We got there and it was packed, we were worried we would have to wait a long time. We didn't. We were sat within minutes. The waiter came right up to us and was attentive the whole time. We ordered the cinnamon toast drink and the morning meditation juice drink. So good!!! The restaurant parking lot was full, so it seems it gets pretty crowded over in that area. Took us a min to find parking. The vibe was fancy diner aesthetic. Food was delicious. read more

This is my first review of First Watch after many visits, including a return visit yesterday. As usual, the restaurant was busy around noon, but the wait was manageable. The hostess estimated a wait of less than 15 minutes, and we were seated right on schedule. The atmosphere was lively without being overwhelming, making it easy to enjoy a conversation. Our waitress was courteous and attentive throughout the meal. While we did have to request a few items, which suggested she may have been juggling several tables, she remained friendly and diligent, promptly clearing plates as we finished. For lunch, I ordered the 2-for-You special with the Monterey Club and Chicken Avocado Chop Salad. Presentation wasn't particularly impressive, but fortunately the flavor was better than the appearance suggested. It was a satisfying meal and a solid value for the price. Overall, First Watch remains a reliable brunch option. While I may opt for takeout on my next visit, the food, atmosphere, and efficient service keep it on my list of local go-to spots. If you're in the area and looking for a dependable brunch destination, it's worth a try. read more

Listen- First Watch was my first stop when my brother in law wanted brunch and I'd been at this location when it first opened. I was excited to see this chilaquiles breakfast bowl since I've had the dish in Mexico, Texas and I've made it myself several times.... The service was slow. 1030 on a Monday morning, it was pretty busy and they're seemed to be a good amount of staff, but still a wait on things and repeating requests. When this playe came to the table- I should have sent it back.... The black beans were room temp and had zero flavor- i think that's where the extra liquid came from. I asked for my egg over medium- did NOT get that. The chips and sauce itself were ok..... Maybe it's bc it's new- I think they should remove it- doesn't seem to have the execution quality of the other things on the menu. I wish I'd ordered an omelet or pancakes. read more

Got out for coffee and came to First Watch for a nice breakfast after coffee at Luce's next door. Was not disappointed, got in at the prefect time around 8.30 in the morning.Quite a few tables were taken but there was still plenty available so the wait time was almost nil- good thing for us. I took half and half all day lunch with the tomato basil soup and salad. The menu said that salads came with a toast, so I asked for it and Kevin promptly got it for me with one side nicely buttered. My partner got his omelette plate. Kevin was very cheerful, friendly and ready to help. I would give his service 10/10. Neatly maintained, ambiance is simple yet welcoming. The bill can be paid at your table with a QR code, or at the front desk, these are the only 2 options. QR code payment is the new thing catching on.... technology ! Quite a few vegetarian options. What they stand out for is their drink options- boosters, kale infused , flower infused etc etc , but they do carry the regular coffee options as well. Note: they open early but close by 2.30 pm everyday. Want to try, come early read more

My cousin and I took our kids to eat a late breakfast on Sunday around 11 am. It was very busy and the wait was as expected. Our server was nice. I ordered the biscuits & turkey sausage with scrambled eggs (gravy on the side). My kids ordered the French toast with turkey sausage & chocolate chip pancake with turkey sausage from the kids menu which also includes a drink. The biscuit was soft and fluffy. I'm usually hesitant on gravy which is why I requested it on the side but I ended up finishing it all! The potatoes were cooked perfectly. The kids also enjoyed their meals. The restrooms were clean and well kept. Overall, it was a good experience! read more

March 2026. Came in at 11 on Sunday. The wait was about 20 minutes. The noise level is quite high here. Even though it was busy, our server Dayana was fast and efficient. The food was tasty. I had the vacado and hubby had a chile chorizo omelet. Both were delicious but hubby said he would have asked for extra chorizo. read more

This place is great. I really appreciate the fact that the dishes are farm to plate. My favorite dish is the biscuits and gravy. Even though it is turkey sausage, I couldn't tell the difference but it was still delicious. read more

Came to eat at this location this morning and sit for 20 minutes with no contact from any waiter. No water, no "I'll be with you in a minute". Multiple Waiters passed and said nothing. Not sure what is happening. Haven't seen this before. Not too service oriented. read more

food is great! unfortunately the service is not. we had a table of 8 and one person had to wait 10 minutes after everyone else's food came out for her order, and it wasn't even the right order. our waitress was not nice about it either, she seemed very annoyed that SHE messed up our order. another side was forgotten and never came out. the hostess was pretty nice and accommodating, so that was nice. i will not be coming back here. read more

Service was mid at best. Our server was very nice but it took 25min to get our starter and a different server was walking around to every table but ours asking if they got the holey donuts. We had to flag her down. The same thing actually happened with our meals. The wait online was zero minutes but when we got there it was 25-30. We waited 15 so that was nice. The food was good as it usually is! read more

Service is too notch with great tasting and fresh breakfast food. Our server notice my flatware was taken with the appetizer. So right when the entree was served. She had a nee set ready to go. So observant to take care of that without needing to be asked. That is great service. read more

Drinks: Cinnamon toast cereal milk: 10/10. Absolutely delicious. Perfect for a coffee drinker. Purple Haze: 10/10. Always a hit. Food: Million Dollar Bacon - 10/10. Highly recommend if you love sweet/savory. Trifecta with scrambled eggs. Substituted the meat for an extra egg since I always get the million dollar bacon as a side (comes with 4 if you do it like that vs 2 if you use it as your meat side). I add pecans to my pancakes and honestly... It's really good. 8/10. I wish it was buttermilk pancakes. My stars come from what I ordered. Not necessarily the service because it's different every time I come. The food however is consistent. This is a breakfast place so this is not a turn up for brunch. Wear casual clothes. Ambiance is breakfast appropriate. read more

Lilly was absolutely amazing! She was super sweet, great company, and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish.

Brunch with the fam is always a treat! First Watch did not disappoint. I enjoyed my pancakes with bacon and grits. My aunt especially enjoyed the Million Dollar Bloody Mary.

I have taken my family to this First Watch a few times. I could take it or leave it, but they love it. The girls absolutely love the chocolate chip pancakes. When we order them it has to be with no butter because that apparently ruins them. My middle daughter has tried the biscuits before, but they aren't that great, kinda dry and she doesn't like the crumb of them. So, she doesn't ever try anything but those Chocolate chip pancakes. The little one will sometimes get a waffle if she's in the right mood. She seems to really like those too, just with no butter. My son will usually get the pancakes with eggs and bacon. He can't get their fried eggs because they never cook them enough. He doesn't like it with they're too runny. So, he sticks to scrambled eggs now. He has also complained that the bacon is never crispy. They are known for soggy bacon. I share that thought with him. The bacon is never cooked well. It reminds me of precooked microwave bacon. Which actually gets crispier than the bacon they cook here. The coffee is hit or miss too, sometimes it's good, and sometimes it's super bitter. I don't know. I don't want to come back here but these kids like it so, we will probably be back. The service is usually always ok, but it gets so busy on the weekends. I usually never want to wait that long for a mediocre breakfast. It's five of us, so we always end up waiting a while. It's cooling down now so at least we could wait outside. There is only a bench and a couple of chairs to wait in the front. There is also a bar inside that you could sit at, which would be ok if it were just my husband and I. read more

I'm not sure if I have rated a place this low. None of the food was worth a picture. The potatoes were super soft almost like boiled potatoes but I will say it was seasoned fair. I got the elevated egg sandwich it was served with the yolk on the outside of the sandwich which was off to me. There is only 2 pieces of bacon on the sandwich so I orded extra from their side menu which was the Million Dollar Bacon. I'm pretty sure, if not the bacon, something on it was expired. I took one bite and my stomach immediately went into sour mode and I could not finish the rest of my food. I informed the waitress and she stated she told the staff and she removed tge Bacon from my bill. The service was not that great. I do not remember the waitress name because I don't think she told us. She didn't have a name tag on so we couldn't see it later. I asked for water and coffee. Got the coffee pot but no cup. She had drinks for another table then took their order and went back into the kitchen. Another waiter was passing by and we asked him for a mug and he brought it over. When our waitress finally came back I politely told her that she gave me the coffee but no mug and she was about to walk off to get a mug that I now had. Literally proved the lack of attention she pays to her customers. I did get the water midway of me eating. The place is actually cute except when I looked up and saw what could be dust, stains, and or mold. Either way, ai was glad to be leaving and will likely not visit here again. I have included the pictures of the ceiling view... read more

I've eaten at several First Watches and been happy every time. The breakfast tocos are a good choice. The chalula makes them even better. I had a side of grits today and they were very disappointing. They needed a bit more water. My girl took away the cooks southern card! Marquel was a very friendly server. I will request him again. read more

Enjoyed a nice brunch outing today, our server Pavel was out standing! The food & service was 10/10 as usual! By far the best First Watch

Tammy was a great server and my food was really good. I appreciate their gluten-free options! I have never had a reaction from cross-contamination. They have always taken great care of me. Also, bonus, we were seated as soon as we walked in. For reference we came in on a Friday at about 8:30am. read more

Came here for a brunch. We put our wait list down online so that we didn't have to wait as long once we got there. We were seated right away which was nice. Our waitress was okay. Not very attentive. She took our order. We had asked for some substitutions and to not have certain things added. But of course when we get our food they were not made. The waitress never checked to see if everything was okay and was honestly no where to be seen. Not sure if we would go back just from that one back experience on its own. read more

Today's visit was not great at all. My iced coffee had a spoiled taste. Food was not coming out smoothly, only revived half my order. Our waiter did not even offer us refills during our meal. I understand that sometimes places can be short staffed at times but this was not acceptable. Not once did someone come check on our meal or experience. read more

About an hour wait for a party of 9 on Memorial Day Monday, but that was the quoted time at a few other restaurants. Service was good for a busy day. Staff is friendly. Parking was plentiful. Cold brew was not strong enough. Parma skillet was delicious with over easy eggs. Carrot and pecan pancake is kinda dry. Banana pancake is better, more fluffy. The multigrain bread served with every dish, so good!! read more

Don"t you just love to brunch?! A mix of breakfast and lunch usually appeals to all foodies, and First Watch certainly delivers in this area of thought! A friend of mine hadn't seen me in over a year due to life lifing, so we decided to meet up here upon my recommendation. This is not my first visit to an FW but the first time dining in this location. I was shocked that for a Tuesday morning before noon, the place was pretty packed. I wouldn't dare come at 11 on the weekend- you're going to wait! My friend had her mini me with her, so I dipped in and checked in while she parked to get a table. The hostess was very sincere and accommodating when I informed her that we needed a booth since my friend had a baby carrier. No worries - the hostess peeped a table that was about to be vacant and said to give her a few minutes to prepare it. Sure enough, by the time my friend walked through the door, the hostees had our table ready and even gave insight that one side of the booth had a little more width to fit the carrier. Nice! We thanked the hosttes for her accomodations for sure. Our waitress, Gracie, was just as hospitable as our hostess. She made sure our beverages were brought promptly to the table, kept the coffee kettle nearby so I could refill my cup of joe accordingly (and I had two cups which is never my thing, but it was so good, I had to have a 2nd cup), gave recommendations on entrees, and even went to the kicthen to get the mosy accurate vegan and vegetarian entrees for my friend. She really went above and beyond to make our dining experience enjoyable, which is so appreciated! On top of attentive service, the kitchen executed delicious dishes with probably the same attentiveness. The quinoa bowl was decorated nicely with slices of avocado minus the chicken and cheese for my friend. I only subbed my toast for gluten-free toast with the Works Omelet entree, which I decided to pair with a bowl of cheesy grits. Can you say fat full because I was! The omelet contains three meats along with some veggies. Portion size is huge, so after eating my gluten-free toast with the jelly, only half that omelet could be eaten. Grits were definelty cheesy - maybe too chessy even for a cheese lover like me, but it may be because I have cut down on eating cheese and milk chesse at that. Still a delicious, decandent, and fulfilling meal the next morning. You can't beat the food, welcoming atmosphere, and the portions for the price you pay for dining here. No wonder FW was packed on a Tuesday - it should be your first choice when dining for brunch in Pearland. read more

Starting off with: I rarely complain about anything. I also, normally enjoy First Watch in Pearland. Today. Not so much. Service: this is my primary disappointment. Service was slow and It was not clear which server was responsible for my table. A young man gave me coffee and said he would take my order when he returned. After 15 or so minutes, I asked a young lady to send over my server. She said it was her section even though she had served the tables on each side of me and had not acknowledged me at any time. As soon as she walked away with my order, the young man emerged, saying he had been busy with online orders. Food: food was fine BUT, I took my morning meditation juice togo. somehow whoever made it -forgot to add something. It was very sour. Luckily i had some apple juice in hand, which saved my juice. Ambience: none of the staff looked happy. Not sure whats happening here. read more
