We decided to give this a try on a Saturday morning during Dreamville Festival weekend. The wait was only 15 minutes which was impressive. They have outdoor seating and the restaurant has a very nice open feel. We ordered the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with strawberries and the Smoked Salmon Benedict. The food came out quickly and the server was very nice. The pancakes were fluffy and the eggs on the Benedict were made perfectly. Would definitely eat here again

Best First Watch in the area. Clean, fast, good customer service. I've come here with co workers during work hours and friends on the weekends and the service is consistent. Food is great and never hurts my belly. The fun drinks are awesome, morning mediation and purple haze are expensive but sooo worth it!Dietary restrictions: Shows all allergy information online, so helpful!!Parking: Lots of parking and freeKid-friendliness: Very kid friendly!Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible ramp to enter, level floor, table options, good handicap parking.

Most of the time we go to First Watch, we have an amazing experience along with fantastic food. Today, we had great food, but a waitress who had no business interacting with customers. Her attitude made the overall experience less than desirable, and her tip reflected that.

This is a great place for breakfast, lunch, or brunch. The wait staff are friendly. The service is prompt. I had the ricotta pancakes with lemon curd, along with an iced coffee, and it was delicious. I noticed several patrons coming in to pick up to go orders. I will definitely be back.

Usually First Watch is right on top of service. It was so poor this past week. Waited forever for coffee-- it was clear it was just forgotten. Additionally ordered a side of gf toast. It's about half the size of regular bread served. $2.49 for ONE four inch by 1/2 inch piece of toast seemed excessive compared to all other food. Very disappointing.

Had breakfast while I was in town for a convention. The food was delicious, especially the million dollar bacon! The restaurant is cozy and cute. I wish I lived nearby because there were so many things on the menu that I wanted to order.

This was my first time trying FW. Never have the person who busts tables caught my attention. During this visit, SHE was ON IT and focused on ensuring guests were seated as quickly as possible. I just want acknowledged that the pride in one's work was clearly evident. She simply stood out! The food & service were absolutely great, and I will be back.

Not typical African American food regarding to taste. While there are many locations across the nation after my second visit I don't plan on going back.

Excellent food but poor coffee. Considering the great food, this chain really needs to up their game on the coffee. Also, capsule cremes on the table (hazelnut & French vanilla) but no plain milk or half-and-half in sight. Special request for half-and-half took 10-15 minutes. Having said this, I WILL GO BACK FOR THE FOOD AND GOOD SERVICE!
