It is a wonderful restaurant to have gf breakfast. I have celiac and have never had a problem. They have a great friendly staff. Nice when the weather is nice and you can eat outside

Group of 5 we were seated in a booth by the bar which was pretty cramped for us. It wasn't super busy, so not really sure why we were seated there except perhaps for convenience for our server? That being said service was kind of lagging. When we needed drink refills we ended up standing up and going to the bar more than once to ask for them as we weren't checked in on after our food was served.The food was good, but also the lunch menu was a little more limited than we were expecting, so next time we'll go back when they are still serving breakfast options as well. We tried their basic burger, the bounty salad, chicken fingers basket, reuben, and BLT. The chicken fingers were the best item, but that is not to say the other food wasn't good, just that the freshly friend chicken kind of stole the show hahaWe'd definitely give it another try next time we are in town as it's a super convenient location when staying in Corolla, but would hope for a little better of a dining experience to go along with the food.

Came here on a Sunday because we were all craving bloody marys, and First Light did not disappoint. We snagged seats at the bar which was surprisingly empty and ordered a round. Half of us opted for the Zinger bloody mary which is their signature drink, while the other half got brave and decided to try the Chesapeake bloody mary made with Absolut Pepper that had more of a kick. Everyone was happy with their selection, and I appreciated having a variety of bloody mary options to choose from.Ambiance wise this place is giving elevated dive bar but in an approachable way. Our bartender was extremely friendly, by the end of the visit we knew his entire life story as well as his travel plans for the next year. Our bloody marys were fairly priced and we had a great time (but that's more about the good company and less about First Light). Overall, if you're craving bloody marys this is a solid option in the area.

I had the Corolla's hangover breakfast and it was very filling. I've been to a couple brunch spots and this one was pretty good. However, specifically for this dish, with the home fry pieces being too big, I felt that it was a bit too much. I could have easily shared this dish with another friend. The outside seating was nice and the weather was great near the beach. Also, note there is a $5 credit card fee.

TLDR: diner breakfast, nothing to write home about. The restaurant itself is ok. It does need a good deep clean. Even just some dusting and wipe down would go a long way. It is the beach and the end of busy season, so hoping that deep clean is coming. It's a small place with tables inside and outside. They were busy on Wednesday morning around 1030. Service was friendly. Seated quickly and a nice server. The people next to us were unhappy with their food and the manager came over to check and try to make it right. Everyone working there kept a good attitude through dealing with a difficult customer. Food came out very quickly and was hot! I ordered my eggs over medium and they were great!! The potatoes were pretty good and the biscuit was fine. My friend seemed to enjoy her biscuits and gravy just fine. The coffee, while very hot, was very watered down and didn't hit the spot for me. Decent cost compared to other places for what we got. Overall, it's a beach diner. Go in with low expectations and you will be pleased. Go in expecting greatness and you will be disappointed.

10/10!! Came with a largish group (7) for an early morning breakfast. We decided to eat outside and enjoy the fresh air. Service was fantastic and our server was so kind and enjoyable to be around. I ordered the Crab Benny and I cannot recommend this enough. The crab cakes were absolutely delicious and the ratio was just perfect. 2 others in my group also got the Crab Benny and it was a hit all around. Others in my group enjoyed the sausage gravy and biscuits and the Big Meaty. Overall a really great breakfast experience with amazing food and service.

Basically a small diner kinda place, at least that's the breakfast vibe. Service seems to be a little sub par but the food is good. The breakfast potatoes were delish but they do get extra greasy if you get them as take out. Convenient little spot for a decent breakfast and it's nice that there's a takeout option as well. I enjoyed my breakfast at home a lot more though but that was because of the comfier seating and the view.

First Light is an Full bar restaurant that serves American fare food located in the Timbuck II Shopping Village. Being the off-season, we were sat and served right away. Our server was awesome and took great care of us. Food was pretty good and drinks were great! Plenty of TVs for sports and western movies as well. Great place to grab some food and drinks for a game or a quick bite to eat.

The food was good , they were out of some things because it was off season. Like olives for a dirty martini , or margarita mix .It was extremely cold in there , everyone seated had on coats and hats , it was so cold . The Bluetooth speaker kept going in and out and there was a patron who kid was running around . I had the crab Benny , two poached eggs over crab cakes over English muffin . Home fries and a delicious mimosa . My wife had a egg white veggie omelette , home fries and a side of bacon . For her drink she had a custom made Bloddy Mary that was out of this world .
