First Watch — Restaurant in The Villages

First Watch serves breakfast, brunch & lunch. They are a farm fresh restaurant and their menu reflects that. It is a clean, modern open space but with a farm accent interior. The food is what it says Farm Fresh. You will not find processed foods here. - I ordered tea and my husband ordered coffee. You get a carafe of coffee and a carafe of hot water and your choice of teas and you also get a old milk style bottle of water for the table. The food - I ordered the eggs benedict florentine and it came with a side of home fries. Everything fresh here. It came with tomato spinach avocado and poached egg on a ciabatta roll. The tomato was vine ripe. The poached egg was a bit underdone healthwise. Although the yolk should be runny the white was not done well enough. The Hollandaise sauce was not a traditional quick sauce. More of a hollandaise light. But the Benedict was still good all in all. My husband got the roast beef with harvati cheese. The sandwich came with roast beef, fresh herbs, havarti cheese and roasted red peppers all on toasted white bread with cheese toasted on the outside. It came with a side of horseradish mayonnaise sauce. It came with a side of Italian wedding soup which was very good. This was our first time here in the staff was very pleasant and helpful with the menu and suggestions. The restaurant itself was clean inviting. The restaurant is handicap accessible parking Atkinson restaurants. They also have high chairs for children. All in all a pleasant...

2nd UPDATE.....never received anything from them. Waste of time as they do not care obviously.

UPDATE... i have been contacted by their corporate office. I explained what had happened and was rest assured that this will not be tolerated nor accepted. I will try First Watch again, however it will not be this location. Will give an update whenever that will be?

Original post: If i could give it 0, I would. I took my husband and my mom here for lunch today. As my mother is blind and in end stage kidney failure, I was reading her the menu, when a waitress brought us a bottle of water and proceeded to inform my mother that she can have anything she wanted!! My husband asked her why would you say that to her, do you know her dietary needs? The waitress answered, no I do not and I don't have to serve you either so leave. We walked out!! Very unprofessional. This was my 2nd time here. I will not be back. Horrible, horrible, horrible. I did not know servers here were doctors and experts on dialysis and kidney failure. Wonder if moms insurance would cover since the waitress obviously has a...

Five stars for the menu and taste of the food... only 2 stars for the service!

The menu was great, not your typical breakfast menu but some healthier choices. No home fries, yes, salad! Or you could have roasted potatoes. The bread was fantastic-they sell it, so we even brought a loaf home. Loved what I ordered (protein pancakes)!! BUT the downside was that our food took too long; people that came in after us got theirs while we waited. When they arrived, both of our meals were lukewarm, mine bordering on cool. I blame this on the waitress letting it sit and not picking it up when it was ready, but I never told her that. She looked at me like I was crazy and told me that they take it and serve it right away. She was a little defensive when I told her they were barely warm, as if I was wrong. My husband had the breakfast skillet, which once again was delicious, but that should have been steaming, not barely warm. They were very busy AND learning a new computer payment program. I’d definitely go back again, but NOT on a Sunday, and NOT at 10AM. The open early, so it should be...
