First Watch

The parking is a headache! Make a reservation if doing on the weekend it gets very busy. And get early so you find parking ,I was circling the place to find a spot. I had to park down the road and walk to the place. Food was delicious. I got the lunch sandwich and salad. The Monterey Club and chicken avocado chop salad. It was all fresh and pretty. I also got to try the Morning Meditation Juice it was refreshing and delicious. The Seasoned potatoes were crispy and were cooked to perfection.

I’ve always been a fan of First Watch, but after my experience today at the First Watch - Buford location, I won’t be returning. I ordered the Market Veggie and was genuinely looking forward to it. Unfortunately, it was a MAJOR disappointment. Before I even took a bite, the sandwich looked like two pieces of bread stacked together with barely any filling in between. It appeared poorly assembled and rushed — not something I’d expect from First Watch. The onions were NOT sautéed as described; they tasted almost raw! 😣 The ingredients weren’t balanced, and the sandwich lacked the wholesome quality I’m used to. The tomato bisque was also overwhelming, with large floating pieces of basil that overpowered the flavor. I ended up throwing the entire meal away, which was frustrating and disappoi

Came in hungry, left happy and slightly more social than I expected. This spot knows how to serve up a solid breakfast. The potatoes were packed with flavor, the eggs were cooked just right (not too runny, not too rubbery, Grandma would approve), and even the toast and butter had me nodding in appreciation.

They’ll seat you with other folks if it’s crowded, and it’s actually kind of refreshing. I ended up chatting with a retired teacher and a guy who flips motorcycles. We broke bread..literally and swapped stories. Parking, though... that’s the real adventure. It’s tight, and whatever you do, don’t park in the neighboring business spots unless you want your ca

First time at this location. Ordered buttered grits, waffle and bacon. The grits had so much butter in it I couldn’t even eat it all. The white guy with glasses that greeted me and gave me my pick up order was so nice tho! Great service

Not my first time visiting First Watch, but definitely the best visit yet. I visited with my family, and we were a large party. Our server Samuel was AMAZING. He was patient and kind with all of us, he did a great job and we were all very happy with service and food. Would definitely love to go back.
