    Place was very busy and I can see why as the food is delicious and the servers are friendly and efficient. I had the chili chorizo omelette and the green chilis and roasted onions made this taste excellent. Fruit afterwards helped cleanse the pallet.

    Everything's going to get lighter, even if it never gets better  Honey Chipotle Chicken Hash from #FirstWatchNorthGlenn
    Mojo S.

    One of the classiest breakfast cafe chains I've been to. I've long heard about how great the offerings were at First Watch and I've long been wanting to give this place a shot. I'm always a fan of interesting hashes, and their honey chipotle chicken hash was near-perfect. I only had to tweak the avocado out of it. I just when the marriage of a good sauce, good eggs, good produce, and good potatoes/hash works out. Scotch for her part said her Floridian French Toast was eye-poppingly good, even if it had too much fruit for me. The service was good--a bit too mindful sometimes, but I'd rather have someone who comes around a bit too often than not. We also liked that they leave the carafe of coffee at the table as that's usually what we need the most, refills. That's why I feel they could stand to come a bit less since they solved the refill problem. The ambience is great. I love the idea of community tables and wooden booths and tables everywhere. I also liked seeing the place but not super-packed so you can't get a seat quickly. Sometimes I think with breakfast places, they strive for lines out the door constantly, but I prefer a place that hovers at that good 70% to 80% capacity mark. I like being able to sit when I want to come but the place still doing well enough to be thriving. All in all, this place is great and I hope California gets their location soon.

    I like this place better than many other breakfast places they have a menu that ranges and changes so you can always go back for something different prices aren't too bad and if you join their club, they'll send you a Bogo, which isn't just 50% off but buy one get one free enjoy.

    My friend and I were looking for a healthy meal after doing Pilates and we decided to go to first watch because we both enjoy their power breakfast bowl. We also decided to get the pesto chicken quinoa bowl which we both loved just as much! We also got a Bloody Mary and I added a little more hot sauce to it and it was exactly the drink we needed! Our server was kind and always made sure we had everything we needed. It was pretty busy on a Saturday around 12:30 pm but we got seated immediately at the community table. It's a solid breakfast/brunch place and one of the only good ones on the north side of Denver.

    Lavender French Toast
    Stephanie C.

    Located in a strip mall so plenty of parking available in the surrounding lots. Wait time was about 10-15 minutes on a Sunday morning, which was not bad, but they also had available open seating on some high top tables right by the front m, so we opted for that instead. The end seats are right by the waiting area, so if you sit there you may have some people waiting right behind you. Service was good considering how busy they can be, though once you get your food we didn't have anyone come by until we were done and waiting for the check. A little loud but you can still talk to/hear the people at your table. Food has always been consistent, good, with decent portion sizes. I recommend the Floridian French toast, which has very fresh fruit. I tried the seasonal special most recently, the lavender French toast and it was just as good - although it is on the sweeter side. The side of fresh potatoes was fine, though the potatoes were a bit soggy, the sauce on top and bacon were good. You also can't go wrong with the traditional breakfast.

    Classic Benedict
    Alexa S.

    If you go early, you don't have to wait. We got there around 9 am and sat right down. The restaurant is pretty standard with booths and tables, and the additional coat hooks were nice since it was a cold day. The staff were helpful. The food was good just some different takes on items. The Benedict came on like a soft ciabatta roll that was cut in half. The texture was just not the same as an English muffin. The donut was a delicious starter while we waited for our mains. The cheesecake made it extra delicious. I know the food quality is a little better than maybe a diner, but we will probably not come as often since it is more expensive.

    My family loves First Watch so when I asked my MIL where she wanted to celebrate her birthday, she of course chose First Watch. I was able to join the waitlist for a Sunday morning for 8 people and we didn't have to wait after checking in. It worked out amazing as we were there at 9a and was in the lull between the super early eaters and those in church. All of our food was amazingly delicious. Because it was busy, our food came out a little slower and our cornbread that we wanted to come out first only came out 2 min before our meals. I also think they were understaffed as our server was a little hard to find, but you could tell that she was working so hard.

    We ordered First Watch through UberEats and the food was surprisingly still pretty good when it arrived. Honestly, I think it would've been better to eat in person. The proportions were huge for the pancakes. I had the lemon and strawberry one and it was pretty good. It was a lot of food. The tacos were also surprisingly tasty as well. They're full of flavor. I got a few bites from my boyfriend's order. The lavender lemonade was super tasty. I was happy I could taste the lavender aroma and it wasn't just added for pretty photos.

    The lavender drink
    Hav H.

    Went here while visiting a friend in Denver. The service was GREAT! The food was ok, it wasn't awful but it wasn't great either. Some of my food seemed not cooked properly like the toast wasn't toasted and my potatoes were cooked well done on one side and a bit uncooked on the other side. The lavender drink was nice and I would try this place again because the service was really good!! It might have been an off day as they were so busy!!

    Lavender Haze Drink
    Zane F.

    Food: Awesome! For a drink I had the purple haze drink, which I renamed the lavender haze drink (iykyk), and it was excellent! Fresh tasting and a strong pop of color! For my meal I had the Elevated Egg Sandwich, and it was yummy. The avocado smash was quite nice, and I appreciated the freshness the greens brought. The potatoes were also good and were seasoned very well. Service: Our server was awesome! Very kind and super helpful. Ambience: A good breakfast/brunch place that reminds me of like a little farmhouse with their menus and such. Overall: Awesome! Good food, and juice, would totally come back!

    Sue was a very attentive waitress and friendly. I had the Farmhouse Hash and it was delicious!

There is a lovely patio and plenty of seating inside but this is a popular spot for good reason! Service is cheerful and expedient throughout. We started with the Mexican cold brew coffee and it might be the best coffee I have had in the area!! It was OUTSTANDING!!! Get it! It's the perfect blend of cold brew, horchata, sweetened condensed milk and cinnamon and I think I could drink it everyday!! We each ordered a skillet, I had the chili relleno skillet with chicken and pancakes for the side and they must be putting magic in those pancakes because they were special. I'm not a big pancake person and I couldn't get enough. They were fluffy and yet they didn't fall apart and I could taste the vanilla they use in the batter. The skillet was massive and delicious and the rellenos were crisp all topped with a hearty portion of expertly prepared green chili. My husband had a different skillet and modified it to add extra proteins and also the rellenos. They were happy to accommodate. What a fabulous brunch experience! I wish I lived closer! I would certainly be a regular! This place is fabulous!!!!!

And, my, oh my, as soon as we parked, we saw the line. Thank goodness, these folks were on their game and despite a decently long line to be seated, they were able to get us in pretty quickly and continued to do so with others, throughout our entire visit. This is teamwork at its best - front and back of the house killing it. We ordered brunch cocktails (bloody mary and mimosa), shared one of their seasonal specials (churro french toast) and had entrees (chilaquiles and crispy rellenos & eggs). Yes, before you think it, yes, we ordered way too much food but took some home with us. Service was really great - fast and cooked to order. Our server checked on us often but not so much that we felt rushed (despite seeing all the folks waiting to be seated, lol). It was a great meal that we'd drive back for. Brunch House has a great vibe - a bit of an upscale diner feel with really elevated food. We will def return in the fall and maybe sit outside. Do yourself a favor, add them to your short list.

Our original waiter let us know that he would be leaving for the evening and that another waitress would be transitioning to our table. She was extremely busy with several other tables, so I asked Kellen who was walking past our table if, when he had a chance, he could simply bring us some more water. Kellen went above and beyond. Not only did he immediately refill our water glasses, but he also asked if he could clear all of our plates. We weren't even part of his assigned tables, yet he noticed that we needed assistance and willingly stepped in to help. I also noticed that Kellen appeared to be one of the younger members of the staff, which made his level of initiative and service stand out even more. He demonstrated the kind of work ethic, awareness, and genuine willingness to serve that is becoming increasingly rare. Before we left, I made sure to find the manager and personally share how impressed we were with Kellen. She told us that he was actually a recent hire, and I told her, "He is somebody you need to keep!" His attitude and willingness to go above and beyond made our experience at this location even more enjoyable. Kellen is a great example of what excellent customer service looks like. He deserves to be recognized for his initiative, work ethic, and commitment to taking care of guests--even when they weren't technically his responsibility. Great job, Kellen!

We came in on a Friday afternoon and was served by Jennai, Walter, and Majic! All three were so so amazing and attentive. Jennai recommended so many tasty things we cannot refuse - except for goat cheese - not her fault but my own. We had a couple bottles and a couple food options.
