My friend and I went to First Watch for brunch this morning and were shocked by how short the wait was! We got our table shortly after putting our name on the list and were greeted with our server. We sat inside and while it was busy, it was perfect to catch up while eating. Our server was great and ever gave me my own pot of coffee for refills during the meal. We shared the million dollar bacon which was perfectly chewy. I also ordered the steak hash on their seasonal menu and loved everything about it. It was so filling and had so much flavor. It was absolutely delicious. 10/10 would recommend AND order again. read more

Another great breakfast at First Watch. We always stop by when we are in the Phoenix area and it has never disappointed. Today I tried the biscuits with turkey sausage gravy and it was the best I have ever had. I absolutely love that they have non-pork gravy - taste just as good but so much better for you and I don't like eating pork. Husband had an omelet and it was stellar, as well. Brittany was excellent, we didn't want for a thing. read more

Are you looking to eat a delicious breakfast AND exceptional customer service? Look no further than First Watch. The restaurant is conveniently located off of Scottsdale Rd and offers plenty of parking. There is plenty of seating inside and also a few seats on the patio. The staff are super friendly and make you feel welcome right away. They do tend to get busy so plan accordingly. On this visit we had the Works omelette and double bacon Parmesan hash. Plain and simple, delicious and fresh. Fresh coffee keeps things going. They also offer a variety of pancakes and waffles. Overall a very good spot to enjoy delicious, hot breakfast and freshly brewed coffee. read more

The new Fall menu made our food choices easy. I thought the pickled jalapeños on the maple back sandwich paired well with the sweetness of the maple croissant and brown sugar bacon. The pumpkin pancake was good, I would've liked a little more pumpkin spice plus a second cake. The pomegranate sunrise was a great take for a tequila brunch cocktail. Our server was prompt and very friendly. This place is family friendly for families with kids. With the wood flooring it does make the place a little noisy when it gets busy. read more

Not really much to say other than the food is great quality and the service staff is nice. The seating could be more comfortable but that certainly does not knock it from a 5. The ambient atmosphere is decent. read more

The Raspberry Ricotta French Toast was delicious, not too sweet and very flavorful. My wife loved her Avocado Chopped Salad, grateful that the dressing complimented the ingredients without being overpowering. We both tried the Blue Booster juice and loved the crisp, fresh taste of the Fuji apple juice. The ambiance was delightful as always. Our server, Dakota, provided exceptional service. read more

Never have a had such a terrible experience at First Watch. We were sat at a table with food in the bench, dirty table, and dirty coffee cups. Gross! So we moved. Next table has crumbs and wet glass marks and DIRTY coffee cups. Think twice before you go here. I can't imagine what the kitchen looks like. read more

Walking into this restaurant for the first time in THREE YEARS, we were greeted by our then server Brittany. She recognized us and we remembered her too. We had some great laughs in the past visit and were very glad to see her again! She even remembered where we sat! Special Our server this day was Logan. He was working hard and still had time to chat and make us feel at home. Food is great Lemon Ricotta Pancakes Turkey sausage and gravy are recommended. We will be back. read more

Came here with a friend at 11am on a Friday. Despite the hour and day, it wasn't full or on a waitlist and we were seated immediately. I enjoyed the carafe of water we were provided on the table and was offered a cup of coffee. Unfortunately, I don't think their coffee is a house blend. It tasted like keurigs coffee, which isn't to say it's a fact but it tastes low quality. I ordered a seasonal drink called the Tangerine Dream (shown) and the Tri-Fecta with poached eggs, chicken patties and a pancake. I'm a huge fan of pancakes and I'd like to say I have a knack for identifying them. This one was just good. The patties were good too. Overall, everything was just good. Nothing to rave about and I don't particularly want to attend again when places like Snooze exist. We did also have quite a wait for a dessert my friend ordered despite it not being full, though I don't know if they had a lot of online orders or something else preventing them. read more

First Watch - Eggs Benedict - Cafes Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

I was between appointments and decided to treat myself to breakfast. Wasn't sure where I wanted to go and then I remembered there was a First Watch at Promenade. Perfect! I was a little nervous that I'd feel awkward being a party of 1, but the hostess didn't even bat an eye. She put my name on the list and said maybe a 10 min wait, but it wasn't even 5. I was given a regular menu and a holiday menu. Not much appealed on the Holiday menu today. I was in the mood for the basics, so ordered the traditional breakfast. There was a drink on the holiday menu though that piqued my interest - Red Medicine. Let me tell you - it may be the best juice beverage I've ever tasted. They need to bottle that! Pomegranate, cranberry, black tea, honey and cinnamon. Whoever came up with that deliciousness deserves an award. My breakfast was good, but nothing overly special. Over easy eggs done exactly right. 4 slices of bacon, unlike the 2 other places tend to give you. I requested extra crispy and this was just right, but not a big fan of whatever brand they use. Toast was good and I appreciate the little cup of jam. The potatoes weren't my favorite. I'm not a big breakfast potato fan and prefer shredded hash browns. Overall a good breakfast and a nice place to dine solo. read more

We had an amazing brunch here on Sunday morning. The line was long, but they were able to see us within 10 minutes because we had a smaller party than most. We enjoyed some fabulous dishes, including the special chili for the fall menu. We loved everything we had and our server was great. We will definitely be back, either in Scottsdale or across the US. read more

The service was great and I didn't have a bad time it just didn't stand out much to me. The coffee was very mid, and overall I got a dennys vibe but slightly better. I ordered the biscuits and gravy and felt it was just average. A bit pricey imo for the quality. read more

Came in for brunch today with some coworkers and the food was delicious. we were in and out in under an hour and staff were friendly! There is plenty of seating inside.

Looking for something we didn't have at home and found First Watch. So thankful we did! Our waitress Veronica was so helpful with all our questions. We wanted to order everything off the menu. We started with the Blueberry Lemon cornbread and it was phenomenal. Tasted straight out of Grandmas kitchen. We all ordered something different so we could share and it was all incredible. I got the breakfast tacos and they were to die for! Adorable atmosphere with all the country themed decor! Next time we are in Scottsdale we are definitely coming here to eat! read more

Anyone who knows me knows that I love First Watch! I've eaten at several in several states lol! This was definitely one of the best locations I've visited. We arrived about an hour before closing and had really good service. My Purple Haze (add a wellness shot) was delicious as always. Our Holey Donuts didn't taste right but our server was quick to get them replaced. I usually eat breakfast food but I tried a lunch item this time. We both had the Monterey Club Sandwich and it was perfect! I had the Dressed Greens as a side and the other guest had the Seasoned Potatoes. The Dressed Greens were way better than the potatoes! Yum yum! I highly recommend this location! read more

For a quick 24 hr stop in Scottdale, we needed a quick and good breakfast spot. First Watch popped up close to our hotel. We were welcomed as soon as we walked in and sat immediately. Our server came by to grab our drinks. We ordered the seasonal donut holes to start with coffee (they give you a hot craft of coffee for your table with flavored & regular creamers). Coffee was nice a bold. Loved it. The donut holes we warm and cake like texture. They were served with chocolate & berry dipping sauces. The chocolate wasn't overly sweat so it was a great pairing. I ordered the tri-athlete omelet. It was very fresh and light but also filling. The fruit was fresh and not mushy. The multigrain toast with homemade strawberry jam was great with the Savory omelet. read more

Some of the best breakfast in town! We came during spring training and it was full of people but the wait was very limited. The menu has an amazing selection of items. The creamy savory potatoes are some of the best I have ever eaten. The breakfast donuts were so delicious! We also did the mint chip coffee and the fresh squeezed juice for drinks which were perfect. The menu items have a large variety to satisfy everyone. Highly recommend adding this to your list of places to visit. read more

I have eaten at this First Watch location at least 20 times but no more. The food comes out of the kitchen cold, and I want a hot breakfast. The last 5-6 times I ate there my food was cold. Nice people, but they will no longer get my business read more

Since I've developed a taste for the A.M. Superfoods Bowl, I guess First Watch deserves a 5. We know what we are getting into at First Watch: a wait for a table but consistently good food. No matter which location we go to, the staff is knowledgeable about their menu items, and we can get our meals made dairy-free. My husband's go-to is the avocado toast. It's more upscale than a diner but not pretentious, which makes for a fast but not rushed, semi-relaxing breakfast (if you're not seated by a family with hungry small children) - but that could happen anywhere. We like it for keeping our favorites prepared consistently well. read more

Great food and great service! I tried the combo, with half a chicken avocado salad and the other half turkey club. When I asked for no bacon on my sandwich, our server immediately offered to replace it with a different protein, which I've never had happen anywhere! What a nice gesture! I replaced my bacon with chipotle chicken, and the sandwich was delicious, as was my salad. The prices are very reasonable, too. There are a few First Watch locations near me in Illinois, but I had never been to one until this trip to Arizona. I'll definitely be back to try a location close to home! read more

Visit Scottsdale several times a year. And every visit I try to eat at first watch for breakfast. I don't eat the free hotel breakfast opting instead for the delicious food at First Watch. We visited the original one when it was in downtown Scottsdale. It's always neat and clean and orderly. The noise level is acceptable. The service is always first rate. it's not a huge menu, but there's something for every type of diet. I wish they'd come to California., but their corporate is probably too smart for that read more

The food was absolutely amazing and the service was fantastic. It's a great place to eat with family.

This is a super solid breakfast spot. We actually went twice during our quick trip to Scottsdale. Service was great, food was delicious and ambiance was great. I suggest sitting outside if the weather permits. read more

My father and I used to frequent First Watch for years. He was a simple man who liked "his" spots. We would eat here on the patio with my dog. He passed a while back and my mother and I wanted to go to one of his favorites only to find out quite rudely that they are no longer dog friendly. Now I have a small dog, if it were large I could understand to a degree but after the hostess sat us on the very empty patio, the manager came out in an angry huff and was very rude telling us to leave. read more

So yes, I returned for breakfast two days in a row and I'm glad about it. This time I ordered the chicken sausage and lemon ricotta pancakes. These were both LOVE AT FIRST BITE. The staff also brought me another MORNING MEDICATION juice and samples of the Kale Tonic and seasonal pomegranate pear or whatever it's called. The Kale Tonic is something I would drink everyday if I could. Now that I'm back in Chicago, there are multiple locations outside the city. I need one in the city limits, preferably Hyde Park. Please and thank you!! This will likely become my go to for weekend brunch because there isn't one close to home. Yet?! read more

I've been seeing ads for this place for a while now. We needed breakfast a few hours before soccer games. It was easy to get a table on a Thursday morning. Waitress was nice and helpful. Two of us tried something different and loved it. Avocado toast was sizeable and tasty. My sandwich was flavorful and a good size. We decided to get the donut holes to go. They threw in a few more. Wow. Some of the best donut holes I've ever had. Insides were spongy and not dry. Sauces were nice. read more

Went into this location and sat at the front for about 5 minutes until we were finally greeted. Although it wasn't busy, and the staff were standing in the back talking. We were finally seated and needed a moment to look over drinks. The server did not come back for about 5 minutes even though we had our menus to the side and were looking to call him over. Again he was just in the back talking. Once he comes over we order, and he didn't even write the order down. I asked for vanilla creamer for the coffee I ordered and never received it. I couldn't even drink the coffee I paid 5$ for. We got our food separately even though we ordered it all at the same time. Which wouldn't have been a problem but it wasn't the right food. All in all even when we got the food it was cold. It didn't taste fresh at all. Service was not good even when it was extremely slow. Was very disappointed. Go to the promenade location instead!! read more
