    Sunrise Granola Bowl and AM Superfoods Bowl with unwanted utensils
    Rachel E.

    This location is a short walk from my apartment building and I walk past it all the time to get to Starbucks, but I haven't ordered from here in a couple years after a really bad take-out experience. I decided to try again, but unfortunately it was another bad experience. I placed my order online for pick-up and then walked over. My order was ready on time and the employee at the front podium was very nice. When I got home though, I realized half my order was missing. Two of four items left out! I ordered the Sunrise Granola Bowl (a fruit and yogurt parfait), which is supposed to come with "a freshly baked muffin of the day" and the AM Superfoods Bowl (a chia pudding), which is supposed to come with "whole grain artisan toast with almond butter and Maldon sea salt." Well, I got the yogurt parfait and the chia pudding, but no muffin and no almond butter toast. I absolutely would not have paid $10.99 for a yogurt parfait on its own had it not included the muffin. And the chia pudding was priced even higher at $12.99, I assume at least in part because almond butter is pretty expensive these days. But with half my order missing, this was a terrible value. And yes, I probably should have checked the bag before I got home to make sure my order was correct, but on the other hand, should I have to? Also, not as big of an issue but still a major pet peeve of mine: I made sure the checkbox for including cutlery and napkins was NOT checked, but they included two sets of plastic cutlery anyway. It's just wasteful to include the extra plastic when the customer has not asked for it. Why have the check-box with the option to not get it if you're just going to throw it in with every order anyway? So I got half the food and twice the plastic waste I was supposed to get. And next time I'm on my way to Starbucks, I'll just keep walking past.

    Breakfast time!

    The service was super fast and pleasant and the food was delicious But It was freezing We could feel the cold air which made it a bit uncomfortable. I forgot to keep pictures because I was ready to eat! Overall a great spot. I'll come back soon.

    Mushroom-Onion-Cheddar Omelette-Grits-Biscuit
    Joseph S.

    We went to First Watch last weekend, my friend had been many times, it was my first. It won't be my last. We arrived just before 9, and there were plenty of seats...... by 9:30, a line was forming. I was surprised how popular it was, until my breakfast arrived. I got an omelette with mushrooms, onions and cheddar - you can have them anyway you'd like. I then substituted my toast for biscuits - that's a no brainer, and ordered homemade grits, instead of the home fries. The omelette was delicious, cooked perfectly! The biscuits, recommended by my friend, were light and flaky with a wonderful buttery taste. The grits were also recommended and they were superb - my friend's from Atlanta-need I say more. The grits and biscuits are a must order, regardless of your main dish. We will be returning to First Watch.....very soon!

    Quinoa power bowl
    Ashley K.

    Have not been to first watch in 2 years. Wait time was OK. Our server was nice, but no utensils were given until the food came out. Didn't even think about giving us water until we asked. I ordered the quinoa power bowl which was good, but their lemon ricotta pancakes weren't that great. We've had better.

    Overcooked egg's Benedict
    Carrie S.

    I wasn't super thrilled with the food. The service was great. They were very friendly and accommodating. I ordered the Florentine eggs Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was delicious but cold. One egg was runny and the other was overcooked. It was a good sized portion. The ciabatta bread was soft and fresh. The greens on the side were fresh and dressed well. The menu said free refills on the ice tea but I was charged for two. So $6.99 for two teas. Not sure what that was all about. I do have to say that I had one little issue and told the server. She was very apologetic and said she'd tell the manager. I'm not mentioning specifics here because I'm sure it's going to be taken care of. I liked how they reacted and were genuinely apologetic.

    The Works omelet
    Ji B.

    Nothing to complain about, but nothing super spectacular either. Ordered The Works (omelet) and it tasted like any other omelet. The thing that was memorable was the bread that came with it - so well buttered and flavorful!

    Smoked salmon eggs benedict (with potatoes)
    Anna S.

    This is one of the must-try brunch places in Philly area. I was surprised that they have "smoked salmon version" of egg benedict and the lemon dressing on top of my eggs were ON POINT!! The downside about this place was their drinks. They didn't offer freshly freshly squeezed juice at here, they only had bottled juice options. I love the fact that this place listed out all their ingredients and calories for each dish on their menu! If you need to watch out for your calories intake, this place is for you to go for having a nice treat to yourself while you are on diet! I will come back this place in the near future to try their other dishes (really curious about how their "million bacons" taste like)!

I had the BLT with avocado and every part of the meal was excellent. The toasty bread was crisp and had a really nice texture; the egg was cooked just how I asked; the bacon a perfect balance of crisp and chewy. I asked for an extra side of avocado (I'm all about getting my fiber) and it arrived at the peak of perfect ripeness. The home fries were tender and savory. Also my cappuccino was delicious. The dining area was very clean and had a faintly rustic feel. The bathroom was also sparkling clean. I was in and out in less than 40 minutes, too, but never felt rushed. There were plenty of vegetarian options. I'm not too sure about it if you have to avoid dairy or gluten; the menu has a lot of that. Handicap access was pretty good: no steps to get in and out of the place. Honestly I can't wait to visit here again!

The owner actually came out to introduce himself, make recommendations on dishes based on what you are in the mood for...he was social and it really shows his attention to detail and customer satisfaction! Food: very well presented with unique plates with food well laid out with fruit garnish on both sides. Pancakes were cooked in a dish to ensure fluffy and uniform presentation Overall: highly recommend anyone who reason my reviews, if your in Philly or the burbs, stop down to enjoy a relaxing bite to eat with excellent food and service!!!!

You order at the counter and then a somewhat grumpy ahjumma brings you the food. :) - soy garlic fried chicken - 4/5, solid option - vegetable jeon - 3/5, little greasy for my liking - bulgogi bibimbap - 4/5, another solid option but I much prefer my bibimbap in a stone pot where the rice can get crispy but that was not what they had to offer so there was truth in advertising A bit expensive for lunch but very convenient on the Main Line plus they have a lot of cute things for purchase in the store. I'd go again to try other items from their menu and support this family owned business.

I enjoyed my dalgona coffee while watching the kdrama that was on. I've never been here so I wanted to try a few things, I got the Mul Naengmyeon and a Jeyuk Quesadilla. The soup was refreshing; I've had something similar before and enjoyed the chewy noodles and savory broth. The quesadilla had good flavor but was very greasy. I was able to eat about half using chopsticks to eat the filling out of the tortilla. Service was average. I really enjoy the overall vibe of the eatery and would like to come back with friends and maybe try the tteokbokki. Is on the pricier side for three items, I paid $49. Still very cute and would recommend though!

Visited a couple of times while I was living in Philly, from what I remember their banh mi were also pretty good. Pretty good place to study/work as well, they have two large table, a handful of small tables, and a bar section. On my recent visit in July 2026 it looks like they limit their wifi to 2 hours on the weekends and 4 hours on weekdays (sad to see since I don't remember this being a thing a couple years ago, but makes sense because they seem to be a lot busier now).

    I didn't even realize there was a PJ Whelihan's in Wynnewood until attending an 80th birthday party…read morehere today. The location is a bit awkward because there isn't convenient handicap parking directly in front of the entrance, which could make things a little challenging for some guests. I recommend dropping people off who have mobility issues first then park. Our party was held in the private area in the back, but it's not truly private since there isn't a door, it's more of an open corner section of the restaurant. Because of that, it was pretty loud with the jumbo TVs going and regular diners nearby. I've been to the PJ Whelihan's in Blue Bell, and their private room had doors and felt more separated from the rest of the restaurant, which helped with noise. That said, the Wynnewood location has a huge bar and tons of big-screen TVs, so it definitely has that fun sports bar vibe. The food for the party was good overall, although it wasn't served very hot. The buffet included Caesar salad, rolls, sweet potato fries, potatoes, broccoli, crab cakes, salmon, and chicken parmesan. The salmon was a bit overcooked and slightly dry, likely from sitting out for a while, but the rest of the items were ok. Soft drinks were included, while alcoholic beverages were purchased separately at the bar. I also want to give a shoutout to Lina Morgan and the manager Shannon, who were all very helpful and attentive to our group throughout the event. One thing to note if you're planning a party here: they don't allow take home containers for leftover buffet food due to food safety concerns since the food sits out and temperatures fluctuate. Overall, it's a lively spot and did I say with plenty of TVs lol and a good setup for group gatherings. If you're planning a party and don't mind some background noise, it's a solid option.

I went with a Reuben which was good, albeit somewhat greasy. Sandwiches are plated with chips. I like this place enough to return. If they grill their burgers and can make mine rare, they can count me as a new customer!
