    Traditional breakfast
    Shiree C.

    Service was great! Food was excellent. They have a good variety of healthy options and it was good to have a clean breakfast to start the day. Recommend the maple bacon with Cheyenne pepper!

    Summer brisket hash

    Quick and delicious breakfast. I really love that they've expanded their seasonal offering menu and now include breakfast cocktails. I stuck with an old staple, but my dining partner tried the summer brisket hash and thought it was delicious.

    Turkey Skinny

    It was my first time visiting First Watch, and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised. Me and my team arrived as soon as they opened at 7am. The waitress was very nice and seemed to be super excited to be at work (bless her heart....). I ordered an orange juice & the Turkey Skinny - it consisted of an egg white omelet, turkey sausage, cheese, spinach, & onions. It came with home style potatoes and artisan toast with homemade preserves. It was all very tasty! Whenever I'm in the area again, I'm definitely visiting again

    Menu as of 06/30/18

    Oh First Watch~ how I love thee Service is always great, ambiance is typical for a brunch place, lots of windows. Great menu with additional seasonal menu items. Everything that I've tried at first watch has never disappointed me. My favorite is the farmhouse hash with a side of the morning meditation. Be sure to put your name on the online waitlist if you want to be seated sooner!! The wait is usually not that long but on extremely busy days it helps! Really, you can't go wrong with brunch and First Watch is a testament to that. (This is coming from a non breakfast person)...Enjoy!

    What a gem in Ohio! Our family who lives in Ohio brought us here on our last day. The moment I walked in, I knew our breakfast was going to taste really good. The aroma from the kitchen just lingered a delicious perfume. The restaurant does a good job of distancing the tables inside and outside the restaurant. After browsing the menu with many different options, I decided to go with the chickichanga which reminded me of a wet breakfast burrito. The tortillas was wrapped in a egg jacket and envelopes a mix of chicke breast and chorizo. The flavors were outstanding. The meal also came up with a side of fruit and potatoes. I love that the fruit was a good mix of grapes, pineapple, and water melon. No cantaloupe or honey dew...thank goodness! Finally, the potatoes. They were absolutely the best potatoes I ever had. Well seasoned with a nice camelized crisp from the sugars in the potato. I am drooling as I typed this. I would love to come here again!

    Biscuits and turkey gravy, with 2 eggs over-easy, and breakfast potatoes. Mmmmmmmm!

    **** Review 52 **** Always love this place! Staff is friendly, and very attentive. I'm not a coffee drinker, but this is one of the few places where I get it. The omelets are so delicious, I can't seem to get anything else there. All the food tastes fresh, since you're able to get side salads or fruit, and most omelets also come with toast. I will have to force myself to try something other than the omelets next time. But in the mean while, if you're looking for a good omelet, try the Bacado which is made up of Bacon, avocado and Monterey Jack. Topped with sour cream and served with a side of housemade Pica de gallo. Or the Works, made up of Ham, bacon, sausage, house-roasted Crimini mushrooms, onions and tomatoes with Cheddar and Monterey Jack. Topped with all-natural sour cream. Can't go wrong with either one.

    We really enjoyed our experience and the food. I brought my 5 year old granddaughter Alivia. We have been taking her there since she was an infant. PJ is her favorite server. They treat us like family.

    Watermelon Juice (Summer special)

    Like the other First Watch locations in the city, this one is good and we enjoy it. It's super convenient because it's not to far from our house. I also love how they have the waitlist option here on Yelp. The day we went that came in handy. When we arrived there were quite a few people waiting but we were seated immediately because I had put us on the waitlist before we arrived. It's an awesome feature on Yelp that works. The staff was nice. However, our waiter wasn't that good. Our food took 30-45 min and she came over maybe once if that within that time. Once the food arrived she came again maybe once and that was it. I definitely only gave her a 10% tip instead of 20% because she wasn't attentive at all. I ordered the Avocado Toast and the Million Dollar Bacon. My husband ordered the Ricotta Pancakes. I really enjoy their Avocado Toast and Candied Bacon. It's the perfect combination, especially when you add the basted eggs that come with the toast. It's so good! My husband always orders the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes. The pancake is huge, moist and the lemon custard adds the perfect touch. This is also another delicious dish. You can't go wrong with the pancakes or the toast.

    Chickichanga!

    Host not very engaging when I entered? Service was not what I expected for such an upscale concept? Average at best.

    If you are looking for a coffee spot to do remote work at, I highly recommend this spot! Was…read morewalking around downtown Lebanon doing some window shopping with my sister and we stopped in here once. She told me that there was also an upstairs people work remotely in. So me and my boyfriend visited the place with our laptops to hopefully get some work done and also enjoy some coffee. Service was super quick and upon going upstairs it was very quiet outside of small chatter. He was able to get some video editing done and I was able to do some personal project stuff. We stayed there for a few hours and noticed it started getting a bit more busy at 2 pm with people setting up laptops. But personally I liked it, as it made the vibes more focused. The coffee itself is pretty standard but I would go again for the environment.

    Typical "tell the customers what they want to hear" business. It's hard to make a bad cup of coffee…read morebut the few times I've given this place a chance it's never been good. I guess my standards are a bit higher. Fitting for Lebanon though, standards seem to have gone down the drain for most businesses. Asked if they had fresh roasted coffee, was told yes they get it weekly. Paid $20 for 12oz bag of coffee that could compare to Folgers from Walmart. Not fresh at all, and yes to the owner or employees reading this. You can tell when you brew fresh roasted coffee. If you want fresh coffee I recommend Script or Contemporoast. Can't tell if it's a coffee shop or a knickknack shop. Figure it out.
