    Chimichurri Steak & Eggs Hash
    Jake S.

    The last two times I've been there I've had the Chimichurri Steak & Eggs Hash and you can't go wrong with it. Best item on the menu in my opinion. The food comes out hot and the service is quick. Great place to get breakfast.

    Chickichanga, missing the sauce though.

    Highly recommend First Watch if you're looking for a breakfast spot in the 'Boro! My family and I tried it for our first time today and we were all impressed. Make sure you arrive early because they get busy! We had a 30 minute wait for a party of 4 around 10am. Next time we'll make sure to come earlier and hopefully beat the crowd. We all had good things to say about the food though. Our party shared the bacon and cheese cornbread. SOOO delicious! Very light and airy with just the right amount of bacon and cheese. I got the classic eggs Benedict and a side of biscuits and gravy, my husband ordered the Chickichanga. Both of us liked our dishes! I will say that the hollandaise sauce on mine was a bit too lemony though. But I did really like the biscuit and gravy. The potatoes I got with my main dish were nice and crispy too. Our waitress may have been spread thin with how busy they were but she did take a bit to come around initially to take our order. They also completely missed the sauce for my husband's Chickichanga dish and our waitress was nowhere to be found for quite some time so we had to flag down a different waitress for assistance. Then when it came time to get the check we waited for a bit. But again, they were busy since it was a weekend morning so that was likely the cause. Hopefully next time it won't be as bad. Can't wait to come back and try more of their menu items!

    We tried the new First Watch here on the south side of Murfreesboro and it was an enjoyable experience. The food was wonderful, fresh, hot, and delicious. When we arrived there was a wait, estimated at twenty minutes. We were seated in about ten minutes. Under-promise and over-deliver is a practice I like. The water arrived almost immediately and our order was taken as soon as we were ready. Very comfortable dining room with nice soft lighting and appropriate decor.

    1/2 Sweet Honey Pecan chicken salad with Vegetable soup
    James H. L.

    Great portions and really excellent tasting menu throughout. Open early at 7am through 2:30pm daily. Amazing salads with lots of protein. Many vegetarian options available. The perfect place to grab a breakfast or brunch/lunch and always a friendly and accommodating atmosphere. If in a hurry, they support at-table checkout.

    I definitely recommend first watch because they are consistently okay there's nothing great about it unfortunately It's just somewhere good to go Just good I'm not saying that the service isn't great The issue for me is the food is never consistently good and it's never been great but my friends love the place so I'm there frequently. Unfortunately for me I always want to get potatoes and the potatoes are never cooked through they are always starchy and hard in the middle, The other issue is they cannot for the life of them figure out how to make a soft scrambled egg It's always a clump of dry egg there's nothing moist about it. I will say however the place is always clean and the restrooms are always usable and I appreciate that. The ambiance is usually chaotic and I wish they would see people with children in one area like they used to see smokers in one area and non-smokers in one area because as a person and a group of people without children it's absolutely unnecessary for us to be seated so closely to children every single time I would suggest you move families to one space and non-families to another space hoping that there's equal space for both sides So everyone can enjoy their meals. People who choose to bring their children to brunch should be able to enjoy as much as those of us who do not bring children to brunch because we want mimosas.

    This is my first visit to a First Watch. Very busy and lively ambiance. I ordered the Traditional Breakfast, and a carrot cake pecan pancake. Warm syrup!! Wow. Overall, the food was fantastic. I can really appreciate being waitlisted on the app too. Definitely a hit and I will be back.

    I love First Watch and even more excited this one is open!!!! It's right around the corner from us and we couldn't be more elated!!! The food was delicious!! I got the Farmhouse Hash and the Million Dollar Bacon (my usual order) and this was probably the best it's ever tasted in all of the locations I've ever been to! I am not kidding! The flavor was rich and seasoned to perfection! I got full a lot quicker than usual! Our server Renee was the sweetest! I will be a frequent consumer here for sure!!

    I love this location. The food was hot, fresh and delicious. The bartender/server was great. The food came out quick. Great ambiance and casual setting.

    The Traditional with bacon awesome
    Darrell S.

    First trip after finding on Yelp.Was promptly seated and given a pot of coffee which is awesome on the stronger side but really good. Ordered the Traditional with bacon and was on the table in a short time. Eggs cooked just right and bacon crispy and potatoes cooked nicely. Only one slice of toast but bread is on the thicker side and really good. So much better quality than most places. This will become my go to breakfast place in Murfreesboro.

    Ham, Eggs, toast -- what can go wrong? Nothing. Service was good. Fresh squeezed OJ is a treat.

    Had lunch there one time. Food was not exceptionally tasty, portions small, and prices exorbitant. Don't go there. Change everything.

    i think its really cool they have a place like this, i can tell the cats are very well taken care…read moreof. All cats are chill with humans and like to play. i will definitely be going back :) i hope more people can find this place & give the cats some love.

    I absolutely loved this place! The one bit of criticism I have doesn't even bring down the rating…read more As others have mentioned, it's quiet and has a very comfy ambience. There were a lot of people while we were there, so we didn't get to hang out with a few of the cats, but I'm glad they were being entertained enough by the other people~ All those sweethearts deserve the love. The food options weren't like a "traditional cafe" in the way that everything other than the coffee was prepackaged. There were some absolutely adorable cat shaped cookies that looked great! They had many other options on snacks too. The workers there were nice and cared about the cats a lot. Now for my one downside: trying to adopt. The cat we really liked was already going home with someone else. It was kind of hard to not be at least a little sad that this very affectionate kitty wasn't coming home with us, but that's just how it goes I guess. I wish places like this would have some way to identify which pets were already spoken for. There wasn't really any way upfront to tell other than finding a worker and asking. Maybe they could receive a temporary collar? Again, this doesn't ruin the experience and I would still highly recommend a visit! But if you want to adopt any of the cats, maybe let the employees know when you walk in.
