12 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Newark

“I'm so disappointed that I need to change this formerly 5 star review (old review below).

The menu has been revamped, and in that process, many of the vegetarian- friendly options have been removed, including the ability to swap a vegetarian protein for the various breakfast meats. There are no longer any vegetarian substitutions.

The prices are no longer excellent, either. Today, I paid $17 for a just-ok omelet and potatoes that, despite having the same name they used to, are no longer nearly as good as they used to be.

This may be a function of it being a Sunday morning, but it was so loud in there that I could barely carry on a conversation.

My previous review is below. I'm hoping that the management will consider revising the menu to make it more flexible for vegetarians and others with dietary restrictions.

OLD REVIEW

Very relaxed atmosphere and an amazing menu! There were plenty of vegetarian options, and they can even add a Beyond Burger to omelets! Prices are very reasonable. Service was excellent, but it was a slow Monday morning, so that may differ during a weekend brunch rush.

I would absolutely recommend this restaurant if you're going to breakfast with people who have dietary restrictions.

Vegetarian options: Very few vegetarian options and no substitutions available.“

“We’re frequent customers at the Montvale, New Jersey, store, but this was our first visit to the Christiana (Delaware) First Watch. Spectacular food and spectacular hospitality from our server, Vanessa! I always get the ‘Traditional’ breakfast and a blueberry pancake. So yummy! My wife loved her ‘Farmhouse Skillet Scramble’! Hope we see you and your friends again, Vanessa! - Jim & Laurel Lambert“

“I've been going to the other First Watch for years but so glad this one opened up!! The food is incredible and the servers have been pleasant each time I've gone so far. They have limited time food and drinks, pictured is the Blazing Dragon which is very yummy!!“

“The food is delicious and the staff is amazing!“

“I still love and appreciate Sinclair's, but I've been disappointed more times than satisfied in the last couple of years... in addition to small portions and disproportionate prices, the food quality and service have been inconsistent in my most recent several visits.“

“I recently visited this location on a whim, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. From the moment I arrived, the staff's warm and welcoming demeanor stood out. They were not only friendly and attentive but also displayed a great sense of camaraderie, joking and interacting with each other in a way that enhanced the positive atmosphere without ever compromising their professionalism. It was clear that they enjoyed working together, which contributed to the overall welcoming vibe of the place.

The food was outstanding—delicious, well-prepared, and served with great attention to detail. What impressed me even more was the cleanliness of the entire establishment. It's evident that the team takes great pride in maintaining high safety standards and health practices, both in the preparation of the food and in keeping the location spotless. Their dedication to these standards was apparent, and it made our experience all the more enjoyable.

I look forward to returning to this location soon and want to express my gratitude for the excellent service and care we received. Thank you to the entire team for making our visit so pleasant!“
