First Watch

The food was good and it was very easy to order it how I wanted etc. It was hot and fresh when it came to the table. The place gets 3 stars for the service. We sat down and our waitress said I’ll be right back to get your drinks… 20 mins later. I ordered a coffee since this place is known for brunch and got a reply of «I normally bring out coffee with breakfast but not closer to lunch» and then walked away… Was I getting my coffee??? No idea. I did and like I said the food was good and that part didn’t take long at all but the waitress was very abrupt and not friendly in the least.

Quick and friendly service combined with outstanding coffee and a marvelous Acapulco omelette made today’s breakfast a great experience. Topped off with a to go coffee. Will come back!

I’ve come to love First Watch’s food, but this particular one has let me down over and over again with the service. The service has never been great, but the last time I went, the server didn’t even come to our table or bring us water for 10 minutes and there were only 4 other tables in the restaurant at the time– all of which had different servers. When she finally did come by, I asked about substituting an item of one of their offered meals and before I could even say «I’ll pay the upcharge» she interrupted me and rudely said «no I can’t do that without an upcharge, but I can give you sausage instead.» So instead of arguing, I just agreed. The food was decent, per usual, but when I got my check, she STILL upcharged me for the sausage even though that’s not even what I wanted in the first place. She was rude, inattentive and cost herself a tip.

It’s nice inside, for a diner type place. The staff is very friendly. The food comes out very quickly. It’s a pay at the register at the front kind of place. The food was just okay. Definitely was not wowed by anything, but it wasn’t bad. May be it would be a good place for groups to go out to brunch because it’s affordable.

Service is super fast & friendly. Hash is delicious & filling. Pancakes are huge! Hubs ordered The Trifecta which came with only two slices of bacon. A side of bacon however came with four pieces. Go figure. However for a breakfast place the coffee is just, «Meh.»

The food was good. The service was just okay. I wonder why the hostess questioned my table needs?
Customer: «Hi, I need a table for 4 and another table for 2.»
Hostess: «Uhhh, You just want a table for 6?»
Customer: «No actually, I’d like a table for 4, and then a table for 2. There will be 4 teens at one table and then another table for just 2 of us.»
Hostess: (completely dumbfounded look, says nothing, and walks to two tables right next to each other)
After that it seemed like doing it this way was so foreign and strange to them that it affected the rest of the meal. Lackluster service, and kind of unresponsive.
The good thing was, the food was tasty!

The food is fresh and the menu has a good variety of choices. The service is consistently fast and polite. This is my go-​to place for comfort food for breakfast or lunch.

Everything you try, even a simple English muffin is going to be perfect. Every breakfast item you could want is on the menu and it’s all made amazingly well. The fresh first watch coffee is the added bonus to a perfect breakfast.

Awful, bland, same ol’ same ol’ that you find at any First Watch in the city. Difference is this one is in an area of town that serves actual good food. And they also are demanding an iconic music venue close because there’s *gasp* alcohol served there. Even though they’ve had a spotless record for a decade.
Hey bland chain First Watch: You’re in Westport!!! We like booze here! Hell, we were BUILT on booze. If you don’t like it, why are you here?
I can’t imagine anyone in the Midtown area dining on such beige fare, given all of the amazing options nearby, but I hope no one does anymore after recordBar moves.

I think this place is suitable for anyone and everyone. It isn’t going to blow you away with some of the creativity you will find with some of the more «urban, hipster/​trendy» type restaurants within Westport but it’s good food. They have a wide variety of food and all the food was satisfying. I’ve eaten here twice and I would come again. I think it is well worth the price and the wait wasn’t very long.

People who work there are nice and service is really good. The majority of their food is good too with the exception of anything with broccoli. I had tried this one omelet twice that had broccoli and both times the broccoli was really bad. It was wayyyyy over cooked to the point it was difficult to chew and tasted like maybe it was marinated in something (?) I don’t know. Either way I sent it back, which is something I NEVER do.

Came here Sunday morning before the rush showed up. Super friendly service. The omelette was fantastic and the waffle delicious. If my options are here or IHOP on 39^th, I’m coming here every time!

First Watch in Westport is a really good place for breakfast. Today the wife and I stopped in after an early morning doctor’s appointment. Their menu has many healthy choices which I appreciated. I had the vegged-​out omelette which was made with egg whites, loaded veggies and pepper jack cheese. The wife had one chocolate chip pancake with a side of bacon. Pancakes are huge at First Watch so go easy.

Good joint. Had some quality flapjacks. I was a little weirded out that the entire restaurant wore Royals jerseys. I think it was a coordinated move. However, the service was great and the food was quality.

GREAT GREAT GREAT…
Great food
Great location
Great service
I met two others for a networking brunch and the service was perfect. I enjoyed my oatmeal and fresh squeezed orange juice. One of my brunch buddies was thrilled with the crabcake egg benedict. While I dont recall what the other individual ordered, he was no less pleased!
Our coffee and water remained full and our server was discreetly attentive as we discussed business. Excellent place for healthier brunch options.

Delicious healthy food reasonably priced. The menu was diverse in selection but consistent in quality. Service was fast and personable. I got a kale salad with basted eggs and a glass of day glow juice. It was so refreshing to have a brunch that didn’t break the bank and left the body feeling great!

I had the best breakfast this morning! Trish and I decided to eat a little of her hangover off so we headed to First Watch since it’s so close to my casa. They had a light menu that had some fantastic selections on it for once. Sometimes the ‘light’ menu tends to suck when you actually look closely at it. I’d rather eat 600 calories of awesome omegas and healthy fats than 600 calories of carbs that will burn off as quick as they plastered themselves on my rear end. Since I’m a bit more health conscious lately and the current lover of the loss of 10 pounds I went with the slightly Paleo friendly Avocado toast with 2 ‘basted’ eggs and a side of bacon… because duh I have a bacon tattoo and I love bacon!!! The basted eggs are basically healthy fried eggs that are covered at the end to finish them off with a tad bit of steam facial. They were lightly dusted with a bit of cilantro which I appreciate as a native Southwesty. The avocado on top of the whole grain toast was amazing!!! It was basically the creamiest dreamiest guacamole sans the finely diced jalapeño I would’ve added for flair, mixed with a few squeezes of beautifully bright lemon juice and a sprinkle of sea salt for good ol’ sailors luck… remember the red sky warning? I give a big fat A++++++ for this dish First Watch, bravo, take a bow!!!

@First_Watch Never Again! We normally go to the First Watch in Fairway, so thinking that all locations held a high standard of service and food, we stopped here on Black Friday morning. It was fairly busy but our waitress decided her time was best spent chatting with the people behind us, which I gather she knew well. After we finally got our drinks, and food, and started to dig in, I noticed a soapy odor coming from the Gravy… Very odd, thinking my nose was just having an off day, we finished eating and went home. Not one hour later… well lets just say food poisoning… violently… NEVER AGAIN will I eat here.

Love this place.!!
Food is never a disappointment, Servers are always friendly, & the service is always prompt. It also is clean & has a nice warm quite feel for early weekend breakfast.
Prices are well within reason & the portions are just about right.
The only draw-​back would be no Patio.
It would bee nice to enjoy a spring or fall weekend morning on!
But other than that… No complaints with what they offer!

I am 100% in love with First Watch! The Unilocal App lead me to this incredible brunch spot and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed every meal I’ve had there.
The first time I visited First Watch, I was dining solo. They told me I could skip the 30 minute wait if I agreed to dine at the Community Table. Why of course! I sat at a large table of about 8 random people and we all made slightly awkward small talk while enjoying our omelets. Strangely enough, it was a delightful time.
Service has always been top-​notch and extremely friendly. Food is always beyond delicious and the coffee is strong and your cup never goes empty. I have absolutely no complaints about First Watch and now I’m really craving a pancake.
