Very nice lunch spot.
I had the BLTE and it was perfect. Crunchy bacon but not over cooked, the egg was not runny nor hard.
My wife had the ginger, honey pecan salad and it must have been great because she devoured it.
I also had the broccoli cheese soup. It was very thick and creamy with just the right spices.
Service could have been a little nicer.

Perfect. Seated promptly as it was not yet busy. Server great. Food arrived in timely manner. Had Floridian French toast, and I think it was an Italian Rustica Fritatta (or something like that). Both were wonderful.
I’m a fan and this location on Wake Forest did not disappoint.

Great place… delicious breakfast and Britney our server was a delight too. She gave us some favorites and so glad she did. The tacos are amazing and my husband loved his skillet breakfast too.

This is a follow up to my original review. I never been bounced from a table here before. But be aware not to “linger” too long. Waitress was perfectly lovely, I don’t know if it was the busboy, manager or someone else, but not me but my friend was asked if we could clear out. There were a few people waiting, but there was no line. Guess we’ll find somewhere else to get together and catch up around the holidays.

been to many first watch locations and they never disappoint! always consistent with food and staff were super friendly.
we ordered the smoked salmon eggs benedict, farmhouse hash, and the shrimp and grits. the smoked salmon was great and the potatoes are probably the best part of the meal! the hash was delicious was well. the shrimp and grits were good but the grits could’ve used more salt for my taste. still delicious nonetheless.
i would come again to this location in the future. first watch is a great place for breakfast. i recommend getting on their waitlist to avoid long wait times too.

We arrived and the place had people waiting outside. We were told 30 min, but only waited maybe about 15, maybe. I’m told it always has a line of people waiting through their lunch hours.
The menu isn’t overly packed, I would say just right. Seems much of their menu items have mushrooms, avocado and cheese. But I was able to make adjustments to my choice since I can’t do dairy and don’t like mushrooms or avocado.
Their specialty non alcoholic drinks are very nice. I had a purple haze which was made with Sweet Pea tea and Lavender.
I couldn’t finish my croissant sandwich, but I didnt want to leave it, so I brought the 2 bites home to have when the urge hit.

A bougie little brunch spot, expevt to pay $$ Was pretty good. Food was tasty, a bit pricey for what I got. Our server had barely any urgency to his step, took his time with everything. The hostess was great tho. Will probably try it again.

It was my first time at FIRST WATCH today. I loved it. The pancakes are really smooth, on top when you add their warm syrup it makes it more yummy.
Avocado and French toast are much appreciated. I really recommend this and will visit soon again.

I have already tried calling 7 times to remedy the situation but no one picks up the phone. The meal we picked up today to go was disgusting, no toppings for my omelet and the potatoes in both of our meals were raw. The omelet was also completely overcooked, will not be back.

I absolutely love coming to this location. The service is always warm, fast, and consistent — you can tell the team takes pride in what they do. And the coffee… wow. The flavor is incredible! It’s rich, smooth, and honestly one of the best I’ve had anywhere. I always end up ordering one to go just so I can keep enjoying that amazing taste on the road.
If you’re looking for great food, great people, and coffee that actually makes your morning better, this is the place. Highly recommend!
