The food was delicious and was generously portioned. I ordered the Yahoo!! which is an open-face Mexican-style omelette. The omelette included broccoli and celery which were unique but tasty omelette toppings. The celery was cut into very small pieces so it wasn’t overwhelming.
The service was quick and attentive. We were also seated right away for brunch on a Saturday at around 11am.
There were so many good-looking options on the menu that everyone in our party had trouble deciding what to order. 😂 We will definitely be back to try more of their dishes!

It’s nice when you order an omelette from GrubHub with cheese and you get basically no cheese except for 1 teaspoon on one teeny corner. Entire omelette had zero cheese except for that one corner, which was about the size of a 50 cent piece. Dry omelette.

Took a window seat to enjoy the beautiful post office across the street. I am a biscuits & gravy fan. The biscuits tasted like they were fresh and homemade, the sausage/mushroom gravy was creamy and delicious. The organic Italian coffee was spot on. The hash browns were unique and I will leave that to you to try. A truly enjoyable brunch.

The restaurant is filled with festive spirits for the upcoming holidays! Nice decorations with tall glass windows for all the lights to shine through. Warm and cozy place. The waitress was so lovely and energetic even though it’s already midday.
The food was good. Only one small thing: the poached eggs of Egg Benedicts wasn’t poached enough. It was almost like a boiled eggs. Should be runnier. Otherwise, everything was good.

Always good brunches in this light filled restaurant. Tall windows connects you to the outdoor. The wait staff is friendly and helpful. One of the few breakfast spots around town. Big menu to choose from. Street parking is quite easy. Fully accessible entrance. Long wait on the weekends though, but well worth it.

I’ve been coming here for years and my go to is the crab cake Benedict with hashbrowns. Sometimes when I’m craving something sweet, the pancakes are the way to go. The service is always super friendly and attentive.

This place feels like a family run restaurant! I’m not sure if it actually is, but that’s the feel I get. The food is good too, I’ve been twice so far and I got the hungry jack each time. Really recommend for a local, casual spot in San Mateo.

Been coming here since it was First Watch, now Bay Watch. Delicious food, generous portions, friendly service and I love that you get English muffins or bagels with breakfast. Great place to bring the family. Lots of windows and natural light.

My Sister, Sister-in-law, and I are here from the East Coast. in looking for nice brunch places we found Bay Watch. We can’t wait express how great the food was: choices, freshness, and overall taste. We absolutely loved the dining experience. However, more importantly was the service. Our waiter was Tony, he must be the star of the establishment. He was engaging, funny, and clearly knows how to keep the customers happy.
Having Tony and enjoying the food only reinforces Baywatch being the best in San Mateo.

Do you enjoy below average food and service for average prices? Then you'll love this place! Not much to say, except that it was open when most places on B were closed.
