    Chicken Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl
    Jarek M.

    Good breakfast, good mood. Service and atmosphere: This is clean and well organised restaurant with plenty of room for many guests. The staff were friendly and polite which made the service and atmosphere very enjoyable. Food and drinks: The menu was well structured. It was easy to read it and make quick food choices, which were pretty good I must say. I appreciated that you can choose dishes made with locally sourced and organic ingredients. I could definitely taste the quality of produce used. I opted for pesto bowl with quinoa, veggies, grilled chicken and added eggs. I was not disappointed. You have to try their fair trade coffee. They also offer alcoholic beverages. Pricing: $$ not overpriced and well worth it.

    I love First Watch. Every location that I've been to has been consistent with quality of food and service. I took myself on a brunch date and ordered my usual farm stand breakfast tacos (without chorizo). I wanted to try a juice too and the tangerine dream juice looked interesting to me so I wanted to try it. It was so delicious and refreshing. I hope it will be on the menu permanently and not as a seasonal item.

    Bacado Omelette

    First time reviewing, but have been here a couple of times before. Bacado- great protein dish, just not a lot of flavor. However, the potatoes are always Eggs Benedict was good, but not great. The new thing we tried was the lemon iced cinnamon roll. Super stingy on the icing, and my preference is gooey, soft cinnamon roll. This was crisp on outside and not gooey on inside. Their juices are really good, and the superfood bowl is excellent, if looking for a healthier brekkie. Service is always iffy here, we have sat for 15 minutes until someone comes for our drink order. Greatest thing is they ALWAYS have superb music playing, not the typical stuff.

    Farm Stand Breakfast Tacos
    Sebastian C.

    It was my last morning in Texas before heading back home and we were looking for a good looking breakfast joint and this place was our first and only choice. We arrived closer to noon and the restaurant was less than half full but the hostess asked for the name and number to enter me into the waitlist but was seated right away. Here's what I ordered for myself: **Farm Stand Breakfast Tacos: Delicious! Generally not a huge fan of chorizo but the tacos were amazing! The addition of fresh avocado slices and their housemade pico de gallo was the perfect touch! The beans on the side were also very delicious! (5/5) **Bob's Red Mill Buttered Grits: Not the best grits I've ever had but certainly not the worst. (3/5) Forgot the name of our server but the guy was amazing. He checked up on us very often and provided excellent service!

    Very fast service. Nice popular brunch area. Food was pretty good. The biscuits and gravy was good, $12.99

    Get the pumpkin pancake! So good! Great service as well. We always enjoy our visits here. Thanks first watch!

    Eggs Benedict first time at the first watch

    The food is ok. Been here quite a few times. Seems over priced for what it is. The seats a lot uncomfortable. The service is ok. Not my favorite place. I'm sure I'll be back but I can think of a few places that are less expensive and taste better

    First time trying this and loved it

    My go to for a good brunch. They never disappoint, so I'll definitely be back . Good customer service as well

    an update to my previous review a few years ago - we decided to try First Watch for brunch on our day off. i was hoping for some gluten free pancakes or waffles- but they don't offer those. they do however have the option for gluten free toast, quinoa breakfast bowls that are gluten free, and most of their omelets seem gluten free as well. they do have an allergen menu available here https://firstwatch.com/nutrition-and-allergens/ i had the upgraded egg sandwich, with gluten free bread and a side of fruit. it was ok, but nothing to write home about. next time i'll try an omelet with a side of gf toast. the presentation left a lot to be desired but us gf beggars can't be choosers i guess. they don't have any specialty hot coffees, only iced coffees. drip brew is the only hot coffee. they do not have splenda or sweet and low, only sugar and stevia. my partner had one of their fresh juices, the blue booster - which featured blueberries. it was delicious. the service was greatly improved from the last visit, although we were seated directly below a speaker that had music so loud we could barely hold a conversation. they had some gluten free goodies at the check out register too. we might try again for lunch.

    This is our second location dining at First Watch ( Charleston West Virginia ) & our experience was the same both times, perfect. We were seated promptly & ordered the Roast Beef Havarti sandwich & the Avocado Toast as well as their famous Million Dollar Bacon.Our meals were quickly delivered to us & everything was very, very good. If you're staying in the Houston area and you're heading to the Johnson Space Center give First Watch a try, because you will not be disappointed.

The atmosphere…read moreis beautiful, welcoming, and perfect for everything from a casual coffee to a family meal. The food was fresh, flavorful, and you can tell a lot of care goes into every dish and dessert. A special shoutout to Chris, our server, who made the experience even better. Chris was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Great service can make a huge difference, and Chris absolutely delivered. If you're looking for amazing food, delicious baked goods, and outstanding customer service, I highly recommend checking out Water Oak Cafe & Bakery. We'll definitely be back!

    Let me preface this review by stating that I have been to this establishment multiple times & had…read moreglowing, amazing service each time. However, my last experience with this establishment left a horrible taste in my mouth. Therefore, I am giving them an extra star for the previous experiences. On May 17th, 2026, my best friend and I had been looking forward to coming to Water Oak all day and had our taste buds set for the occasion. We were famished and had quite a day up until arriving. Upon entering the restaurant, we were very briefly greeted by the a Hispanic man who I assume is the manager and told that they were "no longer seating for the day". I glanced around and saw that every table inside WAS seated, however there were many tables outside that were empty. I asked about the patio stating that us where we preferred to sit anyway, and was met with that they were also not seating the patio at all for the rest of the day. However, there was a group of 3 women seated outside on the patio at that exact time. I didn't say anything, simply turned and left. After having "one of those days" hashing out something so minute with a person who clearly didn't want us in their place of business was not something I was about to do. Keep in mind, we came on a Sunday afternoon. Prime brunch time. We arrived at the restaurant around 2:30PM, and their website says they don't close until 4PM. I am a biracial black woman and my friend is white. I noticed a significant amount of White and Latino patrons, but a shocking lack of Black people. With Houston having one of the most diverse populations in the US, it is almost impossible not to see at least one individual of each ethnicity in a place at any given time. I am definitely not one that likes to pull the race card, because oftentimes that is not the issue. However, as someone who is familiar with the service industry I understand Sundays can be extremely overwhelming. And I am cognizant that not everything is that serious. But, I am also aware that a lot of people in the industry discriminate against people of color, with stigmas that we don't leave enough gratuity or we "don't fit the vibe of their establishment". And those 3 women seated on the patio? All White. After reading recent reviews, it seems that management is discriminating against people of color, more specifically Black folks. This is an extremely disheartening and sickening realization to make, seeing as I have given well over $1,000 worth of my money here but also enjoyed many meals without issue. To management: It breaks my heart to have to write this review and to be honest, I wouldn't have written it if I hadn't seen others posting about similar experiences in addition to also feeling discriminated against. I highly suggest that if you are "not seating" after a specific time, you announce this via social media or alert potential patrons with a sign or something of the sort. & obviously, there is such an issue with treatment towards POC that it is a noteworthy problem via your Google & Yelp reviews. You will have a much bigger fish to fry on your hands if you continue to let this issue go on unrectified. I would be willing to return if I felt things were to be changed for the better in the future! Hopefully this review sparks a much needed conversation and brings attention to an area which needs work.

The ambiance was nice as we walked in, and after being quickly seated next to a window, the atmosphere was nice. They did end up covering the window before we started eating, and the little bulb way above us and candle did not really provide light enough for us to eat (I get it is mood lighting, but I like seeing what I eat). The food was really solid, though. A few times I've been in the past it was all too salty, but this time around it was much better. I got the Farm Bird, and it was very juicy and had a very nice crunch. The Fish and Chips were nice and flaky, while the Pork Chop was extremely juicy and rich. The shrimp in the rigatoni was definitely oversalted, as well as the broccolini greens in the pork chop dish. The appetizers we got (Brussels Sprouts and Spinach Artichoke Dip) were both okay, though I prefer garlic bread to the chip for the dip and the sprouts were a little one note. The whiskey cake itself was very good, though I recommend only one plate for a group of 6 or less because of how rich it is, especially if you get the ice cream addition. Overall a very surprising experience, and while it carries a heavy price tag, it is absolutely a good choice if you're looking for a nicer meal out here.

They have small breakfast items such as yogurt or oatmeal bowls, you can also create your own egg bowl, or you can have one of their breakfast sandwiches. You order at their counter, and the lady was very nice and so helpful, since she had asked if it was our first time there. I ended up ordering their Farm Stand which is a bagel sandwich that has an egg patty, American cheese, and bacon. I had that with their Cuban Latte with soy milk and vanilla. My friend ordered their Avocado Toast, crushed avocado, Pico, cream cheese, and topped with a crumbled/crushed hard boiled egg on your choice of toast, she had that with a Cuban Latte as well with caramel. Everything tasted good! The only complaint I had was that the Latte wasn't sweet enough for me so we had to add sweetener, but the gentleman who made our order said we could ask them to make it sweeter next time when we put in our order that way it blends better with the coffee. They also offer baked goods such as mini donuts, macarons, cheesecake bites, mini cinnamon rolls, and more! You're also able to get lunch or early dinner here as well, I haven't seen that menu yet but their Liquids menu seems pretty large. I can't wait to come back and try their other items on the menu!
