The Good Life Cafe was established in June 2009 by sisters Maggie Wiederin and Molly Luther with Molly's husband, Luke. We built the cafe with our own hands, a shoestring budget, and the support of our fantastic families. It is a labor of love and we hope you'll love it, too. Since the very beginning of our little cafe, we've strived to offer our guests innovative specials, outstanding service, an

d a modern take on classic American comfort food. Our staff is exceptionally caring and hard-working. We try our absolute best to make your feel comfortable and help you have a remarkable experience. As far as food goes, we try to make as much from scratch as we can, which means we have truly signature dishes you won't be able to find anywhere else. Try our Gouda Bacon Mac and Cheese, the Spice Walnut and Cranberry Salad, or the Wild Rice Hotdish – they are just a few of our most popular items. Oh...and we have a full bar, not necessarily typical for a "cafe" but we're not much for typical anyways.
