    We were in the area and I was invited to try this place for a cozy breakfast. I now have a favorite breakfast spot in this part of town. We were surrounded by friendly and cheerful people at the community table. The coffee and water were ever flowing, as the service was very attentive to everyone. I ordered the ham and gruyere omelet, with fruit and salad. The gruyere and ham were a perfect cheese lover's omelet. The place was very clean and there was plenty of parking. We would have loved to sit in theirpatio, but it was too cold and windy that day. We hope to come back!

    1/2 Ham and Guerye Melt and Broccoli Cheese Soup Combo

    Visited for the first time ever yesterday and given that it was brunch time on a Sunday it was super packed. We got checked in and waited about 45 mins to be seated. The menu is impressive, everything sounded delicious and we received good service. After much deliberation, I settled on a 1/2 Ham and Gueyere Melt and Cup of Broccoli Soup combo ($12). It was pretty good. I just wish the sandwich was a little more toasted and the soup was a little more hot (it was lukewarm). My friend ordered the Million Dollar Bacon which I was able to try and that was very tasty. I'll definitely be back soon to try more items from their menu just probably not at brunch time on a Sunday.

    We came in around 945. Short wait for 2 however we opted to sit outside due to the beautiful weather . Out side is first come first serve full service seating but only 4 tables. I had the market veg hash- 5/5 comes with potato , spinach, mushroom, onion and peppers topped with 2 eggs and toast. Eggs are a little more runny then I would like for a "over medium" so I typically order over hard. We also ordered the Trifecta- sub bacon for potatoes. 5/5 however it only comes with one slice of French toast . Pomegranate sunrise-delish! 5/5 Cathy our server was excellent. Was so hungry didn't capture food pics, Sorry friends. lol

    Friendly greeting from manager as we entered. Despite lunch hour there was adequate seating. Decided on specially drink - Morning Meditation - which was very nice tasty and not overly sweet. The Pumpkins pancake breakfast was very good. The Million Dollar Bacon served to us had 2 pieces which were black charred so we refused it and requested another. Next plate was better but several pieces had burnt ends. Surprised no check that burnt food is being served but I suppose if nobody refuses it then it will continue to be served. The Floridian French Toast was disappointing. Fruit was fresh but French toast was nothing special. Challah bread which was pre- coated or so it seemed. Nothing eggy which is part of French Toast taste for me. Wouldn't order again. Better items on the menu. Should mention I had a coupon which prompted the visit. Still a $50+ tab even with a free entree.

    New location for me, but still the same great food. First Watch quality and deliciousness seems to be the same across locations, which I HIGHLY appreciate. French Toast: Great. You will not be disappointed. Perfect texture and great taste. Bacon Cheddar Cornbread: VERY tasty! If you like cornbread, I definitely recommend. Million Dollar Bacon: Bacon was cooked perfectly. If you like sweet meat (with a bit of kick) then you should try! Service: Amazing (as always). Our food came out at a decent time, and all at once!

    We typically order through a food delivery service but decided to actually go inside and sit. We went early enough on a Sunday morning to not have a wait. Danielle was super nice and checked on us regularly. The restaurant was not crowded at all and we didn't feel rushed. The food was super fresh and hot off the grill. We didn't have any complaints. Service was great, food was great, atmosphere was great! We have been ordering from here for years and don't plan to stop!

    Biscuits & Turkey Sausage Gravy with Eggs
    Marsha A.

    My birthday brunch bash at First Watch in Round Rock was a hit! The atmosphere was *on point*--the place was packed, but servers kept their cool and did their best to keep things moving, despite no special birthday shoutout for yours truly (I mean, come on, I'm the main character here). For food, I ordered the BISCUITS & TURKEY SAUSAGE GRAVY WITH EGGS. Y'all, that turkey sausage gravy? Absolute fire. The biscuit was soft and flaky, giving 'Southern grandma's kitchen' vibes in all the right ways. Eggs were eggs (over easy FTW) and perfectly cooked. I swapped potatoes for grits, which, unfortunately, were a little too thick for my taste. I'm a 'creamy grits' kind of gal, so maybe that's on me. As for the rest of the table's potatoes--meh. Not bad, but I noticed a few leftovers. My grandkids are brunch experts and went straight for the FRENCH TOAST. It's custard-dipped, thick-cut brioche served with warm berries, and they didn't leave a crumb. Someone also ordered the SMOKED SALMON BENEDICT--poached eggs with smoked salmon and lemon-dressed greens, and judging by their empty plate, it was a winner. All in all, this place has solid food, fun vibes, and I'll definitely be back to see if I can get that birthday shoutout next year!

    We love the quality of the food here and the service is always great. The wait is normally at least 30 + min so try to join the waitlist online if you can prior to arrival as there are always people waiting out the door.

    Honey Chipotle Chicken Hash! Delicious. Service? Got us in and out quickly. Such a pleasant dining experience. Must keep this place in the frontal lobes for sure!

    Broken table at the patio

    We came out for brunch while we are in town visiting. Not pleased at ALL . Waited a solid 45 mins to even get our orders taken . We seen our waiter maybe 3 times the entire time . I understand it's a busy Sunday and you've gotten busy . There was no reason everyone around us that got seated 30 minutes after us ate and checked out before we even ordered . The food was not even remotely warm you could tell it had been sitting. Our table was broken, we had to keep our feet on the table legs or our drinks were gonna trample over! Our server did take a plate off our ticket but it still doesn't accommodate waiting 2 hours from arriving to leaving, won't be back to this location .

    Do they have gluten free pancakes?

    Yes they do.

    Is this just The Egg and I rebranded or is this a whole new company, in no way affiliated with them? I can't find the answer anywhere! I'm just curious as to whether it's just a more modern version or if it's a completely new thing. Thanks!

    Pretty sure it's a new company. Food is sooo much better than EEG and I. Love First Watch!

    I am so torn on this place. My friends and I were looking for a cute spot for a moms night out…read more(just 3 of us). We decided to make a reservation at Odds Bar and give it a try. Arrived right on time and the parking lot was PACKED, though the restaurant appeared nearly empty except for a loud networking event going on in a devoted side room open to the main area. No one at the desk to greet us, just a sign to seat ourselves, so we did. Guess reservations don't really matter? It was quite a while before anyone approached us, but when a server finally came he was very nice and helpful. We ordered drinks and entrees. It took an ABSURD amount of time before the drinks came out...maybe because of the event? Not sure. The bar and restaurant seemed nearly empty otherwise and the bartender didn't look busy or rushed at all. Luckily we had intended to make a night of it, so we were able to wait. It was hard to hear each other talk, though, due to the networking event. When the drinks finally came, mine was AMAZING. Like, one of the best drinks I've had in Austin, and maybe one of the best of my life? Weeks later I'm still thinking about it. I got the Going Bananas and it was simple perfection. The food also took a while to come out, but at least we had drinks to tide us over. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich and was disappointed. The toppings were spare and didn't offer much to elevate the dish, and the chicken itself, while tasty, was very dry in parts, to the extent where I was dipping it in ketchup to get it to go down easy. The bun and fries were good. Our server seemed to have evaporated into thin air after delivering food, so we had no water refills and had to vye for attention to pay the check. Eventually the bartender came and helped us pay, and seemed terse and annoyed when we asked to split our check. (Three middle-aged women...seems more likely a split than combined?) All in all, we were there about 3 hours total, mostly because service took so long. Such a bizarre experience. I would NOT come here if you are on any kind of timeline. The only way I'll come back is to sit at the bar and have drinks only.

Our server was Chase, who was very knowledgeable about the menu and took ownership of the whole experience. You can tell he enjoys being there. I got the off-menu All Day English Breakfast, which - shut the front door - was the best I've had in the Austin area. No puddings, and regular bacon instead of rashers, but otherwise super traditional and fantastic. The bangers stood out - YUM. We also got some candied bacon for fun which made the whole meal even more excessive, haha. It was superb, and a generous portion that the two of us easily shared. I'm hooked. Reasonable prices, great food, beautiful interior, fantastic service, easy parking. What a fun surprise to start 2026.

At first, my intentions were to share with husband but he wanted his own and enjoyed every bite. It was very crisp and cooked to perfection however the oil could have drained a little longer but still good. We also started with the goat cheese fondue that was delicious but not much of a portion for sharing but with a generous amount of sourdough that accompanied the dip. I had a birthday slice of sticky toffee pudding for my birthday that I've had a few times in the past. In my opinion, it has not been as good as the very first time. Not as moist. Overall, we'd probably return to try other menu options.

My girls are begging for anchor wings nightly, the 9yo loves their retrial and the 7yo loves the jerk, I personally love the honey siracha and babe alert ranch.

The waiter said it's a misprint and supposed to say 10 minimum. That was frustrating and sad because we would go every Tuesday if we could order less, 10 is way too much for all 3 of us and all 3 like different flavors so sharing won't work either.
