GoodLife Cafe & Bakery

We were in the area and looking for a good breakfast, so we stopped in for a taste of the good life... The service was friendly and the Ingredients were fresh.. Overall the food was good. I had the prawn omlette and my wife had the apple cinnamon French toast, and we both enjoyed them, but the little things were the star of the show. The fresh jelly and sourdough bread along with the fresh squeezed orange juice was a great way to start the day before enjoying the coast.

What a great experience we had here. Delicious perfectly cooked burgers, salad and fries. Food was so good we ordered dinner to go since we were staying locally. Our server was great! I was concerned arriving at 1:30 that quality might not be great since they close at 2 😳...boy was I wrong! Indoor and outdoor seating and food made to go. A huge offering of desserts and baked items. The cinnamon muffin (gifted from our server 😍) was delish!

We come to this restaurant often for coffee and pastries, and it’s always a favorite. This time we decided to try breakfast as well, and wow, we were not disappointed. The food was absolutely delicious. All of the baked goods and pastries are amazing, the coffee is great, and the hot chocolate was rich and very tasty. Our group ordered a variety of items from the menu, and I got to try a bit of everything, every single dish was excellent. I ordered the meat lover omelet, and I loved it. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. We’ll definitely keep coming back!

One of the famous breakfast spots in Mendocino is Goodlife Bakery. It’s really good but always has big lines, so be ready to wait. Seating is inside and out, but it still gets super busy. The food was very good. Mocha is a winner and the toddy is a must. Their bakery items are a must try tooo nd cowboy cookie is a winner, savory danish is good, chocolate almond bar is awesome, and chocolate mousse was ok. For food items, the burrito was tasty, stir fry veggies were good, pumpkin curry bowl was good, and the tostada is good. Def a must try for breakfast

I could see moving to Mendocino to have this place in my town! Fabulous selection of pastries - I cannot confirm or deny that my wife and I got three each! 🤭 I suggested we could get different things and share but the idea of sharing was voted down. 🤨 There was lots of seating inside and outside. But the latte I had was heavenly, them smoothest I've ever had. I'm going to order some of the beans and I hope to replicate it on my own. Oh, and the staff was very friendly and patient (it took us forever to figure out what to order). I highly recommend this place. 👍
