    I've been here a couple times. Their brunch/lunch is always solid. I recently ordered the turkey burger. The staff is always super friendly, and I love their outdoor seating.

    Great pricing for the food in WI. May be I'm used to pricing in larger cities... but service was fast and great. Of course during lunch on a weekday was dominated by retirees. But had the donuts to share with 2 other people and the hash was great.

    Elote burrito

    First watch is my favorite vacation spot for breakfast. As a Minnesotan with no First Watch near me, every chance I get to go is taken. The food is consistently good and the service is great. It is always busy with good energy and morning vibes. I've heard great things about the iced coffee. I tried their elote burrito and it was full of flavor and very saucy! I enjoyed every bite. Will be back soon!!

    I enjoyed this place! Ambience upon walking in is great with music, low volume atmosphere but social at the same time. I really enjoyed the food too!! I got the trifecta breakfast combo with sunny side up eggs and chicken meat patties. The pancakes were pretty yummy!! I've never tried multigrain pancakes before but these were pretty good compared to my expectations! My chicken meat patties were also very flavorful and great in texture! Definitely a dish highlight! Overall pretty good experience! Customer service was decent and easy and the food was pretty good.

    Love the new menu and healthy options! Eggs poached to perfection with delicious fresh baguettes and just the right amount of hollandaise. Love the greens side option too. Clean and fresh amenities always appreciated as well as the ability to join the waitlist ahead of time

    Double Crunch Breakfast Tacos

    First Watch is one of my go to breakfast spots. They always have tasty, flavorful food options. The servers are always so friendly and never too much in your face. It's a great place to catch up with friends and have a good brunch! I love going there in the fall as well because they always have specials for each time of year. This year it was the double crunch tacos (pictured below).

    We went here on Monday. Had the blt with egg. Others had the French toast. And bacon. Everything was good.

    Lemon Ricotta Pancakes
    Marina G.

    Stopped by early for Sunday brunch. We got there around 9 and could get seated right away for 2. They were quick to bring coffee, water, and an additional juice. The waitress was speedy and we could pay our bill right at the table which made the process easy. Now to the food - the lemon ricotta pancakes were ok. I don't think I'll order them again because they were fairly dry, even with the lemon ricotta topping. Very basic and they could have used more fruit topping or just something to make them more moist. The watermelon juice was a nice touch, and I did enjoy it. I don't think what we got was worth the price. I would prefer to go somewhere a little bit smaller and local for what we paid.

    Came here with my husband for the first time when we were staying in Milwaukee and I absolutely loved this place! From the moment we walked in to the moment we walked out, we had stellar service and everyone was so friendly. I ordered the iced coffe, and it was smooth and delicious... I'd come here just for this! (Not really but kinda!) My husband ordered eggs Benedict and a side of sausage links, while I ordered the avocado toast with eggs over medium and a side of Million Dollar Bacon. THIS BACON. OMG. Let me tell you it's priceless and worth more than a million dollars. Basically it's just candied bacon with a bunch of maple syrup on it, but it's amazing if you like maple bacon! The avocado toast was also so fresh and full of flavor and the eggs were perfectly cooked so I could put it on top of the avocado toast and bite into it so the yolk would run a little bit all over it without making a huge mess. After leaving, I learned that this is actually a chain and that they have a new restaurant close to where we live, so I'm excited to continue my relationship with First Watch here near Chicago! Can't wait to come back!

    Cobb salad and Ham & Gruyere
    Carrie L.

    I've been to First Watch a few times, and I'm always very impressed at how nice their staff is to customers. My go to meal is the half salad and sandwich. They have a very good Cobb salad, fresh tasting ingredients. I also like how you can join the waitlist online.

    Was craving something healthy near where I was at and found First Watch on Yelp. I immediately was drawn to the healthy menu options including the kale salad! I walked in and put my name on the list. I don't often dine alone but was in the area for an appointment. I was called in about 15 minutes (Saturday afternoon) and led to a well-lit corner table. The server immediately came by and asked me if what I wanted to drink. I opted for the blackberry iced tea which was fantastic and fresh. I ended up ordering a 1/2 sandwich and 1/2 salad: the monterey sandwich and the kale salad. The kale salad was delicious. I loved the flavors and textures and immediately gobbled it up. I personally found the monterey club a little too salty so I only had a few bites. Service was fantastic and I was able to get some work done while I ate. There is a small parking lot off to the side with spaces (if there aren't spaces in the large plaza). Would definitely return and bring someone!

I like to try something a little different, so I ordered the Avocado Toast with Eggs. I requested my eggs over easy, and they came out perfectly cooked. For my side, I chose the hash browns instead of the fruit. I asked for them to be extra crispy, and in hindsight, I should have asked for them to be extra-extra crispy. They were still very good. Service: We arrived right as they opened, so there were only a few occupied tables. We were seated immediately. Our server did a great job getting us settled in, gave us plenty of time to look over the menu, and never made us feel rushed. The service was friendly, attentive, and efficient throughout our meal. Atmosphere: The restaurant has a welcoming feel. Large windows fill the dining room with natural light, and the tables and booths provide plenty of space. The noise level was low enough to enjoy a quiet conversation. I also liked how they used wood posts and beams to break up the large dining room, making it feel more intimate. Nice touch. Overall, it was a solid breakfast experience. I'd love to see a few more inventive daily specials to complement the menu.

The food is always delicious, the service is truly impeccable with well trained, friendly servers, and it's very clean and homey. I had an egg special, and my choices included two (perfectly cooked) poached eggs, three crisp on the outside sausages, a well balanced fruit bowl with fresh pineapple, melons, and grapes, and a short stack of their light and fluffy pancakes. My husband had over easy eggs, bacon, pancakes and fruit, plus we both had The Coop's rich, deeply flavorful coffee. Everything was excellent and at a most affordable price. Fast forward several hours: my daughter and her young sons were in the area on an errand, so we met up and of course the boys were hungry, so as The Coop was, once again, very close, we went there. My daughter was very happy to see decidedly different menu options for kids' meals than the usual. Two of them had grilled cheese sandwiches with fruit cups, the third had a scrambled egg, sausage, a pancake and fruit, my daughter had French toast, and I had two cheeseburger sliders with fries. Everyone loved their food and the atmosphere, and they all want to go back. Two great experiences in one day!

I saw a picture of their breakfast burrito on social media and made plans to stop the next day. In addition to the breakfast burrito, which came with a side of hash browns, I ordered cheddar broccoli soup and was gifted a brownie for visiting. The breakfast burrito is build your own with a bunch of different options for meats, cheese, and veggies. I went with bacon, American cheese, and spinach and wasn't disappointed. The burrito was hefty and every one of the ingredients stood out. This is something I would definitely come back for. The three hash brown patties tasted as you'd expect and I appreciate that they weren't cold in the middle or bland. You can definitely notice the freshness in the soup. It was thick and used actual florets of broccoli, not just the stalks. Given the size of the burrito I had just eaten, though, I wish there was an option for a smaller portion of soup. The bowl was large and if you just plan on having that as a meal it's fine, but I would have preferred buying a cup as compared to a large bowl. Hopefully that's something they consider as a menu tweak. I'm not a big brownie person, but I enjoyed it. Like the burrito and the soup, it was a sizable portion, so worth the price if you're buying one. I'd be interested in trying their lemon bar or coffee cake on a future visit as those are more up my alley. I enjoyed talking to the woman who was prepping the dining area while I was there. She mentioned that Senor Luna's next door is their sister location and that Miss Daisy's has such early hours (currently 5am during the week) so as to cater to the nearby business park. I appreciate the early hours because I can easily make it there and back over to where I work in plenty of time.
