Half soup & sandwich hits the spot as well as the breakfast trifecta. Must try turkey sausage and carrot cake pancake yum

Awesome spot for breakfast. Had the yogurt bowl and a pancake. Got the kale tonic juice drink. A little pricey but most things that are good for you are. I will go back if in the area. The only thing I didn’t agree with was charging each person 4 bucks each for coffee. Just normal coffee nothing special.

We were on vacation in Destin Florida. We went there for breakfast, it was great!! Service was excellent. So far I have been to three different locations in North Texas and one in Florida!

Chickichunga is my absolute favorite. I get it every time. Millionaire bacon is to die for and the juices are all very good as well!

I was surprised by this location... The service was great but the food presentation did not live up to First Watch's usual consistency. We ordered a Cobb Salad and breakfast tacos. We received a modest side salad and mediocre tacos that were put together in a rush. This was the first disappointment at First Watch in the 30 years I have been a customer. I'll definitely try this location again.

Omelette was scorched. Potatoes were great. Eggs on other breakfast were overcooked. Children's waffles were fine. Highly overrated.

Great place to eat and staff is always friendly and efficient in their work. I eat here frequently and I’m never disappointed. Joshua is amazing there at what he does in the kitchen, very personable as well. Highly recommended

I’ve given this place many chances. It is sad since the food is good and healthy options exist. Imo, from direct experience, this corp owned location struggles constantly. The waitstaff are terrible with the exception of just 2 individuals. It feels like it is mismanaged or run by very inexperienced personnel. You will most likely wait to order an extended period of time, never see your server after placing an order, sit with dirty plates after eating, and only see someone again when they drop the check. Avoid this place at peak times if you must as the waitstaff is downright awful and apparently lacks any leadship. Corp needs to step in and save this location from itself. Given I put myself through college waiting and tending bar, it’s not that difficult if people are trained correctly. Otherwise any form of a tip here is simply charity. Again, sad as I do like First Watch. But the absence of value, makes it hard to ever revisit. Caveat emptor!

I love these restaurants! I visit our local one twice a month and they are very friendly and consistent. The food is amazing and we visited this location to get away from the recent hurricane, Helene. Chloe was our server and very nice. She didn't need to make any recommendations but did suggest the kale tonic drink which I hesitantly ordered, as I do not like kale but knew it would be healthy. It was delicious!!! She also accommodated me with the check from an adjacent table so I could pay their bill. The restaurants are very clean and decorated very nicely. You never have to wait on your food and go visit. I guarantee you'll have a great time and love your food!!! They also are wonderful with accommodating my service dog, a small Toy Poodle. Thank you First Watch staff!

Dylan was great. First time here and everything was fantastic. The best brunch I’ve had in the 30A area in a while. I highly recommend the healthy turkey omelette it was so good and the atmosphere inside was great, very clean, nice decor and good music. Also the coffee is super yum!
