BRADENTON, Fla., Nov. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A little kindness goes a long way, and First Watch Restaurant Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: FWRG) (together with its subsidiaries “First Watch” or the “Company”) – the leading daytime dining concept specializing in breakfast, brunch and lunch – is spreading the joy this year for World Kindness Day. On Wednesday, November 13, First Watch is giving away more than 15,000 cinnamon rolls for customers to “pay forward” as a random act of kindness in their communities. The first 50 dine-in guests at each participating location will receive a free Stay Golden Cinnamon Roll* packaged to-go when they use the word “kindness.”

“World Kindness Day is a reminder of the impact even the smallest gestures can have,” said Matt Eisenacher, Chief Brand Officer. “From holding the door open … to welcoming tables with a warm pot of coffee, our employees take pride in making our customers smile. Our core value is to ‘Be Kind,’ and we hope this day will inspire thousands of acts of kindness nationwide.”

The cinnamon roll, which appears on First Watch’s seasonal Holiday menu for a limited time, is freshly baked, glazed with lemon cream cheese icing and topped with gold sprinkles. Inspired by “The Golden Rule” – treat others as you would want to be treated – First Watch is encouraging customers to perform acts of kindness by sharing the free Stay Golden Cinnamon Roll with anyone in need of a smile.

*One Stay Golden Cinnamon Roll per table, with an in-restaurant purchase, while supplies last at participating restaurants only. For more information, including participating restaurants, visit www.firstwatch.com/kindness-day.
