Bella was our waitress and she was fantastic! Food came out quickly and food was hot and delicious as usually. We eat here every Sunday morning. read more

The food was Amazing! I ordered the Elevated Egg Sandwich. The Bun: Lightly toasted, buttery brioche. The Protein: Hardwood smoked bacon and an over-easy cage-free egg. I asked for mine to be fried. Gruyère cheese and lemon-dressed arugula. Fresh smashed avocado and creamy mayonnaise. Comes with a side serving of perfectly seasoned breakfast potatoes. read more

Really, really good breakfast place! Senior you're on a Friday morning, and the place was hopping. I had a steak and eggs breakfast bowl. It was fabulous! Decent amount of steak, great potatoes, eggs were perfectly done over easy. It's sprinkled with Mexican cheese and a green sauce and some wilted spinach. BF had a traditional breakfast, and he said it was really good. Very generous amount of potatoes. A nice touch was how they left a thermos of coffee on your table so you could refill anytime you want, as well as a carafe of water Service was friendly. My only suggestion for improvement... The place is very very noisy. The acoustics are just really bad inside, and so it's hard to hear your dining companion. We actually ate outdoors, which was very pleasant, except we were seated under a speaker, and the music did not need to be that loud. If the noise issue could be fixed, this would be the perfect place! read more

This is a chain restaurant that specializes in breakfast & lunch. The portions are large and the food is good. The tortillas for the tacos were very thin which made it hard to hold while eating. read more

The food is always so satisfying at First Watch. My personal favorites are the lemon ricotta pancakes and the farmhouse hash. Their drinks are also really good: the iced coffees can be a little on the sweet side, but that's expected with the cold foam and flavorings. The juices and seasonal sips are great, but the portions are a bit small (the cup size plus the amount of ice). The service is always different; sometimes it's slow, sometimes it's fast. However, they're almost always welcoming and kind. They're usually very busy for brunch, so if you don't like crowds, try going around 12:30-ish. The interior is really cute and definitely gives that brunch vibe. Lots of cute lights and wood accents. read more

Stopped in for brunch today with a friend. I joined the waitlist online and checked in with the host when I arrived. Check in was simple and we were seated relatively quickly after checking in. After we were seated, we were offered coffee and given both a regular menu and a specials menu. I opted for the tres leche french toast which I enjoyed. I will say that I had ordered an iced coffee which was forgotten on my visit. BUT our waitress was super apologetic, took the iced coffee off the check, and even made me one to go! What extraordinary service! All Staff was very friendly. I would definitely return. read more

First Watch - Carne Asada Breakfast Tacos - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

Zero sense of urgency at the takeout station. Take out took an extra 20 minutes. At one point we asked about our order and the host went to the back, came back, and just like awkwardly side eyed us? Weird. I think if there was ever an emergency at this location the hosts would probably have a meltdown idk. Weird. read more

TLDR: Plenty of parking. Great seasonal food! Food (4/5): I had to be dragged here. I never wanted to go because my friends would always say that it's overpriced for an egg. But one morning, we decided we wanted seasonal donut holes & fancy eggs, so we came to First Watch. I was wrong. The Power Breakfast Quinoa Bowl $12.79 was absolutely delicious. The Salted Caramel Holey Donuts were superb. The Farmhouse Hash $13.99 was good, but the toast was mid, and the eggs were under-cooked for over-medium. Service (5/5): Service was prompt and polite. Parking (5/5): There is a parking lot. It can get packed fast, but there's an entire shopping area next to it where you can park, so it's not an issue. I would come back for that Power Breakfast Quinoa Bowl. read more

Always enjoy coming to First Watch! Everything from the food and drinks to the service and ambiance is always wonderful! It can get pretty busy especially on the weekends so I would keep that in mind when planning your arrival. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Our favorite server Tamika is absolutely fantastic! So warm and personable and always a pleasure to talk with. She has really made our experiences here even better! Some of my favorite menu items are the tri-fecta, the farmhouse hash, egg sandwich, and the breakfast tacos. Also enjoy their seasonal menu items as well as the purple haze juice! read more

Amazing food! The portions were huge and everything tasted great. Will definitely go back!

Elevated Egg Sandwich is the ultimate! Bacon, an over-easy cage-free egg, Gruyère cheese, fresh smashed avocado, mayo and lemon-dressed arugula on a brioche bun with a side of fresh, seasoned potatoes. Never fails to please! The fried egg is perfect as the yolk gushes out with every bite. The bacon is a generous amount and perfectly cooked. There is a layer of mashed, creamy avocado. The arugula is also in the sandwich and a nice touch. read more

Time for an update. If you go with ur family remember your phones. Talking is near impossible with the noise level. Not a good place to have a family meal. Service was excellent. Now to the food ordered a bacado. Omelette was dry. Almost like eating paper. Some bacon flavor, but not enough for something called a bacado. No jam with dry healthy nutty toast. Pico de gallo made with old chopped tomatoes, cilantro and hot sauce. Where were the onions. Potatoes were good, but not having hash browns is just laziness for a breakfast restaurant. Do not recommend. Awful acoustics, food is not fresh made or properly made. read more

Came in on a Sunday, and boy was it packed! I had "gotten in line" for a table online with an estimated table availability from 45 minutes to an hour and 15 minutes wait time. I was hoping for a 45-minute one to an hour wait time, but they did end up seating us a little over an hour and 15 minutes of the estimated wait time. It wasn't that big of a deal really, but I was a little bit impatient because I was starving. The staff were really friendly and calm, especially during a really busy time. I appreciated the staff's patience while I was a little bit hangry! They were quick and pretty good with the table turnovers as well. The dining area and the tables were all fairly clean even halfway through a busy Sunday morning and a full dining area. The only thing I would've liked was to have been checked on a little sooner after getting our food because I needed my water to be refilled. It took me a couple tries to get our server's attention so I can ask for more water. It's a great spot for breakfast or brunch for small or big groups. It wasn't too loud when we had gone even with several families with children. There is a bar for people who prefer and for people who like to eat alone, too! My mom ordered the chickichanga; my dad had the smoked salmon fritata and seasoned potatoes. I chose the Works Omelet with seasoned potatoes instead of the greens. I loved my Works omelet and my parents enjoyed their dishes as well. There was only one thing that we didn't like: my and my dad's potatoes were a tad bit too salty for our taste. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and now know to "get in line" for a table sooner rather than later or arrive early! We will definitely be back again. read more

Do NOT get the cinnamon roll. This is our third time here and maybe our last. The food has always been good. Not great but great selection of breakfast options. Today I got the turkey gravy biscuits with eggs over medium. The eggs were over hard. I did bring it to the waitress and she quickly corrected it with over easy eggs. Which were not right but better than completely hard without any softness to the yolk. We also tried the cinnamon roll. I got it to go. For $5.99 I expected an awesome roll. It was small and completely burnt on the bottom. Which I'm glad we checked before leaving. We showed the waitress and she said oh no completely burnt. She said the manager would come out. I guess it was him. He brought us another one only half burnt in the bottom. And the taste was only fair. Do NOT get the cinnamon roll. read more

First Watch - The "fixed" burned cinnamon roll. Hard as a rock. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

This place is not getting the justice it needs. The star rating is not accurate, this place deserves 4 starts.. Food quality is excellent and very generous portions. The million dollar bacon deserves that name. Delicioussssss, nice crunch and great taste. The pancakes could have had more ricotta but it was still good. The biscuit and turkey gravy was heaven.. wow!! you would not have known this was turkey.. Hubs omelette with chorizo was good, but there is better things on menu to try. Our waiter was so gracious, accommodating and helpful with menu suggestions.. read more

House potatoes were raw and cold (second time ) grits had 0 seasoning. Never will come back

I'd been to a First Watch one time in the past in the Cleveland, OH area - and it was really enjoyable - so I was psyched that there are a couple of First Watches now in the general western Northern Virginia area. I'm a total slut for breakfast hashes - so I ordered the Lone Star Brisket Hash - and a side of bacon, plus water. The food came out in short order. The hash was almost a work of art. Visually stunning! Would make a great photo for a jigsaw puzzle! The hash had layers and layers of "flayvors" - potatoes, eggs, brisket, avocado mash, pickled peppers, and more! The bacon was thick and meaty! Service was very good! Great place for breakfast! #FirstWatch read more

A famous movie character once said, "And in the morning I'm making waffles". More like, in the morning I am coming here. That cinnamon powder sugar is the ultimate game changer when it comes to a waffle. Without it, it would taste like every normal waffle. I honestly should've asked for more. Our waitress was super nice. It was extremely busy so make sure you join the waitlist early. read more

First Watch - Belgian Waffle - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

This location is the best I have been to- a full bar of service, indoor and outdoor tables, many different seating configuration options, online wait line, and pretty consistent service on this visit. The place feels open and bright and clean. That being said I just do not understand why they can't nail it consistently at the prices they have. The bacon cheddar cornbread is special and delicious, but the potatoes were undercooked. Just always something that makes me think it would have been better to stay home. But what does come out is delicious, and when you want a morning out of the house to eat and gab with friends, it's a welcome splurge. read more

First Watch - 603 Potomac Station Dr. NE The host, Tamika, was unbelievably rude. After I politely pointed out if we could sit at the available tables in the back because of our dog, she rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath " ... people". When I asked a coworker for her name, Tamika began yelling in front of everyone in the wait area, sarcastically offering to bring the manager. Her arrogance and lack of professionalism made this the most uncomfortable dining experience I've ever had. I do not think we will be back again! read more

First Watch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

This was our first time at this location, but we have been to First Watches before. When we arrived, there was a wait that looked intimidating, but moved quickly. Everyone we spoke to there was very friendly and welcoming. We each got a juice and our breakfast as well as some coffee. The Kale Tonic is a must have with its healthy, green flavor. The Tropical Sunrise had so many flavors fighting for attention. The Works Omelet and the Tacos Al Pastor Hash were more than enough food for us. We may ask for the pineapples to be left off the tacos al pastor hash next time since we started calling them "imposter potatoes" when one was eaten thinking it was a potato. We ended up boxing up our leftovers (including taking our remaining coffee to go). read more

Not the normal I experience elsewhere. read more

Holy crazy great! This salad was so so good, I barely spoke. It was a meal in it's self so full but stuffed my self further with the half huge turkey, melted cheese, bacon, avocado and I could barely finish. The salad though had warm chicken, pecans, bacon, carrots, spring mix, avocado with a warm vinaigrette. This was our first time We had the best waitress Tanika I had some juego verde which was fresh & yum almost as good as Playa de Carmen. I am in a food coma and glad he is driving. Way wonderful experience! And what is better than all that for $35!!!!! What? Amazing In shock at how inexpensive. They also have blueberry lemon corn bread, tres leches cake, so much more read more

Always an enjoyable experience at first watch! The Morning Meditation juice was delicious. It had tumeric, ginger and a few other ingredients to make it on point. I had the smoked salmon Benedict, which was tasty. They could give a little more smoked salmon in the dish, but overall, it was still pretty good. Loved the poached eggs in this dish. The service is always very good here. I will definitely be back! read more

Great customer service. Food is good. I will recommend to come by in slow days. Avoid weekends and holidays. Is just poor management and communication. Kitchen gets clogged, they have been opened for years and still cannot figure out a system that works. 8 tables empty, tons of people waiting. You can tell the staff don't care if the business makes Money, just telling the customers that is a 45min-60min wait and almost half of tables empty. SMH. If I'm the own, you are losing money in key dates. read more

Place was pretty busy and had a basic look to it. Went with pancakes, eggs and chicken sausage combo and the market hash. The eggs were cold and mediocre but everything else was just ok. The service needed some work and you can tell that they were just trying to get people in and out. Overall don't expect anything glamorous and I'm sure there are other options close by. read more

The restaurant was busy for a Tuesday morning. We had to wait about ten minutes for our table but there was plenty of seating available in the entryway. Yessica was our server and she was great. She was knowledgeable of the menu and was able to answer any questions that we had prior to ordering. I ordered the trifecta with a waffle, scrambled eggs and chicken sausage. My dad had the works omelette with a multigrain pancake. Our food was served at room temperature, not even warm enough to melt the butter on our waffle and pancake. I think we would've enjoyed it more if it was hot. I had a mimosa and my dad had the million dollar Bloody Mary. He said it was one of the best he has ever had. read more
