back read more

Service WAS AWFUL, waited for 15 minutes and no server came to while others who were sat after us orders were taken we just got up and left

The food and juices here are definitely fresh and tasty! This is more of a "healthy" brunch option in omaha. I would say their cocktail selection is lacking compared to other places, but they have fresh juices that are unique. While I still personally prefer early bird for brunch, this place is definitely on my map. I had the rancher's hash, and it was awesome. The roasted tomatoes and cheese really made it pop. The avocado in it seemed unnecessary to me, and kind of felt like they put it in to cater to the more young, avocado-obsessed crowd, versus actually adding anything to the dish. I would also say their overall variety is lacking compared to early bird, too. Not a huge amount of lunch-y options for a brunch place either, which early bird has. Still, overall good experience and I would definitely come back just for that hash (with no avocado next time). read more

The Barbacoa burrito was absolutely delicious. At first I was going to order my usual eggs and bacon, but switched when the waitress said the barbacoa was delicious. So glad I listened to her. Meat, black beans, eggs, cheese,potatoes topped off with guacamole. read more

First Watch has a great brunch menu and very fresh ingredients. We took our one year old daughter with us and the server was very nice to help keep her busy he brought out some fruit, crayons, and coloring book for her. The food didn't take long at all and was very delicious. I can't decided if I liked the servers or the food more. Both were excellent at the Maple location. read more

Wish it was still Egg and I. Came here for some tasty breakfast while hungover and didn't realize how west coast it got. I think they forgot we're in Omaha ‍. If you love avocado in literally anything and everything or are still pretending you're living your best healthy life because it's the beginning of the year this place will be your jam. If you're like me though and can't stand all healthy options on a breakfast menu (some are cool) I don't suggest waiting in their annoyingly tiny waiting area. I'd also like to know what kids eat while they're dining here? I didn't see anything a child from the Midwest would be cool with eating on their menu. Do kids really like chia seeds? This review was written in stone as soon as I found out they no longer serve hazelnut coffee. I guess I'll have to drive out to Farmhouse. read more

I was introduced to my 1st First Watch in Orlando. We recently relocated to the Omaha area and were happy to find the First Watch on 147th & Maple. The food is awesome. The roast beef & havarti sandwich is fantastic! Prices are generally 10-20% lower than Panera Bread for equal or better quality and taste. Plus you can have a Mimosa or Bloody Mary for those tough mornings when something more relaxing than coffee is in order. read more

Ordered over medium eggs. They were delivered runny over easy. Ordered crispy bacon, again the bacon was delivered hardly cooked and opposite of crispy. 10 minutes later the waiter came over and I mentioned my disappointment and the comment back to me was..."yes that happens all the time" and walked away. I kindly gave them chances to make it right. They didn't offer. Gross food. Terrible experience. read more

Short on help. Not my problem. Food was VERYSLOW becoming. My breakfast came almost 5 minutes before my companion. My omlet was VERY bland & potatoes luke warm. Other order was same on potatoes & eggs on Benedict were NOT really done, should have sent back but waited TOO long already. .NOTHINg to make us come back & they must have known that as NO ONE asked how it was ONCE was enough. & THEY didn't seem t o care read more

Very good and consistent across all that I have visited. Can't go wrong with the Million Dollar Bacon, it's worth the trip by itself.

We love to eat here. The last 2 times though, the service was lacking. Today was worse than ever. We ordered things we didn't get. My eggs weren't even ordered the way I asked. They tried to deliver the wrong food because the waiter had put our table number on it. While it was kind of them to give us $2 off our next visit, it's only good M-F which means this teacher cannot use it after this day. Not for a long time. Maybe this summer we'll try again. read more
