Everything here was fantastic except for the poached eggs… ha, I should have read the reviews and stuck to my eggs sunny side up. I had the seasonal brisket hash and amelia had the Trifecta. We shared a biscuit and gravy. The sausage gravy is turkey-based and amazing. Will definitely come back, and stick to eggs sunny side up.

Excellent place for brunch or lunch and probably dinner as well. It was very well positioned near my shopping that day, and I was starved. Walked right in even though they were busy and got a table with a very prompt and courteous service. My dish was delicious and very healthy.

Thank you so much to the staff at First Watch McCandless! My waitress Lea went above and beyond as well as the door greater I think he said his name was Josh. I went for breakfast to celebrate finding out I do not have breast cancer and Lea gave me an extra ice coffee for me as well as the table beside me Penny and Jeff who were customers just stopping in for a bite paid for my meal as they found out my news as well. All I have to say is that there are still great people in this world! I can’t ever thank you guys enough!

The good is fine. Usually well prepared and spot on. The problem is the service. There is a massive discrepancy between the wait staff. Depending on who you get will change how long you wait and the treatment you receive. Try it out you may lick out and get a good server.

Excellent food at First Watch, especially if you’re trying to stay healthy. Probably the first time I’ve ever had greens swerved with breakfast in a restaurant

For a chain restaurant, the food is absolutely delicious. It is worth the long wait on the weekend. Portion sizes are great and everything on the menu is good quality and very tasty.

I sat at the community table for 20 min waiting for service. One of the waitress was flirting with the couple sitting in front of me, ignoring me. I didn’t even get to order a drink so I left.

This is one of my favorite breakfast spots. Their iced coffee is delicious. I also like the Kale Tonic and fresh squeezed OJ! Their bacon and potatoes are always on point. The staff is super friendly even when they’re busy. Outside seating available! Always recommend this place!

Ate here yesterday for the 3rd time and it’s very good. I personally like the breakfast burrito. Unfortunately it is a seasonal item so they don’t always have it. I got the tacos as they were a good alternative, per the waitresses order. Only thing that’s kind of weird is their iced coffee comes with cream and sugar in it. If you like black coffee like me, you have to get the cold brew.
