First Watch 1950-15 East Greyhound Pass, Carmel, IN 46032

"My brother and I connected yesterday at this location on January 10, 2024. Before we are even able to walk up to the door, a smiling employee opened the exterior door for us and welcomed us in. She immediately grabbed the number of menus she needed and walked us to our table. She happened to be our server as well. I can’t comment enough about how Pleasant kind she was during our visit. It is not often these days that you get amazing service. But I can honestly say that this is the best I’ve had. In a very long time. I’ve worked in the restaurant industry for over 35 years. The servers name was Lisa. Lisa, thank you for taking such great care of us. You truly are a very kind soul. I hope life is treating you well, and I truly hope, that first watch takes great care of you. You are definitely someone in high demand."

"Always a great place to have a healthy brunch! The staff is always welcoming and the food is always great quality. Love the turkey sausage. Especially well done! Make sure you get here early as this place fills up fast. Pros - Great quality when it comes to recipes - Juices are always well crafted - Staff is friendly and always attentive - Great location and love the outside settings when it gets warm Cons - None Informational - Get here early, always can get busy real quick. Always a great time coming to first watch"

"This is my go to breakfast place. I usually order the elevated egg sandwich. Their house made juices are also a go to for me. There may be a slight wait to get seated but I don’t mind since they always try to do their best. Update (1 year later): I still enjoy eating here. You cannot go wrong!"

"Went today for brunch, had about 30 minute wait. For drinks we ordered bloody Marys and sangria - both were good! Then we ordered the roast beef and havarti sandwich, the Choose 2 (Cobb salad and Monterey club), BLT eggs Benedict, and smoked salmon eggs Benedict. Everything was well prepared, well presented, and very tasty! Prices were good, too. Before we left, we got the gingerbread doughnuts to take home, and they were also very good. We appreciated our great server, and he kept us well supplied with bottles of cold water to keep our glasses full! We love that. Everything was great, so we definitely want to go back soon!"

"Loved my first trip to First Watch. We sat outside. The avocado toast was good and so was the smoked salmon eggs Benedict. Pay at the register after you eat. They have tap to pay (awesome). Pretty good little brunchy place in the middle of a strip mall. Update: subsequent visits were not their best show. Waited WAY too long for sub-par food and poor service. The water tasted like old dish water, and the food was just not good. Unlikely I will return. Too many other options to waste that much time on a lackluster experience."
