UPDATED, Monday, March 19
A spokesman for First Watch contacted us today that the restaurant “is anticipated to open April 3.”
ORIGINAL STORY:
The opening of a new First Watch restaurant on Johnson Ferry Road still doesn’t have a specific date, but the company told us earlier this week it’s “approaching quickly for this Spring.”
The standalone building at 1080 Johnson Ferry Road in the Woodlawn Point Shopping Center is nearing completion, and as we went by earlier today there were only a few construction vehicles in the parking lot.
First Watch has set up a website for the East Cobb location and “VIP Access” in which you can sign up for e-mail updates, including a special pre-opening event, opening updates and other “perks.”
We signed up and there wasn’t anything specific about the opening. The message we got from First Watch earlier this week said only that “We always hope for the best and know our development team is knocking out that punch list to stay on schedule.”
It’s the same wording they used when we inquired in January; we’ve sent another message trying to get more details.
When it opens, what the company is calling its East Cobb location will be the second in the community (the other is at Sandy Plains Marketplace) and 10th in metro Atlanta.
A Facebook page for the Johnson Ferry Road location has been created, and like the other restaurants in the chain, hours will from 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. seven days a week.
