Delicious cream tea best I've had even from Cornwall at Padstow sorry not picture I ate it before I realised 😂
Our waiting time’s for food is longer than normal. Breakfast was covered in black pepper. How ever the cafe did rectify by doing the Full English again, it is not stated on menus. They don’t do semi-skimmed milk only skimmed or full fat. However I am lactose tolerant so I can have skimmed but prefer Semi-Skimmed I personally wouldn’t return to this restaurant again. It might be worth a visit to other people. Just keep in mind to ask without seasoning on food. Price wise the portion was just right not too expensive.
Excellent food. Good value and right on the front with amazing view. Bit of a wait but worth it - all freshly prepared.
Fried eggs with egg whites slightly set, ketchup and mayonnaise cooked on the window in the sun, tea served 1 hour before breakfast - cold with breakfast, black pudding burnt, pieces served after drawing attention, an embarrassment, I definitely do not recommend this bistro
Such an excellent place. The location, food, service and menu are all excellent. Highly recommended.
Newly re-opened this spring, had a lovely Sunday roast, friendly service and nice view over the beach. Would recommend.
Had a wonderful dinner at the Good Life cafe bistro. Carl and his son Chris are superb chefs what a find this gem of a place is!
Didn't even bother to order anything. Popped in to get a quick bite. We're not greeted or even acknowledged by the staff. Zero atmosphere. After waiting a while we decided not to bother.
Recently reopened after new management took over, we popped in for lunch. The food was not great, the salad had no dressing and was very dry, the sandwiches were basic and the panini was not grilled or warm. The chips were nice though, as was the apple juice. It was served reasonably quickly, we would have been happy to wait a little longer for higher quality food though.The real issue is that being a cash only business (which was prominently sign posted at the front of the shop), we worked out that we had enough money to pay for what we ordered. When we received our bill however, a £3.40 gratuity had been added to it, meaning we needed to use an ATM to pay. There is no mention of this on the menus anywhere. When I raised this (after we had paid) the server was apologetic, saying that the menus should be replaced. But she also told me that the gratuity can be taken off. This is the wrong attitude, it should not be added. A gratuity is optional, based on the quality of the food and service. The customer decides what, if any, tip should be given. To add it on and then only reply that it can be taken off ONCE it is questioned is just not on.We will not be returning, at least for a good while. Maybe in a few months these points will have been addressed, otherwise two regular customers have moved on to greener pastures.
Visited this cafe two years ago and had a bad experience that I still remember. Just because we had three people and only ordered two drinks we got pressured by the staff.Edit: I wrote this review retrospectively when visiting another cafe that’s near seashore when I was travelling, where I got treated with respect as customers. And it just made me think that customer service could be good even at a sought after location. Being at a popular location doesn’t justify bad services.
What a wonderful cafe. We had the fabulous vegan breakfast. The food was delicious, service was superb and the atmosphere is lovely too, all with a great view of Weymouth. Thank you, we will be back.
Lovely lunch today at the good life cafe. All day breakfast for the hubby, plenty of it and v tasty. I had scrambled egg on granary toast. Lovely bread and plenty of egg and cooked just how I like it. All staff v welcoming whenever we pop in 👍🏻. Highly recommend a pit stop here 😊😋
The cafe is so cozy makes you feel at home, away from home. Service is so fast and the crew are friendly, welcoming each guest very warmly. The food is of top quality and surely made fresh. Overlooking the beach while having breakfast is the most serene breakfast one could ever have.
Great place; burger was one of the best I've had. Great service and they even did a surprise slice of cake for my grandsons birthday.
We've been visiting this place for years in it's previous incarnations (but not since Covid) and the new owners have definitely done this place proud. Very friendly and quick service, delicious coffee and food, gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options available, including milk alternatives and it's dog friendly. Parking is on street nearby & it has good views across to the beach. It should definitely be on your list to try!
The Good Life Cafe looks out onto Weymouth beach and is a prime position for a snack. It has wooden floors and panelling and has something of a past times charm.My wife had tea and a second, and I had a fish finger sandwich and coffee. The fish finger sandwich was very good.We both enjoyed our meals.
