There was availability inside immediately, but we opted to wait about 20 minutes for a patio table overlooking the reservoir, which was worth it on a nice day. Since it was our first visit, I asked our waitress for recommendations. I was between the walleye sandwich and chicken & waffles, and she ultimately steered me toward the chicken & waffles. It came with a large waffle, two pieces of fried chicken, honey butter, and maple syrup. The honey butter was really good, but I was expecting the chicken to have more seasoning and heat based on our server's description. Overall, it was solid and definitely scratches the chicken-and-waffles itch, but I don't think I'd order it again. I've had some outstanding versions elsewhere, so this one didn't quite stand out. I'd still come back to try some of the walleye options and enjoy the patio.

We went during the busy time, but we was able to grab a spot inside. I really wanted to try the caramel apple pancakes and the Monte Cristo so my date said we should get both. The Monte Cristo was really good, they make it with their French toast and a lot of powdered sugar. I couldn't eat the whole thing so we took it home for later. The caramel apple pancakes were the star of the show! We ordered them as a side dish and would definitely do that again to share. They were so sweet and so flavorful! I'm still thinking about them to this day. I'll definitely go back and order those pancakes again and maybe get a side of hashbrowns or bacon to go with it. The staff was so sweet always checking on us and making sure everything was up to par.

While the exterior looks unpretentious (think old school roadside diner), step inside and diners will find fun decor, some of the most friendliest staff, and be treated to some fantastic breakfast/brunch menu options. The breakfast menu is simple (and in a good way). I ordered the Avocado Breakfast Burrito, smothered. The latter is a definite recommendation because the green chili here is perfect and IMHO, not too spicy. I might have added Cholula to kick it up a notch. ;). Home Cafe is clearly a neighborhood favorite, as the booths were occupied as well as the outdoor cafe tables, but I was still able to grab a seat at the breakfast bar. One thing to note is that parking can be a little challenging, especially for those needing mobility access. The front lot fills up and there are no spaces designated for ADA access. Same goes for the restrooms, which are located downstairs in the basement.

I recently visited First Watch and was thoroughly impressed by the overall experience. Here's a breakdown of what made it exceptional: Service: The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and promptly seated. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, offering helpful recommendations. The food arrived quickly despite the busy crowd, showing that the team is efficient and well-coordinated. Food: Every dish was a treat! The ingredients tasted fresh, and the menu offered a perfect balance of traditional favorites and creative twists. I highly recommend their Floridian French Toast and pork sausage--it was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The portions were generous. Ambiance: The atmosphere was cozy yet modern, with just the right amount of natural light streaming in. Soft background music created a relaxed vibe, and the décor--a mix of rustic and contemporary--made it feel inviting. Whether you're there for a quick bite or a leisurely breakfast, the setting enhances the experience. Overall, First Watch is a gem for breakfast lovers. With outstanding service, delectable food, and a charming ambiance, it's the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again. read more

The service was good. The space is extremely cramped. It seems as if they tried to shove as many tables in the small area as they could. The waiting area is also very small. They do have an option to be added to the waitlist online which I appreciated because the wait was so long. They advertise that they have vegan options but there are none. You have to basically create your own vegan meal if you don't want to opt for a salad. I got the market skillet and substituted the eggs and cheese for avocado which I then was up charged for. Seems unfair when they gave me four tiny slices of avocado and I still paid for the eggs and cheese that were suppose to come with the meal when I didn't receive them. I even mentioned no dairy and received toast that had butter on it. I also got the Morning Meditation juice, which I do recommend. I would give this place 2.5 stars if I had the option simply because of false advertising of vegan option, unfair prices, and cramped spaces. read more

Maybe I'm spoiled by the other First Watch locations, but this one is terrible. First time I've ever had a messed up order from the franchise and there was NEVER an "I'm sorry" or "My apologies" or anything, not from waitress or the guy who dropped off my correct order he just plopped the plate in front of me with my correct order while yelling across my head at another waitress. Toast was cold on the correct order, but warm on the incorrect order. And the fact that I was dissecting my omelette in front of my waitress showing her there shouldn't be any meat in it and she just looked confused says someone does not know their menu or she just didn't care. Took way too long to refill coffee, never offered water, food okay overall but it's a franchise I would hope the actual food would be similar. You compromise on service at this location for sure, make the extra 10-15min drive and go to a different location for an actual good breakfast experience. read more

Horrible experience I asked for coffee , the server brings me an empty coffee pot. I asked again politely for coffee. The server is nowhere to be seen for like 15 minutes. Mind you it's not very busy and appears they have plenty of staff. My order is finally taken but still no coffee. Order eggs Benedict with a side of pancakes. Tastes like total garbage. Beyond disgusting. I had to ask for syrup for the pancakes., the bottle is was give was so dirty it was clogged and wouldn't pour.... I asked for another bottle of syrup.... And hence no one returned with syrup and I'm STILL waiting for coffee. Finally I get my check , and I was charged $4 for the coffee , I said I never received the coffee , can we just eliminate it from the bill, server tells me they can't and finally brings me a craft of coffee. Place is terrible , horrible , pathetic and overpriced. I can't wait to tell people how much the place sucks. read more

Mediocre food for the price, long wait time for food and terrible service. Have given this place 4 tries before leaving a review and each time I regret my decision to come here. The dealbreaker is the service. Eight or nine minutes to be greeted and get water, feel ignored most of the time, long wait times for food to come, The food is underwhelming, and underseasoned. Never see a management presence on the floor, tables are piled with dishes and empty glasses, they drop the check and leave your dishes sitting in front of you never ask if you need anything else or a box and expect a 20% gratuity. I'm done paying for mediocrity. read more

Came in for breakfast and was greeted by a very impolite hostess which wasn't a great start to our morning. Luckily after waiting for a table we had a nice young man take care of us who very attentive and seemed to care a lot more about his job. He recommend some great tasting food regardless of the allergies he had and not ever being able to eat it himself. The green juice I had was also amazing even though it's a bit pricy. I would have given 5 stars if it weren't for the rough start, but still will be back just for the food and attention to detail with the service at the table. read more

Two days ago I visited First Watch in Wadsworth Blvd, Littleton. Quite empty as I came which is favourable to me. I saw avocado toast on the menu and decided to give it a try. Love at first taste! The eggs were full of fresh herbs and so creamy, perfect with the avocado. Avocado toast with scrambled eggs is the perfect start to the morning. I like the mashed avocado and smear it on the bread even more. The service was quick enough for the smooth morning. A comfortable place for breakfast, so pleasant and clean. I'd like to visit this place again. read more
