    Breakfast tacos
    Greg P.

    As is typical for me, I like to wait until I have visited a place twice before I review. In this case, that was a very good idea, because my first visit to First Watch was not great. The food was bleh (though not terrible) and I really wasn't planning on going back unless someone invited me. Well, someone invited me and so I went back, though with very low expectations. I am very grateful for this visit, but it was excellent!!! I don't remember what I got the first time -- obviously forgettable. But this time I got the Million Dollar Harvest Hash and it was so delicious! The potatoes were perfectly cooked, as was the bacon and eggs (I got basted eggs). The combinations of the crimini mushrooms, kale and monterey jack, goat cheese, lemon-dressed arugula, and Mike's Hot Honey was like a party in my mouth. I ate lunch with a co-worker and he got the Chile Chorizo Omelet. He loved it! So great food and presentation over all. The staff as very friendly, though our server wasn't overly friend or bubbly. She was very focused on the work and I felt like my request for whipped cream for my coffee was an annoyance to her. Maybe she had lots of tables or just having a rough day. But, it wasn't a overly friendly service. That said, everything arrived on time and as ordered. The ambiance is comfortable and not too loud, even though the place was packed for lunch. All in all a great experience. The reason for the 4-star? Well, I can't help think of my first experience being about a 2-star at best. A dull experience. Also, the waitress doing her job, but not more than that. And the coffee is just gross. Watered down. Tasteless. There are some great coffee shops in NWA. Why can't they do business with one of them and have great coffee?! For those reasons, I took off a star. Recommended. I will return. I look forward to it.

    The coffee here is excellent, and the fruit juices are just as amazing! I tried the seasonal pumpkin pancake breakfast, which was good, but I have to say the chocolate chip pancakes are still my favorite. Definitely a great spot for a tasty brunch!

    Our service was the best! Keeley seated us right away, explained the menu, as it was our first time, and took our order right away. The food was served quickly. It was delicious and had great presentation. She checked on us frequently and offered us coffee or water to go. The staff thanked us as we walked out. Well done First Watch!

    Was in Rogers during the crazy snowstorm so just happy to find this place open. Enjoyed a brunch with co-workers and received fast and efficient service. All of the food was hot and well cooked. Really enjoyed the cheesy grits, surprisingly good for a chain restaurant. Overall, really enjoyed this hot meal on a cold day.

    Went here with my husband for the first time after church and only waited about 10 minutes for a table. Our server was super friendly, food was egg-cellent, and the place was very clean. I had the Elevated Egg Sandwich, which was yummy and filling. Love their potatoes (they have onions)! Husband had the Traditional Breakfast with an extra egg. They gave him so much food that he couldn't even finish his bacon, which never happens. We'll be back!

    There is a healthier choice of a breakfast. There are options and everything is so good. The only thing I did not enjoy was the churros they weren't what we are use to from been crunchy and that taste on the batter. Second try coming to a first watch restaurant.Our food was so good tasty and my coffee was amazing a grabbed a coffee cup to go. I enjoyed the pork sausage better than the turkey sausage, the chicken patties to die for so good.
