Subject: Feedback on New Military Discount Policy Hello First Watch Team, I am disappointed to hear that this specific First Watch had started denying military discount to our veterans. As someone who is currently serving, I believe the decision to limit military discounts only to currently serving members, while excluding veterans and past service members, is short-sighted and potentially harmful to First Watch's reputation. Veterans have sacrificed years of their lives in service to our country, and their contributions *do not end* the day they take off the uniform. Many businesses recognize this by extending the same courtesy to veterans as they do to active-duty members, acknowledging the lifelong impact of military service. Restricting the discount may inadvertently send the message that veterans are less valued, despite the fact that their service and sacrifices helped secure the freedoms and opportunities we enjoy today. By including both active-duty and past military members, First Watch would demonstrate a deeper commitment to honoring all who have served, building goodwill within the military community and fostering customer loyalty. Ultimately, extending the discount to veterans is not just a financial gesture it is a powerful statement of respect, gratitude, and inclusivity. read more

Favorite Place for breakfast! Not only is this place convenient to our home...they serve great food- my god, I haven't had this level of comfort in some time. It reminds me of that ideal spot to go every Sunday regardless of what the schedule is. My wife and I love it, and the kids have a blast as well. Sorry, wanted to reiterate the fact that the customer service here is amazing. Usually I'd pick a Bob Evans or something similar=which isn't bad, but it sometimes staffed by people w/'questionable' character in my opinion. Look, no big deal...but the last thing I want my kids to look at Saturday and Sunday morning at breakfast is a rough looking middle aged woman with a tattoo on her neck wreaking of cigarette smoke. I'm not trying to pass judgement here...I come from a trailer park and have a bunch of tattoos under long sleeves .... I just think early morning, is a crucial time to be the most 'polished' no matter who you are if you're going to be out in customer service. So, long story short...loved FIRST WATCH restaurant off of Mid Rivers! Check 'em out. read more

After sitting down, I noticed paper menus sitting on the counter, so I walked over to grab them. The lady at the register, who later claimed to be the manager after I asked to speak to one, said, "I will bring them to you." Also fine. I simply went back to our booth and waited. When she came over, instead of saying hello or introducing herself, her first words were, "You need to practice a little patience." That immediately put my service radar on high alert. There was no attitude from us, no complaints, we had simply walked over to grab menus. The comment was unnecessary and unprofessional. She then asked what we wanted to drink. I calmly asked, "Can you wipe the table down?" Her response: "It is." I replied, "It is not there are spots on the table." She then pointed at the table and said, "These are imperfections." I know the difference between imperfections in a surface and spots that can be wiped clean. The table clearly had residue on it. Rather than simply wiping it down, she chose to argue. At that point, I told my husband, "Let's just leave." The entire interaction felt dismissive, defensive, and rude. When I asked to speak to a manager, she claimed she was the manager. I let her know directly that her tone and behavior were inappropriate, and we left. Customer service is about making guests feel welcome. This felt the exact opposite.
