First Watch

what a gem! Husband and I had a wonderful brunch today. despite a line of folks waiting to be sat we were at a table within 10-15 min. Hostess and waitress were friendly and food was fantastic. lots of healthy and decadent choices. fruit on french toast was fresh and bacon is next level. Clean and open seating with music at a low volume so folks can speak easily. this was our first time but wont be the last.

Waited an hour for a table but I was excited to try since I heard great things but it was definitely not worth the wait. Portions were small, nothing compared to the pictures online. Sweet potatoes were cold. Arugula was old and avocado was brown. I do not recommend this place at all and I will definitely not be returning. Edit: My concerns were heard and management reached out to make it known that they appreciated my honest feedback. I am very happy that this company cares about their customers!

My husband and I had a great time at First Watch in Bowie, MD. The food was on point, the staff were very friendly including the manager/owner at the front who checked on us and whom we had a great conversation with after our meal. The environment is very friendly and we will definitely be back to try some of the other dishes.

Service, service, service. This is one of several First Watch establishments I’ve been to across several states. The food was quality yet I have experienced better execution and service at the other First Watches I’ve visited. It took 1 1/2 hours to be seated and receive our food. The management fixed the issues we experienced with our orders. We waited extended times periodically for the server to visit our table.

This place needs better management or something…. You try to order food via the app to make the process faster but the app is 90% down. Then when you place an order in the store they take forever. & the fact that they say they will call/text your phone when your order is ready is a lie. They had my order sitting on the counter for 20 min without letting me know. Then when i get my food they only give me a kids portion lol. This place has potential but its dropping

The service here was great. My fiancé, in-law and I went here for food this morning (well, technically yesterday morning b/c I’m making this around 1am). Although they were short-staffed for the day, everyone there was professional and everything that was served was great. There was an altercation w/ some HORRIBLE customer that caused things to slow down, but all the lovely black women working there kept it highly professional the entire time and made sure everyone was well taken care of. Please make sure you prepare a tip when you come through because they truly deserve it for all the traffic they handle day to day. Also, try the brownies they keep at the entrance. They’re worth it even if you aren’t a fan of chocolate 😹 Tbh, we didn’t try as much as we wanted to, but everything we ordered was amazing. Get the millionaire bacon and a side of potatoes w/ your order for sure. AVOID the carrot crush 😭 there’s no way to make it taste good
