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.

The service is always good and the food is always hot and delicious. My only problem is having to…read moredecide between all the great choices. Breakfast is served all day and there's always great food on the buffet or you can order from the menu. If you like comfort food, this is the place to go!

I've heard it said before that if you want home cookin', then eat at home. I normally subscribe to…read morethis belief. It's one reason I don't go out for breakfast ~ I can make a pretty good breakfast at home. No use paying someone to do something I can do. So, going into Jackson's restaurant, a mom and pop restaurant specializing in home cooked style food, I had my doubts. Walking up to what resembled a school cafeteria lunch line only furthered my doubts. And, seeing the sheer number of different options sitting out behind the glass window only furthered my suspicions. Look, I was wrong. The food here is really good. The service is super friendly and helpful. I was so overwhelmed by all the choices I just told the lady behind the glass counter to pick me something. She obliged with a kindness that made me think she knew me somehow. She chose the chicken and dumplings, beef stew, apples, and two different types of corn bread. Now, I thought initially, and she even admitted, that the chicken and dumplings/beef stew mix was a little unorthodox, but that they were both so good I had to try them. Both were fantastic. The apples were awesome. I liked both types of corn bread. When I got up to leave, she called me over to the counter and said that since it was my first time there, I'd get a free dessert. You all, I was too full to even try. The food here is both tasty and filling. I was in Richmond for a conference at Eastern Kentucky University. So it was really convenient to stop by. But I'd say that even if you're remotely close, it's worth a visit. Don't, as I did, judge a book by its cover.
