Located at the end of a small strip shopping center is this restaurant. Seating is both indoor and outdoor. Great menu selection and a wide choice of beverages. Local newspapers are there to review and yes they have wifi. Wait staff is efficient and will respond to your requests. I ordered the Cranberry Nut Oatmeal and it came with English Muffin and strawberry spread. The oatmeal had pecans dried cranberries and fresh bananas. Right portion size and temperature as well.

I heard a lot about this place and was anxious to try it. This place really isn’t for me. I guess I was looking for classic breakfast and comfort goods but this had too many twists on the traditionals for me. The place was clean and the management were very friendly. Probably won’t bother to return though.

Very slow. Told 20 min wait. 40 min later still no table and told 2 more in front of me. UNACCEPTABLE. I would not have stayed if I had known this up front. Manager didn’t seem to care. Well your food is not worth a 40 min wait, 20 yes, 40 no. I would have gone somewhere else had they been up front. Were doing this to everyone.

I have to say I was a little disappointed with this place. It wasn’t terrible by any means but there was reason to love it either. I will say the server was great and even though she was a little overwhelmed she still managed to be very friendly. I tried several types of the eggs benedict and was just left underwhelmed. The eggs were overcooked and the hollandaise sauce was very bland. I think if I go back I would get the French toast or pumpkin pancakes. Both of which looked way better than what I had. The atmosphere was pleasant and if I was already in Turkey creek Hell I might stop again.

Love First Watch and this franchise is no exception. Fast service, good food. Really love the omelets and they are gluten free! Hubby gets the gigantic pancakes. He can get them custom made with nuts and dried cranberries. Be forewarned, they are really HUGE. Always very busy on weekends and lesser holidays, so get there early to avoid a wait. But really, it’s worth the wait.

That’s actually good to know. We had stopped going after the first few visits but sounds like you are taking steps towards where I would like to eat. I want healthier than most I realize. ;)

First time here! The place is very nice and has a cafeteria fast dinning look to it. They have a very nice patio that I will be trying out next! The menu has good lower calorie heathy choices. I had coffee which was nice and fresh, egg white omelet with spinach, feta and turkey, tasty. One multi grain pancake with blue berries, the blue berries I did not like they whew too saggy, but the pancake itself was nice tasting. Then I had a kale Juice with other fruits, I think it was 3.99 which seem like a good prices but when it arrived it was about a 10oz glass filled with iced so not much juice. The juice was good. My brother had a turkey sandwich and a chocolate chip multi grain pancakes and that was much better. Overall the services was fast and friendly, nothing special but effective.

My mom was a big fan of a First Watch location in St. Louis, so visiting a local one was a must. We visited on a Sunday, at about 11:30am. There was a 10 – 15 minute wait to get in the door, and unfortunately due to all of the busyness there was also a very long wait for our food to arrive.(Over 20 minutes between placing an order and receiving our food) But, when it did finally arrive, the dishes we ordered were tasty and cooked to perfection. I ordered their Breakfast Tacos, which were perfectly seasoned and absolutely scrumptious; my mother ordered one of their omelets and was equally impressed. A lot of omelets in restaurants are dry or overcooked, but this one was really great. The fruit cup she ordered was minuscule, though, and for $ 4 felt like a bit of a ripoff. I wasn’t as impressed with their freshly juiced Pineapple Cooler – to me, it was a little too much orange juice and I couldn’t taste the other juices very well.(However, I think this is due to personal taste and not due to quality.) I was also disappointed that the Cooler arrived after my food did, and not before. We also ordered a pot of their coffee, and it was *excellent*. Smooth and not bitter at all, even though it was a dark roast. They also had a very nice selection of creamers and even organic sugar available for sweetener. Someone on here also said their water tastes foul? I don’t know what was up with that review but their water is fine. It tastes like water, and they give you your own bottle so you pretty much never run out, which is fantastic in my opinion. Overall, I recommend this location and I will be going back soon!

I love this place!!! I’ve had the hash bowls, the omeletts, the granola and fruit, the yogurts, and for lunch– the chicken quinoa pesto bowl and the ½ salad ½ sandwich combo!(Working my way through the menu haha) I’ve got to say, my favorite dish is the Acapulco Express. Great selection of food with healthy options and very nice servers :) definitely love catching up with my friends here after morning runs or brunch-y meetings.

Great brunch place! Menu has a wide selection of sweet & savory selections. Healthy options are available. Service was great! My entrée could have been a little hotter when served. Overall great dining experience! Friendly manager and staff…

Not the place to go if you are looking for standard breakfast fare… lots of interesting items on the menu. I had pancakes that were good. Hubby had an egg breakfast plate of some sort, I don’t remember the exact items on his combo. The service the day we were there was not great, but I did point it out to the manager and she was receptive to my comments. I think this would be a fun place to go for a Girls Day out or brunch with friends. Probably wouldn’t take out of town visitors there for breakfast, but we may try it for lunch someday.

The prices are reasonable, service was good and the food was absolutely delicious. I suggest the sourdough French toast with kiwi and bananas.

Weird name and looks like a bank, but for the price, untouchable for breakfast/brunch. Bacon/Onion hash was out of control. Highly recommended.

First Watch is an aptly named café that serves breakfast and lunch only. Normally, this is a mistake for the Knoxville market, but they seem to have nailed it so well that it’s working out for them. As I walked in, my first impression is that the place has a welcoming warmth that immediately put me in a good mood for a delicious breakfast. The atmosphere is open and friendly and the staff is cheerful and attentive without being invasive. The décor is what I would call«modern country kitchen». The menu has many choices ranging from eggs(many ways), pancakes, Belgium waffles, and several sandwich choices. For the first-timer, the menu has highlighted best-sellers to guide you to «national favorites». I opted for the Bacado omelette and boy, that was a good choice! The presentation was neat with the plate filled edge to edge. The omelette was PERFECTLY prepared and fully and properly stuffed from edge to edge with avocado, bacon, jack cheese, and served with a side of their homemade salsa which was fresh and mild; a perfect accouterment. The muffin was nicely toasted and the potatoes were tasty and well cooked, but I like them a little crispier, so if that’s your thing, you may want to ask for them to cook them a little more. They also included a bit of strawberry jam(my favorite). The meal was delicious and filling, in fact, I couldn’t finish. So you can expect to be satisfied if you have a good appetite. One of the stars of the meal was the coffee. It’s a dark roast but doesn’t taste burnt at all. It’s definitely going to get you going. They have half and half, French vanilla, and hazelnut on the tables along with raw sugar. The food deserved nearly 5 stars but I still held back a star because I don’t like the only open for breakfast business model. Breakfast for dinner is a thing in Knoxville and they would do well to capitalize on that and provide their delicious food to the night crowd. As it stands now though, I will definitely be back, with my family, and can recommend this place to anyone that wants a quality meal at a similar price to the national chain breakfast places.

Upon walking in, we were greeted in a very professional manner by a real nice gentleman. we was seated right away and the waitress was right there as we were seated… We was very impressed with the outside patio options and the establishments décor, really nice soothing music, perfect level, not to low or to loud. Their water comes to the table in a carafe glass bottle, their water has a foul taste to it. Looking over the menu, they have lots of healthy and yummy options… I ordered the eggs benedict/ham hold the tomato… comes with seasoned potatoes and fresh fruit… This is our first time visiting a «First Watch» the eggs came to me very lightly cooked. I like my eggs done medium not over very easy. They took it back. to remake it. Next time I will specify that the eggs to please be more on the medium side. They Looked delicious… Came out rather quickly! But again very soft eggs, very very undercooked runny eggs. If you dont like very runny eggs, specify. The potatoes came back to me burnt when they brought out my «new» order of eggs benedict which the eggs were alittle better. The potatoes on round 2 were good. The fruit was the best part of this meal. very fresh and tasted really good. I think I’ll try the pancakes when I come back. Im alittle disappointed in such high ratings and get undercooked eggs and burnt potatoes. I noticed a sign up front as we were leaving saying they needed cooks and servers. I think I know why. The server was awesome. She did a great job. So, to be fair… I gave 3 stars for service, the attempt to get it right the second time and the fruit. Will update this review when we decide to come back to this establishment. I will give them another chance.

These folks have it going on. What a great way to eat a little healthier. They have several of these locations throughout the U.S. And I make them my first choice for breakfast. These folks are trained well and consistently deliver great service. The ingredients are fresh and portions are plentiful. You won’t be disappointed.

I was invited to meet another realtor for lunch in Turkey Creek and she suggested this place. I always thought it was a security firm or a place for bird watchers to buy things — but it’s a restaurant! One I hadn’t tried, so that always gets me going. You walk in and everything is neat and very clean. Each table has two coffee mugs just waiting for you and a basket of assorted flavored creamers! I’m pretty much a coffee addict, so I was already excited!!! Service was slow. Coffee was hot and really good!!! Once the server showed up, I asked her what her favorite thing on the menu and I ordered that. A bacon crumbled, Avacado filled, egg omlet. It came quickly, and filled the whole plate!!! It was thick and perfectly cooked, came with salsa and a sliced English muffin. My colleague ordered the French toast. I ate a slice of that myself. Fluffy. Yummy. The blackberry syrup was a little bitter and her bacon was undercooked, but all in all a very good meal. I’ll be going back!

I absolutely love this place and wish they had one closer to my home. I’ve been to a First Watch in Wisconsin and had a great experience so when I saw on Unilocal that they had one in Knoxville — it made my day! We had a breakfast meeting during my business trip to the area and First Watch was a perfect spot to spread out and work while having some delicious breakfast and coffee. The service was friendly and attentive too and the dining room is bright and cheerful. I really enjoy their omelettes and the fresh meusli with berries and other goodies is always a great choice.
