Richard Walker’s Pancake House

I really can’t give Richard Walker’s more than 2.5 stars, and that’s for the bacon.
Some people dine out for great food experiences. Some people dine out for great service experiences. Unfortunately, my last trip to Richard Walker’s produced neither.
We were seated right away and given coffee, so that’s +1.
Our order was taken right away, and it was pretty straight forward (2 orders of 49ers, 1 side bacon, 1 side sausage, 1 over medium egg.) It’s not hard to order here if you’ve been to any Walker Brothers or Original Pancake house and know what you like.
Other tables are seated around us. 2, maybe 3 others. They also order. We wait. And wait. And wait. And wait. Our coffee cups are refilled. We wait… are you getting the gist?
Our server comes out, and serves the tables who ordered after us, but had the same menu items (an order of 49ers for sure and maybe an omelette?) Okay… maybe the omelette was faster? I’m a little confused.
Then, he comes out again with what I’m convinced is our food. Nope, it goes to the 2^nd table who ordered after us. What gives?
I’m now on my 3RD cup of coffee and it’s been at least 30 minutes since we’ve ordered, the most basic of things on the menu.
When the food did finally come, there was no apology for the delay. I know 49ers are chewy thin delights, but these were definitely undercooked. They have never ever tasted like raw pancake batter.
I’m wholly convinced he forgot to put in our order, and finally realized when we TRIED to make eye contact with him the multiple times he walked by.
The bacon was good… but that’s to be expected. I’ll stick with Walker Brothers. Sadface.

Amazing food. However, sevice needs to be better. Never refilled my girlfriends coffee. never offered more drinks. This was are first time here and we’d definitely come back but only for the food.

This used to be a great place to eat; but sadly it has gone downhill.
. Spanish is spoken openly there. The pancakes were doughy. Doesn’t compare to other Richard Walkers.

Their hashbrowns and eggs are the best thing I have ever had. The man at the entrance that greets everyone is awesome. Now I admit I like IHOP but every night I crave these hashbrowns and eggs and RWPH is not open at night time and it makes me a little sad. I had to go bet my fix at IHOP.
I love the décor as well. Very classy place.

Not bad. Came here the past weekend for brunch with some friends. The plan was to go to Wildberry Café but we were hungry so we didn’t feel like waiting an hour and a half. Fortunately a buddy of mine I was with knew about this place because he’s from this area and grew up coming here. Therefore, we came here.
Fortunately, the wait was a lot less. Service was pretty good. Our waiter was nice. The manager even came out to our table after our meal to make sure everything was ok. On to the food.
I got the spinach omelet with cheese and had feta cheese added. The omelet tasted very different. Not nasty or anything but not like any other omelet I’ve had before. It was made fluffy like a pastry. Nice flavors made into the omelet. The pancakes were good. I can see this place being worthy of a return.

As per dual, excellent service and great brunch. Had the bacon waffle and scrambled eggs. Eggcellent!

This place is simply the best”””.
Starting with the coffee, then the quality of really
Everything is very noticeable. Everything is good I’ve had pancakes and waffles to the egg dishes, it’s all
Good. If you prefer your omelette on the grill or souffléd” all you have to do is ask.
The owner JIM came to our table and introduced himself and asked if everything was OK. This is a guy that really cares about his business and I appreciate that. This is my breakfast spot.

The only reason I didn’t give this place a five star rating in the first place was because I thought that such a rating should remain reserved for some impossibly perfect restaurant. Eventually, I realized I wasn’t giving out any five stars… and, who am I kidding… that bacon! so good!

We stop by here once in a while for breakfast and never really had a bad experience. They are extremely busy during the breakfast rush and could probably use a couple more staff members during those times, but other than that, everything is fine.
The food is nothing to write home about, but definitely not bad. I’ve tried their BLT sandwich, some omelettes, pancakes, etc. None of those were special enough to make me want to get them again so I just keep trying different things every time. The bloody mary is pretty good. It comes with a thick slice of fried bacon which was a nice touch.
If you’re in the area and are looking for a breakfast joint, try this place out!

We decided to make the hike to go to our ‘favorite breakfast place’ for our Anniversary. Something has changed with the coffee, I don’t think they’re freshly grinding their Kona coffee anymore! We ordered a blueberry muffin for our daughter. To our surprise, there was not ONE actual blueberry in it! I had to break it up for our 1.5 year old, to cool off. There was maybe 2 – 3 DRIED blueberries in the muffin. Come on people! Disgusting! If you can’t make fresh or real blueberry muffins then outsource your «baked goods» We will not be coming back…

Was there with some friends because we were in the area and wanted breakfast food… Wildberry had about an hour wait so we went there instead and I am glad we did! The menu had something for everyone in our table… some people wanted a skillet others pancakes and this place had just that! Prices were reasonable and the staff kept the coffee coming while we were there.
They have bacon pancakes and chocolate chip pancakes… cant go wrong with either of these two items. I will be back when I am in the area to try a few other things.

No seedless jams or jellies??? Lots of people have medical need for seedless products, how hard would it be to have some grape jelly available?

Great food. Fresh food. Group of 5 of us stopped by for breakfast. I’m not going to tell you what we had because it doesn’t matter. Everyone will have their own taste and favorites. This place has something for everyone. We are satisfied and will be back.
OK, fine! Eggs Benedict is what you should get :)

Intro/​Premise:
A good hearty breakfast place with a good variety of dishes that are hot and fresh.
Décor :
Nothing fancy in terms of look but it is very clean and organized. It can get extremely busy but it’s the marl of an excellent establishment.
Service:
This place is very friendly and organized. Couldn’t complain about anything here. The waiters have always been friendly and honest about their dishes along with their recommendations.
Food:
The food is always hot and fresh. There is nothing I could negatively comment about the food here. Their chocolate chip pancakes are well done and their skillets are out of this world. Only thing I wasn’t happy about was their turkey bacon. I found it rather sweet instead of savory.
Price:
The price is very fair for what you get. I have never looked at my bill once and gasped at the price.
Overall experience:
Overall, I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone. You’ll get excellent customer service, fair prices and fresh food. This place is a must.

Had some sunny side up eggs made to perfection with some buckwheat pancakes on the side. Fresh cup of Kona coffee and I was ready for anything today. Personal touch of Richard Walker himself coming to our table and asking us about our experience was extraordinary above and beyond service.
I highly recommend and encourage everyone visit Richard Walker’s Pancake House.

I used to come here as a kid all the time and just came back on a Sunday morning to see if it was as good as I remembered… Well, it totally is. They have basically everything you could want from a breakfast place and more. Recommendation: the German pancake, which is HUGE. Seriously.
It’s on the pricey side but it’s great quality. They have really good coffee and ingredients that are obviously not cheap. Customizing orders is expensive, however, if you want to add anything that is not included.

Went here this morning to grab a carryout for breakfast. I live in the area and so much ado about Wildberry, which I thought was nothing special. I ordered the bacon waffle, it was ok. just ok. the bacon waffles at the Original Pancake House are much better. you can taste the bacon more. I also got a blueberry waffle. My friend was disappointed because the menu description said blueberries cooked into the waffle then topped with a berry compote. but there were no blueberries in the waffle, just a plain waffle with berries to put on top. I’ll go back, because honestly there arent alot of options but I wouldn’t stand in line to get in here

On Mother’s Day we intended to try Wildberry for the first time, but when we got there it was over an hour wait (mind you an hour before closing). I opened up my trusty Unilocal app, did a search for brunch and pancakes, called Richard Walkers, and they said to come on over. Truthfully I wasn’t super excited to eat there, as I had something more exciting in mind, but we headed over because we were getting pretty hungry. Thankfully I read Phill C’s review about the restaurant being hidden in a strip mall, so that saved us time from getting lost. It took us about 10 minutes to get to our destination from Wildberry.
Truth? This totally random pick turned out to be a great success! We waited only about 15 minutes, they gave us menus while we waited, and we were led into an overflow room with lots of other families. We sat down and a server came over right away to give us menus and drinks, and before we knew it we ordered up, our food arrived, our coffee cups were consistently filled, and the service was amazing!
My kiddos ordered chocolate chippy pancakes off the kids menu and a side of thick bacon. Their pancakes were a completely decent size. Not too big, but not silver dollar. Just your average run of the mill size hotcake. Oh, they also ordered a side of fries, which I tried. The fries were super classic and took me back to my days of being a kid and hanging out at the country club with friends charging their parents’ spending accounts.
I ordered a sweet cherry Belgian waffle that was super sugary delicious. It’s exactly what I wanted. I also ordered a side of bacon, and it was so thick and rich I ended up sharing it with my mom. Note: 3 thick slices for $ 4.50.
My mom ordered the pecan waffle, and I tried my hubby’s veggie omelet. The omelet was light and fluffy and packed with veggies. I really wasn’t in the mood for eggs, but the next time we come here, I’d totally share this. It was ginormous! I truly think our entire table could have shared it.
Yes, the décor feels a little older in it’s style. However, the place was completely clean and efficient, and the owner was present throughout the entire experience. Good old fashioned pancake stop. Expect to leave really really full.
4 out of 5 stars, because it’s a bit pricey. You pay for quality here.

I love Richard Walker’s Pancake house! They always use high quality ingredients and the portions are gi-​normous! Yes, I said, gi-​normous!
They have this German pancake which isn’t like anything you’ve seen before. It’s worth trying at least once. See the pic!
The atmosphere is fun, and all the servers work together to make sure you want for nothing! Your water is always full, your coffee is always refilled, and everyone is friendly and welcoming. I know there is more than one location of this chain, but this one has a fantastic management team and is shows!
They will be expanding soon for more seating which is GREAT because waits on Saturday and Sundays can be long.
Definitely one of my favorite brunch places!

I’ve driven by Richard Walker’s all the time but had no idea it was a breakfast/​brunch spot until my sister told me. For whatever reason, their sign made me think it was a jewelry shop… maybe I’m crazy, who knows! Anyways, my friend and I stopped by for lunch the other day and were pleasantly surprised. Immediately upon walking in, the host was very friendly and told us to take a seat, gave us menus to peruse, and told us we would be seated shortly. He even asked how we were doing and how our holidays were. That’s more than what my boss asks me about my personal life LOL. Just like our host said, we were seated within 5 minutes or so.
As for the rest of our lunch, service was slower than anticipated but the food was pretty good. It literally took about a half hour for our food to arrive but that may be because they were fairly busy. As for the food, I was happy with my choice of the Best Western omelette which could have fed three people or if you’re like me and don’t share, then 3 meals! The omelet was fluffy and they were very generous with the ingredients inside the omelette (ham, choice of cheese, peppers, and onions). Overall Richard Walker’s has hearty breakfast foods but the service and ambiance are average.
