First Watch

Excellent experience. The manager, Paul, came to our table to discuss the menu and options for our GF/DF/SF kids. He helped us select items and turned the order in himself to make sure the kitchen took the necessary precautions. And good food!

The waitress brought us an allergen list and was knowledgeable about food allergies. The kitchen changed gloves prior to making my daughter’s meal and it was brought out separately. She ordered pretty basic with egg whites, bacon, orange juice, and a fruit bowl but it was still nice for my celiac daughter to be able to eat breakfast out without risk of being sick. No illness after eating their food. Would definitely eat there again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

First watch has been beyond accommodating and takes all dietary restrictions seriously. I have eaten here three times and have not gotten sick. Each and every time I have eaten here it has been a great experience. They do not have a gluten free menu but they are very happy to explain what can and cannot be done. Additionally, they not only ensured my food was gluten free but dairy free as well. The manager, Robert came to my table and personally took my order this last time but was always involved in my food preparation(every visit). Great Job to the team at First Watch ! Thank you very much for taking my condition seriously!

I have been twice and both times my meal came out with toast on my plate even though I clearly said I had a gluten allergy and to not give me any bread. I would t order the Udi’s either bc they use the same toaster. Both times they apologized and remade the food and I did not get sick either time. The food was good. I just do not have any confidence in their ability to handle allergy/celiac or high sensitivity.

The food was delicious and my order came out marked gluten free. My one complaint is that the regular menu does not list which items are gluten free, so I had to look at their online menu instead. The online menu is very detailed though and lists ALL allergen information. I looked it up ahead of time so I was ready to order when I was there.
