They need to lower the prices or up the amount of food they serve but we were very disappointed with our first visit here. The pancake was blah and the portion not adequate for the money charged. My donut bites needed the sauce, otherwise I wouldn't have had them. We won't be going back. read more

Excellent brunch spot in the downtown area. Had the avocado toast with a side of bacon. Food was delicious and service was prompt and polite. read more

First time eating at First Watch. It was outstanding! Great food! I tried one of the seasonal specials and it was delicious. Our server, Josie, was delightful!! She was super accommodating and friendly. Give this girl a raise! We will be back! read more

Loved the place. First time my wife and I have eaten at one. Delicious! I got the Skillet Hash - Parma (Italian Sausage, potatoes, eggs, etc.) and she got the Chia granola pudding with fresh fruit. We also go a side order of crispy, perfectly cooked bacon. Both of us really loved the dishes. We will be back soon. The place was clean, the service polite and speedy. And the prices were reasonable for an upscale breakfast eatery. We will likely go back tomorrow. read more

Bad management here. They kicked out the StartUp Breakfast group for no reason!! We've been attending these for the last 2 years! That's okay though. They've moved over to DV8 Kitchen across the street where it is appreciated. So if you're reading this, and want to give your business to a place that supports local, go to DV8 Kitchen at 867 South Broadway, right next to Pie Five Pizza / CookOut / Jersey Mike's. read more

This is the first time I have been here and it was excellent. We walked in and were immediately seated then a few moments greeted by our server Jazz who was fantastic! We ordered and our food came out in no time. There was so much food I couldn't finish, which made me very sad. If you have never tried first watch it is a must! We definitely will be coming back. read more

Came here for brunch on Saturday. We were seated promptly, but sat for several minutes before my husband approached seven employees at the host stand, asking if we could get some service. Our server was taking care of a large table and wasn't able to get to us. Unfortunately no other employee was aware that we were left stranded. After speaking up, service turned around for the positive quickly. The food was tasty! I had the Key West Crepeggs with fresh avocado and bacon and thought it had nice fresh flavors. The three others at the table all said they enjoyed their food. read more

They definitely had me at "pumpkin pancakes." Pleasant service, quick arrival of food, and a very filling plate of perfectly prepared breakfast. The fresh squeezed orange juice is lovely. Will definitely return for another visit soon! read more

The food and atmosphere were great! My server Hailey was wonderful! She was on top of everything all while smiling and very polite! I will definitely be back! read more

We're vegan so we ordered the avocado toast with hash instead of egg, the power bowl and a fruit bowl. The power bowl was out of this world! I loved the chia coconut pudding base. It was so thick and rich! read more

The food was great but the service was EXTREMELY disappointing. Not worth the $60 we spent. We never got any water, we were not asked if our drinks needed to be refilled, weren't asked how the food was, if it came out okay, or if we needed anything else. No one seemed to pay attention. Once we did flag someone down to get syrup, my pancake was cold and I had to walk to find someone to get me a box. Overall not a great experience. Maybe try another location. read more

Excellent breakfast. Great service. Not sure what some of the bad reviews were about. Clean, prompt service. Thank you!

Lovely environment with welcoming and hardworking staff. We got The Elevated Egg Sandwich and Floridian French Toast! The side of fried potatoes were a hit. Will be back! read more

Waited 20 minutes, no drink. 10am on a Thursday. BAD service, poor management. Plenty of other options to eat breakfast

This place is great!! Very friendly service and the food never disappoints! Ask for Jordan she's the best!

First watch is a great place for breakfast or brunch with friends and family. They have many choices to appease even the pickiest of eaters. Lots of healthy choice options as well. Seating is a little crammed feeling and the tables are cluttered with too much stuff to have the room I like to eat and not feel crowded. read more

A good place for brunch. There are a lot of healthy options, their fresh preserves are really good. It is a little pricey for what it is.

Terrible customer service. Got a sandwhich with one egg on it. But the egg was maybe covering .2% of the bread and there was globe of gruyere cheese. I of course tell the waitress I am unhappy with eating a cheese sandwhich and she offers me another egg which she charges me for... I bring up it up the front desk and they say and extra egg costs more even tho the original plate did not have enough egg on it... if you want repeat customers this is not how you treat them. read more

Clean mission style furniture, kind of a healthy vide going on. Relaxed atmosphere. ordered trifecta scrambled with turkey sausage and pecan waffle. eggs were really good , pancakes were good.ive had better but not bad by any means. will definitely try again to see how the rest of the menu taste read more

This is a great breakfast place. Everything I have had has been terrific. My favorites are the chicken salad sandwich with tomato basil soup, the eggs benedict florentine, and the avocado, bacon, and tomato hash. You will not find better seasoned breakfast potatoes! My boyfriend keeps coming back for the chickichanga. The staff is generally friendly and attentive. The only time we received bad service was when we came during a rush and had a new waitress. It happens. read more

First Watch has some of the best brunch food around, I love their creative dishes and healthy plus yummy options. Ella is the best! Great service too even on a busy weekend. Keep up the good work read more

One of my favorite brunch spots. They always have great specials, so be sure to check out the chalk board before sitting down. They also have some funky hours, so be sure not to stay too long, it can be easy. read more

It's was fresh and Amazing I loved the food will be back again great service their eggs were fresh and cooked just right how I asked them to make it read more

I took my friend here today. It was her first time. She loved it! I always do! The food is delicious and the service is just as great. Our waitress (Nancy) was so sweet and attentive && the manager was as well Love First Watch !! Never disappoints ! read more

Very disappointed today when my friend found a black curly hair in her eggs - turned my stomach so I couldn't even finish my breakfast! They took her breakfast off the check but didn't address me, guess they figured I should have just stomached it!!!!!!! Will never go back read more

Amazing food, extremely friendly waitstaff. The Spring Hydrate juice was fantastic. So glad my wife and I stumbled upon this place while visiting Lexington. Highly recommend. read more

First Watch - Lunch combo, half a Monterey Turkey Club and 1/2 Cobb Salad. Amazing lunch! - Cafes Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

walked out. place almost empty and they seated us beside the bathrooms/kitchen. shame always a favorite-but will never go to the Lexington one again. read more

This was a fabulously health option for diner food breakfast. Just went today and enjoyed cheesy grits and fruit, my wife had the triathlete (an egg white omelette packed with veggies). Our kids enjoyed huge chocolate chip pancakes, that did not look over packed with chocolate. The service was excellent, courteous, and quick. The gladly made a few substitutions for one of our party with an egg allergy. I would nosh here again in a heart beat and wish we had one of these where I live. read more

Nice place for breakfast. They don't over serve you too much that you can't finish. Just the right portions. Belgium waffles are outstanding all breakfast ingredients are Fresh. Morning juices are tasty. Thee service staff is outstandingly friendly. read more

We have been coming to First Watch on Broadway since it opened several years ago and have never had a bad experience. We like it because they offer healthy-and delicious-choices. Today i had the bacon avocado omelet with fresh pick and it was mmm. read more

I am very sad to write this review because I have dined at First Watch many times and never had a similar experience, but I was really disappointed with the service I had on Sunday. My mother and I went to brunch is is a special treat for us and decided to visit this establishment. We were told that it would be a 45 minute wait which was fine, but when we walked outside we noticed empty tables on the patio and informed the hostess that we would be more than happy to sit outside. She stated that is would not decrease our wait time and that it would still be a 45 minute wait. My mother and I waited over an hour for a table and in the meantime multiple tables outside stayed empty as well as a few tables inside. Once we were seated our waitress, the two times we saw her, was very short with us and slammed our glasses on the table which was very rude. On top of that, my coffee mug had stains on it from the previous drinker... Our food was then delivered by another waitress who then was unsure if we even received the correct dishes. I have to say that I got the AM Superfood Bowl which was very good, but at this point I was completely frustrated with the service I don't think I enjoy it as much as I could have. I believe it is safe to say that I probably won't be visiting this particular First Watch establishment again, which I hate to say because overall I have been happy with every other First Watch experience in the past. read more

Worth the wait! Phenomenal service and delicious food! Always greeted with delightful humans, though on a Sunday for brunch I have waited up to 45-60 minutes but their complementary coffee, free wifi and hospitality make the wait go by quickly. I have never been disappointed by their menu or food... Whether that be carry out or dining. read more

Best Belgian waffles I've ever had but it's over $7 just for 1 and their eggs aren't the greatest

I love their breakfast items. They have many options for light eating or for regular eating. I do wish they'd always carry their açaí bowls year round as well as the chorizo hash they had as a special last summer. That would be great read more

I love this place. their food is so good if you're looking for healthier options. They also do really fast pick ups so you can order out! The staff is always so friendly and accommodating. Try their Kale Tonic; literally one of the best juices I have had. read more

My second time here was not as enjoyable as my first. The first time I came to this location the service was slow but reasonable, the food was nicely prepared and the experience was pleasant. This time, however, it took 10 minutes before anyone came over to take our drink orders! The eggs were overcooked and the rest of the food was cold. Very disappointed! Would be one star if only based on this visit. read more

Seated immediately at 10:45 am on Saturday. Kitchen/server service needs to improve. Meals did not arrive at the same time - 3 arrived together and 10 minutes later the other two came to table. Server had to be reminded about bread which was to be served with first group of meals. Food was tasty and presented well. read more

First Watch has been around awhile and I hadn't made the effort to try it until today. I nearly didn't make it through the front door thanks to a disgusting man sitting in a wheelchair at the front door having just come out of the building. His injuries were obvious as he was barely covered by clothing. His disability was exposed as he cleared his sinuses and spat RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE DOOR. A shout out to that guy--bad manners are a handicap only if you let them be! Ugh. We went in despite the nasty little man. I'm glad we did! The nicest host seated us and a waiter immediately brought menus and utensils. The menu, while not extensive, is varied and interesting. We chose soup and a sandwich. He had Italian wedding soup and a reuben whole I ate a BLTE and tomato basil soup. We agreed everything was very good (especially their tea). We will definitely be back and hope we see a more pleasant entrance next time. read more

Solid, healthy breakfast. Friendly service. I had the Forage omelette. Was good but the mushrooms weren't the ones advertised. Tasty none the less. Daughter had Floridian French toast which was also nice. Would put them in a solid second place in our list of Lexington breakfast spots tried this week. read more

Both times I have been to this restaurant I was happy with the service. I was seated right away and no waiting. The food was delisious and I will go back anytime. read more
