Totally a taste of the SF Bay Area.. amazing food great prices and kick ass staff. :)

The menu is large but nothing really sounds good. Got the seasonal cinnamon chip pancake. It was good but the scrambled eggs were way over cooked, the bacon was way over cooked. My husband got the biscuit and turkey sausage gravy with seasoned potatoes. The gravy really just looked and tasted like leftover turkey gravy from thanksgiving and the turkey in it didn't seem to be sausage. His eggs were also over cooked and his potatoes were undercooked. Probably won't be back. read more

Often very busy but good food and service. We've sat at our own table and also tried the community table (for faster seating) and my wife and I had good experiences either way. It can be a little loud but we were not especially put off by that. read more

We love this place! It's consistently good and the prices are right. I love how you can "get in line" on their app too so you don't have to wait long when you get there. read more

This is probably one of the best breakfast joints in Springfield. The service was great and extremely kind. And our meals were outstanding. Our family will be back! read more

Personally, this establishment makes no sense. I can get a dozen eggs from the store for $1.50; who gives First Watch the right to charge me extra because "free range" eggs are "better" (no different at all). It's an absolute scam. Why not just call everything free range? Today our special is a free range piece of bacon from our fittest vegan pig. I think this establishment needs to think long and hard about how awful their food is, and try to come up with a solution. read more

My favorite place for brunch. Great service and amazing food. I use the yelp app and put my party on the wait list so we get seated quicker. I love the fact that you can wait in your car and they will text you once your table is ready. Just dont forget to check in with the hostess before waiting in your car. read more

This is hands down the best breakfast place in town! They service is always friendly and quick, but the best part is the food. Everything is SO fresh, and I'm not saying that lightly. They have completely full portions for the price and honestly the best tasting food. There's plenty of healthy options and non healthy so everyone can eat here. 15/10 recommend. read more

This is one of those places that cares more about appearances than it does quality. Everything is 'fresh' and unique but I also found it to be quite lacking. My boyfriend and I ate here for breakfast a couple of days ago. We had been wanting to try it for a while but the place is always so crowded with lines out the door. Their wait wasn't too bad I will say. They have a coffee station set up and will even text you when your table is ready. Their coffee is dark though, heads up. Much darker than I care for. My boyfriend, however thought it was great. Their menu is really interesting. Which was good because they were so busy our waitress couldn't take our order for like twenty minutes. Lots of fun and unique breakfast items. I ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes with a side of seasoned potatoes. My boyfriend ordered the chickichanga which comes with potatoes and a side of fresh fruit. The pancakes were so flat. They had no flavor. It was like eating air. They were advertised as being topped with marinated berries which turned out was just sliced strawberries. Pretty disappointing. I would say they were maybe a little overcooked or whipped or something. I just did not enjoy them. My side of potatoes was brought to me barely cooked. They were pretty firm and very cold. After complaining they came back much crisper, but that couldn't make up for the gallon of seasoning salt they were topped with. I asked for a glass of ice water with my meal but they dont have ice. They have special chilled water they bring out in a fancy glass bottle. It's 100% tap water. I mean you could smell and taste that it was. The chickichanga was pretty good except for the weird sauce the top it with. And they're side of fruit was served in a little thimble. We also ordered from the fresh juice bar. I got the red medicine and my boyfriend got the one with orange juice and ginger. They were okay. The meal cost us about $40 plus tip. There are better options for breakfast in Springfield in my opinion. If I am going to pay so much money for a nice upscale healthy and fresh breakfast I think it should be quality. I don't usually spend more than $30 on my breakfast with the tip included. read more

See all

The food is always delicious and I love that I can check in to the line before I leave my house on the app. Bonus points for having coffee and water available while you wait. read more

I really like eating here. The food is always great & fresh ingredients. It is only open for breakfast & lunch but they do have a variety of dishes to choose from. Service was excellent from the time you walk in until you leaves. read more

We came back to one of our favorite breakfast spots and had excellent service and food. Our server, Tyler was professional, personable and prompt! We appreciated his service and conversation on a Thursday morning! read more

This is our favorite breakfast spot, friendly staff and high quality food. Also texts you when your table is ready so you don't have to wait inside. Incredibly helpful when having a toddler read more

My wife and I come here almost every Sunday for our couples breakfast! We absolutely love it! The carnitas burrito and the broccoli cheddar soup are huge favorites! We came in today, 10-11-20 and had the best server! Tyler was so helpful, kind, and the sweetest! The whole staff there is always super welcoming and the vibe is always inviting! We never go home hungry! Tyler was by far the best server we have had, he was incredibly helpful and informative! We will definitely be back! read more

Gabriella was a wonderful server! She was warm and friendly. Our service was quick but we didn't feel rushed. Soooo worth the drive from Forsyth ! read more

I've been here a several times for lunch and am always pleased I came. Although it's very busy at lunch you can usually get a table with in 5-10 min. The service is always top notch and they have a good verity of food. read more

Absolutely great! Everything tasted very fresh and was just delicious. They had a 30 minute wait, but we got in within about 15 minutes. The cold pressed juices are great! Highly recommend read more

Great service and great food. It's super pricey but it's honestly worth it because it's such good wholesome meal

First watch and FIRST CLASS! Great service combined with interesting takes on omelettes and egg dishes, leaning toward Mexican and Italian as well as traditional, make this a wonderful, tasty and leaning toward healthy food. Will definitely return! read more

First time we ate here was a five star. Second time wasn't as good. Food dropped a little service was much slower. Place was packed so that maybe part of it. Avocado toast was the best thing I have had there read more

One of the best choices we've made was First Watch. Enjoyed a veggie omelette and chocolate chip pancakes. Everything looked good and, from the looks of the tables around us and their orders, one just can't go wrong. Very pleasant folks working here add to a great experience. We liked that they put water and coffee on the table for you to refill as you need. read more

This place keeps the air conditioning at a subzero setting, they say it's because of the glass atrium. You could hang meat in there. Warm food is soon cold & tasteless. The prices are high & selections are strange "clean eating" organic options that most people don't eat. read more

Way over rated for a breakfast place. Long waits, you can't get normal foods...who puts bland ground turkey into biscuits and gravy???? It was gross. Service was much better than the food. If you plan on eating here I would recommend sticking with things that can't be messed up, like plain eggs, toast, and bacon. read more

I brought my mom and baby here for a nice lunch today and we sat near the kitchen. The food was fine and the service was ok, but not overly friendly or helpful. However, the language coming from the kitchen was horribly offensive. I heard one of the cooks dropping the "F" word multiple times along with other curse words. This was done in a very loud and boisterous manner. I understand that this young man may speak like this outside of work. However, there is a time and place for everything and it was highly unprofessional to speak this way when customers can hear. My family and I do not enjoy hearing such language when we are trying to have a nice lunch. I will not be returning. read more

Great food with a great atmosphere. Service is also very good. Only con is if you want breakfast on a weekend you better get there with plenty of time to spare. Very busy place and the waits can sometimes be an hour for a table so just be wary of that. This is why is a 5 star place in my eyes. read more

This building is aesthetically please on the outside and on the inside! The food is WONDERFUL!! The food is healthy!! The staff are super friendly. Sometimes there is a small wait to get in and that may bother some people BUT the food is well worth the wait and I love it!! read more

This restaurant was recommended by our waiter from the previous night. Needless to say we were not disappointed. Portion sizes were huge, service was wonderful, food was fresh! read more

Went to eat for Mother's Day but then left because The cooks and servers We're not wearing masks or gloves as they were preparing and serving the food. Very disappointed. read more

By far the worst service I had ever experienced. Food was ok, the server had an attitude and slammed everything down that he touched on the table. My wife asked for a to go box and a cup to go, he rolled his eyes and walked off. While waiting I spilled coffee on myself and s waitress who was less than 2 feet away turned and saw the mess I had made. She turned around and continued visiting with her friends. Luckily a bus boy saw this and helped us out. Still waiting on to go box and cup we looked up and our server was sitting at a table eating with coworkers we noticed that he had watched the bus boy help us out and didn't offer any assistance. Never going back. Told several people not to go to this place. Too bad you can't give no stars. read more

The food and the atmosphere are pretty great. The staff and our waitress were so sweet and helpful. We had never been here before and had lots of questions. Such a great healthier option here in Springfield and the portions are nice too ;) especially if you love food like I do :D read more

Awesome food. Awesome environment. Awesome service. Get the Million Dollar Bacon and a blueberry muffin! Very enjoyable experience. Only wish it was right next door so I could visit more often. read more

So I know avocado toast is totally trending lately BUT this spot quite literally has The.Best.Avocado.Toast.Eva! Omg thinking about it is making me salivate! It must be the evoo or some magic they've added to make it awe-mazing!! Prices are kind of higher than what you'd get at McDonald's for breakfast, but... you get what you pay for! I love the farm house-esque decor inside btw! read more

Amazing service! Clean restaurant. Delicious food. Be sure to try the kale tonic. Sooooo food

Very delicious! Would strongly recommend if looking for fresh and healthy without being over priced. Fresh coffee plus loved the craft of water/tea on the table for refills. It is a chain cafe with quick service. We did get there at 1:30pm so no wait and food was made fresh with great presentation. read more

My boyfriend and I went here for the first time today, and let me tell you-its amazing. Boyfriend had the trifecta, and he ate it all- doesn't happen too often. He loved the bacon and the berry compote that comes with the waffle. I had the breakfast tacos, and I'm still daydreaming about them! Our server was Jayce, and he was very knowledgeable of the menu and very helpful! He even convinced us to get the banana nut muffin which was no mistake either!! Really good food here!! read more

I love everything about this place! So far, I've been here three times. Tried something new each time; has yet to disappoint. Each time, I loved our sever. Very kind, knowledgeable, and efficient. I love their focus on health and sustainability. I recommend this place to all my friends and family. read more

Great service and food is great as well. They are always out of the million dollar bacon so we haven't gotten to try it yet. That's the only pit fall and not fresh creamer for my coffee. Give it a try :) read more

This was by far the best breakfast place I have ever eaten in. The decor was our style - the food - very fresh, very healthy and service was excellent. Everything was perfect! A must for anyone looking for a very healthy breakfast place! Wish we had this in the northeast. read more

Overhyped; menu items too shi-shi; not like the First Watch I remember in KC. No made to order omelettes? Really? 1/2 & 1/2 packets on table vs a pitcher of cream - lame for a restaurant that is trying to serve upscale breakfast This place probably won't last long without rethinking their menu...Can't imagine too many repeat visits. read more

Great food and great service! Very popular, so be ready to wait, but it's well worth it!
