    My first experience at First Watch was lovely. We arrived just after 8am on a Sunday morning and had no wait. The donut holes for a starter were yummy. I enjoyed my tri-athlete omelette. The service was good.

    My mom was doing rehab at the nearby rehab center so i stopped in for a quick breakfast, the food was good the staff was friendly and the coffee was hot and in a real cup! Definitely get some of the million dollar bacon, lots of options from healthy bowls to bacon covered in gravy you should find something you like or that fits your dietary needs pretty easy. I really enjoyed my Avocado toast with eggs and Black coffee!

    The service was phenomenal.The minute you walk in smiles everywhere.And greeted always go to available seating. The atmosphere very qui normal.In fact for a place of this style and size guys very comfortable for group settings. The food not only arrived very quickly made to order and delicious.But very healthy.You definitely get your bang for your buck here.

    Regular pancake, they're big!

    We were in the area and this was one of the best rated places to eat with a big group. The food was good but now outstanding, the eggs seemed to be overcooked but still edible. Their service was very attentive. The decoration was cleaned and modern farm style.

    Great coffee and service! We had no issues getting a table and being seated right away on a Saturday morning. We all enjoyed our food, however, we didn't love that the bread for the eggs Benedict was a ciabatta roll. It doesn't cut as easily as an English muffin.

    A.M. Super foods bowl. Coconut milk chia seed pudding with bananas, strawberries, blueberries, and granola.

    I pass by this place all the time when I'm in the villages, yesterday was my first time coming in…read more The environment is very nice and inviting, it's super cold inside so bring a jacket or a blanket. I didn't know that you have to sign in with your name and how many people are in your party. There's not a lot of seating so space is limited. It took about 20 minutes before we got our seat. The menu sounds really good. The portions are huge, and pretty price for the food. I was surprised. I ordered the cherry pancakes because it said it came with a cherry glaze so I thought it would be like a powdered sugar and milk glaze no the fake cherries and jam you buy in a can. I wasn't a fan of the cherries but the pancakes were actually very delicious I enjoyed the regular pancakes. The potatoes were not crispy and flavorless, I wasn't the biggest fan of the eggs. My boyfriend enjoyed his gravy and biscuits a lot I tried it and I thought it was a little undercooked but he liked it a lot. The coffee was good nice service. For this food we sort $39 before tip, and I was waiting for like 15 minutes before I realized you have to take your receipt to the cashier however I didn't get a recipe so I just walked up there and my waitress lost out receipt. Overall I give it a 3/5 maybe you will like the food. Try it out!

The omlette was overcooked as were the potatoes. The sausage had a lot of grizzle and the corned beef was fatty. As for the ambiance, it is the same as always and nothing unexpected.

I…read morehope the cafe takes this feedback to heart because this area really needs a great restaurant and coffee shop, and this spot has so much potential. The location is beautiful--right on the water--with a cozy, inviting interior that makes you want to stay a while. I've been here before, and my first visit left a better impression. The coffee was great that time, and I was excited to return. Unfortunately, my second visit didn't live up to the first. We ordered three coffees: the Snickerdoodle, Honey Bee, and Bean Redeem. All of them were overwhelmingly milk-forward with very little actual coffee flavor. The Snickerdoodle, which was supposed to have cinnamon notes, tasted mostly like vanilla and caramel. The Honey Bee didn't taste quite right, and the Bean Redeem lacked the white chocolate and toffee flavors advertised--it just came across as more vanilla. As for the food, we tried a variety: the biscuits and gravy, Sunrise Supreme, the Classic, and the Reg. Sadly, nothing stood out. The Reg and Classic were okay but lacked seasoning or anything memorable. The biscuits and gravy reminded us of the older McDonald's version--definitely not homemade. The Sunrise Supreme came on mini biscuits that were dry, and the sandwiches overall were just average. A recurring issue we noticed was that a lot of the items seemed prepackaged. The baked goods in the case looked like they came from Sam's Club. If the coffee had been excellent, we could have overlooked that--but with both the drinks and food falling flat, it's hard to justify a return visit right now. That said, I really want to see this place thrive. There's a great opportunity here to make it special: seasonal menus, house-made syrups, stronger flavor profiles in the coffee, and maybe even partnerships with local roasters and bakers. Showcasing fresh, local ingredients and dialing in the coffee recipes could turn this into a true gem. I'll be keeping an eye on this spot and genuinely hope to update this review in the future with a better experience.
