    Bacado with Fresh, Seasonal Fruit - a great classic breakfast if you like bacon and avocado
    Regina W.

    This is easily one of my favorite First Watch locations primarily because of he servers. I have a couple favorites here that are just consistently top notch. Friendly, fast, and just always a pleasure to have around. With that being said, I love when seasonal items come around like the Tangerine dream - refreshing and healthy. And the entrees are usually pretty good as well. It's like a fun birthday gift in a form of a menu, bi then you have to order and pay for it. First Watch does provide you with a free entree with a purchase of another for your birthday! I just love a lot of these various dishes because it tastes fresh and it's consistently delicious. Some of the ones I tend to repeat are: The Traditional, Elevated Egg Sandwich, Farm-stand breakfast tacos, Lemon Ricotta pancakes, and Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl. It goes on. I never get tired of eating here. Prices are fair and portion is usually great! So I'll see you back again soon for breakfast, brunch, or lunch.

    BEC (special) and Barbacoa Chilaquiles Breakfast Bowl
    Jenna H.

    Both things were so yummy (BEC breakfast sandwich & chilaquiles) and the drinks/juices were fresh! Staff was really friendly & didn't rush us at all. Definitely will be going back!

    French Toast
    Richard P.

    Came here for a quick breakfast and was pleasantly surprised by how tasty the power bowl was. It had some of the best quinoa and breakfast sausage with sautéed mushrooms. I've had from a breakfast spot, and the two eggs on top were perfectly over medium. The French toast was good as well and the best part was that they gave warm syrup for us to drizzle over the French toast! The service was very attentive and the employees working there were very friendly. Would definitely visit again.

    I usually order the pesto quinoa bowl once a month & I think the ratio of quinoa to chicken has been getting way worse. I forgot to take a picture before I ate all the chicken but I swear it's like 85% quinoa. The millionaire bacon is still very good.

    Had breakfast at First Watch and left disappointed. The food was good, but the service was terrible. Our server barely checked on us, and I had to get up and pour my own coffee from the front while the rest of my table was served. Good food can't make up for bad service -- won't be rushing back.

    Chile chorizo omelette
    Kim S.

    This place is very cute inside! Our service was outstanding! Our server was extremely thoughtful quick and kind. She brought togo coffee cups and extra cholula. I got the seasonal prosciutto toast and it was great! Nice sturdy but not hard bread for the toast was able to hold the massive mound of egg prosciutto and fresh parm! Hubby got the chorizo omelet and really liked it. Everyone commented how good the side of fruit was! Not a melon in sight pineapple, grapes, strawberries, blueberries, and green grapes! We would definitely go back!

    It's a blueberry

    Spectacular it's exquisite every fine attribute of the food and place has pleased me the food also makes me feel warm not like other food but it is simply pleasing

    Just had breakfast at my favorite restaurant. I had the salmon Benedict. It was so good and the service was excellent. I would recommend to anyone to eat breakfast or lunch here.

    Monterey Club
    Katie L.

    Loved it! Loved it! Loved it! I've been to a couple other first watch locations it was my first time at this one and it's by far my favorite so far. The restaurant layout is very open and not crowded at all even though the tables were filled. Our server was great, she was very sweet and attentive. My boyfriend and I got the same thing to eat and we will definitely be back the tomato basil soup was super flavorful and delicious to dip our sandwiches into! Thank you for a great lunch!

    Ask the Community - First Watch

    Does First watch in Chandler take reservations?

    No, I don't believe they do and I don't think you actually need them if you don't go during the major rush hours.

    Does First Watch near Sun Lakes have outside seating area? We just want coffee and a place for a short chat spot. Thanks for a reply..

    Yes

    Would you ever consider building a firstwatch in maricopa, Arizona ? Will make great business here

    Yes!!!!!!!

    I'm not an avocado toast type person, but as a (temporary) non-dairy consumer, I thought it sounded…read morelike it would be worth a try. Boy was I right! If all avocado toasts were like this, I don't know why anyone would choose something else! The sourdough bread was lightly toasted but not so stiff that it scraped up my mouth. The flavors of the toppings gave it a hearty, yet sweet decadence and the aioli really sealed the deal! My server checked on me plenty but not more than was comfortable and the place itself was small, but it wasn't overwhelming in any way. I can't wait to come back and try more menu items!

Tried the strawberry colada mimosa as it was the special of the month. I only tasted champagne with hint if strawberry no coconut. Name felt slightly misleading. Food: I got the banana foster French toast - this was really good not to sweet, nice crunchy ends with soft middle. Per usual no combo for French toast so a side of bacon was $4 and so are potatoes. They do offer a platter for $7 but it includes eggs which i did not want. We ordered side of chicken it needed seasoning bad. Service was okay I feel our waitress tried to connect with us but she was a little awkward. Slightly overpriced for food that is pretty simple in my opinion.

My husband and I enjoy kicking off our Sunday close to the opening hour at 7am. We eat a delicious breakfast option inside first. My husband orders a breakfast sandwich while I don't just like but LOVE the avacado toast. If available, we take our coffee and sit outside on the patio. The coffee is full bodied and delicious. My husband is a hot mocha guy. They have ice water at the front and in their spacious backyard seating area. It is a dog friendly destination. We enjoy seeing the wide variety of furry regulars. There are free treats for them. The service is consistently friendly and on top of their game. They really know how to move a line but you never feel rushed.

My friend and I both ordered mediums with 75% sweetness, and it was the perfect drink for a hot, humid summer morning. Sweet enough to feel like a treat without being over the top. We also ordered matching bagel sandwiches. I do wish they offered a turkey bacon option, but the sandwiches were still hot, fresh, and delicious. The real star was the mayo aioli. I could probably put that on just about anything. The vibes are wonderful too. It's cozy, welcoming, and the kind of coffee shop where you want to linger with a friend for a while. My only critique is the layout of the front room. There always seems to be a line, but there's not really a good place for it to go besides in front of the entrance and the water station. It turns into a lot of "excuse me" and people weaving around each other. It's definitely a good problem to have because they're clearly popular, but I hope as they continue to flourish, they're able to expand into a larger space or rethink the flow a bit. Either way, I'll absolutely be back. Just save me another coconut brown sugar latte.

It was kinda later in the morning so my daughter and I decided to share something. It came with a piece of breaded chicken, two smallish waffles and a hefty portion of scrambled eggs. There was syrup, some butter, and the description said it came with a side of chipotle aioli, but that was not in the bag. The chicken was super crispy and tasted as expected. The waffles were tasty but my daughter said they were crispier than she would prefer. The eggs were bland and boring and we didn't end up eating them. The tots, were the best thing we ate to be honest. They were crispy, and seasoned well with what tasted like a variety of spices. I wish now we had ordered totchos instead, maybe I would have been wowed like so many of these reviews. I was a little sticker shocked too. For the one meal, with the small side of tots was approximately $21. That is pretty hefty for a fast casual restaurant. I may give them another try but will not order the same thing.

I asked for it on a separate plate and she said no worries, that's how it is served. The hash was sooo good! Cooked to a crispy crust and so flavorful and not salty at all, which I loved because sometimes hash can be salty. It also came with hash browns, which were cooked perfectly and not greasy in the least. I asked for my eggs over-medium and they too were cooked to perfection. It came with one pancake (I chose this in place of toast) and it was good size cake, with a nice malty flavor. It's sprinkled lightly with powder sugar and a dispense of warm syrup was provided as well. Really good breakfast! Wife went with the 2 egg breakfast with bacon and sourdough toast. They serve a wonderful homemade blackberry jam with the toast, which was really good and jammy. She also had her eggs done the same way as me and they were cooked to perfection. The bacon was perfect and she commented about the hash browns being cooked to a crunchy outer and tender on the inside. Everyone else said their meals were just as good and everything looked delicious. Great breakfast find and we will be back! Thank you to all of the staff and cooks!
