I can say it’s an average pancake house since they’re located around the country, but compared to the one in Hawaii, this one seems better.It was clean and I liked all the stained windows and enclosed patio seating.The food was also pretty good.

Cozy dining area! I feel sweet items are more delicious in this restaurant. Beautiful staff and clean environment.

Ordered banana pancakes to find out they put an orange citrus syrup on top. It was good but not what I was expecting, they changed the order fast with no complications and returned with 5* banana pancakes. Good food and great service.

A favorite Chicagoland spot (spots) for breakfast or brunch. Seven locations, same menu, compatible decor. Never met a wait staff member at any of these locations without a cheery, compliant, helpful attitude. The food is top notch and plentiful.

Plain breakfast. Plain coffee. No actual server (which I thought was weird), but they had 4 different people serve us. It wasnt bad, but it wasnt great. Just fine.

Will find a new breakfast place....Party of 8: we waited over an hour to be seated. Once we entered the restaurant there were 3 tables that were clear and large enough for 8 people. The hostess came out 2 times asking can I talk to Michael, party of 8 to propose 2 separate tables. They were just trying to turn tables as much as possibile. With 4 elderly people sitting out in the waiting area, another solution should have been provided. Walker Bros. Has been crossed off my list.

Enormous menu, and huge portions! That said, this place could likely benefit from having a smaller menu...could move the needle on the food from good to great.

Good food, not what everyone raved about. The strawberry crepes were definitely on par and above something like a Dennys or Perkins, but for me it felt like something was missing from the dish. Some kind of sweet cream or custard to balance out the flavors. The orange suzette sauce was delicious though! The hash browns with habanero cheese was very good. Although, fairly inattentive staff in a fairly empty restaurant made it a little difficult to fully enjoy. Polite, but it was also very difficult to hear them from a foot away.

Wow! Visiting from out of state, tried first time (breakfast) for family, cause it looked nice inside online. Went back 2 more times! BEAUTIFUL atmosphere, attentive staff, and great food. A must to go at least once, if not more! 👍

Informed the server of my severe Tree nut and Peach allergies. So, he brought me the allergen menu. I ordered what was deemed safe for my allergies. When my meal arrived, it had granola on top with chopped pecans on it. Thank goodness I saw the nuts. Otherwise, it would have been a serious situation. I alerted the server, who switched my breakfast out for something different. I do not believe it was the servers fault. Clearly the allergen menu they provide is not accurate.

Breakfast is so good here. So glad its a chain. I have been to a couple different locations and the food is always good! The pancakes are delicious. The pancakes with cinnamon and apples were very good. Probably has 1000 or more calories, though. Who cares when you only get it like once a year. I enjoyed every bite! I will definitely be going back for some more goodness~~

Food is good. Does not cater to lactose and vegan customers (i.e. no almond milk or soy). Atmosphere is outdated.

Outstanding food. Great wait persons who work hard to earn their tips. Beautiful Oak wood & stained glass decor. There are 5 fantastic locations. Only 1 negative. Be prepared for a long wait to be seated, which is understandable. I seldom EVER give out 5 stars.

Located in Highland Park on Central Avenue a great place for breakfast or lunch. As the name implies, its all about pancakes. What is unusual are the stain glass windows. Very comfortable to have breakfast followed by a good cup of coffee. Bring a newspaper if you are dining alone. You may have to park block or more from the restaurant as parking on Central can be difficult if not impossible at certain times. ENJOY

I love Walker Bros! They have amazing potato pancakes and always make the food very fast. I go here, and there other locations, with my girlfriend all the time and we always really enjoy our food! Definitely recommend eating here, especially during non-breakfast hours to get your food extremely fast.

This place is fantastic. We are from North Carolina, but if or when we are ever back out there we look very forward to eating there again. Their apple cinnamon pancake is HUGE and absolutely delicious!! They seem to always be pretty crowded, but the lines see to move fairly fast. Our I would plan for a little extra time. Its well worth the wait!

While I do genuinely appreciate the menu now including calorie counts, it sure highlights how unhealthy the food is. It seems to me that they could reformulate some options to be a bit more healthy, eg a mushroom omelette doesn’t need to be 1100 calories. Good service and variety.

Tasty breakfast all day kind of place. I am a fool for buckwheat pancakes and these were terrific. Our group had omelettes, crepes, waffles, and french toast all of which were consumed with gusto. I appreciate the calorie information being on the menu, it definitely influenced our choices.

I love this place 💖! Their food is delicious, my favorite is their crispy crunchy French Toast, omg 😩. Its to die for, I mean its that good 💛💛💛💛💛💛. The staff make you feel at home, and welcomed. The atmosphere is very relaxing. Theyre reasonably priced, and you get a lot for your money. Your time will not be wasted going to Walker Bros. The restaurant is so worth it 💖.

Probably the best pancake house in the North Shore. The food is great, and their apple cinnamon pancake and German pancakes cant be beat. While those two dishes may take longer, they are worth the wait. This place gets very busy during the rush breakfast times, but they generally move things pretty quickly, so its usually not terrible. The service is always very attentive, and the prices are reasonable.

Review №94

Very good food, and not just for breakfast. They have great salads and sandwiches too. They have been around for a long time. The first one was in Wilmette. Now they have quite a few restaurants in Northern Illinois. Grat service. They are very busy for breakfast and especially on the weekends. If you want a great meal that will keep you going most of the day, try it. Especially the omelettes!

I order the Venetian Benedict. I enjoy the Venetian Benedict. Delicious. Here’s my issue. Honeydew. I decide to get the fruit cup with my meal. Big mistake. I should’ve gotten the pancakes. They gave me so much honeydew. I felt like a Amelia Earhart because I was drowning in so much Honeydew. Never again. Overall: 5/5, support your local businesses.

This was my first visit to the Highland Park location as I usually frequent the one in Glenview. Had my usual order of the Venetian Benedict with potato pancakes. The food came out very fast, piping hot and fresh. Good, strong coffee rounded out my breakfast. Ill be back whenever Im in the area and in the mood for a proper hearty breakfast.

Review №98

Food was decent, waiter was subpar and bill was expensive.. We had to retrieve our own silverware when the food came and we never received more syrup or refills because our waiter was no where to be found. The kids plates and drinks seemed to be for a toddler. Omelette was very plain and oven baked. I dont know if thats standard but I prefer a regular pan cooked omelette. The apple cinnamon pancake is the only good thing I can say about this place.

Br
Review №99

These are my favorite pancakes on the planet. I got the oven baked Denver omlette. On a weekday the place wasnt very crowded and the staff was friendly and helpful. Coffee is really good too! Another favorite is the Dutch baby and German pancake that is light flaky and amazing. Order that early as it takes longer than other items on the menu.
