Probably the best breakfast I ever had! Everyone that know me well know how hard it is to impress me bc I like things done perfectly. Everything came out within mins of me ordering (I came on a weekday) No complaints! The hash browns were the best I ever had. Crunchy on the outside but soft in the middle but not too soft which I loved. The onions in them every made them more delicious. The cheese was all melted and warm on top. You can totally use good quality cheese. The eggs were perfectly scrambled and came out, warm as well. Pancakes just melts in your mouth! I want the recipe because I know I’m going to crave them every morning now. The parking is a little hard to find even on a weekday.

From my understanding all their omelettes are backed. The fresh vegetarian omelette is as big as your head so to speak. It appears that everything is served with a side of pancakes! The pancakes taste like grandma's recipe! The Veggie Omelette was amazing my wife and I split it. Walker Brothers featured coffee is a special blend of coffee roasted to their special specifications it is dark, rich and nutty. The interior is a wood workers dream with Dental molding, cove and cornice molding, panels and paneled archways! Setting all of the beautiful architecture off is this glint of Tiffany and art glass all around!

The best breakfast place in the Chicagoland area, and, dare I say, anywhere. Been going here since I was a kid and it is consistently good. Their pancakes are delicious - so buttery and with chocolate chips, addictive. Omelets are tasty and enormous (see picture). Service is just ok, but the food comes out quick and is so good that service taking somewhat of a backseat is no issue at all. Prices are reasonable, particularly given the large portions you receive. Overall, a must stop. Living in or visiting the Chicago area is not complete without eating a stack of pancakes from Walker Bros.

Good food, not what everyone raved about. The strawberry crepes were definitely on par and above something like a Denny's 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.
