The Good Life Cafe - Carte

I had the best coffee, service and sandwich ever!! I see they even serve wonderful tap beers here also! It was hard to leave! Most certainly my new

Found this spot along our road trip route and stopped in for lunch. We were delighted by the menu options and enjoyed the well-crafted meals along with the atmosphere and friendly staff. I think this will become a must-visit when we are near Park Rapids! The Smorrbrod sandwich was phenomenal.

Really impressed me and my husband and honestly I consider us rather difficult to impress! Great atmosphere, great staff, diverse menu with not your run of the mill ingredients. The most impressive part was the prices! These are hard economic times with ridiculous prices but this Cafe has manged to keep their prices and portions very reasonable. Great job Good Life Cafe!

Have been coming here for years. They have grown from and flourished to a beautiful space with plenty of tables, but still may have a wait time on bust weekends! Yes, the food is that good. The vegan/ vegetarian offerings are quite good even as someone who does not follow those dietary restrictions. A surprising gem with a menu like you'd expect to see in a major metro but styled and located in a great Lakes area town. We will plan weekends with explicit plans on hitting up The Good Life for a lunch.

Metropolitan elegance in a small town. Stopped for a weekend lunch, upon walking into the restaurant the set up is impressive. Loved the booths with windows makes eating feel private yet spacious. Food and drink menu features locally sourced items and house created cocktails featuring items from local and nearby distilleries. It's important to note this is a Midwestern restaurant tailoring to Midwestern taste. If your reading any bad reviews that is a misunderstanding from the perspective of the reviewer. However our meal was beyond excellent. Fries are cooked to perfection. Food is HOT and hearty Midwest portions. Pictured is the Ruben with battered fries and the Bison Philly with sweet pot...

What a fun place for my mom and I to enjoy lunch on our visit to Park Rapids this Labor Day weekend. The GL cafe is located in the downtown among many shops and a yummy popcorn ice cream place right next to it. The place is cheery and warm inside. The service very fast and organized and friendly too. I ate a dish very new to me. I had sweet potato falafel wrapped in lefse served with a very fresh bunch of greens and veggies. There was also Tzatziki sauce on the falafel. My mom had walleye fish tacos and she liked them. It was a nice place to visit see lots of people. Even though we were hardly the only people there it was fairly crowded we could still talk and hear each other and I didn't fe... Voir le carte

We had lunch 8/28/21 at the Good Life restaurant and what a pleasure that we randomly dropped in on Molly our server and Ally the chef and I do mean chef, not cook. Molly shared some of her suggestions on their N/A beer selection which resulted in me trying and thoroughly enjoying a new favorite. The menu had very wide selection of interesting options. Our first choice was the cheese plate appetizer, glorious, what Ally has done with the selection of goat cheese and the added sauces, a must try. My wife ordered the black bean burger, switched out the chips for sweet potato fries and the accommodating sauce, another must try and one I would order the next time we visit. My selection was the s...

This place is a bit deceptive on the outside. It could just be a place to grab a not so special sandwich. A quick bite to eat as you shop the downtown. But it is so much more! Their cocktail list alone makes me wish it was just a thirty minute ride and not a 3 hour road trip. I had a fantastic raspberry sangria made with cabaret, peach schnapps, lemon lime soda, and pureed raspberries. I've found sangria can be hit and miss, but this one, albeit with out fruit floating in it, was a definite hit. (It was garnished with a slice of orange and a cherry. I then ordered the parparelle am I spelling that right? basically a wide fettuccine noodle in cream sauce, with roasted Brussel sprouts, chicken...

The Good Life Café is a gem that hits all areas. If you like Good drinks, great food, and a sleek, modern feel, this is the place. Food: Not a massive selection, but carefully crafted recipes that have their own niche to fill. Walleye BLT and Bison Philly are both excellent items and just several of the creative options. The potato chips are HOUSE MADE, and for once I look forward to having chips; a little salty but not too much. Drinks: A standard-sized but strong selection of wines, cocktails, and beers that satisfy that craving. 4 reds, 4 whites, and a lot of beer! The wine is also chilled at a nice 54-56 degrees (depending on how many times it was opened) that keeps it cool and refreshin... Voir le carte
