For every kid's meal served, First Watch proudly donates a portion to organizations and causes making a positive impact to our communities raising approximately $2.0 million to date. A recipient of many "Best Breakfast" and "Best Brunch" awards, First Watch was voted #1 Best Breakfast by Newsweek's Readers' Choice Awards 2025, and also named 2025 and 2024's #1 Most Loved Workplace in America by the Best Practice Institute an accolade most recently featured in The Wall Street Journal after appearing on the list in 2022 and 2023, as well.
