This First Watch location in Winter Park was open on New Year's Day so we enjoyed our first meal of 2026 here! There was a 5-10 minute wait when we arrived but that gave us time to look over the menu before we got seated. I love that they serve both breakfast and lunch! Surprisingly they were out of bacon on our visit so my husband got ham instead with his meal. My son greatly enjoyed his kids waffle, sausage, and fruit. It came with a small cup of milk (refills extra charge). I tried one of their pick two lunch meals, sandwich and salad. First Watch has a very family oriented atmosphere and service was good despite it being busy. I'm glad to visit this location again when I'm on the outskirts of Winter Park! read more

Walked in party of 5 on a Saturday morning. Not too busy. Just the right amount of noise level. We were able to talk with each other and have decent conversations without yelling across the table. Our waiter dropped off a coffee pitcher, didn't explain anything to us. We thought it was complimentary and didn't think to ask. Before we knew it he came and said "I see you're already drinking the coffee, did you guys need extra cream/sugar?" We were confused. Ended up paying for it, that's fine. But that tactic definitely got you to buy coffee even if everyone at your table doesn't drink. What a waste. Felt bamboozled. Will make sure to decline coffee next time. All the food was good. 2 different proteins for the Trifecta, 0/10 do not recommend the burnt sausages (came out burnt and dry) and the smoke ham. Very dry. Someone else got the omelette and oatmeal. They seemed to enjoy it. But I didn't taste it so I can't comment on that. Service was okay. Parking was plenty. Food was meh. We kept having to ask for things. Instead of him checking on us, we were literally trying to hunt him down. read more

First Watch is always a solid go-to for breakfast. The food is consistently great and super fresh every time I come. It's one of my favorites for a reason. I usually get an omelet and it never misses -- flavorful, filling, and always cooked perfectly. Service is usually really good too, and the vibe is bright and comfortable for a morning meal. Definitely a dependable spot if you want a good breakfast without overthinking it. The million dollar bacon has also became a favorite amongst myself and friends, YUM! read more

Stopped and had a late breakfast because I could not find a different restaurant. So very happy to have stumbled upon this place. Service was great. The hostess delightful and the waitress charming and attentive! Light, bright airy and clean ambiance. Coffee was delicious a d fresh. I had the Morning Meditation juice - Orange, lemon, turmeric, organic ginger, agave nectar and beet...wonderful! For breakfast I had the Chile chorizo omlette. With chorizo, avocado, green chile, onion with cheddar and jack cheeses. Very tasty! I indulged in the million dollar bacon and it was excellent. Fresh, delicious food. Highly recommend...I would go back. read more

First Watch always gives me nice/healthy weekend morning vibes. Always a safe choice for breakfast, brunch, or lunch! This time around, I ordered the Chicken Pesto Bowl, and it hit the spot. The chicken was super tender, and the pesto had a really fresh, herby flavor. The mix of veggies, quinoa, and roasted tomatoes made it feel hearty but still light. Just what I needed! Though they said the waiting time was 15 - 20 minutes, we received a text letting us know that our table was ready after 10ish minutes, which was a nice surprise, since the place was packed! Our waiter was kind, knowledgeable, and quick with the drinks. He also offered helpful recommendations, which we appreciated. However, the overall service experience fell short as we waited quite a while for our food, unfortunately. read more

Went in for breakfast with friends around 915a on Saturday. I was quickly sat at a table and my friends arrived soon after. The ac was blowing strong but I appreciated it since it was so warm outside. Started off with the lavender mimosa ($10) which has subtle flavors and was so tasty. Instead of a breakfast meal, I went with the full sized roast beef sandwich and its side salad which was just arugula with other leafy greens ($15). The sandwich was good, cheesy toasted bread with a few slices of roast beef, a bit of Chorizo (?) and cooked onions with more leafy greens. The small tub of horseradish sauce was delicious and really gave the sandwich that extra kick it needed. The service was quick and friendly, our food all came out super fast. read more

Terrible experience. Sat down and for ten minutes completely ignored. Three tables around me were each served or at bare minimum quickly asked if their table would like a pot of coffee. Nothing for me ...I gave up and left. I love first watch and had great experiences in Missouri and Arkansas, but I don't recommend the one in winter park. read more

This is our favorite First Watch location! Service is fast and the food is always great! To drink, I had a Bloody Mary. It was delicious and came with a piece of their millionaire bacon. For my meal, I had the Belgian waffle and a side of the upgraded potatoes. Everything was amazing. This is a solid location and handles the brunch rush really well. It's also a newer location, so they have a bar and great outdoor patio seating! read more

First time here. I heard wonderful things. I took my family for a late breakfast. The service was lacking. Olivia couldn't answer questions about the menu and directed me to a QR code on the menu which took me to the website. The side of potato I order for my toddler was mostly burnt. Overall we were unimpressed. read more

I'm glad I gave this place another chance. The staff checked on me a lot, since it took me awhile to choose my meal. I ordered a pomegranate sunrise. The water poured my first glass and left a cute self serve bottle. It was AMAZING! I'm a tequila girl and I was super impressed. I also got the Belgium waffle, which was nice and fluffy. The grits were good but I would've preferred more cheese. I had a great time! Can't wait to go back! read more

The Hostess was rude. If you can't handle Sunday brunch rush there's no need to work in a First Watch. Took our business to the broken egg cafe down the street. read more

We went here twice during our visit to Orlando. It is definitely the BEST breakfast place that we found. The service was excellent - especially on our first visit when Timo served us - OUTSTANDING!! Just a great person, super friendly and caring. The ambience was warm and welcoming. I LOVED my Floridian French Toast - and the (extra charge) real maple syrup made it perfection on a plate. The coffee just kept coming - thank you! Everywhere was clean including the rest rooms and PLENTY of parking!! Two thumbs up Review #61 2023 and Review #990 EVER! read more

On 8/29/2025 our server Felicity has to be the worst of the worst. The only thing she did right was bring coffee to the table. She took our order and never came back. No water in which l asked for, she didn't even bring the food or forks l had to flag down a worker for water and after all of this she returned to the table to say how is everything? The worst service ever. read more

The food and service was great, we had a relaxing meal. Ladies bathroom was clean, my opinion is if the bathrooms aren't clean, the kitchen isn't either, a good manager makes sure they are both kept clean. read more

I order from here all the time for Lunch. It's always fresh and tasty! I always have to get a Kale Tonic, they are so good! One of the only green juices I've tried and like. My go to is the Market Veggie Sandwich, the crimini mushrooms are so delicious. One of my all time favorite sandwiches. I tried something different today, the Pesto Chicken Quinoa. This was also really good! I definitely recommend First Watch for brunch or lunch time. They are consistently good, you won't be disappointed! read more

Although there are no reservations, this is place is worth the wait. We were seated and our server was very busy but friendly. The ambiance is very pleasant. We ordered our food and I had the eggs Benedict with the mint mocha ice coffee and it was so good. The rest of the entrees looked good too. I'd definitely recommend this place, but be ready to wait for your table. read more

Absolutely love this place for breakfast or brunch. The food is always so fresh and meticulously crafted. Like your momma or grandma home cooking. The menu sources their ingredients that are in season and you can taste it in the food It's always on point. I ordered the Alaskan salmon Eggs benedict on top of ciabatta bread with a savory and delicious lemony hollandaise sauce. My friend ordered the pesto chicken bowl and added an over medium egg on top. Looked fantastic! The coffee was whatever but let's face it, we're here for the banging food! Service was efficient and the food came out fast. One of the best breakfast spots in town! read more

First Watch - Salmon Eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

Brunch with my daughter and grand babies. Was excited to see chicken tender sandwich with bacon and avocado since I wasn't feeling eggs. Paired with a side of fried potatoes. The potatoes weren't seasoned, just chunks deep fried. The chicken was a little over cooked but not bad. I don't like ranch so I asked for some honey mustard. They don't carry it. I asked for BBQ sauce. They don't have that either. I asked what types of sauces they do have. Ranch. Or catsup. My daughter ordered French toast, it was pound cake dipped in egg and fried. Served with strawberries, but no strawberry syrup or sauce. No powdered sugar. No whipped cream. Coffee was good, but never got refill (asked twice) The pic looks good, but if you want anything other than ranch, skip this. Service was good - great waiter, but wouldn't recommend. read more

One of my favorite brunch spots in Orlando. I am signed up for their monthly newsletter, so I can keep up with the new dishes. The coffee is always hot and fresh and the food is always delicious! They have a base menu that rarely changes that you can enjoy year round. I like coming in for the seasonal dishes. They usually switch up the breakfast burritos they have. In the Fall/Winter they have more hearty dishes. In the spring and summer, dishes that are lighter. But the main focus is healthy and delicious. With the decor of a farmhouse/ rustic feel and the truest friendly and kind staff, every dining experience has been delightful! read more

Popular chain restaurant for breakfast. This location is quite large and nicely decorated. It was very clean and bright inside. The waiter was prompt and brought two coffee carafe for the table. There were 6 in the party so he gave us enough time to review the menu. I had the salmon egg Benedict that came with a side salad. The bread was more of a baguette which was quite crunchy, different than the usual English muffin. The waiter also brought samples of kale juice for us to try, he was really promoting it but no one ordered it. The overall experience was good. read more

This was one of the cutest spots to try for brunch here in Orlando. All tables were full, but service was great and they had us only waiting for about 15 minutes for our table. Even when we got our food, we only had to wait a short amount of time for our food after we ordered. The restaurant was very vibrant and casual. They had a special menu for the holidays which we very much enjoyed. The pictures don't do the food justice. It was delicious! read more

Such a good place to stop in to for breakfast. Staff is so pleasant! I ordered the smoked salmon eggs benedict! I got potatoes on the side. The potatoes were great.

It is always a great experience when I come to this location. But this day I wasn't too pleased with my selection. The customer service was great at the beginning of my meal, but throughout my meal, it seemed as if I was being forgotten. They had the staff (from my point of view), and there wasn't a rush. So, the neglect of customer service I didn't understand. Maybe they didn't think I would tip well enough. The pancake is always good when I order them, but the syrup I was suggested to get wasn't to my liking. Maybe because it's an upcharge (a dollar something), I was expecting more in taste. And it wasn't enough syrup for me. I should have purchased another bottle. The million dollar potatoes were a little burnt. Luckily, I like my food somewhat burnt, but this was too crispy for me. It made it taste extra salty. The mimosa was beautiful. You can't go wrong with that. read more

Surprisingly got in fairly quickly on Memorial Day for a party of 8! Food was served a good 15-20 minutes after ordering, which was a plus! First watch is one of my favorite breakfast spots! Everything is always fresh and organic! Today I decide to try 2 of their seasonal menu items; the watermelon wake up and the blueberry muffin top griddle cakes! The watermelon wake up was super refreshing and light! The blueberry cakes were the star of the show! You get 3 cakes, they're on the smaller side, topped with granola, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, a hint of cinnamon in the batter, and the jam! More so on the sweeter side, so I didn't have to use syrup, but not as sweet as I thought it would've been. The pancakes came with no sides so I did a order of eggs and chicken patties! It was my first time doing the Pattie's and they were sooooo good! I always recommend the trifecta because it's foolproof and you can't go wrong with a classic breakfast! First visit to the WP location, but staff and service were friendly and quick. read more

I'd heard great things about First Watch, so we took advantage of an opportunity to visit when in Winter Park. We went Sunday morning at about 8:30. There was plenty of parking and no wait. We had great service, and great food. We were in time for the pumpkin pancake breakfast, which was delicious. We ate it too fast to take a picture. We tried the infamous million dollar bacon. It was great. Sweet and savory. read more

I came in with my mother and grandmother and this is the second time that I have had problems. I order the same thing trifecta add a cup of grits and they always forget my grits. My sever Ethan was not a good server at all. I will never return here again and have told my friends not to come to this location either. I had to wait for Syrup and an extra plate for over 10 mins. He never came back to the table and when he did he act like we were bothering him. I watched him go to all the other tables with a smile on his face and talking to them. My mother asked for well done sasuage it came out cold. If he would have came back he would have known. I hope he doesn't treat everyone like this. We were done eating the plates remained on the table meanwhile I'm watching him empty everyone else table around us. I have never felt so belittled and hurt In my life. read more

This First Watch is my favorite location. The ambience is so pretty, and the service is always excellent. Conveniently located right across the street from Trader Joe's, it's the perfect place for a meal before or after grocery shopping. The food is consistently amazing. Recently, I tried their lunch menu for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. The soup and half sandwich combo, especially with the soft and tasty sourdough bread, was delightful. read more

It's been quite some time since I've been to First Watch. I finally made it to this Winter Park location after they moved from Maitland. I truly love the decor and ambience. They had the window open so the crisp fresh air could flow through. It was a little too cool to sit outside, but I appreciated that they have outdoor seating as well. I went for a breakfast meeting, and started off with a drink from the juice bar. I ordered the Morning Meditation. It consisted of orange, lemon, turmeric, organic ginger, agave nectar, and beet juice. Needless to say, it was quite tasty! I also ordered the Market Skillet Hash. It was sooo good!! I would order it again and again and again! Crimini mushrooms, zucchini, shallots, red peppers, baby spinach, and mozzarella and goat cheese topped with a couple of eggs over medium. And a biscuit on the side. Definitely didn't go wrong with this one. I don't normally do chains, but I'm looking forward to my next visit. The service was up to par. Truly no complaints. A great dining experience indeed. read more
