First Watch 721 Gulf Breeze Parkway, Gulf Breeze, FL 32561

"Great food, friendly and efficient staff! The first impression when you walk in is a clean restaurant. Front of house Staff was focused on service as they moved with purpose. The host smiled and was friendly as he led us to our table. They all looked as they were knowledgeable and had been working in the industry for years. Food was excellent and arrived quickly and hot. Eggs perfectly cooked, multigrain pancakes were light and fluffy. Potatoes were well seasoned. The only knock is they were a bit dry and the onions overcooked. I would come back!"

"Well, well, well, if you're expecting the same old fast food routine, don't even think about stepping into First Watch in Pensacola, Florida! This place is like a breath of fresh air in the world of fast food breakfast joints. We skeptically perused the menu, fully aware that good food doesn't always match those pretty pictures. But oh boy, did First Watch throw us a curveball with the MILLION DOLLAR BACON. It's like they've concocted some secret "Southern Crack" recipe – hardwood smoked bacon drenched in brown sugar, black pepper, cayenne, and a maple syrup drizzle. I swear I was licking my fingers after every sinful bite. For the main event, my husband tackled the STEEL-CUT OATMEAL and the CLASSIC BENEDICT. The oatmeal came adorned with berries, banana, pecans, and a freshly baked muffin of the day, while the Benedict featured poached cage-free eggs, smoked ham, vine-ripened tomato, and hollandaise on toasted ciabatta. He devoured them both with gusto. Feeling a pang of guilt for indulging in the Million Dollar Bacon, I opted for the healthier POWER BREAKFAST QUINOA BOWL, packed with quinoa, Italian sausage, mushrooms, tomatoes, kale, and topped with two basted cage-free eggs. A tasty redemption, I must say. Now, let's talk about the service. Stacey, our server, deserves a round of applause. Pleasant, helpful, and sporting a fun personality, she elevated our experience. When she asked if we needed anything else, my husband jokingly replied, "Someone to help us eat this fabulous assortment of culinary delight." To our surprise, Stacey promptly sat down, smirked, and said, "Here I am." Talk about going above and beyond! In a nutshell, we savored not only the food but also the delightful atmosphere and Stacey's top-notch service. First Watch was the perfect ending to our short trip. Beware, Pensacola – we'll be back for more of this breakfast paradise."

"First time trying First Watch. We have a few close to home but never got around trying them vacation is thw perfect tome! We were pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was great, and, the food was good. Definitely someplace we will try again."

"Woooow, super awesome perfect brunch restaurant. They have a drink never had before in my life, Purple Haze, it is made of lavender and lemon. Had the bulgian waffle and the oatmeal with fruit. The mini ginger donuts were awesome. The restaurant was clean and our waiter Stephanie offered superb customer service. The house coffee was super good, had four cups of coffee and was not enough. Please see the pictures. This is by far a better restaurant than , ihop, waffle house, panera bread, and broken egg, trust me on my analogy. It is a little bit as expensive as broken egg."

"Good place for food. I have been here a few times for lunch and have usually had a great experience. The food here is always pretty good and not that pricey. The place is clean and the service is usually good. The last time I came was an exception. The service was a lot slower and the staff seemed disorganized. The people at the front almost sat us before people who were already waiting. They then proceeded to sit a group who came after us first. It was also a much longer wait for food than usual. We came in a little later, so the place wasn't super crowded when we were there. While the service wasn't great last time, it is usually really good. The food is also really good here. Overall, I would still recommend this place."
