Loved loved the new First Watch in Woodmore. The space is beautiful and light. A great place to enjoy brunch/lunch with my mom and sister. Please pack your patience! The restaurant does not accept reservation, and wait time was about 40 mins. Our service was amazing. I ordered the waffle and bacon omelet. I highly recommend ordering the Belgian waffle!!!

I really wanted to enjoy the new First Watch in Largo, but unfortunately our first experience was chaotic enough that we decided not to dine. My guest and I arrived around 11:30 a.m. Sunday, knowing it was peak brunch time and that First Watch doesn't take reservations. We were quoted a 60-90 minute wait for two, yet a significant portion of the dining room was unseated. We overheard staff discussing being short-staffed, and guests attempting to order takeout were also being quoted long waits because the kitchen was backed up. The restaurant simply seemed overwhelmed. To make matters worse, I visited the restroom and found vomit left on a toilet seat. Between the staffing issues, backed-up kitchen, partially empty dining room, crowd waiting to be seated, and restroom condition, everything felt disorganized. We eventually went elsewhere. I checked in at 11:37 a.m. and didn't receive the text to return to the host stand until 1:15 p.m., nearly 100 minutes later. By then, we had gone to Silver Diner down the street, waited, ordered, eaten, paid, and left. I understand new restaurants have growing pains and Sunday brunch is demanding, but that makes adequate staffing and operational readiness even more important. If demand consistently exceeds capacity, management may need to reconsider staffing, waitlist procedures, or even reservations. I'm giving two stars because we never actually tried the food, so it wouldn't be fair to judge that. I'd still return during the week or at a less demanding time because I want this location to succeed. For now, though, a nearly 100-minute wait while portions of the dining room remain unseated, combined with kitchen delays and restroom cleanliness issues, is simply not the first impression you want from a brand-new restaurant. read more

First Watch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Upper Marlboro, Maryland

So glad this finally opened in Largo, it needed a good sit-down breakfast/brunch spot in the area! Went during their first week and the food was consistent with other First Watch locations I've been to, which is exactly what you want. There was a long wait but luckily there was bar seating available. The blueberry pancakes were delicious, easily one of the best pancakes I've had recently. The apple chicken sausage patties were also a standout, great flavor. And the juice tasted freshly squeezed, you could really tell the difference. Only minor note is service was a bit slow, but that's understandable since they've only been open a week. Every new restaurant has some kinks to work out, and I'd chalk this up to normal growing pains . Will definitely be back to see how things are once they settle in! read more

This location recently opened. It is huge and spacious. Service was great and food was served hot. Drinks were delicious. The wait is still about an hour and not enough staffing but that's normal for First Watch. read more

I didn't eat here so I can't rate the food. I have an allergy. The server quickly dismissed it and tried to placate me by saying it was havarti. Basically she wasn't listening to me and didn't have a clue what the item actually was that I am allergic to. Instead of getting an understanding she was curt and dismissive. My allergy has landed me in the hospital before. Therefore, I didn't feel comfortable eating here. read more

Could not have picked a better spot to take my grandfather to breakfast for his 90th birthday. We only waited about 5 minutes to be seated. Taelor provided amazing service and the food was just as good. We both got the trifecta w/ Belgian waffle. They even gave my guy a free blueberry muffin w/ a candle on a happy birthday plate. Will definitely return to this new location. Be sure to get here as early as you can, as the later it gets the wait can be longer. It'll be worth your wait nonetheless. read more

My husband and I are on vacation and tried First Watch for the first time. We loved it! I got the Avocado Toast with 2 eggs, and bacon. My husband got scrambled eggs, bacon and potatoes. I tried the potatoes and they were yummy! We got excellent service, and I loved the way it looked inside. It was very cozy! We would definitely go to one near us sometime in the future! read more

They could be better at responding to customer's concerns. I cancelled an online order. It took 3 phone calls for 5 days to get them to take action and then 5 days for the refund to hit your account. This is for the BOWIE LOCATION read more

Horrible customer service! As soon as I entered there was a line meeting me at the door. This line was filled with people waiting to speak to the hostess to either be seated or placed on the waiting list. There was only one hostess and she was clearly overwhelmed. I would recommend they have at least two hostess at a time to relieve the line at the door. While waiting in the line there were people seated that were waiting for their tables however there were plenty of available tables. Once seated the family next to me stated they've been waiting for a long time just to have a server come to the table to greet them. After waiting at my own table for 5-7 minutes I decided to leave and within that time I was never greeted by my server as well. read more

I arrived at 2:15 p.m. and waited for 10 minutes without being greeted or acknowledged. At 2:25, I was finally told that I needed to go to the bar to be served. Once I got there, a young employee informed me that service was already finished for the day because they closed at 2:30. I understand that I arrived close to closing time, but the lack of awareness and communication was very disappointing--especially since I was clearly standing there waiting to be served. Had someone acknowledged me when I first arrived, this situation could have been avoided. I love the First Watch franchise and was excited to try this new location. Unfortunately, this experience fell far below the level of service I have received at other locations. I have never left a negative review before, but I guess like the service I received there is a first time for everything. read more

this is my second visit to this location. the service was ok not great The issue is the food. The food was either over cooked or under cooked. The other issue with the food is for example, i ordered an egg white omelette with onions and spinach. The omelette was good and they literally gave me two miniature slices of onions and one baby spinach leaf. i had them remake the omelette and they cooked the omelette the same way and yes it came out cold but they added red peppers this time. ok let's talk about the side potatoes i ordered. it appears that they mixed the old potatoes with fresh new potatoes on top. the potatoes on the bottom were so hard you couldn't even chew it . i would not recommend this location to anyone read more

There was a wait on Sunday. It's new, and things are still working out. Good food! Good location! Happy First Watch opened in Largo.

They setting the tone for sure read more

Move aside, the Silver Diner, Copper Canyon Grill, and neighboring restaurants, this is an upgrade of tasty, exciting dishes with delish and vibrant ingredients! New breakfast/lunch spot in Glen Arden is a must-try. I had the mashed avocado egg brioche sandwich with bacon and dressed arugula. It was excellent, and the fried potatoes were cooked well with a slight bitter kick (it may need a slight adjustment). The vibe is clean, modern, and bright. Coffee and water are left at your table in a carafe and jug instead of constant refills, which leaves a cozy feeling. My waitress was awkward; she sat down and read the dish to me after I placed the order if there was anything I dislike or want to remove from the order. I had to wait for my order longer than any other tables, and the manager was kind to check on me and resolved the waiting immediately. Here's a warning in a good way: it gets packed, so make a reservation. Am so glad to have a spot like this in my neighborhood, I will definitely be back. read more

9-6-26 My LOOOVE surprised me with a lunch date! waited for about an hr and 15 minutes despite putting on the waitlist. though the newness has died down the place stays super packed daily!!... When we finally got seated we skimmed the menu and Ordered!. We ordered the full Sandwiches and Bowl of Soup!!. He got the Roast beef with the creamy chicken wild rice soup of the day and I ordered the Monterey Club with an added sunny side up egg! for 1.79 with the same soup. We did halves and let's say I think I found LOOOVE where at first I was against it . That roast beef Sandwhich was good asf!!! from the crispy bread to the seasoned beef and the cheese it all paired very well. I don't eat roast beef ever but this sandwich I'm a fan! if the bread was like of a grilled cheese whew! Pressure!! Perfection ;) . He enjoyed my club twist and I didn't think they'd do it but so goood!. The soup we were expecting creamy consistency like you can dip your Sandwhich and it's dripping off your food but it wasn't that creamy more like oatmeal texture everything was molded together but with salt and pepper it was great!!.. the sweet tea is true to the tea bag Good!... now I know what to come back for!!! hopefully a bag of chips will be a sandwich option if not a loaded potato soup /pot roast & potatoes , ham & cheese soups in the future read more

Restaurant is very nice - bright and open unlike Bowie location. Food was just as good but I don't get why First Watch always serves cold waffles. Clearly they can see if the butter is not melting. Sent them back and got one that was at least warm but when I went to pay both waffles (2) we're on my bill. No liquor license yet so no mimosas. I will definitely return but why does their inside signage say Woodmore and they are next door to Jaspers in Largo. Service was very good and manager apologized for cold waffles. read more

First Watch review 8/18/26 before 10:00 am - [ ] Hostess stand not marked - [ ] Staff seemed to assume that a customer to a new establishment knew how they operate. Seemed slightly xxx that I walked to the pickup counter. - [ ] I opted for bar service rather than get on the wait list. There were many empty tables, so the wait list surprised me. They may have a staff shortage for a Tuesday. - [ ] The bar seats Nine. It's okay if you're with someone but a little snug when it starts filling up. - [ ] The parking lot had a lot of cars. They may have underestimated demand for a new (to this area) sit down restaurant. - [ ] I noticed a few people at tables with no food. Several staff of indeterminate roles were standing around. - [ ] I wonder if there is a kitchen staff issue. - [ ] Server at the bar has too many assignments. - [ ] I ordered an extra (3rd) scrambled egg with the Trifecta breakfast. When the order arrived, I could tell it was only two eggs. Ironically, the replacement egg was larger than the initial scramble. - [ ] Waffle was not hot enough to melt the whipped butter but The syrup was warm. - [ ] Paying your check requires use of a QR code. The paper check says, "no waiting" but having to do the extra steps to pay is not necessarily convenient. I'm not sure I'll go back. I don't like giving access to my phone like that. read more
