First Watch is a delightful brunch spot that left a lasting impression on me and my coworkers. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to enjoy a meal together. I ordered the Turkey Burger with a cup of Tomato Basil Soup, and it was a match made in heaven! The burger was juicy and flavorful, and the soup was comforting with its fresh, tangy tomato taste. My drink order was the mocha mint cold brew coffee. It was super flavorful and I like that it actually came with mint leaves! My coworkers’ choices were equally scrumptious. The Seasoned Potatoes were perfectly seasoned and a great side dish. The Bacon was crispy and savory, adding a delicious touch to the meal. The Pancakes were fluffy and topped with just the right amount of syrup. The Omelette was filled with a delightful combination of ingredients, and the Toast was toasted to perfection. The service was friendly and attentive, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. First Watch has a diverse menu that caters to everyone’s tastes, and I’m already looking forward to returning to try more of their offerings. If you’re in the mood for a fantastic brunch, First Watch won’t disappoint! 🍔🍲🥓🥞🍳🍞

My first time trying “First Watch” and i really loved it . Being that I Love eating healthy and clean the fact that they offered a array of different healthy combos which was so considerate. I decided to get the “Healthy Turkey” and the “ Kale Tonic “ which was packed with nutrients like Kale, Fuji apple, cucumber and lemon. Might i add it was super good. Lastly i had the blue berry pancake which was super sweet and great amount of fluff that i liked . The service was great by this young African American girl i unfortunately didn’t get her name but she took care of us very well despite a minor hiccup we ran into .

The watermelon drink I had, tasted so refreshing. I could not decide for the life of me what I wanted so I ordered some chicken tacos because I saw another gentleman eating on them and I must say they were delicious. I will be back due to it being a cozy spot and to update about the breakfast.

Met up with friends before the Jags game. This place is always packed and our party of 5 were seated within a few minutes. Ordered a BLTE - bacon, lettuce, tomato, with egg paired with salad. Yummy! Great service too! Jaguars ran all over the Titans 34-14. Awesome day!

🕦 One if few breakfast places that are open on Sundays. 🍳 Food was good! We had two omelets and liked both of them. ☕️ Regular drip coffee is OK-ish. However, I think it’s not worth $3.29 per person. 🏡 Interior is nice, clean, modern. New open space. 🧑‍🍳 Stuff is very friendly and helpful. They know their menu well and give good advice. 💲Prices are a bit above average. Breakfast for two will be ~$35 (w/o tip). 🗺 Good location. Even though it’s on the plaza, it is very close to the River Walk.

Second time visiting a First Watch, but first time at this location. All staff members are extremely friendly, fastand efficient. We had left overs on all plates except the pancake, but it was a single and I didn't have any sides. With that said, I was still full. We had, ham and gruyere with tomatoe basil soup, farm stand breakfast tacos, farm house hash, blue berry pancake, and a mint mocha ice coffe. Everything tasted great and would order again. Mrs. Jackson was our server, and she was on top of everything. Kept our drinks full and our table clean. Only downside was a 20 minute wait, but it was worth it. The place is very busy. If this review was helpful, please give it a thumbs up.

Went to this location for the first time. Always wanted to go to the one on Baymeadows Road, but they're always crowded. The customer service at this other location is very good. I decided to have a breakfast burrito was very impressed with it. I will return to this location again.

Oh, so good. Love this place. Food is always great and so is the hospitality!! Ate with a friend, who brought her furry friend along.

Wonderful place for brunch/lunch! Great modern farmhouse decor with fresh organic food! Everything is prepared to your satisfaction. Absolutely delicious! Staff was friendly and attentive! Will return!

We sat at the bar since it was busy (not a huge line though), and got started on drinks. We absolutely love their Million Dollar Bloody Mary and the Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Yum. The food is so good! Chile Chorizo omelette and Florida French Toast are perfect! Staff are perfect and attentive, especially for being so busy. Highly recommend.

Great atmosphere, wasn’t very busy for a Saturday brunch, 15-20 min wait. They have wait list on web site. So much on menu to try. Today Mrs got the Carrot Cake pancake and I got the Chickichanga. Great flavor combos. Can’t wait to try some more items on the menu.

Just moved to Florida and I’m glad I found this place! It’s beautifully decorated, the staff are friendly and even though they were busy I was given refills as I needed. The menu is pretty big, there’s a bar, good healthy portions. I ordered the salmon with veggies, which was made into a type of omelette! Also the muffin of the day (blueberry). My only complaint is that the grits felt hard and looked like soup. But I would come again.

Fabulous dining facility!! Great food, atmosphere and staff! The food deserves an applause. Surprised to see the staff working as a team. I loved that about the restaurant. Not stuck looking for your waitress. Multiple people delivering food, filling drinks, and asking if we need anything? Very open and although busy, we did not feel like we were too close to anyone. Worth the wait and very healthy if you select the right food selection.

This was my first visit to the First Watch on Riverside avenue and it was a good one. We had a wonderful leisurely breakfast this morning . 3 of us had the steak Burrito and loved it. One of our party had Avocado Toast with an egg sunny side up. Which was reported to be great. And lastly, a generous portion of home fries came to the table with sausage gravy biscuits and was also reported to be wonderful. I would definitely try this restaurant again. And dive into the extensive menu.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I ordered the special Steak and Bacon burrito which was 🔥. The potatoes were perfect and the red sauce was delicious. The Mrs ordered the eggs Benedict. The eggs were cooked perfect and she complained about two much ham. 🤣 Would definitely recommend

First time going and I was a little let down. The look was great. We got seated fast. I didn't know what was in the menu and the server had no recommendations. The food was ok. A step up from the local Denys bit priced way over value. The plates and forks and glasses where all nasty. The bathroom was clean. The server forgot about me so I cashed myself out. At the front. I mean I wasn't expecting high value. But this wasn't it for me!!! Maybe will try again to see if it was a one off.

So first and foremost let’s talk about our server Elizabeth with the red curly hair! She was so attentive, had great conversation, and truly made our dining experience so nice! Will be coming back strictly for her!

This morning I had the pleasure dining in at First Watch Riverside. The awesome duo of Holly and Molly made my day started very right! As you can see my Trifecta Breakfast (Banana Crunch Pancake) no doubt a breakfast of champions. Thank you First Watch Riverside for always providing awesome services with professionalism especially when days there can be overwhelming.

Had a very bad experience at this location this s morning. I’ve frequented it for n the past without issue. Four of us were there and two of us ordered the brisket hash. When mine arrived, I noticed that it didn’t appear to have any brisket. I cut up the over easy eggs hoping to see it under them but nothing. It took a few minutes to call over the server to point out that looking at my plate and that of the other diner with me, my plate had no brisket. She doesn’t take my plate but went back to the kitchen. Upon returning to our table, she told me that the kitchen told that indeed there was brisket put on the plate. I told her to closely look at the plate that I had yet to eat. By now the cool eggs which were sunny side were covering the potatoes. I asked for the manager as the kitchen made no attempt to address my concern. About 10 minutes later my server returned with a small portion of brisket. I am stunned at this action on the part of the kitchen. The manager NEVER came to my table to apologize for the terrible meal. Not planning on returning to this location again!

Excellent breakfast every time. The eggs were a tad over done on the Eggs Benedict this time, but it was still great. The coffee is hot, fresh, and tasty. This is easily my favorite place to grab breakfast. I can't believe I didn't find this place sooner!

I visited this First Watch for the first time. Service was fast and efficient. The servers were friendly despite the busy pace. Everyone seemed to care about providing an enjoyable experience. Last but not least, the food was better than mediocre as expected if you like any First Watch. Yet I loved the food here… It was great! My pancakes were just right and everything exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it!

What a great surprise! We knew nothing about this place and just stumbled upon it. They had a fantastic selection of unique breakfast items. Something for everyone. Highly recommend!

I must say I was a bit disappointed. We visited the Riverside location. Since we have been in Jacksonville, First Watch (Beach Blvd) has been our go to place for high quality food and supreme coffee. I ordered the market hash and my wife ordered the farmhouse hash with a blueberry muffin. The potatoes in the hash were VERY salty. I thought it just me, but my wife also stated that her potatoes were also very salty. Also the fruit on the side was tasteless and the water was TERRIBLE. So much so that we had to walk back to the car and get our bottled water. The positive aspects were that the coffee was still pretty good and the waiter was nice and polite. From now on, we're going to stick with the Beach Blvd location. We seem to have better luck there.

Love the food here. The waiters have consistently been attentive,helpful&nice. The portions are nice sized &the pancakes are HUGE!

Me and my girlfriend really liked this place. The food were hot & fresh and service was great. We left there happy and we'll come again.

The food and ambiance are fantastic. If you go on a weekday morning, however, don't count on getting speedy service.

This place is awesome in every way. Had a wonderful time with coworkers. Service was great and a lovely atmosphere.

Delucious place for breakfast and brunch. Ample parking, easy access, and super clean. The food was good, healthy, and filling. Fresh ingredients and friendly service. Lots of traffic. There is a wait at peak hours but totally worth it. We'll come again.

The food is always extremely fresh and the staff is always very friendly. Also a huge bonus that they make calorie counting so easy via the nutritional information on their website! Being able to customize (by adding or taking away toppings and even substitutes) and calorie count my meals can be a deal breaker at other restaurants! First Watch doesn’t disappoint.

Came from out of town and this was the first time being here. Small wait of 5-10 min and when we were finally seated i had to let the host know we were ready to order because we have been sitting for abojt 20 min. Ordered immediately and all food was good but the pancakes tasted like cornbread. The eggs and bacon were good too. Not sure we will be back. Gave 4 starts because the waitress took the pancake off and she was really sweet

Parking is decently adequate however it is shared with a bunch of other stores so it can fill up and parking will be tight in trying to find a spot at peak times. Pricing of food is decent for the area and for the amount of food. They do have gluten free bread options if that is necessary and will leave put xyz ingredients if you cannot have xyz for example no dairy so no cheese on a scramble. Food was good and was flavourful based on everyone's opinion of our party of 4. Only 1 entree had to be remade as 1 ingredient was in it that a person in our party cannot eat. Overall it was a good experience and would visit again and recommend to others.

Food was good but the restaurant was very crowded. We opted to sit at the bar for quicker service. Our waitress was very slow and far more interested in serving the customers sitting next to us. This meal took far more time than I had anticipated.

Me and my family made it a point to come have all our breakfast outings here!❤️Wait is a little long and service is a little slow but the food is Amazing and who doesn’t love morning mimosas.

The food was very good and reasonably priced but we experienced a longer than acceptable wait. We will do back because it is a really good place to eat.

Food was fresh, fast and delicious! Stopped here for brunch before our cruise and had a great time

We had to wait for about 30 minutes but it's understandable since we can tell that they were understaffed. It's a little bit on the expensive side but the love their bread. The coffee is average but the servers were nice and accommodating. Overall it was a great breakfast place. 👍
