It was pretty busy, but there was still seating available and we were accommodated fairly quickly. The place definitely has an upscale diner feel, and I liked the little gift shop up front. The menu had plenty of delicious-sounding options. I ended up going with the Original Scrambowl, and it did not disappoint. Everything came together really well, but that biscuit was the standout for me! So good on its own and even better with everything else on the plate/bowl. Everyone in our party really enjoyed their food, and the overall experience was great. Good food, welcoming atmosphere, and great service! Come hungry!

Really surprised at how crunchy the fried food stayed and how runny the poached eggs stayed even over delivery. Oh it also came with a blueberry muffin which had a nice, crunchy sugar topping. Would definitely get this meal again. They even packed Utensils and napkins without even asking, seems nowadays you don't get them unless you ask and I always forget. Next time I think I'll try in person to see what the restaurant is like.

This…read morefamily-owned bakery and diner at 1330 Lake Woodlands Dr knows exactly how to make a special day even sweeter with their legendary homemade treats. We went all-in on the desserts, and every single one was outstanding. The chocolate pie was rich, velvety, and deeply satisfying--perfectly balanced sweetness with a flaky crust that melted in my mouth. The pecan pie was a Texas classic done right: loaded with crunchy, fresh pecans in a gooey, caramel-like filling that tasted incredibly fresh and homemade. And the cream puffs covered in chocolate? Absolute perfection--light, airy pastry filled with luscious cream and generously draped in silky chocolate ganache. Each bite was a delightful contrast of textures and flavors. The portions are generous, the quality is top-notch (fresh, no preservatives, old-fashioned goodness), and the bakery case full of options made it hard to stop at just these. It's the ideal spot for anyone with a serious sweet tooth--whether dining in for that cozy atmosphere or grabbing treats to go. House of Pies turned my birthday into a memorable indulgence I'll be thinking about for a long time. If you love exceptional pies and pastries, this place is a must-visit in The Woodlands / Houston area. We'll be back for more soon! Highly, highly recommend.

I had to come leave a review for our experience at First Watch on I-45 in Conroe because WOW. From…read morethe moment we walked in, the hospitality was unmatched. I came in with my mom, nana, husband, and my service dog, and our server Makayla genuinely made this one of the best dining experiences I've had in a very long time. What shocked me most is finding out she's actually pretty new, because she handled that busy brunch rush like a seasoned professional. She was incredibly attentive, kind, patient, and so thoughtful the entire time we were there. She made sure my family's coffee cups never went empty, constantly checked on us without hovering, and somehow managed to keep everything flowing smoothly even while the restaurant was packed. One thing that really stood out to me was how caring she was toward my service dog. Not everybody pays attention to those little details, but she did immediately. I ordered the Trio Breakfast with a plain waffle specifically for him, and without me even having to repeat myself, she made sure there was absolutely no butter or syrup on it because she remembered it was for my dog. That level of attentiveness meant a lot to me. Now let's talk about the MILLION DOLLAR POTATOES. Whoever created those deserves a raise immediately. As a pregnant woman in my first trimester, eating has honestly been a struggle lately because almost nothing sounds good or stays satisfying. Those potatoes were one of the first things in a while that actually made me excited to eat. They were savory, comforting, flavorful, and honestly addictive. I was so invested in those potatoes that I can barely even remember what the rest of my family ordered . I asked Makayla what was in them because I was genuinely blown away, and she took the time to explain everything to me so sweetly. She also made sure our food came out hot and quickly, and you could tell she truly cared about people having a good experience, not just "doing her job." I even asked to speak with her manager because excellent service deserves recognition. Aaron, the manager, was just as wonderful. You could tell he genuinely took pride in hearing positive feedback about Makayla, especially as a new hire. He thanked us for coming in, was extremely kind and informative, and honestly helped create such a welcoming atmosphere overall. I told my family I wish I could throw Makayla, Aaron, and the million dollar potatoes into my suitcase and bring them all back home to California with me . Unfortunately, there are no First Watch locations in California, which honestly feels criminal at this point. To Makayla and Aaron: thank you for making a pregnant woman, her family, and her service dog feel genuinely cared for. In a busy brunch restaurant, that level of hospitality is rare, and it absolutely did not go unnoticed. We will remember this experience for a very long time.

My party of 11 came in on Monday August 10th at 9:05pm. It seemed pretty slow and there were plenty…read moreof tables available. We waited about 10 minutes before being greeted. Then eventually the manager, Jennifer, came over and begrudgingly asked us "Can y'all eat fast? We close in 45 minutes." while giving us a very annoyed look. She proceeded to let us know that she needed to clean a table and push it together for us, it took her (without exaggeration) nearly 20 minutes to clean a table. For her to take her time, almost 20 minutes, to get something ready for us, it didn't seem that there was a real, actual urgency for us to "eat fast" almost an hour before closing. At this point my group had been standing, waiting to be seated in a nearly empty restaurant for nearly 40 minutes. My group mentioned that it seemed pretty intentional with how slow she was moving so that we would give up on waiting and leave. I have 15 years in the restaurant industry, working for the same restaurant going on 9 years. We have plenty of guests come in minutes before closing and gladly accept their business. There's a way to go about things and this was not it. With the way we were treated by Jennifer, we will be looking for other dining options when we are in the area.

I loved how bright and inviting the restaurant felt, and the staff were just as welcoming and kind. Now let's get into the food. The kids ordered pancakes and when those plates hit the table... FLAPJACKS. Those things were huge! Thankfully, they weren't just big for show they were flavorful too, and the kids thoroughly enjoyed them. Meanwhile, I went in a completely different direction with the **Greek Salad**, and OMG it hit the spot. Fresh, loaded with toppings, and every bite had a little bit of everything. I have zero complaints about that salad. Between the friendly service, bright atmosphere, good food, and a menu with enough variety for everyone to find something, this was an easy win for us. The Toasted Yolk has officially been added to our breakfast rotation. We'll definitely be back and judging by that menu, I already have some exploring to do.
