    Honey Chipotle Chicken Hash
    Alycia B.

    Featured on the fall menu -- and let me tell you, it was soooo good! Light, hearty, and full of flavor, this dish was the perfect balance of comfort and freshness. Every bite was seasoned beautifully, with just the right texture and warmth that makes you instantly think fall perfection. The presentation was stunning, the flavors were layered but not heavy, and it left me wanting more. You can really taste the care that went into it -- it's one of those dishes that makes you stop mid-bite just to appreciate how good it is. Definitely a seasonal favorite worth ordering before it's gone!

    First watch has to be one of my favorite breakfast brunch locations. They have classic options, healthy options, and unique flavor creations that you will just want to revisit and try! I love that every location has an art piece dedicated to the area it's in. You can never go wrong with the million dollar bacon, it's a must for our table every visit! We tried their seasonal tangerine dream drink which was citrusy sweet and had a hint of ginger. We also tried their seasonal double bacon, Parmesan hash which felt like the perfect brunch meal , super delicious! I'm usually an iced coffee person but first watch has the best hot coffee and is the only place out order it, you can even take a cup to go! (Don't forget to ask if they have seasonal free stickers on your way out!)

    Sunday brunch. Definitely need to pass on this place. This location missed the mark all across the board. We were craving French toast. Decided to drag my husband to try it. He was skeptic but I talked to so good about the MI location he actually believed me. Lol. Oops! The moment we walked in, hostess greeted us. Got our name and number and maybe we were seated in about 10 mins. Not even 10 mins actually. It was quick. Service was a little slow. They were busy. We understood. I got my large apple juice and water. I guess the waitress missed my husband saying he wanted coffee. And about 5 mins into our meal he realized that he didn't have his coffee I guess the waitress didn't realized he ordered it. But she brought it out immediately. Food came out in a timely manner. All was really good. However, the least pleasant dish we ordered as an extra was the French toast that he was craving. Peep the picture below. It was burnt on one side on both the toasts. He's a real trooper for eating one slice of the toast but couldn't muster down the other. It was "burnt, crispy, and bitter." Even with the syrup. When the waitress came around and asked how our food was, we said it wasn't good. Showed her the toast and she didn't really do anything, all she said was "oh, wow. Is there anything I can get you?" She didn't offer to get us a new order or see how she can make this right? So we left it at that. We didn't care for another one anyway as this ruined it for us. We got our check, got up and went to pay for it. The lady that was at the register asked how everything was. We said not good. And she asked what happened, I showed her the picture of the French toast and after many many many attempts of us saying "it's okay, we were more than happy to pay for the full bill," she didn't want us to. She wanted to make it right. She went and got us a comp card and even took the French toast off the bill. We were more than appreciative. But we were more than happy to pay for the full bill and understood because they were busy and our waitress was "new" we didn't want the hassle. She was probably the friendliest person there. Feel like this place missed the mark across the board. Got a bit of attitude and looks from the other employees when we said our meal wasn't good. Like they didn't believe us. But we didn't cause hell or catch attitude. If anything, they caught attitude. Plenty of parking but in this plaza. But it can get easily packed too.

    This is one chain restaurant that has really never missed every time I have gone. I've gone to several locations now all over Florida and the food has always been decent and service quick. I really like the consistency!

    the breakfast here was tasty i got one of the specials and the iced coffee was good but very sweet. it was busy but we were served quickly but i didn't know who the server was because they switched so often.

    Just FYI: this location won't serve alcohol until after 0900. We arrived a little after 0815 and we were too early for mimosas. We were able to get a table before the Sunday rush. The server was nice but kinda forgetful. We asked 2 times I believe for water. I will say the servers didn't come around after we got our food. I was happy to get grits to my meal. The food was good. They haven't been able to get over medium eggs though. My eggs were more like over done. This place can get super busy during brunch time. I will say that they do keep this place clean and nice looking with all the traffic that comes here.

    Frittata and Two Multigrain Pancakes

    30 minute wait but totally worth it. Frittata was 6/10 but granola banana pancakes were 10/10 yay!! One of the better first watches around.

    Definition of a poached egg

    We were in the area and I had been to a different location that was actually pretty good so our group of 5 stopped into this location for late breakfast. My adult daughter loved the look of the double bacon parm hash. My 20 year old grandson also ordered poached eggs. Both plates arrived with runny whites. Daughter sent hers back and grandson didn't want to fuss so -he ate them. Second round of poached eggs were better but still not great. She grumbled and ate them anyway. Grandson got sick in their bathroom.. (couldn't have happened to a nicer bath.) Grandson spoke w manager and chef. Manager just apologized. He was fine the next day but that's not the point. They need to learn how to cook a poached egg or stop serving them.

    The service was good, there was no wait. The waitress was very nice, and the food was good quality. It had the usual farm house vibes that are good for brunch with the girls. My food was fresh and reasonably priced, will be back!

    The Works Omelette
    Brandon C.

    I'm team "eat breakfast for dinner" and First Watch is a great place for people like me. The servers are very friendly and attentive. They always made sure that my drink was full and came back to my table a couple times to ensure I had what I needed. The place was clean, well lit, and had very easy parking. The table arrangement was also good so it's very spacious while allowing for a high volume of customers. And finally, the food. I ordered the Works Omelette. It includes sausage, ham, mushrooms, tomatoes, and cheese. I asked for a side of potatoes and sourdough bread. It was really good and filling. Definitely hit the spot for a well made omelette. Even though the food was good, it's nothing out of the ordinary. It's a bit pricey for me, considering you could cook the foods at home and get the same results. Overall, it's a solid place with good food and would recommend to anyone who feels like taking the family out for brunch.

    We loved this place! The service was great and the food was excellent! There wasn't a single thing we ordered that we didn't enjoy. I would highly recommend this place if you are in the area!

    The place was very busy but we didn't have to wait long to be seated. The food came hot and my iced coffee was delicious. The place was clean and very cozy.

We only waited maybe 5 minutes for the coffee and only a few minutes more for the food which was brought out to our table. Looking around, it seems like this was the spot in downtown Baldwin for an early coffee due to many other shops not being opened yet. The crowd was middle aged individuals catching up on the news and enjoying the casual laid back vibes. The cappuccino was delicious. It was perfect for the chilly morning it was and went down smooth. The hot chocolate had a nice richness to the chocolate. The chocolate croissant was perfectly flaky so you know it was fresh. The breakfast sandwich had 2 huge eggs on it which made it very filling. The inside was cute and had a seating area that replicated that of the show "Friends" along with lots of coffee decor.
