First Watch

"We’ve eaten at this First Watch location several times. It’s usually fairly busy with a wait, especially on weekends, so be prepared to wait during peak times. Other than that, we typically have a great experience. The interior is decorated creatively with a local Bradenton theme. The wait staff are excellent - usually friendly and attentive. Drinks are refilled regularly and orders taken in a timely manner. In terms of food, prices are a bit high compared to other breakfast places, but this is a bit expected for a large chain restaurant. Food quality and taste is usually excellent though. If we had to give a complaint, at times, such as during our last visit, it can be a bit too salty. We do typically like to try new menu items each time and they do offer seasonal items. During this last visit, we tried the Brooklyn Breakfast sandwich with potatoes and the blackberry lemon cream French toast. The sandwich was flavorful, but the French toast was too sweet for our liking. However, overall, we still enjoyed the dining experience and will be back again soon!"

"I had another great breakfast here. The service and food are always great. I would say they do have the best pancakes around. The Million Dollar Bacon is a little pricey, but worth it! They even have some health choices. It can be a little noisy."

"Ordered through the restaurant website for delivery. Several items missing and contacted restaurant. Was told by manager to contact doordash. No resolution because doordash says to contact the restaurant. This is also the purple haze i received. Thats basically lemonade.What a joke"

"I have eaten at various First Watch restaurants since 2006. Each restaurant is different in it's own way. Luckily for me this location is about a mile away from my new house. The restaurant was clean, quiet, and the service was really fast. I ordered a roast beef sandwich and my favorite soup, tomato basil. (if you didn't know, tomato basil is the soup they serve every day.) They also have a great breakfast selection. They also have a fantastic seasonal menu (like every season)."

"Yesterday, My son had a cast and they opened the door for us. And they let my son sit in his wheelchair. Food was cheap, About 30 dollars. Coffee was bitter. But the service and atmosphere was amazing. My son had 2 muffins, he said they were amazing. I had pancakes and they were delicious. They accidentally gave us the wrong receipt and gave us the right receipt. I would recommend First Watch to everyone I know."
