Any food chain especially known for breakfast that has the "original pancake house" in the title is worth a try. This place is not bad. I enjoy the omelets and the crepes...really good!... (more)

This place is Terrible with a capital T. I do not understand what all the fuss is about! You could get a breakfast of equal or better quality at Denny's, for a lot less money and a lot less time spent standing in line. I have... (more)

But I love Walker Brothers! If you're in the mood for a sweet breakfast, you can't go wrong here. It can be a bit of a wait but it's well worth it, and it's a great place to bring a crowd. Once I had a truly nasty crepe there (I... (more)

I've been going here since I was a little girl. Over 15 years! They haven't changed their menu. Always good old fashioned breakfast food. You have to try the German Apple pancakes. There's usually a bit of a wait on the... (more)

Try to sneak in here anytime other than a weekend if you want the most amazing, bigger-than-your-head dutch pancakes (the puffy, volcano-like kind) you've ever had. You're already blowing the diet, so go ahead and... (more)

This is one of those classic places you have to try at least once. The portions are huge and sinfully delicious. The place is always crowded. And the Dutch Baby pancakes are fantastic.... (more)

You cannot beat this pancake house - no cheap food like diners/IHOP - they cook your food fresh and from scratch. AMAZING. I've eaten there no less than 25 times, and every time the food is incredible. Recommended... (more)

This place is quite a drive from where I live, but I am up for the drive any time if it means getting some food from this place. The pancakes here are too die for; they are fluffy and sweet and just soo good. My favorite item... (more)

There's a place that makes a dutch baby pancake! I thought that anytime I wanted one I'd have to go to my mother's house. The apple pancake is also great, enough for probably 3 people. And don't forget the bacon-laden... (more)

Walker Bros is certainly a good place to go for brunch - it's popular and their food never disappoints at any of their locations. However, their popularity will keep you in line for at least a half hour, if not more, most... (more)

Walker Bros. has all the staples of a breakfast/brunch: eggs (scrambles, omelets, etc), pancakes (several types), waffles, crepes and much more. I am not a big fan of pancakes but I love the apple pancake (it's... (more)

This is our favorite place for breakfast. We had enjoyed breakfast there on countless occasions throughout many years. We've move to California and have yet to find a place that even comes close to the Eggs Benedict,... (more)
