First Watch

I went to the First Watch Shawnee location because it was closest to my job. I spent over $34. The meal should have been served hot but wasn't. I ordered a blueberry pancake which the waitress brought out because she didn't want it to be served cold. It was hot and tasty. The other item I ordered was the Proscuitto Toast and it was brought out after a 15-minute wait and was lukewarm almost cold. The waitress stated the kitchen couldn't find the cheese grater. Ugg... Should that have been my problem? I think not. I waited another 15 minutes and had to get up and ask for a to-go box. The waitress rolled her eyes. I've been to the Shawnee location twice and will never go there again.I love First Watch and have received exceptional customer service and delicious hot food at every other location.

Food was delicious but what really stood out this visit was the service. Our server built rapport with us immediately and was kind, funny, engaging, and professional without being too over the top. She was born for her job! Hostesses were friendly as well. Blueberry pancakes were on point and eggs were cooked perfectly.

First Watch is not always my go to spot if I am craving brunch. But if I am near one, then I will stop in because I know the food is consistent. But that is not the case at this location. And I am very disappointed. Kale Tonic is a must for me. And the one at this location tastes just as great as all the ones I've been to. For the main dish, I ordered Parma with sunny side up eggs. The eggs were cooked perfectly to my request. However, the entire dish was extremely salty. I almost wanted to return the item back to the kitchen but we couldn't find our server. And they were extremely busy so we didn't want to wave anyone down and be a bothersome. The server came by to ask for our order over 3 times within 20 minutes. Not sure why the rush. My boyfriend's first visit so he had to read each item on the menu. As soon as the food came out, we never saw her again. The restroom is extremely dirty and outdated. Based on the experience I had at this location, I am not sure I will return.

We love first watch. Always delish and good quality very consistent too. Avocado toast, chocolate chip pancakes!

First Watch is a very consistent restaurant. I love the fact that you can check-in online, it makes getting a table when you walk in easier. Of course the food and drinks are the star of the show. I love the lavender lemonade and I see it has made its way into the menu permanently and I will probably be a fan forever! Lavender is known for its ability to calm the nervous system, lift the mood and even lower blood pressure. No other place is doing this!!!My go-to meal is the chickichanga that comes with potatoes and seasonal fruit, it's only right to get a side of butter grits on the side so I can add some sugar to have them sweet. My partners go to meal is the salmon frittata that comes with a lemon dressed mixed green salad, but got it as an omelette instead. Although, today I think I became a fan of something I MUST try during the fall. The Ham & Gruyère melt which can come with a salad or soup, but I will most likely need to pair it with the tomato basil! I love coming here and have brought everyone from my daughter to my best friends because it's truly perfect for any occasion when you want something fresh and filling!

First Watch is a predictably good experience. You know there will likely be a wait on weekends, and you know the food will satisfy that breakfast grub cravingThis place is busy, seems there's always a very short wait 10mins max or so due to quick turnover, it's also a bit of noisier spot with a fairly loud dining area. They have a small patio but it unfortunately doesn't have much of a view besides Shawnee Mission Parkway.However the food is really the selling point and the drink concoctions are always interesting and refreshing, ala Morning Meditation and The Green Machine. Their breakfast foods are reliably good, the skillet hashes and breakfast tacos are my jam and can't recommend them enough.

Service is always great here. Very friendly staff. Food always comes out quickly and they have many healthy options. Sometimes there may be a wait on their busy days but I think it's worth it. Cute farm to table type ambiance. I frequent this restaurant and have never had a bad experience.

I LOVED THIS PLACE. I just had it today for the first time and on our stay in Kansas we came here. Highly recommend. I got the eggs Benedict ( BLT ). All the food we got was amazingly delicious. The service was fast and courteous. The vibe was so chill and felt old school. I love it! The portions are big! Which I loved. For 6 people I paid $149 with tax and tip included. Meals vary prices but they are from ($12 - $17). Very reasonable.

OMG the farmhouse breakfast skillet is SOOOOO GOOOD if you come here you guys HAVE to try this dish. Also, the blackberry tea is just LEGENDARY. Very nice! The service is always good as well! farmhouse breakfast skilletfarmhouse breakfast skilletfarmhouse breakfast skilletfarmhouse breakfast skilleti suggest sunny side up eggs

Such a letdown. My husband and I went out to have brunch as we are soon expecting our first born. We went and 5 minutes after we set down the waitress wanted to get our drink, apps, and food order. We ordered two apps to enjoy and I asked for a purple haze drink and our meals. Well 15 minutes later I was still looking around to catch someone's attention to get a water at least. A few minutes later 1 app came out, still no drinks. 4 minutes after that our meals and the other app came out. There was not enough space on our tiny table and I reminded the waitress I still needed the drinks. We also were upset every food item came out before we even had the drinks. To go out and spend money to be so rushed was a letdown. The waitress left and I didn't have syrup for the waffle. It was such a mess. I love first watch, but today may have ruined it. We definetly would not suggest this location.
