    Stellar as usual. We've been to this restaurant in so many different locations and states, and it is without a doubt the most reliable restaurant chain out there. We love all the healthy choices. Everything is fresh and delicious. The service is usually way above par as well. We love that they have the online app so that you can join the waitlist when you leave the house. Really cuts down the wait time at the restaurant. These locations can be very busy on the weekends. We are huge fans of all of the coffee and other drink options. The food is wonderful for both the breakfast menu and the lunch menu. Everything is super fresh - never pre-cooked and sitting around getting cold. We have had some issues with side, dishes such as pancakes, grits and waffles coming to the table at room temperature but they are great about replacing the item. First Watch is always our first choice for brunch!

    Avocado Toast, Morning Meditation and pot o coffee

    Once again, First Watch goes delicious! Avocado Toast and a Morning Meditation wake me up (Orange, lemon, turmeric, ginger, agave nectar and beet) for a light intro to a hot and steamy day. Great ambiance, friendly service as always and the tunes were superb today. If you haven't yet, you gotta!

    My wife and I drive between Cincinnati and Tennessee a few times per month. The Richmond, KY exit (#87) has numerous restaurant options. We love stopping in for lunch at First Watch! We each order the Pecan Chicken Salad. Delicious!!! Our server today was Bri. Beautiful, adorable, humble, polite, and very efficient! For great ambience, service, food, and kind attention, stop by First Watch in Richmond, KY!

    Million dollar bacon

    Due to indoor dining being closed, a lot of places still offer outside seating and some are getting creative. First Watch in Richmond did an excellent job under the circumstances. Now First Watch is is Cafe chain restaurant, BUT breakfast/brunch is my thing, just never tried this one and after yesterday this location is one of my favorites breakfast/brunch chains. Plus they have healthy options and made to order. I had the farmhouse hash, my husband had the Parma hash and then we shared the million dollar bacon. If you live in Richmond , support this group of people. They are working hard and the food was great.

    My first meal out with my husband since the pandemic started and First Watch was a solid choice. There menu is varied with some choices that are more creative than your standard brunch fare. I was torn between the lemon ricotta pancakes and an omelette. In the end I went with the Chorizo and green chili omelette which was well prepared and tasty. The salad that comes standard as a side was overdressed which was disappointing. My husband had roast beef havarti sandwich with tomato basil soup. He LOVED both. We like First Watch and the food and service are reliably good. We will be back!

    Our second visit didn't disappoint. Very glad to have this place in Richmond. Very nice/clean environment. All the food is excellent and freshly cooked. They also have some seasonal options which is nice. My Chickichanga was awesome.
