    Chilaquiles bowl, at the Loveland location. The best!!!!!!

    The service is amazing, and very kind, the ambiance is relaxing ! The food is fantastic and delicious, I got the chilaquiles bowl yumm the best!!! And the side Million dollar bacon!, yumm,!! every thing is well served and delicious!!, btw, next day we went to the First Watch in Fort Collins and trust me the service was horrible our waiter ( with a long ponytail ) dropped the coffee at the table when he was serving and didn't clean it up after, I asked for some napkins and explained why I need it, he didn't apologize and just came and put some napkins at the table and left, and because I was so happy with my dish yesterday , I asked for the same dish chilaquiles bowl , this time was so plain of flavor, no cheese or cream on top of my chilaquiles , no meat, it wasn't a great experience, we are no planning to comeback at that one in Fort Collins!! the one in Loveland it is the best and our favorite !!! Congratulations to the chef!!!

    Chickichanga
    Ken S.

    I enjoyed the Chickichanga burrito - especially the Vera Cruz sauce - and the potatoes had a seasoning that vaulted them into the upper echelon of breakfast potatoes. My wife enjoyed her breakfast tacos too. The service was good, and it's a really nice restaurant inside. Having said all that, I had a hard time finding something I really wanted to order; the menu is a bit too froufrou for plain folk like us. (Random examples: "whole grain artisan toast with all-natural house preserves", "all-natural sour cream", "Maldon sea salt", etc.). So while I wish them great success, it's not really my kind of place.

    This was my first time dining at First Watch. Everything was absolutely amazing! The service was top tier!

    my raspberry ricotta french toast, SO GOOD

    Our breakfasts were great and our service was better. Calista did a great job getting everything we wanted in a timely fashion. Really appreciated the great service!!!!

    Half sandwich and soup. Smoked sliced ham and Havarti cheese. Chicken rice soup

    I have been to first watch several times when I come to Loveland. I love that upbeat atmosphere and the service is always top notch. Today I decided to have the two for lunch. You get a choice of a half of a sandwich, one of their small salads, or soup. I have had their tomato bisque before it is delicious. Today I opted for the soup of the day, which was chicken rice. The soup was OK. I do prefer the tomato. The sandwich was loaded with sliced, smoked ham and Havarti cheese. It had thinly sliced tomato on a nicely grilled bread. I really thought the sandwich was delicious. It had a Dijon sauce which was just right. Hubby got fried eggs, bacon, and potatoes. Also a English muffin that seem to be homemade. Yum. Had some grits that were super tasty as well. I love the way they do their fried eggs here and they were perfect over medium. The bacon very flavorful. Hubby had their fresh squeezed orange juice, which was so sweet and delicious. I will definitely be coming back next time I'm in Loveland.

    Always delighted with my morning meditation!

    There are high end choices and lower end choices. I love the 2 choices for 7.99 it's economical and delicious and just the right amount. Of course the lemon ricotta pancakes are fabulous if you want to indulge yourself. The service can be a little slow but I think that's because there are always so many people and they seem to be short of help just like everywhere these days. I love the morning meditation juice drink. Get it with the added vitamin shot for an extra boost throughout your day.

    Interior design
    Steven S.

    First Watch took over for another local breakfast restaurant with a few locations. They re-did the interior in farmhouse chic and revamped the menu. The options went more upscale/healthy and away from some of the greasy spoon type options. For example, I had avocado toast with olive oil and two eggs for $12. Good flavor and a solid portion of avocado. Overall, their breakfasts are good and they make a solid club sandwich. Pricing is a little high for breakfast in my opinion but it is good enough to make me COME BACK.

    Multigrain pancake $6 with a cup of fruit $3 . . . So so good!!!
    Erin P.

    Had an amazing breakfast this morning here at First Watch! Came in with my son who's almost 1, we shared and loved the multigrain pancake with granola and bananas added in and a cup of mixed fruit! Our waitress was wonderful as was the rest of the staff! Food came out quick and fresh! It was delicious!! Though I didn't order any special juices this time I have in the past and they are SO good! They have a new one that has turmeric and lemon in it . . . Mmmm ill definitely be trying that next time!

The bar almost resembles something you might find in a small European hotel, which may suggest they are aiming for a slightly upscale tone, though it never feels pretentious. The seating is varied, with small tables and retro chairs that seem intentionally chosen rather than bought in bulk. The spacing is better than most coffee shops, which makes it easy to settle in without feeling crowded. The back area opens up even more, and the soft drapery adds a touch of personality that appears to hint at events or just a bit of flair. The staff continues to be the standout for me. Everyone I spoke with was kind in a way that felt natural, and they knew the menu well enough to help me navigate dairy free options. I usually order the avocado toast on focaccia because it is consistently fresh. The bread looks oversized at first but is airy and soft, and the avocado and radish topping feels simple in the best way. The matcha made with water has also become a go to since it tastes smooth and well-bodied without that chalky, thin finish some places have. My partner and I visited during their Dia de Los Muertos weekend and tried a few themed items. Everything was good, and they were quick to suggest dairy free choices. Prices seem fair, even with the general bump everywhere lately. The only thing I wish they had more of is outlets. It is still a nice place to work for a couple of hours, but coming with a charged laptop helps. The overall vibe is calm with just enough energy to keep the space from feeling sleepy. It works well for coffee dates, casual catch ups, or solo work, especially for anyone who prefers a relaxed atmosphere without too much chaos.

If you find yourself coming through or near Allenspark, don't miss this true one of a kind experience.
