Richard Walker's Pancake House — Restaurant in Schaumburg Township

Updated Review 8/31/2024 Richard Walker’s has been an old favorite for many over the last 2 decades. Through renovations, menu changes and management, the food is still created by the same cooks at the center of it all. The coffee, delicious omelette’s and fluffy pancakes are still served piping hot and delicious as ever. I love the Sante Fe omelette that comes with the fresh salsa and sour cream! Our server Val was exceptional checking on us many times and topping our coffee from a fresh hot pot! Real cream, butter and hot syrup always add value to make it an excellent breakfast here!! I can’t wait to get back and order the apple pancake and the seasonal pumpkin pancakes! Yumsville ~ —————————— Great standby place to go for the best breakfast in town. Consistent service and excellent food quality since we’ve been going over the last 10 years. Food is always hot and coffee always fresh. Real cream for your coffee not half/half. Omelettes have generous portions of veggies, cheeses and meats. The apple pancake is made with real butter and fresh apples. Perfect combinations and something for everyone! Food is never greasy and always tastes delicious. Well worth the wait at this specific location! Don’t settle for the rest, you pay the same and...

I had not had breakfast at one of my favorite restaurants~ Walkers. A few decades ago I lived in buffalo grove Illinois where there was one located & enjoyed every sunday going there with my ex husband for a delicious breakfast. I usually got the apple pancake and he got crepes. About 10 yrs ago I went to 1 located on roselle & golf, near the jewel. It was okay. I just had a basic breakfast.Didn't get the apple pancake that time.

My niece and her daughter picked me up to have breakfast with them and I chose...Walkers (by the Schaumburg library, as we had planned to go there next). I asked the waitress...what was the difference between this Location and the other one I saw on roselle; and she said that "the other one's ...owner changed & not one of the walker's brothers owned anymore". So I was very happy we chose where we were, as.I looked forward to having my usual apple pancake. I was NOT satisfied. It was very very syrupy sweet & the crust on the edges width hard & just didn't taste the same @ All!😥 I liked it in the past also, because I would take leftover home and munch on it as a room temp dessert or snack for the rest of day. So super SWEET ...NOT AS "Flourly" seems.

I was so...

This is the most unwelcoming breakfast place I’ve ever been to? I mean, smiling is not expensive nor hard or did they judge me based on my clothing. I wasn’t on a Sunday dress and was just wearing jeans and a long sleeve sports top. My server did not introduce himself but the guy who gives water was smiling a lot and seems to be happy to see people like me there. He is the reason for the 2-star service. My server was not paying attention to what I was saying as they were busy talking about someone at the other side of the room. I needed to repeat myself or I needed to send back a toast because he did not ask me what kind of toast or if there are even any kind of options for sides. My good was prepped hot. Not sure if my tomatoes were sun dried as they look fresh but I felt like it was the sloppiest egg white scramble I ever had. It was ‘watery’ and far from the photos I’ve seen from this place. I would admit that the scramble was well-seasoned. The corned beef hash on the side has a distinct taste (in a good way), I think it has some seasonings similar to a sausage. It was just a little too salty for my taste. Of course I tipped them still,just not sure if...
