    Two Multigrain Pancakes and Million Dollar Bacon
    Erika R.

    Amazing breakfast experience at first watch! Came here with my family when they visited for breakfast. Our server was great, everyone was happy with their meals and I felt like I was back home in a Jersey diner. Highly recommend!

    The food we took home was excellent. The chickichnaga and the croissant sandwich were very very good. So I update my review to 4 stars.

    In a business park just off the freeway in Colorado Springs, this restaurant is a busy hotspot. We were promptly seated despite the crowds. The menu features creative breakfast options, including healthy choices, which I opted for. The fully seated area was a bit loud, despite that, the food was delicious, plentiful, and filling. Good coffee and juice complemented the meal, with excellent service by Colleen providing a great start to our day in Colorado Springs.

    Extra dry biscuit minus turkey gravy,  ( egg was removed and tossed from the plate due to being undercooked)

    I gave an extra star since I ordered delivery and I am being aware and understanding that delivery time can affect an order. My delivery was speedy, that's not the issue. The issue is that entire components of the order were missing and the quality of the food is poor at best. Turkey Bacon Gravy and biscuits, But there was no gravy at all on the plate or in a separate container. The biscuit was hard and actually toasted, or really stale? . Like an over toasted piece of bread that crumbled into crumbs when I tried to eat it. The pancakes were rubbery and had an odd flavor, my over medium eggs were completely runny and had completely run out of the yolk, with some parts of translucent egg white floating in it, not edible as it was clearly undercooked. If I were eating in the restaurant, I would've sent the whole plate back, but since it was delivered, I did not have the option to get it all the way back to the store. Like I said I am understanding of challenges related to delivery, but this meal was clearly not quality to begin with.

    Beet and orange juice tonic

    Not our first rendezvous with First Watch...they are one of our go-to breakfast places. Visited this store with some relatives for brunch. We initially were seated in the middle of the room, we prefer booths and after a quick scan, there were a couple of empty ones that were being cleaned. Asked the hostess if we could be moved to a booth, which she agreed to and then I noticed the booth by the window and asked her to seat us there, which we immediately accommodated. After we were seated, I went back up and thank her for being so kind with my pushy request :-). Breakfast orders included the lemon ricotta pancakes, the Tres leche French toast, the half sandwich/half salad option, and the Trifecta. Also had one of the morning tonic drinks with the beets and OJ...that is a great juice for the morning! Their coffee is great and service was continuous to make sure the cups didn't run dry. First time having the 1/2 and 1/2 meal and enjoyed it! I was wanting greens so had the half of a Cobb salad. Did not care for the ranch that came with the salad and Colleen was gracious in changing out the dressing to the lemon one, which really set the Cobb off. Blue cheese and lemon are good together, who knew? LOL! The sandwich was the roast beef (which was rare and cut thin) with Harvarti and arugula. I had the tomatoes held for this sandwich. Comes with a horseradish sauce that was very flavorful but not hot at all! Everything else satisfied as well and were common dishes as we've had them before. The lemon ricotta pancake is along the lines of a Swedish pancake but not so risen. Lots of lemon custard along with some strawberries for freshness. So, so good!!!! So four out of five stars...why? I'm not so quick to put out five stars, it has to be just an amazing experience and I love to do those for the small, mom/pop owned places. The chains are great if they get four stars in my opinion! Again, just this Yelper's reasoning. First Watch is always consistent no matter where you go and their menu offers tons of choices for everyone!

    Very clean place, service was just okay. Not the greatest. Waited a little longer than I thought. Refills weren't happening. Food had no flavor. Nothing wow about this place. Coffee was great! Thought I would give it a try.‍

    Barbacoa quesadilla Eggs Benedict
    Abby T.

    Very cute breakfast/brunch spot, love the decor and the staff are very friendly. We didn't wait long at all to be sat and greeted by our server. We all tried an item off their fall menu because it's for a limited time and unique options! We chose to share the churros, for it being an appetizer I didn't like that it came out with our main courses and they were cold and soggy. Very disappointing. I chose the eggs Benedict and it was delicious! The sweet and savory were just enough, and they let me substitute potatoes instead of toast. The hot chocolate was some of the best I've had, very sweet and not too hot.

    Egg white omelette and breakfast potatoes
    Jess D.

    One of the few breakfast places on the east side of town, and it gets really busy on weekend mornings. The food is great! I had an egg white omelette with breakfast potatoes. The potatoes were especially good with onions mixed in. Service was fast, and water and coffee is left on the table so you never run out.

They offer a solid…read moreselection of craft beers along with a wide, well-rounded menu, so there's something for everyone. I ordered the Mango Habanero Chicken and was genuinely impressed--the flavors were bold, perfectly balanced, and easily the standout of the meal. Highly recommend giving it a try. The staff was friendly and attentive, the restaurant was clean, and the overall atmosphere made for an enjoyable visit. Definitely worth checking out.

    Rock Bottom, But in a Good Way!…read more Came in with the fam of four--sat immediately, which felt like a win... until we realized we'd entered the Bermuda Triangle of service. No server in sight for a bit, but turns out our lone waitress was covering what appeared to be the entire Western Hemisphere. Seriously, the woman was a machine. Respect. Management, though... maybe try tag-teaming the floor next time? Hand out a menu? Bust a table? Throw a pretzel at someone? Help a girl out. Also, let's talk about the fact that this is a brewery and they were out of like a third of their beers. My top pick? Gone. My second pick? DELICIOUS. Still, how does a brewery run out of beer? Did a bachelor party come through like a tornado? Blink twice if you need hops. BUT. The food? Absolute royalty. Club sandwich? Massive and had a spicy little attitude. Jalapeño burger? Dripping with joy. Pepperoni pizza? So big we considered naming it and claiming it on our taxes. And the fries? Crispy, golden sticks of happiness. Daughter inhaled her traditional burger like she was being timed. Cool pub vibe, and once the service did kick in, it was genuinely awesome. We're chalking this up to an off night staffing-wise and giving Rock Bottom one more shot--because food this good deserves a rematch!!

    This small breakfast spot is located at a fairly busy intersection, so we were pleasantly surprised…read morethat the wait to be seated wasn't very long. Unfortunately, the service was where our experience really fell short. Not all of our drinks arrived, we waited awhile for our food, and our server rarely checked on us. Our coffee also arrived lukewarm, and we were never offered refills throughout the meal. I also had my toddler with me, and we typically ask for a plastic to-go spoon because it's smaller, lighter, and easier for him to manage. When we asked our server for one, she immediately responded with, "We don't have any." The abrupt response caught us off guard, especially since the restaurant obviously handles to-go orders. Later, she went to check and eventually returned with plastic utensils, but by then, my toddler was almost finished with his meal. The food itself was also underwhelming, especially considering the prices. Portions were fairly small, and the flavors just weren't there. The pancake was flat and lacked flavor, while the curry that came with "The Mess" barely tasted like curry and was quite dry. Overall, our experience was disappointing. Between the lack of attentive service and food that didn't live up to the price, I don't think we'll be returning.

She took a genuine interest in us, was amazing to our 7.5yo son, and gave us the low-down on the history of the 'Bunzy'. There's a lot of family history in what they make, and many of the recipes have been passed down from Nichole's grandma. The second one to greet us was Fritz. Fritz is an adorable old dog. He swung my for a quick hello, then back to his spot. We ordered three Bunzys - I tried the Philly, my kiddo had the cheeseburger, and the wife had the smothered veggie something-or-other... All three were terrific! There's a full bar, live music and such from a small stage in the corner, and an authentic feel that is difficult to pull of well - but they do! This may well be my new long term favorite eatery in the Springs! A must try for a decently priced lunch, dinner, or evening of fun!
