First Watch

I’ve dined at First Watch several times in other states but this location opened near me about two months ago. It’s surrounded by great brunch places in Boston but still attracted a crowd-40 min wait. I was lucky to snag a seat at the back counter. Tip: you can ‘join the wait’ remotely from their website. Who knew that turkey sausage gravy and a biscuit could be just as tasty as pork sausage? Also had a fresh fruit cup that was delish. And check out this lavender lemonade cocktail. Ordered ham and Gruyère sandwich to go- comes with a bowl of soup or side salad. I chose the tomato basil soup. It was fantastic on this snowy day. My two servers were pleasant and efficient- they made excellent recommendations to me and other diners. Everyone sitting at the back counter was friendly and chatty.

We came here from Sacramento, CA - exploring and found this gem. They welcome you with a smile and hospitality. The food, juice waters and service are great. Advise - call in advance and avoid the wait but the wait was not bad approx 20 min, we strolled around outside until they messaged us to let us know table was ready. Definitely will come back when in Boston or if they setup the same restaurant in northern CA - specifically - Sacramento, CA

Hello but sorry to say that this visit wasn't good at all my omelet was over powered with egg and no real meat in it to substitute also my grits where a little lumpy. I have been to many First wat h location and was far better than this honestly. I also asked for no ham and they still put ham in the omlette, just disappointed as a whole. I expect better from first watch your whole experience is breakfast and that should be stellar.

This is the type of place I’m happy to see in the area. Great classic menu items but also options if you want something new. I got the Tri-Fecta with a banana granola almond crunch pancake and chicken apple sausage. Loved how they gave me the entire pot of coffee! It’s hard to come by bottomless these days. The staff was so friendly, shout out to my server, Nina! I will definitely be back.

First watch is a great place for breakfast, brunch, lunch!!! The staff is so friendly, the service is amazing and of course the food is delicious. I will definitely be back and recommend to family and friends!!!
