Another Great Meal! We have been to this location several times and it's always a great experience. I love how I'm greeted with coffee. We ordered the Honey Butter Biscuit Bites to start, although everything arrived together. I ordered with the Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict, which were delicious. The breakfast potatoes ( choice of side ) were average. I wish they had French Fries or an elevated starch option. My friend ordered the works omlette. He modified it: no cheese, no sour cream. We also shared the Floridian French Toast. DELICIOUS! read more

This was my first time at the First Watch in North Kansas City! It was an exceptional experience as it always is with First Watch. One of my favorite brunch restaurants to visit! Our host was Erik and our waitress was Daruny! They were very kind and took great care of us. I recommend always using their get in line feature because it made the wait so much quicker. We were quoted to wait 25 minutes and then our table was ready in 5 minutes! I love how much space is in this first watch and they have a great space to wait outdoors not like the other locations where it gets crowded easily! Our food was delicious! My husband ordered from the seasonal menu and had the chimichurri and eggs hash, he definitely recommends! I had the trifecta with a waffle, scrambled eggs and chicken sausage which was great! 5/5 Visit! read more

this was just okay to me. i would most likely never come back but service was nice and the drinks were good

We waited 30 minutes to even be seen, and had to remind them that we needed drinks and our order taken. I got the Traditional breakfast and it was decent, I had a friend get the roast beef havardi (?) sandwich and he had three bites total. Not impressed. read more

Always busy which is a good thing! Blood Mary was my favorite! It had some delicious millionaire bacon in it. I tried their seasonal double crunch tacos. The best meal I have had there. Sad they changed out this special, recently went back they didn't have it. It should be permanent! Recommend to put your name on the waiting list prior to getting there. Also before ten o'clock on a Sunday. read more

First watch is always great! They seem to have healthier options as well, which I did not go for lol . I got the biscuits and turkey sausage gravy . Came with potatoes. The potatoes were not totally soft I'd say.. probably could've used a couple more minutes to cook but that's ok. The rest of the dish was so delicious and I loved it. My husband always loves the juice here! The waiter was super friendly and nice too!! read more

First watch is a greattt place for breakfast, brunch, or lunch! I always get a kale tonic when I eat here and it NEVER lets me down. It is the perfect mixture of cucumber, kale, and apple. SO refreshing! They have a great selection of other juices that I am looking forward to trying in the future. The food is also very tasty and always is cooked perfectly. The only thing that we did not love was the million dollar bacon. We just did not enjoy how sweet it was! The service was great, our server checked on us many times and made sure we had everything we needed. The food comes out in a timely manor. I highly recommend this place to people visiting or anyone looking for a cute brunch place! read more

Came here on the tail-end of a bachelorette party and was excited to brunch! Beware that this spot is popular, so there is a bit of a wait for a table. I've been to the location in AZ so I knew to expect a large, fun menu and farmhouse ambiance. Unfortunately, I think the busy-ness really took a toll on our experience. Our waitress was wonderful, but things just kept going wrong. Multiple orders in our party were wrong and sent back - as a make-good we got some free muffins which we really appreciated. This definitely bumped up my experience. However, when I finally received my Benedict the eggs were completely hard and overcooked. After seeing all the other food debacles, I was in a rush to get out since we were about to do our long drive back home - so I didn't say anything. I know if I did, First Watch definitely would've made it right. Overall, I would just beware of the Sunday morning rush, since some of our order definitely got caught up in it. read more

First Watch - Overcooked Benedict :( - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - N. Kansas City, Missouri

First watch has been one of those hit or miss places for me mostly miss unfortunately. I keep trying them cus They have good ideas and inventive menu options, but more often than not they just are not executed well at all. For the premium prices I expect to be fairly wowed or at least happily satisfied. Each time it's just quality of the food and kind of a (I don't care attitude) I feel like by the kitchen. This chili chorizo was filled with waaaay too many onions not even kidding and probably not even a tablespoon of chorizo? The tres leches was kinda soggy and for the $$$ it really should come with eggs or a meat. read more

Met a friend here for brunch. It was pretty busy, but we were seated right away. The server was prompt and took our drink order, we only had water and then put in our food orders. The food took a little long but not extremely, and that's just fine because the food was fresh! I had the skillet hash, and everything was SOOO DELICIOUS! My over easy egg was perfect. This was seasoned just right, and the homemade jam was so yummy. My friend so food was really good as well. Our server was cordial, not overly friendly but much better than other places. I would recommend coming here, I think I like this location more than the liberty one. Liberty is more cramped read more

Oooooo!!! This used to be my go to breakfast/brunch spot. Then other awesome places opened and First Watch fell by the wayside. It's hard to compete with mimosas. The have the mimosas now. I ordered one of the skillets and it was so hearty I wasn't sure I could finish. I did. It was excellent. We sat outdoors on their terrace and it was rainy but not a drop touched us. It was a very good brunch. read more

First Watch - Ask for no avocados or onions.. I got both. Potatoes are barely cooked like you taste, uncooked potato in the middle. First time to smh - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - N. Kansas City, Missouri

Great food and friendly service! The million dollar bacon is a MUST! Most recently I got the healthy turkey omelet and it was delicious. Their juices are pretty top notch too. The ham and Gruyère sandwich for lunch is another favorite. Love the atmosphere too. It's like a casual farmhouse vibe. read more

This was my first time re-visiting this location since it was remodeled. The atmosphere is wonderful and our server Rebecca was amazing. She was sweet and very helpful and made us feel comfortable and took care of our needs. The food was great. I had the avocado toast with scrambled eggs. It was tasty and very filling. I look forward to going back for another visit maybe during the week...may even post another review for that time. read more

Great fresh food and the service is good. Servers are attentive. One of the few places in Kansas City with good grits.

This restaurant does not provide the option of ordering breakfast potatoes without onions. Even if you are allergic to onions, you are out of luck here. We were very disappointed to learn this as it is our favorite part of a breakfast. It is sad and the only restaurant we have been to for breakfast anywhere in the country that does not provide this option. Onions can be mixed in later so all customers have the option of ordering their food fresh the way they like it. Evidently, they are premade here and not served fresh. read more

The breakfast omelette was made to perfection. The egg was not over cooked as many places do as it was melt in your mouth texture and The Works omelette was delicious . I do wish they would find a better recipe for the potatoes as they were only so-so and a bit bland. I prefer a bit of crunchiness on the outside with a hint of some favorable rub or spice. The server was great and friendly . Love the ambiance with high ceilings, bright and natural light from lots of windows. read more

A Kansas City classic breakfast place that has all the brunch necessities on their menu. Every First Watch offers a wide variety of options, and when I'm craving the typical omelette or pancakes, this is the place I go. I also appreciate the constant attempts to improve and revamp with whatever the current food trend is like their addition of toasts to their menu. Many of the locations including this one have changed their appearance and now are adorned with cute benches and rustic appearance. On weekends, brunch times can be pretty busy. I tend to use Yelp to hold my spot and that works well to quickly receive a table. They also have free coffee while you wait which I can't complain about! My favorite item is the Frittata Rustica which has mushrooms and is served with sourdough bread. It also is accompanied with a side salad. All in all, the meal is filling and enjoyable. Many of the other options are delicious too, and I'd highly recommend this spot for their wide variety of options. read more

Great food. Great service. Nice atmosphere. Very happy with our experience having breakfast here.

I am a huge fan of First Watch and this location was yet another good experience to help continue my love for this restaurant. I had the Power Wrap which was a perfect start to my morning and left me with plenty of energy to begin my day. It consisted of many fresh and healthy ingredients. My meal tasted good, however the wrap was a little plain but was easily spiced up with the Cholula that was on the table. The Power Wrap also came with a side of fresh fruit which tasted delicious and refreshing. This location was cute and kept very clean, which was well appreciated. Our server was attentive and made sure our experience was enjoyable. Overall this was a good experience and will be stopping in next time I'm in the area. read more

10-10. Love first watch. Avocado toast is top notch. Chocolate chip pancakes are really good too

My friend and I met at First Watch in North Kansas City for brunch. I'd never been to this restaurant, and it was delightful! MANY kudos to Hannah, our server! Despite how busy it was (a late Saturday morning), she was friendly, efficient, and perpetually smiling. She took time to help us with questions about the menu, and guide us in our choices. She checked back frequently to ensure we were enjoying our meals, and made sure to leave a pot of coffee on the table for us. :-) We were pleasantly surprised by the speed of service, especially on a busy morning. My friend and I both ordered from the seasonal menus, and our choices were complete winners!! I had the Honey Bacon Brussels Hash, which was absolutely DELICOUS. The strong flavors of the Brussels sprouts and bacon were perfectly balanced by the potatoes and eggs, and the additional spices used were exquisite. I'd have asked for seconds if I had any more room! My friend had the Pumpkin Pancake Breakfast, which was equally yummy, and there were absolutely no leftovers. :-) The ambience of the restaurant is open and airy, with plenty of windows and high ceilings to let in the light. Many thanks to Hannah and everyone at First Watch for an exceptionally pleasant and delicious brunch! We'll definitely be back! read more

I've only ever been to the First Watch in Westport, so I knew what to expect when coming in - fresh, healthy ingredients assembled into tasty breakfast or lunch dishes. I had the elevated egg sandwich while the rest of my group went for (carrot cake) pancakes and the avocado toast. While they did forget the avocado in my sandwhich (which is actually part of the sandwhich, not an add-on), they quickly corrected it by giving me a generous side of avocado mash. Everything was delicious! I wouldn't say it's one of those "special" dining experiences, but overall it has good food, good service, and a good atmosphere. read more

Great lunch/brunch for 3 of us. After a short wait, I got a text that our table was ready. The menu has a great selection of breakfast and lunch items, and I opted for lunch, while the other two decided on breakfast dishes. I got the Chicken Salad Melt - served open faced on a meaty piece of bread. It was a wonderful blend of chicken, fruit, and veggies. Very tasty! I opted for the side salad, a nice, light offering with a tasty mix of greens. Another in our party got the Breakfast Quinoa Bowl. It comes with eggs, mushroom, tomato, and kale. Very tasty as well. Another in our party got a Ham and Gruyere Omelet. It comes with a side salad and two of the 'meaty' sized pieces of toast. The omelet was fluffy with tasty smoked ham and cheese. The two breakfast eaters also got the Blue Booster fruit drink. It was an interesting blend of juices, with the grape juice sweetness balanced by lemon and basil. It was still a bit sweet for me, but the other two really enjoyed it! Service was great. I got a soda and every time it was close to the bottom, another glass showed up at our table. You pay as you exit at the register and the food comes out fast. Great spot - definitely recommended. read more

My husband was craving a Denver omelet. He quickly scanned the menu, then ordered. The Denver omelette was perfect. He asked our server, Zander, where it was on the menu. Zander smiled and said "It's not. I googled it and we had all the ingredients, so the cook made it for you". Talk about an extraordinary server! Way to go, Zander! This was at the West Olathe location. read more

Came for breakfast with family during the holidays. Service was a roller coaster (one moment it was amazing, other times we had to chase down a server after sitting with empty plates for 10 minutes). The menu is huge! Lots of classic and innovative breakfast options. I love that they have cold brew. The food came out pretty quick. I had the eggs Benedict. It was ok, but not great. The sauce could be a little richer and more flavorful. It's the holidays, so I'll give them a slide. read more

Server was attentive and great aesthetic! I had the Eggs Benedict florentine, and my husband got the BLT Benedict unfortunately the Eggs are way overdone! The hollandaise sauce was good but I wouldn't order it again. The waffle and the spiced donuts were pretty good. Overall it's not too bad! read more

Took over 25 minutes to get a server to bring me even a water. Not impressed, will never be back.

I'm a fan of First Watch. Great breakfasts, great lunches, and seasonal options too. Get the pumpkin pancakes- delish! Today, I had the sweet honey pecan salad- nice mix of greens and pecans and that sweet dressing. Another had the roast beef and havarti sandwich. He was quiet and I couldn't figure out if it was something I said, or what. Turns out the sandwich was delicious and he was caught up in eating it. We had the soup of the day which was broccoli-cheddar-really good. I wanted to take home the rest of the soup pot to have for the rest of the week! The servers do a great job and work hard here. Take good care of them when you stick that card in the POS terminal..... read more
