Love this place. It's quaint, small. Great for a friends meet up or a lovely couples date. Service is wonderful, food is amazing. The tradition and tri fecta and morning meditation are my go too's . You do have to check and see if there is a waitlist by looking on their app or website. That way you won't have to wait too long. I recommend you trying this place for breakfast, lunch or brunch as they do close at 2. read more

Very disappointed with our visit. We love First Watch, and we have been to multiple locations many times. Today was our first time at this location, but since we have trusted the First Watch brand, we didn't have any hesitations. The waiting list feature on the app was seamless, and we were seated right away. Our indoor table was the main problem. They sat us right next to the window with sun hitting us. My husband and I sat on the chairs that got more sun to protect our kids from the bright sun. By the time our food arrived, the harsh sunlight was directly on us and we couldn't even enjoy our food without protecting our eyes from it. The food (steak and eggs, syrup, waffle) wasn't even warm when they served it -- maybe they wanted us to finish cooking the food since we were sitting under the hot sun? When we voiced our concern about the sun, we were told that they'd usually move us to another table but the restaurant was just full. Our server told us that they've had issues with our table before -- so why keep that table open? It was supposed to be a peaceful Sunday brunch for our family, but instead we left frustrated and our kids were very uncomfortable from the sun. I voiced out my concern when I checked out and I got the same half hearted apologies. Please don't ever have anyone sit on that table when the sun hits it like that again. Oh, and the high chair my son was on had loose screws. That's a dangerous hazard. read more

Found our new favorite SA breakfast joint. Heck yeah! Located Inside a strip mall with plenty of parking. Luckily we put ourselves on the waiting list via their website. If not, the wait time was an hour at 11:00 am with walk up. Decor was basic. But, what was cool is they have two community tables for those who don't mind sitting with strangers. Food was amazing! A must visit for those who have never been. read more

Food is ALWAYS great AND filling! Ambiance is cozy and busy with laughter in the air: Great place for family outings, breakfast dates, friend catch ups! Service is very slow! I would have given 4 stars but Casey saved the day! She felt our frustration and just made everything better and was very attentive to us! read more

We love going to First Watch because the food is always consistent and the experience is reliable. On our recent visit, I ordered the Tres Leches French Toast. It was good, but I do wish it had been a bit more milky, as it leaned a little on the dry side. On the other hand, the Million Dollar Bacon was an absolute hit. It's always perfectly sweet, savory, and a must-order every time. Another thing I really appreciate is their waitlist option. It's such a lifesaver, especially if you have a little one. Overall, First Watch continues to be one of our go-to spots for a solid breakfast or brunch. read more

Service was impeccable. Thank you Serena for the delicious food and friendly vibes! Five stars all around!

Fabulous food! We had steak and eggs hash, and strawberry French toast. We recommend and will go back for more.

First Watch is my first choice for breakfast and brunch. The food is always good. I love the multigrain pancakes, million doller bacon and potatoes. They have a lot of seating options from 2 person tables to 10 person tables. And their decor gives the place a rustic homemade feel. My server, Karissa was amazing. She was quick to check up on everything and make sure I was enjoying my food. I'll definitely come back. read more

This morning I went to First Watch on Blanco. I feel like this is my favorite spot! Right now First Watch is falling with flavor! I've tried multiple things off the menu and have been delighted every single time. Today I had their Maple Bacon Croissant sandwich. Wow! When my waitress Ashley approached my table the smell greeted me. I took my first bite with the jalapeño on just to experience the full flavor. My eyes rolled back in my head from the perfect pairing of sweet and savory. I removed the jalapeño because it was a bit much for me. Every bite was as good as the first bite...maybe better. I love the helpful and thoughtful staff at this spot. I enjoyed the space of a booth and was able to freely eat and casually sketch. First Watch is a great way to get the day rolling. Fresh coffee, fresh hearty food, and amazing service await you. Enjoy! read more

it's was cute loved my waiter but ngl ts made me and my friends constipated and the food was not all that.

Came get for breakfast and it was amazing! I ordered the Classic Eggs Benedict but minus the tomato (I know not typical for a classic eggs benny) with a side of the Million Dollar Potatoes. The hollandaise sauce was perfectly creamy. Eggs poached beautifully. At first I wasn't sure about the lemon dressed greens as the side but I delightedly surprised at how well it really did pair. It's a rich breakfast so the lemon dressed greens lightened it up. That will be a new go to with this breakfast for sure. I loved the potatoes well. My wife got the Market Hash and it was soooo tasty. The goat cheese was creamy and added a delightful slight tang. The staff were fantastic and very friendly. I thought it was really cool that the table gets a carafe of coffee. read more

Came in on a holiday Monday and only had to wait 5 minutes for 920 am for party of two. Got my go-to pesto chicken quinoa (I do think compared to a year ago, the serving portion has gone down) but totally understand, because the flavor is still there! Love the blend of tomatoes, pesto, kale and chicken! The kids meal is the one my son always enjoys, he gets this huge chocolate chip pancake (which the table can share). This location in particular has multiple servers that check in and everyone seems to work hand in hand! Overall great experience! Dont forget to check in online ahead of time so you dont have to wait too long! read more

Not really a breakfast person but we were up early so we decided let's go get some breakfast. When we got there, there's only a few people inside as we were enjoying our meal. It started to get packed, which is always a good sign that that means people like to eat at these restaurants. Definitely has that breakfast vibe in there and they had it decorated for Halloween. The waiter was super cool very helpful when it came to helping us with the menu when I do eat breakfast at a restaurant I do like to always get eggs Benedict. So I got the classic Benedict which they add tomato to it. I'm not a big tomato fan, but I ate it with tomatoes on it was still really good. I added the billion dollar potatoes to it. Which has bacon Parmesan cream sauce with fresh herbs. I got my son chocolate chip pancake. My wife ordered a honey caramel crunch iced coffee, which was really sweet so if you don't really like sweet coffee, you don't get that one but if you do, that's your coffee. She got the Chickichanga omelette she said it was pretty good and she'd probably get it again, but it was their seasonal. All in all is a really good breakfast. I would definitely go back again. read more

First Watch, let me start off by saying that this place is typically packed on weekend mornings so be sure to plan accordingly and book in advance online. Upon entering, I entered and checked in with the hostess and was immediately seated as quoted online. Let's rate the service first. Our waitress was very attentive and assured our needs were met also empathized with an impatient toddler of ours so props to her! Now the food, ordered the Maple Bacon Croissant Sandwich, oh was it packed with flavor, the sweet apricot jam paired well with the pork sausage, crispy sweet bacon and melted cheddar all within a buttery croissant! Paired with seasoned potatoes for a fall farm flavor. My wife ordered the Pumpkin Pancake breakfast with bacon, the pumpkin pancake is full of fall flavor pumpkin hint perfect amount of sweetness and with an iced honey caramel crunch coffee for a beverage made for an exceptional breakfast! The atmosphere inside is a more of a country interior, family friendly and fast service. Overall great food and excellent service! read more

Food was decent. The potatoes and jam were good, everything else decent. Service was fast, perhaps too fast! We were halfway through the meal when our check was brought to us. It made the experience feel rushed truthfully. Ambiance is also decent, employees were friendly though. read more

My brother and I thoroughly enjoyed this place for breakfast. We ended up going here after my daughter's Air Force graduation. We were seated immediately after coming in and our waitress was amazing. She walked us through the menu and offered different options based on our dietary needs. This establishment is nestled in a strip of other stores and such! It was very clean and comforting. The bathrooms were very clean as well. If you are ever in the San Antonio area, First Watch is a must try! read more

I wish I could give a great review of their food, but we didn't make it that far. We arrived and were told the wait was 40 minutes, so we stood in their foyer as they have no waiting room and it was cold outside. After 10 minutes of waiting, from where I stood, I could count at least 12 open and cleaned tables and about 25 people waiting. I also watched what appeared to be the manager spent 5 minutes talking to 4 staff members while standing near the foyer. Why weren't they seating people? Who knows? I couldn't justify waiting while watching that kind of mismanagement. Hopefully, I will find time on a weekday to try again. Then again, I might just give my $50 gift card to someone I don't like very much! LOL! For what it's worth, we walked next door and had a nice Mexican food breakfast and were on our way home when we got the text that our table was ready at First Watch. Hope you have better luck than we had. read more

The food is always fresh and on the healthier side no matter what you order. Forget feeling guilty after a full belly for breakfast. This place is always tasty and the best part is they allow you to check in via app so you don't have to wait for a crazy amount of time. The servers are always hustling and making sure you have everything you need. It's always clean inside and never a bad experience going. The restrooms are always well kept as well. Enjoy your food!

First time at a FW and I walked out with mixed feelings. Ordered the Benedict Florentine which came out with uncooked spinach, raw slices of tomato on a hard to cut/eat bread underneath. Piece of avocado was spoiled on one end. Others at the table seemed pleased with their orders albeit different dishes so you decide. read more

This is the worst first watch location I've been to. The people there are very kind but I went there 5 times during my 2 month stay in San Antonio and only once did I have a good experience. Luckily, that good experience was my first there so that's why I kept going back, hoping I would get the same experience as my first. The first time I went to this location I decided to dine in. The wait was incredibly long and it was a hot day so I ended up ordering online for take out and my food was ready right on time. The next time I showed up, they let me know their wait time was almost an hour. So I decided to order to-go again and run some errands and come back. My order was not ready at the pick up time. It took 36 more minutes after pick up and they said it was because they were behind with the juices. So my eggs, potatoes and bacon were ice cold when I got it bc they refused to bring my food out until the Entire order was complete - including my drink. I would've been more than happy to cancel my drink off the order so I could have gotten my food hot. The next time I go there, the entire Air Force is there. Graduation day I guess. There was a long wait again and they asked me if I would like to order to-go. So I did and I was told about 30 minutes for to-go order. Again, I waited over half an hour OVER my pick up time for food. When I get to my hotel which was 3 minutes away, my eggs were cold, my potatoes weren't even cooked through and my bacon was burnt to a disintegrated crisp. Every time I went was a different day and different time hoping I could beat the crowds but this location must just be that popular. Due to that, their food is inconsistent and wait times are very long. read more

Im sooo disappointed! We go to First Watch in Austin. We expected much better service. i waited 10 minutes for WATER. Then they took our order. I don't eat carbohydrates so I order the works omelette and greens. I asked for extra mushrooms, extra onions and extra sausage. I wanted to add gruyere and avocado. They brought out the omelette with no extras and NO cheese! They also brought out toast after I told the waiter no toast-I even said NO carbohydrates. Just greens. I hate it when people don't LISTEN or follow directions. It took 10 more minutes to get my omelette because they remade the whole thing instead of just adding what was missing. Then they left off the sour cream. He was almost finished by the time I got my omelette. My husband got up to go to the bathroom and 3 waiters tried to take his plate-in quick succession. He wasn't finished! We felt rushed. I had just taken my last bite of greens-there was still some on my plate and here comes someone else offering to take mine. I don't care HOW BUSY you are-there is NO EXCUSE FOR CRAPPY SERVICE. Waiting 10 minutes for a glass of water is INSANE. When I inquired, I was told they had a lot of drink orders. RIDICULOUS! There is such a thing as too efficient. There are far too many waitstaff running around. Austin is just as busy, but it isnt nuts like this one. We will NOT be returning to this location. My Husband tipped $5 and that, in my opinion, was too much. read more

This was a solid inexpensive breakfast spot, I came on a Thursday with some friends and it was not that busy so they were able to accommodate our big group. I got an iced coffee and they had a promotion so it was only 2 dollars, it was pretty good. I got the Traditional Breakfast and loved everything it came with, it's pretty big so I took half of it home for later. The service was okay. I would ask the waiters for something and they would respond with "I'll bring it right up" and they never came back. It was simple things like syrup. read more

I've been here quite a few times, and typically love it. But the last visit was lacking in pizazz. My dining partner was non-plussed by his lemon ricotta pancakes. They were not as fluffy as he expected them to be. I ordered the Millionaire Bacon (brown sugar and pepper, sweet and salty). Our server brought plain bacon. Eventually I got my loaded stuff, and yes, it was as excellent as always. The overall experience was a let down that day after very positive visits over the past few years I have lived here. read more

Initial thoughts: Friday @ 12:45 walked in and asked how long the wait was and the lady told me about 10 minutes..... 25 minutes later still no text for my party of two. Finally after 30 minute wait... sat down and the table smelled sour. Waited 4-5 minutes at our table before we were greeted by our waitress. Menu has extremely small print so don't forget your reading glasses. This was NOT starting out very well. But my Italian sausage omelette with red peppers and tomatoes was wonderful and perfectly cooked The carrot cake with pecans pancake was NOT good, it was flavorless, dry and tasted nothing like a carrot cake but it did have carrots in it The farmhouse hash with egg whites was very good but they forgot the cheese and brought out cold cheese to add.... We asked if they could microwave it but she said they didn't have a microwave. (Hmmm) Our total assessment was pretty good, we loved our food, it was tasty, flavorful, great portion size and cooked perfectly. The million dollar bacon was good but i would rename it to quarter million or half million dollar bacon.... Its just thick cut bacon with cayenne pepper seasoning and syrup.... I LOVE BACON... but nothing about is outstanding.... Maybe they are talking about the cost. We always love the food here, its always perfect but this time it was the little things that disappointed me. read more

We made reservations online then arrived and waited 1.5hrs to be seated. I felt bad for three older women (one was using a walker) who had been waiting for 2hrs -- they ended up leaving to eat somewhere else.
