A new restaurant will open inside of a building that has sat vacant for years in Woodbridge.
The new eatery promises to bring a fresh take on brunch when it opens later this year in the space that once served as an Uno pizzeria and a Bonefish Grill.
First Watch Cafe will open its ninth restaurant in Washington, D.C., at 2680 Prince William Parkway in Woodbridge. The eatery will occupy 6,500 square feet of space.
Customers can order the cafe’s take on traditional breakfast, brunch, and lunch offerings made to order using farm-fresh ingredients. The restaurant will also offer a revolving seasonal menu.
“For nearly four decades, First Watch has been serving crave-able classics, and seasonal specialties always made to order with quality ingredients that follow the sun. As our ninth restaurant in the greater Washington D.C. area, this location will level up that unique brunch experience with a bar and dedicated to-go entrance, which will give our customers a wide range of options to enjoy their meals as much as their moments made,” said First Watch VP of Operations Robert Glen.
First Watch also serves an array of fresh juices and Project Sunrise coffee, which supports independent groups of female farmers in Colombia. Finally, the new restaurant will feature First Watch’s expanding alcoholic beverage program, which allows guests to enjoy cocktails featuring its juices like the Vodka Kale Tonic (gluten-free vodka, freshly juiced kale, Fuji apple, English cucumber, and lemon) and signature creations such as the Cinnamon Toast Cereal Milk (coconut rum, cold brew coffee, coconut milk, and agave nectar).
The new eatery will be open in late September and will employ 30 people.
