If you are looking for good fresh food this is it! Hubby had Cobb salad and I had Chinese Salad. Both were large, fresh, and served with hand made dressings! Their outside patio is large but NO dogs allowed. Highly recommend read more

The food and service are absolutely incredible. Here we've been to Mammoth several years in a row and eaten at quite a few restaurants in the area and this is by far our family's favorite. The kids love it, tons of great healthy food options and the service is awesome. The green salsa is epic. You've got to give it a try. Both dine in and to-go qualities are great. Well done guys! read more

I am a former resident of Mammoth Lakes and frequently visit many times a year . I was just visiting this 4th of July weekend and had breakfast with friends while I was in town . I have dined at Good Life many times over the years and have seen a decline in service and quality of the food ( my opinion ) Listen .... I understand that this restaurant is not 5 stars nor is it 3 stars ( my opinion) But the owners and its staff have one job and that job is to provide the absolute best service experience and food possible to the community. My hash brown potatoes were raw and my food was sub par . No effort , no passion . ( my opinion) The server couldn't be bothered with my comment of the raw food . The servers energy level was not good and I will definitely not be dining at the restaurant again when I travel up To Mammoth again this year. C- / D Rating read more

We stopped here for breakfast. We had a large party of 9 and were seated fairly quickly. Service was fast and the food was amazing. Best coffee I had in mammoth. read more

Best meal we had in Mammoth. Go for eggs Benedict. You won't be sorry. The atmosphere is pleasant with outdoor seating and good service.

Excellent food... the service is on point. I would recommend this place to everyone. First time on this area and we are so glad the we find this place... the family ambiance is great. read more

Shitiest service I've ever had. Will never come here again ‼‼ Use to have good food, not now‼ read more

We always enjoy the kind service and the down to earth atmosphere. The food is always good read more

Some good, some not so good, but overall not bad spot we stopped in at for lunch. The interior has almost a confusing atmosphere like when a restaurant changes hands multiple times but keeps all the vibes of each iteration. From figurines on sale, to old posters and gumball machines, the interior gives old diner and family restaurant vibes and the exterior patio gives mountain brewery vibes. The weather was nice so we sat outside. We each had omelettes, and apart from a thick slice of cheddar cheese being melted on top, they were both pretty good. I didn't care for the hash browns but my girlfriend loved them, so I'd say they're hit or miss. The Arnold Palmer I ordered was awful, with lemonade that was way too tart, and iced tea that had a sugarless berry flavor. Poorly blended and I barely drank any. Overall the food wasn't bad, it was filling, the service was decent and the location was ok, but it was still pricey at nearly $60 for two for lunch, and for that reason alone I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. read more

The service was really bad. I mean REALLY BAD. They are not friendly and act like they don't want to help you. The food was mediocre at best. The server who was female with long brown hair tied back in a pony tail who was prob in her 40s is the worst server I've ever had. I asked for some ranch and a knife and it never came. I asked again and again it never came. Then at the end of our meal she tried to charge me coffee but we never had coffee. Don't order the steak - unless you want it rubbery Don't order the French toast unless you want soggy mush Don't order the chicken fried steak unless you like your food flavorless Hope they get a good dose of humble pie bc just bc they are one of the few breakfast places doesn't mean they can be rude to customers read more

Good Life? Definitely not. 1 Turkey Sandwich 1 hot chocolate 1 coffee 1 slice of apple pie Total was $34 When I picture a $17 dollar turkey sandwich in my mind, it includes more than the basic mayo, lettuce, tomato, turkey. Very disappointed. read more

Solid service and reasonable prices. Chili Verdi omelette is fantastic!! Plenty parking and in central part of town.

The Service here is HORRENDOUS!!! the men that work there are SO rude and dismissive. Such a shame. I wanted to love it here but the wait staff are almost hostile. I felt so uncomfortable in there. read more

We came here during our trip to Mammoth. We ordered breakfast (eggs with pancakes) and a French dip sandwich. Both were very good. The restaurant has plenty of seating, both indoors and outdoors. Our server was also very nice and attentive. read more

My husband and I had breakfast here on a weekday morning. We each ordered two eggs I chose hash browns and he chose pancakes. We also each had coffee and he also had a large orange juice. The service was slow though the restaurant was not crowded. Servings were exceptionally large and Our food arrived cold. We had to go inside and ask for silverware. The bill was just over $50. Plus 3% for using a credit card. After tax and tip, we paid nearly $60. And there was an error on the bill, which they did correct. read more

Good mix of locals and tourists when we went to the Good Life Cafe. Ordered the Cobb Salad, Tuna Melt, and Chili Verde Omelette. The Cobb Salad for $19.95 was a decent size and was large enough to feed two. The tuna melt was pretty standard and came on large Texas toast sized slices of bread. The chili verse sauce was good, but the pork wasn't very flavorful and the hash browns were burnt. Overall the meal was decent and would be a place to go back to even though it was a little pricey. read more

Want here for lunch with my family. I ordered a garden salad that was just lettuce with sprouts on top. The honey mustard dressing was so bad I considered sending it back. My family enjoyed their lunches overall. Unfortunately the staff was poor. Our server barely spoke to us and was unfriendly. He made several mistakes with our orders and seemed bothered if we asked him to fix it. I definitely won't be coming back. read more

Trying to be nice but I have to be honest. The the only thing more disappointing than the food is the service. We were unfortunate in getting the rudest lady as our server. It was either she was having a bad day or she didn't like Asians or she hates her job. The portions are small and the prices are on the pricey side given the quality of food we were served. I suggest going to another breakfast place because eating here is like eating at a dennys wannabe but worse. the service was so unpleasant it made our first day in mammoth less to be desired. read more

Lunch was good! I enjoyed our food. We had Machaca Burrito and Chili Verde Enchiladas and fries as an appetizer. I had a good time plus we finished our food. Place feels like homey, service is fast, bathroom is clean. read more

Food was actually quite good, with good portions. Staff was nice when entering..just thought they could be a bit more friendlier. read more

Busy lil breakfast/lunch spot nestled in a strip mall that is currently undergoing renovations. Quickly seated, it was cramped inside but not terribly so where we had any issues getting in and out of our table. Service was pretty good for as busy as it was. Our food also came out pretty quickly. As for the food, it was pricey for the portion size and mediocre in quality/taste. I ordered the vegan scramble which actually had no egg substitutes, just sauteed veggies and came with corn tortillas. The entree virtually had no flavor and left me hungry still. My friends seemed to enjoy their entrees but didn't compliment them. read more

Good Life? Terrible veggie burger, and raw fries. Dropped in because we didn't want to eat a burger in the Village and like supporting more local businesses. I was jonesing for The Breakfast Club but decided to try a place we hadn't been before. Only one other customer in the place for lunch when we arrived. Order was taken quickly. And then, we waited and waited and waited. After about a half hour our food finally came out looking delicious. My garden burger, however, was crisped into a slab of cardboard, the wheat bun toasted until it was more like a charred piece of wood and the fries were barely thawed from the freezer. All I can imagine is that the cook was on vacation or otherwise distracted. I really wanted to like the place. Looks like a great local's spot with a deep breakfast menu. Sadly, today's lunch ruined me for a return. Hopefully, this was just a spring time anomaly. read more

This was on my list to visit the last time I was in Mammoth and today, I had the opportunity. I've been to The Warming Hut & The Stove and I feel the Good Life is better than both of them. First off, they are located in the same shopping center as Harmony Brazilian BBQ. So on a weekend, parking is usually not an issue, unless you come on a long holiday weekend then all bets are off. Walked in on a Saturday around 12:30pm and it was pretty empty by this time. Got seated and decided to try the Chile verde breakfast burrito. Because this breakfast burrito came sauced up with Chile verde sauce and melted cheese on top, it added a new dimension to this classic breakfast item. My first bit blew me away. Man the verde sauce was really tasty and it's not too tart and was well balanced. My only issue was that the restaurant was so warm that after eating this, I started sweating so much that it kind of ruined my appetite. The sauce is spicy and will make your head sweat. But I still think it's tolerable. Overall, I think I will put this as my top choice for breakfast/lunch place. I think I will try their enchiladas next. read more

The carne asada was great! Wife had the burger and enjoyed it. Lots of construction in the parking lot, but don't let that stop you from coming in and having a great meal with great service!! read more

Average restaurant but 1 extra star for fair price. It's a welcoming place for both visitors and locals. I was in bit of a rush, with Tesla charging across the street, and was able to finish the meal with time to spare. read more

Variety menu with great food! Family owned with friendly service. We come back here every time we're in Mammoth.

This place is not what it used to be, we've gone here for 30+ years. I don't think the owners are the same as they were back in the day. My kids and I were having breakfast a few days ago, and my daughter found a shard of glass in her orange juice. It was very frightening. She pulled it out of the back of her mouth and almost swallowed it!! when we told the waitress, she proceeded to make everything worse, instead of remaining calm, she freaked out, insisted on calling the paramedics, even though as the mother of the child who almost swallowed the glass, I said that was not necessary as she was fine. Then instead of calmly, apologizing, and trying to find the source of the broken glass in their kitchen, she proceeded to spend the rest of the time defensively arguing with me, insisting that it wasn't glass it was plastic!! It was the most bizarre thing, whether it was glass or plastic it was a very sharp shard that could have seriously injured someone if ingested. At the end of this whole ordeal and after the paramedics came and left agreeing that no medical treatment was needed, she proceeded to walk up to the table and say that customers were complaining we were too loud and we needed to leave the restaurant!!! can you imagine!!? I was in shock, needless to say the entire restaurant was empty and there were two customers in the back of the restaurant and literally no one else. The heart of the matter here is my child almost swallowed glass, not all of the distractions this woman was trying to introduce to the situation. I would never set foot in this restaurant again. The the waitress, I believe her name was Lydia, should not be in the service industry PERIOD. read more

Stopped here on our way down from Mammoth. Super friendly staff and the food came out quickly. Nice warm meal after a long day in the snow. Vegan friend approved! read more

Great breakfast Cafe. We ordered the Machaca Rancheros and the Chile Verde Breakfast Burrito. Machaca Rancheros was made with scrambled eggs the shredded beef. Corn tortilla was on the bottom soaking up all the juicy flavors. It was served with refried beans which were very tasty. Overall, the dish was excellent. The Chili Verde was very flavorful. The green sauce had the proper amount of tomatilla. The pork was super tender. This dish was excellentand I would order this again. read more

Been here numerous times. It never disappoints. From their eggs Benedict to their tuna melt. Not to mention their fried zuchinnni.

Food was good but unfortunately service was not. We were still eating and she had us pay. Not only that but as we finished our food, she came back and rushed us out. They had a ton of empty tables and it wasn't busy at all. Boo on you Sandra C, not a good life place to eat after all read more

Good life what a joke! Waiting for them to open for breakfast and asking if we could be sat outside (which was COMPLETELY set up and ready to go for service) I was told they weren't sitting outside right now because I asked to be seated with our service dog! I get it they have notices EVERYWHERE that they are anti-dog, no pets, no emotional support animals, no small dogs but I presented with having an ACTUAL service dog and opted to sit outside since they were so negative apparently about having animals anywhere near they're establishment. Right as we were leaving they seated a family outside! So thanks for LYING to my face and denying access to LEGITIMATE service dogs like my husband's! I do NOT recommend this place with or without a service animal! read more
