History

Established in 2014.

Back in 1983, First Watch’s two founders wanted to be able to play golf in the afternoon and have dinner with their young families every night so they decided to open a restaurant that closed at 2:30 every day and specialized in Breakfast, Brunch and Lunch. They named it «First Watch» — a nautical term relating to the first shift of the day. Word about their «fresh, new concept» spread and before long this daytime café became very popular and the idea of bringing the First Watch experience to other places was born. First Watch debuted in Atlanta in 1983 and has been serving generations of friends and neighbors here ever since. More than 30 years later, First Watch is still a fan-​favorite with more than 200 «Best Breakfast» and «Best Brunch» accolades, including receiving the highest rankings from Consumer Reports.

Hipster vibe, great food. The kale drink isn’t the same consistency as throwing your kale + veggies into a nutribullet — it’s a little watery. That is my only complaint and missing star. The staff is friendly, they were on a wait but moved very quickly, clean bathrooms & the food was EXCELLENT! The avocado salad with tomato soup was so good and filling! My other half got a Gruyère and ham sandwich that he was happy with as well.
Definitely a spot I’ll return to next time I visit.
Parking SUCKS.

This, like all First Watch restaurants I’ve been in, is a bright, airy, clean space. My husband, who never comments on décor, just said «I do like how they decorate these places.»
The menu is descriptive and interesting. You can order healthy, lean meals, or you can load on the carbs and fat. The food has been good and prepared as ordered. I think it’s a bit expensive for a breakfast/​lunch restaurant, ($ 7 for oatmeal, although it is oatmeal with lots of stuff in it,) but they say their products are fresh and organic, which is important to all of us, right?
The food was served quickly. Eggs were perfect, the syrup was hot. Lots of little things done right. And the whole grain toast was crunchy and delicious.
They also have a great website, which includes nutritional information.

I was really disappointed this time with this location, but it turned around in the end! We live close so this is always our weekend cheat spot! We normally come on Saturday and everything is great but today nothing was right. We waited about 10 minutes to be seated which okay they were busy no worry. We ordered food and had to wait a while. Then my husbands omelet came out incorrect. I ordered a side of greens and came with no dressing. The waiter corrected my husbands order and when he came with the right one he said it was on them for their mistake! I like that they took ownership and wanted to make sure we were happy! Disputes the mistakes we still left happy! I mean shit happens and they were extremely busy. We will be back and thank you for the excellent customer service!

I went here with a group of about 12 & most of use were terribly disappointed. Watery, cold omelette, painfully slow service, parking was a nightmare & several orders were wrong. And when I mentioned it upon paying, the cashier literally laughed. Never went back.

I absolutely love this place. My daughter and I are visiting family here and found First Watch on Unilocal and were not disappointed.
The menu is loaded w whole foods and clean eats. You’re able to keep it lite or indulge. i started with the morning meditation from the juice menu which was cold crisp and delightful. Then I had the chikichamga that came highly recommended by other Unilocalers and it was delish. My daughter had the waffle w fresh berry compote and she ate it all and said she loved it. Their homemade multigrain bread is soft and fresh.
If you’re looking for clean and delicious well priced meal First Watch is the place to go.

My first time. Food was delicious and staff smiled and were extremely nice! I had an omelette, and the eggs were extremely fluffy. And it was a beautiful dish. I would definitely eat here again and regularly during my lunch break.

Came here after church and there was a wait. That’s usually a good sign and table for 2 was ready almost immediately. I ordered the skillet hash with eggs, potatoes, avocado, onions, etc with a fruit cup side. It was delicious and fresh tasting and the whole wheat bread that came with was good too. I’ll def be back to try other items.

I’ve been to many first watch establishments and this about the same as the rest. Good good, good service, and overall a good time.

What a difference a fresh meal makes. Decided to try First Watch for a mid-​week brunch, and we were not disappointed.
First Watch has been in the area for a while now, but I never knew it existed even though I have drove and walked past it several times. Thanks Unilocal for helping me discover this gem.
From breakfast to soups, salads and sandwiches, this casually trendy place knows how to serve up delicious dishes of yumminess.

I am a huge breakfast fan. This may be because most breakfast items come with bacon and/​or sausage, but that is another thing all together. So being the fan of breakfast food I am, I get a little bored with the run-​of-​the-​mill breakfast food. One can only have the same omelette so many times. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised to find different choices at First Watch.
They were on a ’20 minute’ wait when we arrived, which I wasn’t sure why, 1⁄3 of the tables were empty and waiting to be cleaned. They must not have a/​enough busers to keep up. But the wait was realistically only 5 minutes. The service was good, they brought us a water pitcher thing to refill our own waters, which was nice (I was thirsty!).
I was instantly attracted to the chickichanga. There was everything in this I wanted, something different, (chorizo) sausage, CHEESE, avocado, and a few other things thrown in there. I was pleasantly surprised by the flavors, how easily my hanger pains melted away. I thought the portions were perfect, I was definitely full, but not so much I needed a nap. The boyfriend disagreed, but he eats way more than I normally do. We both felt it was a little pricey for breakfast food, but I enjoyed the meal and the service so I wasn’t too bothered by it.

I’ve heard great things about First Watch for a while now and finally made my way into one and was not disappointed. With a very neat, clean, and cool appearance, it has a huge seating capacity for a breakfast joint and the is a small section for communal seating if that’s your thing.
The food was all very good with us deciding on an omelet, fruit coveted french toast, and a quinoa energy bowl that was very tasty. For drinks, the coffee was actually very good and we both got a kale tonic that tasted more like cucumber than kale and again was actually very good.
The staff was very professional and friendly and all of our food and beverages were out super fast. Although I don’t go out to eat breakfast very often except on Sundays for brunch, when I do I would love to come back here for the fresh ingredients and ease of getting in and out.

Wow! What a delicious find! We had three different dishes, and they were all amazing. I had market hash and added avocado. It was creamy, meaty, and the perfect balance meat, egg, and veggies. The crab cake Benedict was delicious, and packed with crab. Finally, the works omelette is meaty and satisfying. The best brunch we have had in a while. Give it a try!!!

YEESSSS!!! This First Watch is as good as the Tyrone store. It is laid out a little differently, and the high top walk-​in table is a medium top here, but that’s OK.
The food was identical to what I had at Tyrone-​the Acapulco Express omlette, with Chorizo, onion, avacado and monterey jack cheese and a dallop of sour cream-​was delicious. The oven potatoes and side of turkey sausage were both excellent, as well.
The service was friendly and effective.
