The first will be in Clermont at the Town Center at Cagan Crossings lifestyle plaza at 501 U.S. Highway 27. At 3,781 square feet, it will be a thousand square feet smaller than other recently opened First Watch cafes in the Orlando area. The first-generation building will have 139 seats inside and 50 outside. Outdoor seating areas at First Watch are dog friendly.

Cagan Crossings — an established community launched in 1998 by Cagan Management Group — comes with a built-in customer base, with five apartment complexes adjacent to the shopping area. The plaza has nine restaurants, a Lake-Sumter State College outpost, salons, a dental office and other service and retail businesses. Construction crews have already broken ground on the First Watch project, according to a representative at Cagan Crossings.
