Love the food and the servers are prompt . I love the decor too and my favorite is the kale tonic beverage.

First, let me start with the coffee and food. They were great, cooked as requested and tasty. The coffee was smooth. The service was also great, nothing wrong with any of that. So why the 3 stars. I can't hear myself think. The decor is nice but so open it echos. I could hear four different conversation at once all jumbled. We arrived at the end of lunch and packed. Before we left it was less than half full and just as loud in here. Such an easy fix, just padded dividers between the booths would eliminate so much of the noise. I left with a headache. As great as the food was and the service, I won't be able to come back. Maybe an order to go would be okay. read more

Overall: 7/10 First Watch used to be one of my favorite go-to breakfast spots--especially because of their healthier variety and great seasonal options. I've always loved how clean, bright, and modern the place feels. The staff is consistently kind and attentive, and even when it's busy (which it often is!), they keep things running smoothly. That said... I was really disappointed on my recent visit. One of my absolute favorite breakfast treats--the French toast--has changed. They used to serve it on a delicious brioche bread that was the perfect balance of fluffy and sweet. Now, they've switched to a new bread that soaks up the egg batter so much it tastes like I'm just eating eggs. It was overly eggy and just not enjoyable at all. To be fair, the staff was wonderful about it and even brought me out a second one, but the manager kindly explained that it's actually a new recipe and this is just how they make it now. It's a bummer because I only ever eat French toast when I'm out for breakfast, and this was the spot for it. They still have solid sandwiches and other good options, so don't let this stop you from checking them out--but if you're craving classic-style French toast, you might want to pick something else off the menu. Would I come back? Maybe. But definitely not for the French toast. Key positives: Clean, nice staff, fresh modern vibes. Main drawback: French toast recipe change = big letdown. read more

Food portions are large and food is not your typical diner stuff. Maybe even little too unique for my taste. But that's fine. Ambiance is bright and place is clean. Service, we came in around 11am. There was a wait even if there was plenty tables open but many places does this due to not enough workers or just give impression that we are busy and can't take you now. We got seated by the host who was great. We sit down and watched multiple waiters walk by about 15 min so I finally asked if anyone is about to serve us or at least treat us like "hey your waiter be right there or something in that nature " waiter did show up ordered food and drinks same time no issues with that arrived rather fast. After we ate we needed to leave quick to catch a plane. Sit and waited if anyone comes and ask if we want anything else or just the check. No one showed up so walked to host desk and asked to pay the bill. That was easy and went painless. Overall not a bad experience but take care of customers or make them feel welcome. Any waiter walking around could have done that. read more

The food tasted a little funky, like one of the ingredients was freezer burnt. The service was good until they brought the check then they disappeared. It was very loud. They have a good variety on the menu but I think it is overpriced. read more

The restaurant looks nice, we went there and once we got seated we asked the waitress if they had steak and she was overall rude over one question. We then said we are leaving after we got drinks and she started giving attitude again. We still gave $20 to the waitress even though all we got was drinks and didn't even drink them. She was still rude after we still tipped her. The attitude from the waitress was horrible didn't feel welcomed at all. read more

I had the vacado omelette with a side of fruit . My wife had the pesto chicken quinoa bowl it was delicious . Plenty of seating .This place must be popular cause the place was packed ,The food service is great our server was great . The only down side it was a bit noise for me thought.

First watch is so good! This is my second time visiting but not the same location. The food just melts in your mouth with an incredible amount of flavor. The hostess and waitress were so kind. They were there to give you a nice experience. The setup of the restaurant is really cool too! I liked that they seem to use reclaimed items for some decor. Also they have one of my favorite black teas ever! So good! read more

Cute looking place looks barnish vibes clean open space live the booths cozy appeal. The breakfast is always good never disappoints, even their drinks are a huge hit, cinnamon crunch toast is my fav (I think I said that backwards but that's ok) The service is always fast and they are very attentive. There is a wait if it's early in the morning on a weekend but I find it easier and less wait time if you sign in to the waiting list before you leave your house if there is a long wait time I normally do it from home then by the time I get there I wait about 10 minutes very convenient! My husbands favorite is the biscuits and gravy because for once it's Muslim friendly no pork sausage in the gravy they use beef so we get to enjoy it for once. I don't have a favorite because I like so many different items on the menu but my daughter also has a favorite it's the lemon ricotta pancakes and she loves their home fries (breakfast potatoes) we go there often. I will say one item that I do get often and more so lately is their chia pudding it's amazing it's the AM Super Foods Bowl, healthy and filling. read more

Sup Yelpers? Well still basking in the FLA sunshine. Drove on over to Daytona to touch the Atlantic Ocean. Thought I'd share. Pics aren't of First Watch. Pics are of Daytona. First Watch. Chic, trendy, youthful, waaaaaay too healthy for me, but it seems to be the best spot to grab brunch in Daytona. If you're a healthy eater, this is the place. Whole grain this, turkey that. Um. Okay. I almost feel like they would serve meals to patrons on tread mills with small tables attached. Run and eat it's so healthy. Whole grain pancakes, served with syrup and butter? Then why not just serve actual buttermilk pancakes? I passed. Went with gravel and squirrel food toast. No serving sourdough here. I love the concept of eating healthy when it tastes good. Here, you don't feel like you're sacrificing flavor for health. Gotta go. Take care. read more

Carrot cake, pecan pancakes so yum. Skillets with potatoes so delicious. Service was great and Ambiance was nice.

I've been here a number of times, and I have finally sat down to write a review after our last visit. To begin, I love the food here... it's always fresh and flavorful... They have a lot of healthy choices, and some not so healthy but equally delicious choices. On our last visit, I tried the chicken, chorizo and egg tacos, and they were really good; just enough heat to keep them interesting, but not so spicy that I needed to drink the entire carafe of water at the table. I did ask for some sour cream just to cool things down a bit... The cheese grits sounded good, but other than the cheese on top had no flavor or seasoning so I found them just ok. My hubby had the farmhouse skillet and found it savory and filling. But, the reason I dropped a star is the service... There are times we can go, and it's like we're the most important diners in the room: we get served quickly, drinks on the table, food nice and hot, several checks to make sure we have everything we need, the bill comes right on time... other times it's like three different waiters/tresses can walk by and act as if we're not even there... And, it doesn't seem to matter if we're inside or out (which they do allow dogs and makes this a 4 star and not a 3 star) we just can't get anyone's attention to get served, our food, the thing they missed on our order, more water/drink, our bill... you get the idea... I say, go for the food, sit outside with your dog on a nice day and enjoy one of their adult mixed beverages which are pretty yummy... just know you'll spin the lottery wheel on the service... read more

This place is amazing and I always love their bacon. I feel like it's a special treat when I get this place for breakfast

The bad : it was early with very little customers and my server took entirely too long to come acknowledge his table. The good : the food was amazing and came to the table extremely quickly. Once the food arrived I completely recovered from the slow start. I'd recommend first watch to travelers based solely on the quality of the food read more

Tried this place out and was not disappointed. The power breakfast bowl was really good. Two things that could have been better. Coffee was eh (bitter) and grits was eh (watery, no flavor). It's a popular spot so get there early so you don't have to wait. Food did take a bit long to come out but it's was busy. Friendly staff and Ambiance was nice. I will be back read more

Let me just start with Yes! Yes! And Yes again! This restaurant has such a warm, inviting, open & delightful dining area. I love the spaciousness of the booths and tables. There are no small and tight tables! So those who worry about social distancing need not to worry! Kayla, our server is so friendly, attentive, and sweet. She offered her suggestion when I narrowed my selection and I'm glad I listened! I ordered the Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl. Not only is the presentation amazing, I can hi Becky say it's so delicious Each ingredient has its own unique flavor and doesn't overpower any of them. I chose to add the red onion and the sweetness it added was the perfect lagniappe! It's not heavy, yet filling. During our meal we never had to ask for anything! Kayla made sure we had a carafe of water and refilled my soft drink without even asking. Awesome hospitality! My friend ordered The Savory Italian, Bobs Red Meal Grits, and Savory Chicken Sausage Patties. It is definitely hearty portions. The favorite from this order is the Cheese Grits & Chicken Sausage. Last but certainly no least, the temperature is perfect. Not humid, cool but not cold. This always makes for a better dining experience. So, if you're visiting Daytona Beach you must try! read more
