My son wanted breakfast for his birthday meal, so after a little bit of research we discovered First Watch. We arrived mid lunch hour and the place was packed. They seemed a bit understaffed. There was a line at the checkout counter, and several parties ahead of us waiting for tables. Rather than have a designated cashier/hostess the wait staff had to perform all duties.
We were informed that although they had tables available, due to large party there were no chairs. We were offered either seating at the bar or waiting, we chose the bar. We had a nice view of the street, but the chairs were very narrow and uncomfortable.
I ordered the eggs benedict BLT Style which consisted of two poached eggs on a brioche bun with bacon, avocado, tomato and topped with hollandaise sauce. There was a mixture of Greens in a ligh lemon dressing on the side. My son chose the Trifecta, which consisted of four slices of bacon, two eggs any style, and one large waffle. Our poor waiter was running himself ragged trying to take care of all of the customers, he apologized for the wait, and comped our soft drinks. I did see two other people whom I assume were wait staff, but I didn’t see them doing much work at all.
When our food arrived, there was no avocado on my benedict. The waiter was more than happy to go get me a side of it. I can honestly say that this was the best eggs benedict that I have ever eaten! The bun was the perfect amount of crisp, the eggs were cooked to perfection, the bacon was thick and crispy, and the Hollandaise sauce was heavenly, with just the right amount of lemon. My son also enjoyed his plate very much, stating that it was one of the best waffles he has ever eaten. The decor was very basic and simple, and I got more of a take-out vibe than an actual sit-down restaurant. Our waiter was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and provided some of the best service I have ever had.
I will definitely be back for more of their scrumptious eggs Benedict, but I believe the next time I will order it to go.
Total bill for two lunches not including tip was $31.00 and change.

I just love this place! They have the best breakfast around. The most healthy option and variety in a breakfast place I have seen! My boyfriend loved it so much we had to go twice in our one week trip to Lynchburg! The food and service is always great! The juices are so yummy! I like over-easy eggs and they do them perfectly! The pancakes are HUGE & the syrup is warm!

The servers are often slow, so not come back often enough to the table to ask how everything is. This day when eating there, the omelette and potatoes were almost cold!!
They were probably held for sometime before being delivered to the table, and the plates are very cold stoneware!! Which should always be preheated before warm food is placed on them, common sense .
The staff at this place were mainly hanging out in the back laughing and not working the tables.
I’ve been to several First Watch locations, Charlotte, NC to Jupiter, FL, this one was certainly the worst of any I’ve seen .

I paid over $30 for two to-go dishes that barely contained any food. It’s seems instead of solely raising their prices, they have also diminished their serving sizes.
Also, when I came to pick up my app placed to-go order, I first checked in with the host stand. Instead of having me sit and wait on the benches by the door, the host told me to go wait by the kitchen in a cramped awkward spot right next to other families eating their breakfast and servers taking food out. It felt awkward and very in the way.
The food tastes fine and the atmosphere is what I like about this place, however I am not sure after this I will choose to dine here again.
For the prices this business charges, I expect far better service and dish preparation.

Grace is a true delight. Her kindness is a breath of fresh air in this crazy world today. She made sure we had everything we needed from start to finish. And for us, the food here is always delicious! It is our go to spot after a tough week. Great job Grace!!! Hope you will serve us again. Thank you!

First Watch is my favorite restaurant for the fact that it consistently exudes a friendly farmhouse feel, with an expansive menu to satisfy all cravings and taste preferences. The French Toast will forever be my favorite, especially the Hawaiian French Toast. Although, I got the summer sensation, Strawberry Tres Leches French Toast this time. This location, however, went above my expectations with the best server we’ve ever had. Autumn was very attentive and more than happy to adjust our orders and make accommodations. She was perfectly amiable, serving delicious dishes and pure kindness. Like any of their locations, the Lynchburg First Watch is definitely worth a visit!

As a picky eater I am very satisfied with my experience trying out First Watch today. I was a difficult patron like usual. I didn’t use the menu, instead I told the server what I wanted and let her piece together what meal to get. This was the best French toast that I have had in a very long time. Also, the portion sizes were on point. The total we spent between these two dishes was $26. My wife had the Pesto Bowl and mine was labeled “Trifecta”. We are eager to come back and try more dishes. The staff were super friendly and the environment was really clean and well laid out. It was a tad bit noisy. If you are searching for something affordable and healthy this is a great stop for you!

First watch has been a great experience for a great brunch. I really like their potatoes. Have both sweets and savory dishes which both were really good.
I had their limited time Seoul hash potatoes and enjoyed it a lot. I personally like how they change up their menu time to time and continually bring something fresh.
Bustling with lots of people usually during their peak brunch time around 10am – 11am, but the service has not been any less. Keep up the great work!
I also like their interior. The wood decor and interior makes it seem like country house feel.
