We had such a great breakfast at First Watch! My husband and I ordered the Tri-Fecta with the Belgian waffle, plus a side of the Million Dollar Bacon and seasoned potatoes, and everything was delicious. I'm normally not an egg person at all, but even I loved their scrambled eggs. They were really, really good! There was more than enough food for the two of us to share, and the portions felt very generous. We also loved that the coffee came to the table in little carafes, so we weren't constantly waiting for refills. And flavored creamer too! For both of us, with two coffees, one meal, and two sides, our total was only around $30, which we thought was very reasonable. We're from Washington State, where it feels like everything costs a small fortune these days, so this was a pleasant surprise. We were greeted and seated quickly, and the restaurant had such a warm, welcoming atmosphere with really cute decor. It felt bright, comfortable, and inviting without being overly fancy. The bathrooms were also clean and nice, which is always appreciated. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, which is a great option. They're currently offering a seasonal fall menu, and several of those dishes looked amazing too. We may have to come back just to try them! Great food, generous portions, good coffee, cute decor, warm atmosphere, friendly service, and very reasonable prices. We would definitely eat here again! read more

Waking up this morning 1000 miles away and still wishing that I could come here, sit down with a pot of hot coffee and egg white omelet! We love First watch and always try to stop when in the area. This location is centrally located, clean, with an open/sunlit feel. Service is prompt and efficient. I love their hot coffee, it's some of the best I have ever had at a chain restaurant, their beans have such a great roast. I enjoy their healthy options such as the "healthy turkey" which is an egg white omelet with caramelized onion, spinach, tomato, and feta. Their multigrain toast and fresh jam are also simple yet so special. My husband loves the farmhouse bowls with a nice poached egg to sauce the morning potatoes and protein options in that bowl. Their seasonal options keep things exciting. While everything can't be pefect - I do wish they had some lower sugar cold brew coffee options but am fine with the quality hot coffee. Their pumpkin pancakes are available in the fall and I was able to get one as a side. I thought the pancake just tasted like a plain, good pancake; no pumpkin or spice flavor at all - at $9 for one pancake I would hold off on that in the future. I appreciate the sugar free syrup option though. Overall, First watch is a special chain that I wish would come up Upstate NY. This location has consistently good food, service, and a cozy feel that I highly recommend for breakfast, brunch/lunch. read more

I guess i had high expectations, but was not that great. I had the chilaquiles, the chips were pretty bad, the barbacoa was not real barbacoa, it was different type of meat, but the red sauce was very good! I ordered a side of french toast, but i really didn't like it, did not seem that fresh, also the texture was a bit off.. Upon arrival I was ignored. I was told to sit, and they forgot about me... with plenty of wait staff and open tables.. the actual server was really nice. read more

If you're craving a nice breakfast restaurant with just the perfect portions, First Watch is your place to go. But, depending on the day and time you go, just be prepared to wait a little bit. It will be worth it. We haven't been in a little while and there have been a few changes to the menu, but still delicious as always. We like to order the skillets but now they are called "hash" on the menu. Two eggs cooked the way you want over your protein or veggies of choice (only 2 selections now) and hash brown potatoes. Then don't forget the toast! Service can be a little slow but servers are working as fast as they can, and with a smile. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because of the price. read more

We had an excellent experience at this first watch location recently. Of course, we went on the busiest day a Sunday just after 12 noon. As you can imagine, it was exceedingly busy; however, the team at this location knows how to operate with calmness and friendliness, even under such busy conditions. I had the double bacon, Parmesan hash (seasonal item) and it was quite tasty and filling. My partners had the Belgian waffles and an egg omelette. I also had the tangerine dream, another seasonal item. Overall a good experience.. read more

I am not someone who usually eats at a chain restaurant when traveling but First Watch is a quality restaurant that certainly never disappoints for breakfast or brunch no matter where you are. This time I got it to go and wanted to shout out how thoughtful the staff was to ensure I had an enjoyable service with my food even though I was not present. I got the biscuit with turkey sausage gravy, which is already a bonus point because most places do not offer non-pork options for a dish like this. You can see with my photo that took the time to put the gravy in a separate container so it didn't get all messy and over the other food items of the meal (eggs and breakfast potatoes). I also ordered a side of buttered grits. It was a bigger side than I anticipated so I was able to get two breakfast meals out of this order! Highly recommend eating here (to go or on site). read more

Very clean, organized and welcoming! Shout out to NOAH , our service extraordinaire. He was professional, very kind and knowledgeable. A great willingness to help in any way he could, answered our questions concerning the menu. Quickly brought our drinks to the table and then took our breakfast order. Noah didn't miss a beat. I was very impressed!! The food was delicious all around. Our group of 8 was well taken care of, and we hope Noah felt our love back. Great experience read more

It's been a while since I've been to a First Watch restaurant. This restaurant chain never ceases to amaze me with their high quality and consistency. It's almost unfair to label it as just another chain restaurant the same way I would categorize Seasons 52 or McCormick & Schmick's. I tried their new Pineapple Express which was out of this world. They also have boozy brunch cocktails like mimosas for people who need an "eye opener" (you know who you are!). The SoCal Breakfast Hash is something incredible. Think of a breakfast skillet fajita hybrid. It was more than enough for 2 meals which is great for the road. If you've never tried First Watch you are missing out on something epic. They even sell their own cookbook next to the entrance in case you want to try to recreate their stellar menu. 5 stars all the way throughout including service and ambiance. read more

One my favorite breakfast place. I love to their juices, my favorite is BLT Benedict. I love with the salad or the potatoes. This place is always busy. They have a good thing going. I was visiting an event at the Orange County convention and use the yelp app to find the nearest First Watch. The staff were so nice. The food came out quick and hot. As busy as this place was they keep it nice and clean. read more

Being busy is not an excuse for completely ignoring guests. The front-of-house staff desperately needs retraining on acknowledging and greeting tables, even if the table isn't technically in their section. Basic hospitality was completely missing, and it made the whole experience frustrating and unwelcoming. We were left waiting over 15 minutes without even being greeted, despite multiple tables around us getting greeted, served, and even receiving their food in the time we sat there even though they got there AFTER us (table of two). There were three servers working in the area, and we still couldn't get so much as a hello or anyone to look at us so that we could wave them down. What's the point of being on the floor if you're not paying attention to your surroundings? Leads one to think they were purposefully ignoring since it simply wasn't their table it just wasn't their problem. We even tried to get the attention of two different food runners (or just other servers running food), but no one offered help even though it was obvious we hadn't been greeted, especially with the menus stacked in front of us with no drinks on the table. We were seated at a dirty table, but we stayed because it was a Sunday at noon and we understood they were busy. Choose another location, there's one palm pkwy less than 10 minutes away that gets it right every time. read more

This was really a wonderful find, worthy of five stars in my opinion! I had the avocado toast with salmon added, and my husband had the million dollar toast including a delicious honey bacon. My aunt had the million dollar special. All of these dishes were absolutely delicious. The service and presentation were wonderful. Very comfortable setting! We couldn't have found a better place for breakfast. read more

I've been to several First Watch locations in Central Florida. This is their newest location. It is located in the shopping plaza on Kirkman and I-Drive. The place was packed, as expected. The food and service were on par with other locations I've visited. I could tell that they were a bit short staffed. Our server (bless her heart) was super busy, running all over the place. But her service and attention was still top notch. This will be my favorite location from now on, since it is much closer to my residence. I had the super delicious Shrimp and Grits, which is a seasonal offering that I hope stays permanent. It is my favorite dish there. My Son had the Hacienda Hash and said it was superb. We also shared and order of Biscuits and Gravy (you gotta have this) and an order of Million Dollar Bacon (will probably not get the bacon again. It is good, but too expensive for 4 slices of bacon) We devoured everything. No leftovers. That's how good everything was. By the way, if you sign up for their email rewards program, you'll get a free entree on your birthday, Heck yeah. I just got hungry as I was typing this! read more

Sorry for just posting my review so late. We had a 45 minute wait time this past Sunday. This restaurant was really busy and rightfully so. The atmosphere was welcoming. The staff worked well together everyone was helping each other including Management. This is what I call a 5 star restaurant. We had an awesome server. Her name was Rachel she was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered The works Omelette and the Double Crunch Taco's. I must say the Double Crunch Taco looks better than what the menu picture shows and the taste is unbelievably delicious with lots of packed flavors. Every bite gets better and better. The Works Omelette was just as good with lots of freshness and flavor. Normally I take pictures but we were starving. We will definitely be back. read more

So many food quality and management issues no matter what time you go(burnt food, cold food, allergy items not facilitated, missing items, etc).You can absolutely tell that they are there for the paycheck and not their patrons(especially since they said to me that it didn't matter since it's "a bunch of tourists we'll never see again". I would rather drive a half hour to the location by my parents house then to drive the 3 minutes to this one. Hoping they adjust their approach and make it better for everyone to experience the brand. read more

One of the best breakfast places I've been to. Quite possibly the best toast I have ever had. Also the million dollar bacon was fantastic and tasted better than it looks, and it looks pretty good. Seemed a little pricey. I'm not sure farm raised eggs taste any better the eggs in cage. At least we know what the caged chickens are eating. Anyway the omelette was delicious. Coffee was good. My coworker had a breakfast sandwich. He cleaned his plate. Nothing was left. There was lots of seating. It's quite a big place. It's a little loud and there's not a lot of privacy. I would go back here in a heartbeat. Service was just fine. read more

3 days in a row. Fair to say my business partner and I LOVE this place! Out here in Florida for work and we discovered this awesome breakfast spot! Service was incredible all 3 days, food consistently yummy. Those potatoes, oh my! Suuuper clean restaurant, loving the ambiance and decor! The people out here in Florida are pretty damn friendly! As always! The second day we had Carlos as our server. What a delightful man! What a great server. It was so nice to be waited on by a knowledgeable, fun and efficient team member. That homemade toast is awesome. The overall food experience was super! If I had anything somewhat negative to say it would be the coffee. Not the greatest, not bad, but not the greatest. Good enough though where I had it for all 3 days! Thank you, First Watch! We loved your breakfast! read more

Coming from Texas I had never been to a First Watch but saw there was several in the area. The menu had all the basics and everything sounded delicious. It's clear they work with local goods and have a lot of healthy options. We didn't quite go that route, but ordered the Biscuits and Turkey Sausage Gravy (extremely flavorful) and the Chickichanga. Both were delicious and super large portions for the price. We arrived slightly before 9 where there wasn't a crowd quite yet but showed up quickly after we were seated. The only reason for the lost star was that we waited about 10 minutes before we had to flag down a waiter to get started. Must've got lost in the mix, but it made the wait for food and additional service a little slower than expected. Overall great experience and I'm sure our initial inattentiveness was a one off. read more

Had breakfast here before going to Magic Kingdom. We tried the brisket shishito hash and it was good, something different and yummy. Then we had the chorizo chili omelette - but i think they forgot the chorizo. My egg was just filled with onions. We told one of the servers and he offered to have it remade. Since we were in a rush, he offered to just bring some chorizo on the side and even comped the item. It was a very much appreciated gesture. The kids had their french toast, BLT with egg, roast beef sandwich, and club. Good place to have breakfast! read more

Our 1st time at any First Watch. We showed up Sunday morning after checking out of our hotel at 10am. The wait stated was about 45 mins. They had a nice size covered waiting area outside. They seemed to run a tight ship and the front of house seemed to work together as a team to keep everything going (3 people working it). We were seated within the 45 mins. Unfortunately, it was in a high traffic area - a 2 top by the front door, outside on the patio. There were people going in/out constantly. Our waitress had to ask the people at the table next to us to move to the waiting area as people were going to be seated at that table. She did a great job, was very polite and respectful. But I state this to point out this dining area becomes part of the waiting area when it is overfull. Additionally, there was a lot of trash in the bushes we were seated by (like silverware wrappers, etc). Our waitress was great. Our food was definitely something I would order again. And I saw many other dishes on the menu that I would like to try in the future. We will definitely try First Watch again but I will ask for better seating as that location was definitely a negative to our experience. read more

We arrived at just the right time as church let out and it filled up quickly.

Coffee was super hot, iced tea and orange juice fantastic. Food is a ten out of ten! What a win! read more

After a handful of encounters with poor service in Orlando, it was nice to come in to First Watch earlier today and be greeted by a kind staff. Ambiance was cute, light as hell with a cafeteria style feel. Our order was taken by Randell and there were two food items ordered -- out of which one came out as the wrong order (she wanted BLT Benedict, got ham classic one, human error things). The woman who ran the food was kind and took the dish to replace it, I was disappointed to see the way that it was handled by management. I was done with my food by the time hers came out, and Randall came by and asked if the food is "better now" after she'd received the correct dish. There was no accountability taken by management on the actual experience. People come in to spend quality time with one another and just need to hear that there was a fuck up and this is how we're gonna make it alright to create a better experience. In an instance like this, a kind gesture goes a long way. I don't even think this is on our server as much as it is on management to care to be involved on and help resolve. It's in the training. These moments can be a make or break for people on whether or not they'd want to return to an establishment-- please normalize accountability and conflict resolution communication training. It's an art craft that's often overlooked in service. read more

Love finding a First Watch on vacation! We got sat quickly using the app. Must try, near universal.

Horrible for the price. Expected great food might as well get takeout from ihop 5 mins away. Only asked for no green peppers in shrimp and grits and got no sausage no green onions and It said cheesy grits there wasn't even an ounce of salt or cheese. Disgusting. Overpriced for some cheap breakfast, even shrimp and grits im willing to pay for but come on and can't even give me the extra egg with cheese I paid for, for my kids meal. The only good thing was the service from the lady up front read more

First Watch - Pancake and omelette - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Just what you would expect from this popular breakfast chain. Upbeat atmosphere, fresh ingredients and a large menu. They always have season specials so I tried the brisket thinking it would be a high level corned beef hash. It was dry and I sent it back. Ended up getting the works omelette and it was delicious and stuffed with cheese, bacon, ham, mushrooms and tomato. My dad had the traditional breakfast with ham and the ham was delicious. We also had pancakes. I loved the plain and my mom loved the blue berry. Pancakes were huge and made fresh and tasted delicious. My mom loved the chicken sausage patties, but I was not a fan. They also have new cocktails including an iced coffee one with oat milk. The blood Mary looked great, but I tried the tequila sunrise and it was delicious. A perfect blend of juices and alcohol not too tart or too sweet. Our service was a little slow but they were packed. Overall, it was a good experience and I would return. read more
