Went there for Brunch with the family. Waitress never refilled our drinks at all or checked up on us till she brought the check. The food was mediocre, scrambled eggs were runny, biscuits were dry. Waffle was awesome which is why I'm giving 2 stars instead of one. Probably not going back. Never left a restaurant more dehydrated than when I came in before. read more

We were looking forward to eating at First Watch in Simpsonville based on FB chatter about the place. We were pretty much underwhelmed. First the good though. Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and just the right amount of attentive. Our food came out quickly and hot. The home fries were pretty good and the best part of the meal. Now the not so good - the coffee was a bit bland and watery. The food was cooked properly but not all that tasty. I had the classic eggs benedict and it was not even in the top ten of best I've had yet I paid more for it at First Watch than I have at other places where the flavor was much better. My husband got the turkey sausage and gravy and found it just mediocre. He was pretty sick when he got home, so not sure if it was the food or just coincidence. The menu sounds great but the food itself just doesn't live up. And paying almost $3 for a small glass of OJ that tasted more like grapefruit juice was a minus as well. The place is pretty small inside and the din makes conversing without shouting almost impossible. Even our waitress had a hard time hearing us order and we were talking pretty loud. So we won't be back and that's too bad. We were really hoping for another great breakfast place. Oh well, the search goes on... read more

Food is great! Don't get me wrong, I love all the creative spin on traditional breakfast items but the service is really holding the restaurant back. No hostess, only one cashier, servers just standing around, and management not doing anything about it. After waiting 30 minutes in store for a to go order the manager on hand and the cashier did not apologize for the inconvenience. I understand COVID-19 is putting pressure on all businesses, but there is still no excuse for being poorly managed and inconsiderate service. Think twice next time you are thinking about trying First Watch read more

Just had breakfast. Our server seemed to be too busy to even take our order. My order came out way before my husband's. While my food was good, my husband said he could get something better at Waffle House. Took forever to get our check. It was a very expensive breakfast. Think we will stick with Eggs Up from now on read more

This place is turning into our Go To breakfast joint! Everything has been fresh and scratch made. Service is excellent and the weekend waits are worth it. Highly recommended!!! read more

Great breakfast spot with friendly staff and a wonderful ambiance. They offer a nice selection with some unique dishes. My only feedback is that they could lighten up on the seasoning on the breakfast potatoes abit. We will be back. read more

We had a delicious breakfast here this morning and what made it even better was our server Ashley. She was fun and attentive the entire time. Looking forward to returning to this delicious restaurant. read more

I am super excited that we finally have a First Watch in Greenville. I've always felt a little let down by most local options--I don't get too excited about bacon eggs hash browns and grits. I can do that at home. This is how a breakfast place should be. The ricotta pancakes with lemon curd are AMAZING. The morning meditation is almost to beautiful to drink. I've loved everything I've gotten here: omelettes, avocado toast, carrot cake pancakes, chia pudding, and the breakfast burrito. And of course the million dollar bacon is killer. To top it off they bring you the pot of coffee so you can fill up as you wish. This is making me hungry so I think I'll go back tomorrow. read more

I absolutely loved eating here. Megan was the best server I've ever had. Very patient and kind and knew the menu by heart. Such a sweet person. I can't wait to go back. If you come here I would definitely ask for her! 5 stars read more

Best new lunch spot in the Simpsonville area. Food delicious, excellent service, nice ambiance. Will definitely be back. Tip: Download their app. Sign in and skip the line. When you sign in, you reserve your spot. We were seated as soon as we arrived. Lots of people were left waiting. Love the app. read more

It's deceptively NOT vegetarian friendly, so be careful if you're vegetarian. Menu hides meat in middle for salads, instead of at the end. Food and service is good, atmosphere is loud, no sound deadening. read more

Very understaffed. Manger at front seemed to be in no mans land. Food took 30min to come out. 1 pancake cost $6, and it's not worth $3. Hash bowl was great. Kids pancake was ok. Service was not good. Coffee is brown water! Total time in restaurant was 1.5hrs, spent 20 min eating. read more

Fresh ingredients and exceptional service. Thanks for a great experience with every visit!

Food is great Five Star. Service leaves a lot to desire. So figure five star for food, and still one star. So ... waited 20 minutes for our ticket. Saw our waitress two times, once to order and one follow up. read more

I have been coming here for a while and it is great but today they are doing very bad and the waitress with dreads is counting her tips other then serving customers i have been in here for 40 min and I haven't got served yet read more

I love the energy at this restaurant. Despite covid and the restrictions it has placed the staff are upbeat and courteous. Safety precautions are in place and I have never see. Anyone wear their mask inappropriately or side step precautions. This is one reason I keep coming back. The other reason is my server. I always request Annamarie. She made my first visit memorable and made me feel like a friend from the moment she introduced herself. She never sees me as just another table or just more money in her pocket. She is as genuine as anyone can get. This is what makes her real! My husband is not keen on the menu. He is a manly man old foods type of person. He always orders the same meal. He continues to come back due to the atmosphere. He is hard to please at times and I'm so thankful first watch is on his approval list of places to go. read more

So yesterday my family and I decided to try this place. Let me tell you the food was bomb. But I really want to brag on our server. Ashley. I really hope you see this. This being our first time she was more than patient with us. Kept our coffee full and fresh. She did something I don't see very often while dining out anymore and was the most patient with my 5 year old who is very indecisive. Our food came quick and was hot and fresh. Thankyou Ashley for making us feel like we were so much more than just another table. I highly recommend anyone who tries this place to ask for Ashley she was the sweetest even under a mask she was smiling and laughing. read more

Delicious new place! Everything coming from the kitchen had a beautiful presentation, I'm sure was tasty also. We had the Million Dollar Bacon (would be worth every penny), Chickichagas (wonderful flavor, not too spicy), and the Traditional breakfast (tons of food!). We came when it was super busy, but they utilize Yelp Waitlist/texting so we were able to get some shopping done nearby and make it back for our table - so convenient! read more

Fantastic! So happy Simpsonville has a new place to eat! Fresh food, innovatIve menu options, and friendly staff.

Delicious food, fabulous service, fun and upbeat environment! Great addition to Simpsonville.

Well, unfortunately I have to leave a not so good review. Today being Mothers Day I wanted to enjoy a breakfast out with my family. Restaurants are finally open for patio seating and we were really looking forward to being out. We got to the restaurant and were immediately seated. Our waitress came over about 5 minutes later and got our order and drinks. Goes downhill from here. We watched as other tables that were seated after us were getting their orders. We saw that we had been sitting for 45 minutes without food. The waitress stopped by once to refill our drinks and we never saw her after that. There was also another table that had been seated probably 10 minutes before us and they hadn't received their food either. My husband had to go inside to ask them to check in our food. Other tables continues to receive their orders. They kept blaming it on two cooks never showed up. We left after over and hour sitting there, without food. If the cooks were to blame, then what is the excuse for serving tables that were seated after us? We left very unhappy. read more

I'd give the food 4 stars but the service 2 stars so balancing out with a 3 star. Place was very loud and fairly full..think the concrete floors make the sound travel more. Hubby and I both had the egg sandwich and it was great but so messy with the egg and avocado mash. We kept waiting for our waitress to return to bring us extra napkins. I eventually got up and found some at the to go table. Our waitress took our orders, brought drinks, brought food and then check. Never checked to see how food was or if we needed anything (yes we did..ketchup and salt) and never refilled my water which was almost also finished when food arrived or hubby's $3.25 Diet Coke. At check out I said our waitress needed some more training...and I am NOT a complainer. Sorry the cashier said. So I told her exactly what needed to be address. Sorry she said. Not even paying attention. So...great food (and was not a cheap breakfast) but not sure I will go back because of the service and lack of genuine care by staff. read more
