Had not been here in a while so a friend of mine and I popped in on a Friday around 10:00 a.m. they were not busy so we were seated very quickly in a lovely area with a big sunny window. It appeared that there was only one person waiting tables so it took a little while to get our menu and drinks. Our server was very nice, friendly, and offered good suggestions to my friend who had never eaten here before.There was a little mix up on my trifecta as I ordered the multi grain pancake & received a waffle. I checked with my friend to make sure I ordered correctly, and she assured me that I had asked for the pancake. Our server was very sweet and quickly ordered my pancake. My eggs were cooked perfectly, albeit a little cold. Not everyone knows how to cook medium well eggs and the chef at First Watch has this down!They have some amazing power drinks, an excellent kids menu, and a wide variety of interesting sandwiches, salads and breakfast items. Items. No matter how eclectic you're taste is, anyone and everyone can find something delectable at First Watch.The restrooms were extremely clean, as was the entire restaurant. There was a bus person standing by and as soon as anyone's plate was empty, he was right on it.We sat there for quite a while, visiting and no one really bothered us. As soon as we noticed the restaurant was getting busy and that there was a waiting line, we headed out.It's fairly easy to find, off of Patterson road, just past the Walgreens in the little strip mall down the hillKid-friendliness: Family friendly atmosphere!

Delicious food and friendly service in a casual atmosphere. I particularly enjoyed the steak hash and the warm compote they served with the waffles.

Dined at First Watch yesterday for the first time. Had lunch with a friend, and we both had the half sandwich/half soup combination. She had the Monterey Club sandwich, and I had the Market Veggie. We both had the tomato/basil soup. Everything was extremely tasty, and my veggie sandwich was the best I've ever eaten!

My wife and I really enjoyed the meal we had. Sandwiches and salad, or soup. It was all very good. And when they make a mistake, they correct it right away. It is a must try type of place. And it's not too expensive.

I'm shocked at what you get for $17...basically a side of potatoes with tiny bits of spinach, one mushroom and toast. We ordered two farmhouse skillets without eggs or cheese and God forbid they throw in some extra veggies with those items removed. This was incredibly tiny. The potatoes were also undercooked, incredibly salty with virtually no other veggies. I'll order a reasonably priced side of potatoes elsewhere next time. Stunningly overpriced. $66 for breakfast and we need to order something else for actual breakfast now. Trying to attach a photo of what we received, it's unbelievable how little you get for the price here.

I recently had breakfast at First Watch in Grand Junction, and I was thoroughly impressed by their Quinoa Power Bowl. It's not every day you find a breakfast option that is both incredibly delicious and genuinely healthy. The bowl was a delightful mix of fresh ingredients, perfectly cooked quinoa, and just the right touch of seasoning to bring everything together. It was a hearty, energizing start to my day, without feeling too heavy. The ambiance at First Watch was warm and inviting, and the service was prompt and friendly, making my dining experience even more enjoyable. For anyone looking for a nutritious breakfast that doesn't compromise on flavor, the Quinoa Power Bowl at First Watch is a must-try. Can't wait to come back and explore more of their menu!

I really like the food here. The food is generally pretty good.Today service was so slow. Asked for things multiple times and nobody brings them. It seems like they have so many people working but they all want to avoid the customers.The guy clearing tables had headphones in and was slamming chairs in and throwing glasses and dishes into the bins with zero regard for others.We left to pay at the counter and nobody showed up there. So we had to pay online via a QR code which is mildly annoying
How delicious.We went here with not much time, only had about 45 minutes to spare in our busy day schedule.The seating was prompt, server was prompt, we ordered our meal with the drinks and everything came out so quickly. They were a perfect location to not have much time but want to enjoy a dine in instead of fast food.One thing I regret is not taking photos of the DELICIOUS and beautiful plates.I was very impressed. Also the technology was five star. We had our bill paid with our phones before we even stood up.

FW is quickly becoming my favorite chain restaurant. Ate at the Grand Junction location 2/24/24 and could not have had a better experience. The menu selections are hard to choose from with many tempting options. I had the Avacado Toast with basted cage-free eggs. My wife got the French Toast. There was enough for us to share and leave with amply full stomachs. And the coffee is excellent!! Best of all, the service was amazing. Stella cheerfully greeted us at the door and also became our server. She was the friendliest, happiest, and most efficient server we’ve had for quite some time. She made a good experience even better and should be commended. We are looking forward to our next visit to FW at another location as we travel our way across the country.
