    I have never had a bad meal at any first watch location. We came here at peak time...church let out on a Sunday (which we didn't realize because we weren't coming from church) and it was insanely busy. I think we waited 25-30 mins. Once we got in food came out quick and was hot. I will return, but off peak. It's one of the larger locations I've been to, so it was packed.

    I've lost count how many times, I've been here that's how amazing their breakfast are. Always fresh, huge portions, delicious food. One of my favorite breakfast, brunch spot. Below is a few of my favorites items.

    This is our first time in Nashville, and we've been enjoying fantastic breakfasts throughout our stay. Following a local recommendation, we decided to try an early breakfast at this charming establishment. Its vintage decor exudes a delightful Southern atmosphere. The diverse food menu offers a range of interesting and healthy options. We were impressed by the quality of the food and the excellent service. We all left very satisfied and highly recommend this place.

    Blueberry and banana granola pancakes. Grits and million dollar bacon.

    If Panera Bread were a legit breakfast spot, it would be this place. LOL! A real chill place with good service. I had two big different pancakes. One blueberry and one banana granola. Delicious. Great decision. The million dollar bacon was a mixture of sweet and savory. The grits were...ok. Overall a good meal with reasonable pricing. I would recommend.

    The traditional breakfast was very good!

    This is a nice breakfast spot that's located in a great part of town. I came here a bit ago with some friends and it was exactly what I hoped it would be: great food cooked fast. I typically try a simple breakfast when I'm trying out a new place (to make sure they can make the basics well) and First Watch lived up to my expectations. My eggs, bacons, home fries, and toast were cooked well and were very tasty. The service was good as well and I will definitely be back.

    I was several times for breakfast or lunch at this location, but also other locations. There is always a friendly service. It's not a "wow", but more nice people who make you feel welcome. Another important thing is a value, specifically lunch special "2 for you for $8.99. Half Roast Beef sandwich and half green avocado salad is great choice.

    Update: We went for brunch with the entire family. Nice outdoor seating even with two kids and service was great. Coffee (hot and iced) and OJ are so good here. The waitress was very attentive and pleasant. She accidentally brought the wrong order for my husband (veggie sandwich instead of a veggie burger) but when we pointed it out she was apologetic and immediately fixed the error and brought the correct food out quickly. Of course we were not charged for the incorrect order and took it home for later (and even it was so good!) We really love this place!

    I love this spot for a good brunch. The wait on a weekend is long but so worth it! The servers are so accommodating and friendly and make the whole experience so nice. I ordered the biscuits with sausage gravy for the first time ever and was so pleasantly surprised. It was so so delicious! My husband loves the Floridian French toast which is also so good - not overly sweet and a great cinnamon flavor. You can't have brunch without mimosas! 1 drink was enough to share and it was so good and crisp. So happy with this restaurant - it's our new weekend brunch spot.

This location added some lunch options to the menu months ago. I haven't tried the lunch options, but I have tried all of their Signature Biscits and these biscuits are fork and knife huge. My favorite is the " Five & Dime" and they also have a biscuit that was featured on the Food Network (Squawking Goat) They serve Signature Biscuits, Waffles, Breakfast Classics, New Lunch Bowls, Lunch Baskets and Kid options. They also have Cafe Beverages like Coffes, Mimosas, Fresh Squeezed O.J. and Lemonade. There is plenty of free parking. The staff are friendly and the food comes out quickly. They also have Seasonal Beverages and some Seasonal Food items. It's definitely a good option instead of fast food places. Nice casual interior where you order at the counter and they bring your food to your table when it's ready.

The shopping center they are located in offers plenty of free parking. Surface parking is nearby and a garage is right behind Maple Street. The indoor dining room is large and a patio offers more seating. We've never had an issue getting a table here. The biscuits here are good. They are much better biscuits than another business in the area with biscuit in the name. I enjoy the Retro Breakfast with the tasty hash brown. The veggie gravy has a nice flavor. Overall, the food is good for a faster, casual option. The coffee here is decent too. They offer both brewed options and a variety of sweet lattes. I'd love to see them add some lighter menu options. My husband loves to eat here and I would be more agreeable to it if it didn't doom me to all high calorie options. I appreciate that calorie counts are on the menu board to help with this. Maple Street is a good option if you're in this area looking for a casual daytime option.

    A Nashville staple I somehow didn't know about!…read more I've ordered the quiche from here at work so many times that I honestly thought this was just a bakery. Turns out, I've been missing out! We stopped in one morning specifically to pick up the quiche, and I was pleasantly surprised to find out they actually serve a full breakfast. Naturally, we decided to stay and have breakfast--and I'm so glad we did. The atmosphere is super family-friendly and has that cozy, homey feel you'd expect from a neighborhood bakery. The food was fresh, comforting, and tasted like something you'd get at home. The menu also has plenty of options, so there's something for everyone. Service was excellent! We were seated right away, and our waiter was friendly, attentive, and took the time to explain everything in detail. Parking is another plus--there's plenty available in the plaza. Definitely a Nashville staple that deserves more attention. I came for the quiche and left knowing I need to come back for breakfast!

    Choose this place! 10/10 would highly recommend again and again…read more We live in St. Louis and flew in to try some unique cuisine from the St. Louis scene. Initially, it reminded us of First Watch (a compliment) but upon further review there were items we hadn't ever considered before. Let's start with the Bacon Lover's BLT&A The perfect amount of crunch. The bacon was juicy NOT WET but the right amount of fat. Perfect amount of avocado paired with the garlic aioli. It could use a touch more lettuce but that still doesn't not take away from this beautifully crafted sandwich. Always right to bet on it. Now the pancakes. The Bourbon St. Pancakes were a hit all on their own. I pieced together three à la carte items to marry a delightful blend of FLAVOR and joy. The loaded grits explode with flavor in each bite. Their grits are smooth and creamy so if you don't like textured grits, you may actually give these a try. The green onion steals the show every time. I've never heard of sage and brown sugar sausage -- the earthy flavors were a hit! We were so pleased with our meals and we will be returning before we head back home with handmade mug in tow -- they're for sale!

    Stopped in for breakfast and glad we did! Caught it on a Saturday am and didn't wait long. Service…read morewas great. Our kiddo had the kid's pancakes, egg and bacon and it was a good size portion. His pancakes were fluffy and kid approved! We split the lemon blueberry goat cheese pancakes which sounded odd BUT were absolutely delicious! Their pancake itself was outstanding. Came with eggs and bacon which were delicious. Also ordered half order of beignets which went really well with their iced coffee. If you want plain black iced coffee, make sure you mention that or else you get milk in it. Good service and great food!
