First Watch - One amazing bloody marry ! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Port Orange, Florida

This location lacked warmth and the hospitality was subpar. My MillionDollar Bacon looked more like $.50 cent Bacon and was sent back 3x due to how ridiculously burnt it was. The waitress even gasped as she was serving me the plate and saw the the expression of shock on my face. We had to wait for a while for our food and when we were finally served the orders came out one by one ! It was a terrible experience and will not return . read more

Went here before getting on the highway to head home. I got the traditional breakfast and my husband got the waffle breakfast. Similar to many other First Watch locations, the food was consistent, the staff was friendly, and there wasn't a long wait - even on a holiday weekend. read more

This place has good food and servers , but here's my only gripe. I'm only a few bites into my meal and the server brings my Receipt with the " take your time but hurry up" speech. It's for you convenience. No rush , blah blah bullsh* t you killed my experience. Your place isn't cheap and that's a horrible policy. I've been there several times and it finally got to me. The place was damn near empty. What is the return on investment of that policy. Quantify the difference please and let us know. Will there be some old folks that will buy a coffee and be there all day? This isn't a McDonald's coffee. This feels like some corporate duche bag smart stupid idea. Let's rush to the red light. This policy doesn't match what first watch supposedly represents. read more

First Watch - Floridian French Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Port Orange, Florida

I LOVE the style and food. Not a fan of the two people I had to deal with. Our waitress and cashier seemed SO bothered by our presence. Like we were inconveniencing them. We thought it was just our waitress but the cashier acted the same way. We asked for extra butter and jam and by the time we received it we were done eating. I will definitely try going again. Maybe it was just an off day. But I will be returning for the food not the staff. read more

I've been here a few times now and the food is always great and the staff is always very accommodating. Lots of variety in the menu and everything tastes fresh and whole. Recommended read more

The food and service were on par compared to other First Watch locations, but the men's bathroom was disgusting so ruined the meal for me.

The eat areas were not clean, floor was unswept, seats were dirty. The personnel were custome friendly but everything seemed rushed similar to a fast food chain. I asked for three waters and was offered three dirty glasse. read more

Came here with high hopes disappointed immediately with poor customer service, (though there was an attempt by the hostess to redeem, and actually admitted it was her fault, as she forgot to tell our server) was ignored for quite some time on the patio. Coffee was good and strong, yet not exactly piping hot in the carafe. Ordered an omelette eggs over cooked, not much to the taste (browned eggs chap my hide) fresh greens side with supposed fresh lemon dressing weak and tasteless, and the greens lifeless wilted and just old, the whole staff including chef need to go to food handlers class as this is the kind of stuff that causes food poisoning, should have never left the kitchen or served. Pancakes were decent, as well as the lemon curd however charging premium prices and then adding on a charge for real maple syrup?! Mind you it was quite a blustery day but the patio was Filthy watched server after server coming in and out without attempting to pick up any of the trash just floating around, hard to find good help these days I guess, Poor excuse). Claim to be farm fresh this place is pseudo- at best, just another mediocre attempt at real craft and farm to table freshness. US foods, in your artificially flavored creamers really, at least try and hide it that gives way to the rest of the quality of ingredients,.if you're willing to really dig. Keep practicing with somebody else's money! read more

I'm truly disappointed in today's experience me and my fiancé went for breakfast & we couldn't even get a hello, no type of communication whatsoever & then a party of 15 sits & gets service before us! are we invisible? what a slap in the face ! I hate the feeling I got when I kept seeing servers pass by and not one acknowledgement towards us. Very frustrating when all you want is food. read more

The service is always the worst at this location. Food used to be good but that has also changed. Not sure why but the last three times there have not been great read more

Food is so flavorful and just FEELS healthy. The extra thick bread is addictive. The omelette choices are terrific. I like when there are seasonal specials. read more

My first visit here. I was checking it out for a group lunch later this summer. Nice relaxing atmosphere. Intriguing menu. Great brunch options. I was here at lunch so I did a " Pick 2" of the ham & cheese melt and the avocado chopped chicken salad. Both were delicious! The coffee is never-ending, and very good. I will definitely be back. This location does not serve alcohol. I think someone said other locations do. read more

First Watch is always a solid choice. The food is typically very good, and the waiters and waitresses are attentive even when busy. This was my experience today. I was greeted by a smiling woman who made me feel welcome and, by dumb luck, was able to seat me immediately in the midst of the busy restaurant. My only Point deduction is for the breakfast tacos which were very tasty, let me say. However, they were so far from authentic that I was disappointed. The chef could have used a squeeze of lime, some torn cilantro, or some red chillies to add a bite of flavor. A taco should have some spice to it. It's actually part of the food science of what makes a great taco. The first bite should have some heat so that it gets your saliva glands going, and then it makes you want more. Outside of that observation, it was a Flawless visit to a great place. The hostess even thanked me for being friendly on the way out the door. read more

My server Elise was awesome! She took my order and my food came out promptly and exactly as I wanted. She checked on me several times and was extremely pleasant, as was the hostess that greeted & sat me and the runner that brought my food. The food was very good. Nothing extraordinary because I didn't order anything like that, except the Morning Meditation, which is the bomb! Lost a star for the fake butter! I always enjoy the atmosphere at First Watch. It's comfortable! read more

Only getting a 1 star fir the bacon everything else I could do without the waitress wasn't wearing a mask over both nose and mouth never let me finish a sentence and complained that I wanted to much lemon for the price tag of $50 for bacon, avocado, eggs and an omelette not worth even saying the name of this place disappointed is not the word that would describe how I just felt like the grabbed my wallet took whatever they wanted and then complained we didn't leave her a good enough tip for our meal... $50 + $20 tip I wouldn't complain and to be honest with you I don't think I would have tip her but my husband insisted read more

Anyone in or near Port Orange, Fl. First Watch is a must for great tasting breakfast or lunch. Our server Haley was excellent and her recommendations were spot on. Not only was the service great but the restaurant itself was very organized & clean. We even had a delightful visit from Carol the restaurant manager to welcome us and check to make sure everything was acceptable. The ambiance alone will have us returning as much as possible. read more

Awesome food, staff, and atmosphere! Ariana waited on us and she was beyond excellent! You have to try this place! You will walk out feeling better than when you walked into it. We will be back as often as possible read more

Unidentifiable objects floating in water. I was with 2 others and their food came out about 10 minutes before mine. I had the eggs Benedict (eggs were hard boiled) and potatoes were raw. I would have notified my sever but she never came around to check on us. The restaurant was less than half full. read more

Very clean. Perfect service. Yummy food. Pancakes were especially good. Will definitely go again.

Love this place! The menu items are so fresh and change every season so there is a variety aside from the regular items to try. The million dollar bacon is absolutely amazing and my go to dish is always the breakfast tacos. The Port Orange location has such sweet staff, my favorite two servers are these cute blonde girls names Shelsey and Haily . Highly recommend them as well as this location! read more

One of my favorite breakfast places. Never had a bad meal here and the service is always great.

The food was absolutely amazing. I love French toast but I have always had a hard time finding a restaurant that makes it just the way I like it. The French toast here was by far the best I have ever had. The biscuits and gravy were to die for, and I love that the sauce was made with turkey sausage instead of regular sausage. The juice bar was also awesome, and our waitress recommended the watermelon drink which was so delicious! Our waitress Brooklyn was an absolutely delight! She was super friendly and provided the best service we have received in a long time. We will definitely be revisiting this place when we come back to Daytona! read more

We have enjoyed many delicious meals from other First Watch locations and decided to make Easter special with their delicious food. Unfortunately, our order was ruined by burnt potatoes. It smelled awful and tasted like if you licked the grill cleaning tool. There was so much soot and ash at the bottom it looked like someone used the tray to clean their fireplace. It was disgusting. I didn't want to call with negative feedback on Easter, and this location closed the next day. I'll update my review if this location contacts me, and/or we're able to give them a second chance. read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE! I've never felt the need to write a review until today. Giving a generous two stars because our food was made quickly and tasted great. Our server was downright rude. We never got refills on our teas and we were never brought silverware. I can understand if it was busy, it was not. The only positive interaction we had was with a blonde haired gentleman when paying. My bill says Peggy. I'm more interested in getting that young man a raise, he's the only reason my mother left smiling. read more

Three of us went for breakfast two orders came out warm my order of eggs Benedict was sent back as the eggs were hard boiled and it was cold. The waiter Tom re-ordered them and 20 minutes later they were served the same way. The other two people had finished their breakfast. Asked to seethe manger, who never came to the table. The very young staff at the register asked how everything was and I told them. There excuse was we are under staffed. What a horrible experience. Go some place else! read more

My wife and I love eggs benedict however do not order this item there. The ham was extremely salty and the hollandaise sauce tasted more like lemon curd and I would say that it was almost inedible. I did say something to a staff member, he did nothing. The last two times there have been a big disappointment. There are much better places to eat for breakfast in Port Orange. read more

Food is always outstanding and I love the creativity of the seasonal menus! CLEAN and food is always fresh, and service is on point. ManageMy favorite place to eat whenever I'm in town. Thank you for the eggcellent service, Jack! read more

First Watch in Port Orange has only been open for about a month, and I went in this morning for the first time to try it out. There were maybe 8 to 10 people already seated when I arrived around 8 am. The staff was friendly and polite, and I never felt rushed or ignored. I got seated quickly and ordered the cinnamon chip pancake breakfast off the seasonal menu with a side of potatoes. My food arrived not more than 10 minutes later, and everything was very good. My 2 scrambled eggs looked kind of lonely on the side of the plate next to the huge and delicious cinnamon chip pancake. The pork sausage was very good also, but I wish I got more than 1 link. The huge portion of perfectly seasoned potatoes (home fries) made up for it, and I was not able to finish them all. My first impression of First Watch is that they seem to pull off the little details that separate a great breakfast from just a good breakfast. In this case, those little details start with the edges of the pancakes being crispy (as they should be), the syrup is served warm, and the OJ (tasted like fresh squeezed) is not from concentrate! For my next visit, I'm keen on trying the Millionaire's Bacon, but for $4.99 I won't be having it too often. And that brings me to the only caveat - If you want perks like fresh ingredients, homemade pancake batter and cage-free eggs you have to be willing to pay a premium. My breakfast, with an extra side and glass of OJ came to $16.80. If you want cheap, go to Denny's. If you want quality food and those little details, First Watch should be at the top of your list. read more

A new local favorite!! I know it is a chain but still. Service is always pretty quick despite being busy most of the time. I love the dog friendly patio. I recommend the market hash, the breakfast tacos and the Kale tonic. Yummy!! read more
