    I tried the shrimp and grits special and to my surprise it was very tasty. I love shrimp and grits but everyplace can't make it. Nice balance with savory flavors of shrimp and andouille sausage. Service was kind but a little slow, I had to walk up to counter and get the check. Ambiance was cool and relaxed as well.

    Dining area with main lighting fixture

    As a small stop on our trip to see family in Missouri, First Watch has never failed to feel like home. The service provided by Luis at this location was top-notch, very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The dining room was very clean and the central lighting fixture was beautiful. We were seated as a party of four immediately due to checking in online. My wife enjoys the seasonal breakfast burrito, stating it has a bit of a kick in the spice department but it elevated the taste of the avocado/cheese/meat combination. My trifecta breakfast platter was especially notable for the warm berry compote that topped the powered sugared Belgian waffle, and the bacon was perfectly crunchy and salty. Very balanced meal between salty and sweet, a perfect breakfast combo. Thank you to Luis and the team for starting our trip off smoothly.

    Food was fresh and leaves you feeling great, I absolutely loved the chia seed pudding and almond butter artisan bread toast. The best part about this menu is that they give you a calorie count most places don't do. The server was quick with the food and drinks, served with a smile and only added a comforting feeling to the already lovely farm pathetic in the environment.

    We all know First Watch is solid. I think my favorite thing I've had thus far is the this summer special Carnitas Breakfast Quesadilla. So good!! And I love how the colors make it such a pretty dish. My nephews always get the chocolate chip pancake. Be sure to get the whipped cream smiley face! The service was great. Short wait.

    First Watch simply doesn't disappoint. All of the menu items always look delicious, it's so hard to choose what I want. They switch up the menu with the seasons so there are constantly new foods to try. I have never disliked one of my meals from First Watch. I also never feel gross and greasy after eating here which is how I feel sometimes leaving other breakfast restaurants. They offer breakfast and lunch - I've gone for both and it's allll tasty. The service can get a bit slow when they get busy. You can get in line on the app which is definitely the way to go on the weekends if you don't want to wait for a table. They're busy for a reason !!

    Cinnamon spice churros

    Recently stopped here for breakfast and our wait was quite long (and about 20 minutes longer than we were quoted, that being said - our server was very kind and gave good guidance on what food to order! Once seated, our food arrived quickly! I enjoyed the churros a lot and my sandwich was good. The butternut squash soup was not my favorite - I won't order it again and would not necessarily recommend it. It's a loud spot because of the small space, but is a nice spot to stop with the family for breakfast!

    Yummy bacon!
    Lyle M.

    The first time here and both, my wife and I were WOWED by not only the comfy feeling once we entered the restaurant, but the food itself, along with the service, was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, starting with a side order if their very tasty bacon! I then ordered the traditional breakfast, which included two eggs, yummy toast, crispy potatoes, and smoked ham! It was more than enough food and tasted delicious! My wife ordered the multi grain pancakes, topped with blueberries and bananas, greek yogurt, and berry compote! Very tasty, and we both would definitely return to this restaurant!! If you are ever in the Missouri area, they have numerous locations, and I would highly suggest you try any one of them!!

    First Watch is an award-winning breakfast, brunch, and lunch spot that serves up a chef-driven menu of elevated classics and seasonal specialties. As the sun rises, they slice and juice fresh fruits and vegetables, whip up French toast batter from scratch, and brew pots of their single-origin Project Sunrise coffee. Freshness is their mantra, and it shows in every dish.

    When I check out a new coffee place, I look for two things: Is the coffee "good" to my taste buds…read more(this one probably goes without saying) and can I comfortably sit and relax long enough to read or have a conversation? Upshot offers both, with a bonus of delicious food. We'd never explored historic Cottleville before, and I immediately appreciated the setting. The surrounding streets and buildings bare a slight resemblance to the charm of Vermont. On a recent nice, near-Spring day, my wife and I knew we had to take advantage of the outdoor seating. Serene with a mild breeze, we would have liked to sit and read for an hour or two, if time allowed. I almost always go for a red eye when I visit a coffee shop for the first time, but there are alot of appealing alternatives; I might have to try Maple Bourbon latte on a future visit. Being a major fan of breakfast food, I had to order the hearty Brake Shop burrito, packed with scrambled eggs, bacon, cripsy tater tots, and pico del gallo. It arrived quickly, hot, and even more filling and flavorful than I expected. Beyond that, Upshot offers an ample menu of other breakfast and lunch options; my wife ordered a Turkey Sando and custom-made iced vanilla latte with oatmilk. We don't get that many beautiful days in the midst of St. Louis winter; I'm glad I could spend one at Upshot's flagship cafe, and excited to see how their other locations compare.

    I came here randomly with a friend for quick breakfast And…read moreboy they didn't disappoint! Plenty of parking Nice decent sized cafe eatery The server recommended these two items that are pictured! And they are both too their the croissant waffle is something I've never had before it is *Chefs Kiss* The breakfast burrito was soooooo good it was loaded with everything you can imagine! The ambience of this place is clean clear and gives me a coffee shop restaurant type vibe I will definitely be back and it'll be hard to try some different things as good as these two items were! 10/10 I recommend
