Forage for wild plants in the rugged wilderness of Ireland and cook for otherworldly inhabitants...
Rewilding starts within. Follow Aoife on their journey to reconnect with their past, nature, and ultimately themself. Explore the land, forage for wild plants, craft bespoke dishes, and delight otherworldly clientele. Along the way, Aoife will learn about the plants around them, the folklore told in the area, and their family's past.
Created in Ireland with love, Good Folk Cafe is inspired by our own experiences of life in Ireland and the tales that have been shared with us.
Explore beautiful landscapes
Explore a rugged and wild landscape…
Of white roads winding by the edge
Of bare, untamèd land,
Where dry stone wall or ragged hedge
Runs wide on either hand.
Learn about real plants
Forage plants along the way. Manage the space in your bag and find the perfect plants for your dish!
Learn about the real wild plants of Ireland as you accumulate knowledge in and out of the game.
Cook for otherworldly beings
Cook beautiful meals with the bounty you've gathered on your trails. Take your time assembling bespoke dishes for your mysterious customers.
Reconnect & Rewild
Uncover the past as you try to connect with your otherworldly neighbours who don’t speak or act the way humans do.
Live a simple life in the wilderness. Repair abandoned equipment and decorate your wild camp.
Meet the locals, listen to their stories, learn from their tales, and enjoy their company when they visit Aoife for a cuppa.
Relax and seek out stillness in nature.
Made with love in Ireland.

Cold, cold this thousand years—yet still
On many a time-stained page
Your pride, your truth, your dauntless will,
Burn on from age to age.
And still around the fires of peat
Live on the ancient days;
There still do living lips repeat
The old and deathless lays.
