We had another good experience at one of our favorite places to have breakfast in North Texas, First Watch McKinney! Great food and very good service. Shout out to Tiffany for her outstanding service. Warm, friendly and met all our needs. My wife and I were very appreciative. I had the Eggs Benedict with mixed greens. I recommend it! I also had one large blueberry pancake that was delicious! Thanks guys. Keep up the good work.

My first time visit to First Watch. Without seeing any reviews or much expectations I entered the place. To my surprise, everything was good and delicious. I ordered a Belgian Waffle, French Toast, Veggie Burger and Market Veggie. Loved all the 4 dishes. It was hot and good. Also had the Project Sunrise Coffee. I fell in love with the coffee. The coffee was something really good, which I haven’t tasted any where. I literally asked the waiter what coffee it was and got a bag while leaving the place. I arrived at the place at 12.45 AM, they roughly took 45 minutes to serve my food. And they served all the 4 dishes together. I just received my coffee within first 10 minutes. The place is always crowded and the wait time is 5 to 10 minutes. The reason I gave 4 stars is simply because of the 45 minutes wait for the food to be served. Other than that, all the dishes were extraordinary. The parking space is also decent enough. The place is definitely a great place for brunch. My first choice of coffee would always be PSR…A recommend place for a good Breakfast, lunch and Brunch.

Went for a Mother’s Day brunch and was pleasantly surprised with the service despite how busy they were. The food was fantastic and the waitress was attending to all my needs. I love their community table…what a great idea!

First watch is my one stop shop for fast and healthy breakfast. The eggs are fresh and the juices, OMG, freshly made juice and delicious too. I tried the hot chocolate for the first time and it was very well made and looked nice too. The service is always good and welcoming.

It’s a great place for breakfast with friends! We definitely go at least once per season, to try their temporary menu. The strawberry French toast and million dollar bacon make me want to go back asap!

The place is beautiful, the staff is amazing, but the food is terrible. I actually got quite ill after eating there as well. Go for a coffee and enjoy the ambiance. Eat elsewhere.
