Review by Mercedes McLaughlin

First Watch is a cozy brunch spot that never disappoints! ☀️ I tried their delicious Avocado Toast and my partner opted for the Pancake Breakfast. Both dishes were fresh and flavorful, though I wish the portion sizes were a bit larger.

Our server, Sandra, was fantastic - she made sure we felt at home. The outdoor seating is a lovely touch for a sunny day!

Overall, it’s a great value for a wholesome meal. I can't wait to return and explore more of their healthy options! 🍳🥑
