Wonderful place for breakfast. The banana crunch pancake is so good. I also enjoy all of the eggs Benedict selections. Another favorite is the Avocado Toast. Enjoy! read more

Good food , will split orders, substitute ingredients, accommodating, They offer online coupons, friendly staff. We've been here many times and will be back. Good for large groups, child friendly. read more

Let me start with this. We waited 25 mins to be seated and 30 minutes for avocado toast and some scrambled eggs. My sisters eggs were runny and mine were cold I also only got one slice of bread and a glob Of avocado, I thought toast had two slices....it was supposed to come with two eggs when my sister received hers it was just one egg barely and runny when she got them back they actually gave her her two eggs you should've seen the difference. If you're black just go to a black owned place you'll be treated with respect. read more

Been a regular customer for years, but today my first disappointment. You can get soup by the bowl individually, or with the soup and sandwich you get a cup. If you order sandwich and salad combo, you can't purchase just a cup of soup, you have to buy a bowl???????? read more

Great service! Really, truly the service was outstanding. It was our first breakfast of the new year and they really left me with a smile on my face. The food was excellent and the portion sizes were huge. I had read an earlier review that complained about the meal size but even the kid's plates were huge so I'm not sure where that was coming from. Just a pleasant place with lots of healthy (and non healthy if that's your preference) breakfast options. And did I mention the service was some of the best around? read more

Great customer service and great food! It's close to home and there's other locations around which is a plus as I'm running errands. The breakfast here is filling! Kid friendly, too! read more

Gotta say I my second visit today was not as great as the first. We didn't mind waiting over 30 minutes for our food but someone in the kitchen forgot half of my eggs for the Florentine eggs Benedict;( I specially told our server to make sure my eggs were poached soft and runny, they were well done and very little egg with one egg completely missing the entire yolk. Maybe someone needs to learn how to poach eggs? The rest was ok. I'm not sure if we should try again . read more

First watch really hits the spot with their delicious breakfast dishes and my favorite the honey djyon salad. I love going there. Sundays afternoons everyone and their brother wants to eat there so you have to wait a bit but I am always happy that I went. read more

Food is always great came in on the fourth with my gf ordered a trifecta and wanted to order an extra pancake. My gf ordered the same the but with a waffle. Get the bill and see I was charged $5 for a pancake for one pancake spoke to the server she said sorry which I know it's not her fault but $5 for a pancake that I was just adding onto my order seems a little much they said sorry the new menu that's the only way we can ring up one pancake.... read more

Funky name, but pleasant surprise. Dropped in for a late lunch, and wasn't really sure what to expect by the name. However, it was clear this is natural food, yet a variety of options for those of us who aren't really natural, but just want good food. First off, the water is good. That may seem silly, but there are so many restaurants (and hotels) in Oldsmar that have crappy water, you either need bottled water, or try to kill it with lemon. They have a great filter, and as such, great water. Thanks. The food came out in 10 minutes, so plenty fast, and was really quite filling. One of us did the soup and 1/2 sandwich and the other salad and 1/2 sandwich. Our server was Houdi, who came back just enough to make sure everything was right, and we didn't need anything. Will definitely go back. read more

Best breakfast in Tampa Bay. The staff and management go above and beyond to make every meal a great experience! They never disappoint. This is one of their seasonal specials, The Mexican Street Corn Hash. It was amazing! Their regular menu items are too. You must try! You'll be back for more. read more

First Watch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Atmosphere not the greatest, but the food, and coffee, have been awesome. I love that they offer healthy options. Reasonable, good, healthy breakfast spot in a good location. read more

I LOVE THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF THIS PLACE!! As a mother I prefer to feed my daughter healthy nutritious meals more often then not. Don't get me wrong- we have our days where we treat ourselves BUT on a regular basis it's healthy food for her, and that's what drove me to this place! They are one of the few places (I know of) in my area that offer such a healthy menu. Although all the staff members (I came in contact with in our visit) were all very friendly, they are not all very attentive. Our waitress completely forgot to bring me my drink and never came over to ask if we needed anything else/ if everything was ok or I would have reminded her about it. Other than that incident; I do think it's a great place to go for breakfast. And I would give it another shot! read more

Great place for breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Lots of healthy and vegetarian options. Good coffee and juices.

This was the second time in a row we came to this First Watch and it was poor. Why? It's not cheap but if the food is hot and served hot it would be okay. Toast was cold and under toasted. The potatoes were luke warm as were the eggs. Service was spotty and no manager present or walking around asking how things were. This is my last time at this location. Over $30 for two for breakfast- it has to be good or it's not worth it. Stay away from this First watch! read more

We are visiting Tampa and this restaurant came highly recommended for brunch/lunch by one of our friends. The place was packed when we got there, but we only had to wait 10 or so minutes. The two working the greeting station at the front were very personable and were getting people checked in and cashed out very efficiently from what I could tell. Once we got to the table we were greeted promptly by our server (I can't remember his name, but it was a young man with brown hair that was very nice, attentive, and knowledgeable about menu items ). Our friend that brought us ordered The Trifecta that he says he orders everytime he goes there and he suggested I try the Kale Tonic for a fresh fruit drink- it was delicious! I'm not a "kale" type, but the apples in it really sweetened it up. I ordered the Southwest style salad and asked to sub goat cheese in lieu of the feta- they were able to accommodate my request and I was very happy with my meal. Overall we had a great visit and everyone left with full bellies. Definitely check this place out for breakfast/brunch! read more

When there's a long wait you know it's good! Came from out of town per yelp recommendation and was very pleased. Great flavorful food, awesome juice! read more

Went on a Saturday and it was packed, thankfully we used the add-to-waitlist option. So we got there, checked in and waited for about half an hour. They gave us free coffee for the wait. But I guess it's expected to wait going here. The meal was good, I had vegetable chicken omelet with pecan pancakes and a green juice blend w/ kale, apple, spinach, banana etc. Would definitely go back again l read more

Excellent food. Excellent service. Love the fresh juices and the healthy choices!!!! Try it u will love it too.

One of our go to breakfast joint. Good variety. You can be healthy or indulgent. Make sure to use the call ahead function. It's always busy.

Great fresh food. Healthy options, fresh avocados, but still plenty of pancakes & bacon options for when you are hung over. Usually only minimal wait time if any. Extremely fast service. GREAT PLACE FOR KIDS. it's ok if they are a little noisy & the servers get kid plates out fast! read more

Nice little place for breakfast on any day. Service was excellent and food was prepared fast. Will make this a regular stop for sure.

just ate lunch @First Watch, I'm glad I found it on yelp. the service and food were very good. it was pretty busy but we were greeted, seated and fed fairly quickly. :) I enjoyed the power wrap that I ordered which came with fresh fruit and fresh homemade salsa. my friend whom accompanied me, ordered from the 2foryou menu and enjoyed his half Reuben sandwich with salad. my overall experience: fast, friendly and fresh. if I wasn't just passing through Tampa I would be a regular. read more

Well I guess we'll start with the fact that it took 49 minutes to get our food from the time we ordered. I was actually hoping that the server forgot to enter our order rather than it actually took that long to make. But no,it actually just took that long. I had the chickichangas. They tasted great, although a little heavy on the avocado. My wife ordered the eggs Benedict. Her yolks were over cooked, and the hollandaise was so salty, she said she'd be better off with a salt lick. Overall, the wait was not worth the quality. read more

My first time visiting this establishment was just ok. It wasn't grand or anything. Just your typical breakfast. Something I could have made at home myself, and probably cheaper. It just didn't have a "wow" factor for me to come back here. read more

A little bit of a wait, but no biggie. That's the deal at most brunch places. Delicious and healthy, which can be a hard combo to come across. Very family friendly as well. read more

Over rated !!! The food is average and flavorless. The decor Is basic. Unimpressed.

My favorite breakfast place in Tampa!! The wait was short, the food was fresh, and healthy!! I will be going back to this place. I have never heard of this place before, apparently this is a chain restaurant with around 300 locations throughout the U.S. read more

I was not impressed with this place in the least bit. There was a long 45 minute wait. The service was horrible! It took forever to place an order and even longer for it to arrive. The food was bland at best. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else. read more

Caption above says it all! Woohoo! As good as it gets! Go there, eat, be happy!

I would highly recommend the day glow juice it's delicious and I also really love the granola bowl. Great place to have breakfast!

This is my go-to place when I'm craving delicious, healthy food. I can always count on good food, great service, and leaving happy. After the multiple times I have been here I have only had one bad experience which the manager noticed I was leaving upset and asked if everything was ok. After explaining the issues they took care of my meal and fixed all my problems. Consistency is key and they definitely have it. read more

Great traditional breakfast that's fresh, delicious and not expensive. Low key place where you can sit back, relax and enjoy a healthy breakfast. read more

In town from west palm beach where we have a first watch too. Same quality same service same taste no matter what location you go to. Love this restaurant. You can't go wrong with first watch. Always meets my expectations. read more

If you want a really "yummy" breakfast if you enjoy Benedict eggs this is your place ...

Great breakfast! They always deliver quality and quick meals. I go here often and have tried multiple items on their menu and really love all of them, although breakfast tends to be my favorite! read more

Service and food were outstanding! Had to wait a few but we used Yelp to put or name in and were seated within 5 minutes of getting there. Foos was fresh, both dishes were great! read more

I went to the location on Henderson because I was getting my oil change across the street at Tire Kingdom. I ordered the yogurt bowl which was terrible. The "fresh fruit" was out of season which was sour and the yogurt had no taste. Could not finish the dish. However, my son ordered the "maple bacon," and that tasted good. I left my payment AND tip on the table and left the premises. An employee motherfucker ran after me after I left the restaurant and yelled at me for not paying my bill. I said, "What the fuck?, I left my payment on the table." How embarrassing. read more

Stopped here for takeout last week after having seen pictures that looked really good. Called in our orders and arrived for pickup a few minutes before the food was ready, so had a chance to look around. This restaurant is pretty spacious and bright due to the big front windows. It was late morning on a weekday and a good number of people were dining here, but it wasn't full. The place seemed to be clean and neat, and the staff was friendly. Food came not too much later and our total was around $20-$25. Wife had the bacon, avocado, & cheese omelet(with potatoes and an English muffin) and I had the parma hash (eggs over medium atop a hash of fresh, seasoned potatoes, Italian sausage, house-roasted Crimini mushrooms, onions and tomatoes with melted Parmesan, mozzarella and fresh herbs). Their offerings are not your traditional breakfast favorites, and there are a lot of healthy concoctions here. They have daily specials that aren't on the menu, so I would advise asking about those if calling in an order to go. Our food was really good and the portion size was too. We will very likely return here again. read more

Delicious and healthy food! It can be a hassle to wait 45 minutes for a table however, everything else was great.
