First Watch, the Florida-based Daytime Dining restaurant serving breakfast, brunch and lunch, will open a new restaurant in Waterside on Monday, March 25, the first of two slated for this year. The restaurant at 5924 Convair Drive will bring a chef-inspired menu and rotating seasonal offerings to a 3,700-square-foot space that seats more than 160 people, offers outdoor dining under a covered patio, and serves juices and cocktails at a dedicated bar.
By the end of 2024, First Watch anticipates opening the doors to another restaurant in the greater Dallas-Fort Worth region – its first in the suburb of Addison – at 5353 Belt Line Road.
“Being in a region known for its vibrant food scene, First Watch is committed to finding new ways to inspire even more good mornings – and that’s what our newest restaurant in Waterside is all about,” said Brandon Heinsohn, Vice President of Operations at First Watch in a statement. “Minutes from Trinity River, our Waterside location will be a gathering place for the whole neighborhood – whether you choose to join us at the crack of dawn or not, we’ve got you covered for your next brunch hangout.”
First Watch’s menu takes an elevated approach to traditional breakfast, brunch and lunch offerings that are made to order using fresh ingredients. Some fan favorites include Avocado Toast, Lemon Ricotta Pancakes and Million Dollar Bacon.
From the dedicated bar, the restaurant will serve an array of juices made with fresh ingredients like kale and Fuji apple, and brew its socially responsible Project Sunrise coffee, sourced by women coffee farmers based in South America. To celebrate the opening, customers who dine in at the new Waterside restaurant Monday, March 25-Friday, March 29 will receive a free cup of Project Sunrise coffee with their meal.
Five times a year, First Watch offers a revolving seasonal menu that follows the position of the sun to source quality ingredients. This ever-evolving menu has featured specialties like the Barbacoa Quesadilla Benedict, Elote Mexican Street Corn Hash and Watermelon Wake-Up fresh juice, among others. The Waterside restaurant will offer its first seasonal menu in Summer 2024.
Combined, these two new restaurants will employ approximately 60 people while operating on a one-shift a day, “No Night Shifts Ever” approach that enables its teams to enjoy their evenings and build a better quality of life.
First Watch serves its entire menu seven days a week from 7 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. for pickup, delivery and dine-in service.
