The Good Life Eatery

I’ve been to The Good Life Eatery in Chelsea several times in the past and always had a good experience, so I expected the same from this branch. Unfortunately, it fell short in every aspect. I visited with a friend, and while the food was okay, it wasn’t anything special. I was told they have many Coeliac customers but it was clear that this location is not fully gluten-free. The service was lacking, and the atmosphere felt average at best. Overall, it was an underwhelming visit, and neither of us would return.

Great range of gluten free and dairy free options and good portion sizes

TL; DR: a good place for sweet things (and probably drinks). Maybe skip it for lunch, though. A little place near Marylebone serving breakfasty/lunchy food as well as drinks. I sampled the wild child bowl and the gluten-free waffle. The waffle was quite good. Innovative use of cashew/almond flower to make it gluten free, nice compote. The wild child bowl was quite disappointing. It wasn't very flavourful. Probably the first place I've been to in London where I felt compelled to add salt to my food. Regarding prices: I usually understand higher prices in small, independent eateries. I'm not one to complain about slightly steep prices if the food is good and I'm supporting a local business. HOWEVER, the bowl was £14, and a decently small portion. I don't think it was worth it considering I wasn't getting a particularly excellent culinary experience. The waffle was quite steep as well at £11, but I understand that - I've also bought cashew and almond flour in the shops. Overall, there are certainly better options in the area. Try a cookie or a waffle here. Try your main elsewhere.
