    I didn't realize that there was a First Watch right near my appointment in Green Hills. I had a lovely breakfast cos it's a First Watch and there's no way anyone can have a bad experience there. I tried a new menu item the Carne Asada which would have been great if it hadn't been so extremely salty that I couldn't eat but 2 bites of it. Whenever I'm at a First Watch, the 2 drinks I absolutely love are the Cereal Toast and the Lavender Pea Flower and I probably shouldn't have had a drink before my appointment but they're not too strong so I didn't feel too guilty. The Waffle was absolutely perfect....I need to return to have another 1/2 waffle soon....

    We landed in Nashville and were looking for a late breakfast. Yelp suggested this place. We walked in to look at the menu and decided to give it a shot. Immediately greeted by Mia our waitress who was THE BEST! Food was brought out fast. Bloody Mary's were great and the breakfasts were amazing . The place was super clean as were the restrooms. Great place. Great food and Mia was awesome!

    Can't go wrong with breakfast here. Food is brought out quickly, and coffee is plentiful. I recommend the cold brew coffee and you'll be happy with any breakfast food you select

    Doesn't look like much when you're outside of the restaurant but it's super cute once you walk inside. We had about a 20-30 minute wait which wasn't too bad. Our waitress was very friendly and extremely patient. I was brunchin with a coworker I hadn't seen since March 2020. First watch is perfect for a small and/or large party. We had the pumpkin spiced donuts which were soo good! I would highly recommend and I'm not a huge pumpkin fan. I had the chickchanga which was very delicious. It says it's spicy on the menu, as a lover for spicy... it is not so I did added chalulua for spice. My friend ordered the breakfast tacos and she thoroughly enjoyed it. Would totally recommend.

    AM Superfood bowl!

    I don't have a First Watch in my state so I have learned to find one when I travel. This chia pudding meal is amazing and now I can't stop making chia pudding when I get home. I haven't quite gotten it just like the Fist Watch chia, but it's a delicious and nutritious journey to that perfection.

    I am a big fan of First Watch, they consistently serve solid, elevated, fresh breakfast and lunch food. It's very beautiful and rustic inside. However, during my last visit service was very lackluster. It didn't seem very busy, but I hardly saw my server and felt like I was waiting for long periods of time without seeing her, while other tables were seeing their servers more frequently. I'll still be back, because this is a great restaurant to be at!

    We love First Watch and sadly there is none where we live. Whenever we come across one we go for breakfast. My husband loves the A.M. superfoods bowl. The lemon ricotta pancake is delicious!

    Great sense of humor.

    Had a great breakfast this am with friends. Even with the heat, we were able to sit outside on the covered shady patio. Even had a little breeze. The food was good, but the service was the best. Thanks to Eddie for taking such good care of us. And when we went to pay loved the the humor in this sign on one of two credit card readers. Hope it gets its caffeine. :)

Anyways the staff is really helpful. As soon as you're seated you're greeted and given the 411 on the place being a scratch kitchen, everything made in house and this is important because it contributes to the amazing quality control. But I digress. They also have merchandise and a pastry kitchen for you to grab and go coffee if you don't have time to enjoy the delicious food at a table. Now you cannot really go wrong here. We started off with the ricotta and honey on sourdough...amazing. And that honey? I wanted to take one home so bad but I did not want to check in my bag for it so I'll have to come by again. I could eat this pairing for days. So good. We stuck to the basics, biscuits with our cravings (chicken on mine, and bacon + egg + cheese on my friends) and a curry. Left leaving stuffed. Those biscuits...you must. 10/10 recommend and will be back!

    It was busy when we got here on a Sunday but it went pretty fast. We were asked about apps and…read moresettled on just getting that. (We had other dinner plans in a few hrs) we got the ricotta/honey bread, the honey butter biscuits and a Bloody Mary. Ricotta/honey: everyone raves about this but we thought it was boring. Ricotta was cold but the bread was warm. No flavor. Added salt and pepper just for something. It gives me ideas of something better to make some day do for that I'm Grateful. Biscuits: husband and friends loved them!! Could have used more butter but still good. Bloody Mary- YEEEESSS!! It was perfect. Our friend got the hot chicken and he loved it. I had 1 bite and it was definitely hot!! And yes- very good. All in all, a good different brunch place for an out of towner. Nothing amazing that I will come back for. Great customer service!

I'll start off by saying I'm not the biggest fan of pancakes, nor cinnamon and have to be in the mood for both. Today happened to be the day. I tried their pancake sampler, with cinnamon, Caribbean and banana bread pancakes. They were all good, fluffy, airy and flavorful. Banana bread with their maple syrup, Caribbean with cinnamon. But, their cinnamon pancakes were amazing!! Those were definitely the winner!!! Best pancakes I've ever had. Their three pig omelette was pretty bomb as well. I got some of their sausage gravy on the side, to douse the omelette and that was definitely the move there. I think this is the first time I didn't need to use cholula for flavoring. The location is centralized, set up nicely, with huge open indoor space with plenty of seating outside. The service was great as well. Attentive and fast. All in all, I wish I had the time to come here yesterday, so I could try something different today. But, I took the place for everything it had and it definitely delivered. Highly recommend and I will be back, when I'm in the area for sure!
